land his mutlneers when the ship put
into Aiemeria, Spain, but the Spanish
authorities refused to take them in
charge, so they were brought on to
America.
VIM. F. Dreer, of Philadelphia, one of
the passengers, said that he had an
amusing time getting out of Germany.
"Once a German soldier held US up y
said Mr. Dreer, "and he was so excited
that he discharged mis- musket over our
heads and then took to his heels in
terror.
"On another occasion the captain OF
a squad of German soldiers stopped my
party and after looking at our pass
ports upside down said that they were no
coed and that we could proceed no
further. Finally we persuaded him to
look at them right side up which he did

CALLS BILL A BETRAYAL
Senator Reed Continues Attack on
CLAYTON Antitrust Measure.

WASHINGTON. Sept. Ex-senator Reed,
of Missouri today in the Senate declared
that the Clayton antitrust bill as
drafted by the conferees is a betrayal of
the Democratic party OF the country.
The Senator first took up the action
of the conferees on the section of the
bill which prohibits tying or exclusive
contracts. He said:
"Che section as reported by the con-
ferecs does not provide that such con-
tract in itself shall be void because II
is against public policy. 1t merely pro-
vides that the contract shall be void in
case It tends substantially to lessen COM
petition"
Senator Reed insisted that this provi-
sion would be ineffective and would re-
suit in opening up a new he!d OF litlsa-
ton. The Senator also pointed out that
the penalty clause attached to this sec
tion in both Senate and House had been
eliminated by the conferees.
