MARSHALL INSERTS A JOKER
IN THE ANTITRUST BILL
Its Effect Would Be to Stop Shipments of Liquor
Into Dry States-Senate Adopts it
Without Debate

amendment was when a Senate y age
brought IL to his desk from Nice-Pres-
dent Marshall. who had prepared it and
sent II to Mr.. Chiffon.
The Senator made one or two changes
In the language which did not modify the
amendment in any important respect and
returned It to the Vice-President. who
sent IT back to Mr.. Chiffon with his APP
proval. The Senator then offered IL and
IL was adopted without debate or question
Senator Chiffon admitted that he did not
know what the Vice-President had In
mind when he sent the amendment to him.
Now some OF the Senators are curious
to know whether the vice President was
serious in his effort TO institute legislation
or whether IL was one OF his daily jokes.
II is his habit in the course of the pro-
Ceedings when the debate gets dull and
uninterestlng to write notes to Senators
and send them to their desks. But most
Of them are intended 10 be humorous and
not few of them have been preserved
as literary curiosities.
His Suggestion 10 MARITIME.
For example. Senator MARITIME received
Al amendment which the Nice-Fresdent
wrote yesterday and sent to the New
Jersey Senator while the Senate was
considering an amendment OF Senator
Overman to the currency bill, which pro-
vides that State banks and trust com
pauies issuing emergency notes under the
Ndrich-Nreeland act should loan them
10 cotton producers at a rate not exceed
ing & per cent. The amendment which
the Nice-presdcnt suggested. but which
Mr. MARITIME did not introduce was as fol-
lows:
And further that ghe notes to he
issued by the banks in the State OF
New Jersey shall be loaned by said
banks as far as practicable to the
makers OF applejack. at not TO ex-
ceed 5le per cent. per annum.
