WILSON WINS IN
bRANDE|S CASE
BY PARTISAN VOTE
COMMITTEE WILL RECOMMEND
TO THE SENATE THAT NOM
NATION be CONFIRMED.

Washington. d. c., May "a. The
senate Judiciary committee voted 10 to
today to report favorably to the sen.
ate the nomination Of Louis D. Bran.
deis to be associate Justice Of the
supreme court. It was a strict party
vote.
The action Of the committee remain.
ed In doubt up to the time the vote was
taken. Senator Shields, democrat Of
Tennessee arrived In the capital today
Just IN time to cast the deciding vote
Senator Cummins Of Iowa was the
only member OF the committee not
present. His vote, however, Yves 70.
corded against confirmation.
The vote Is one OF the final steps In
a contest which started AZ soon as the
nomination was sent to the senate By
President Wilson January 28. Weeks
were spent by a subcommittee taking
testimony regarding charges against
the nominee, formulated by a commit.
tee of citizens Of Boston. The sub.
committee recommended confirmation
BY a strict party vote of three to two.
The charge against Mr.. Brandeis
was unethical conduct in relation to
several clients and working under
cover" President A. Lawrence Low.
ell of Harvard headed the committee
Of citizens organized to fight confirma,
ton. William H. Taft, Simeon II. Bald
win, Francis Rawle, Joseph H. Choate
Elihu Root. Moorfield Storey and Peter
w. Meldrim, each former president
of the American Bar association, also
opposed confirmation.
Charles w. Eliot, president emeritus
of Harvard, only few days ago wrote
letter to the committee strongly urg
ing confirmation; Secretary of War
Baker appeared on the witness stand
to ask for confirmation on the basis OF
Mr.. Brandeis' efforts to establish social
Justice and President Wilson recently
wrote personal letter to Chairman
Culberson urging confirmation.

OF
VILLA ARE SPARED
GENERAL MISERY
AMERICANS FIND THAT BANDIT
HAS BEEN CONSIDERABLE OF
HIS FRIENDS.

Field headquarters, May 17.-By mo-
tor truck to Columbus, N. M, May "a.
"A marked difference between Willis
ia strongholds and other towns IN
southern Chihuahua was reported to-
day by officers who have made the
campaigns close on Villas trail.
In the solid villista districts there
were evidences of prosperity. The
people there declared that Villa pro-
tected them, taking what he needed
from them with considerable sense Of
discrimination. The towns of mixed
politics, peopled by both Villa and
Carranza partisans, were all on the
verge Of misery. The vilistas in such
places reported that Villa was in the
habit Of protecting them but of plum
dering the Carranzista sympathizers.
They complained that Carranza COM
mands plundered both Vilistas and
Carranzistas without discrimination,
always taking care. however, to an
nounce they were selling property
"in the name of the government" Car
ranzista sympathizers complained that
petty officers exercised altogether too
wide a latitude in securing supplies
on the promises OF the government to
repay.

.FIL|BUs7ER IS CONTINUED
Iowa and Illinois Senators Keep Up
Their Fight Against Passage OF
River and HarbOrs Bill.

Washington, D. c., May "a. --Consid-
Grafton of committee amendments to
the rivers and harbors appropriation
bill was completed by the senate yes
terday after two weeks of debate. The
only important change made has been
the restoration of 100000 appropria-
tion for deepening East river, New
York, which was put into the bill by
the house at the request of the presi-
dent and stricken out by the senate
committee.
Many senators have amendments
and Senators Kenyon and Sherman
have shown no signs of abandoning
their filibuster, so there is no saying
when final vote on the bill will be
reached. Opposition to the measure
was stimulated yesterday by an an,
nouncement by Senator Taggart, demo
crat that he would not vote for 1t un-
less the $43 100000 total was reduced
by fifteen or twenty millions.
