British government would resent any
such representations Mrs. eAgnes New

For one government to arraign the
course of Justice in another government
is one Of the most insulting things a
government can do" said Senator Will

Senator Vardaman, in sympathy with
the resolution, urged Senator MARITIME
to eliminate from it the criticism in
the preamble of the British court, which
refers to Easements hearing as "a
hasty, so-called trial"
Senator MARITIME finally offered new
resolution which would request the

Senior Ancona asserts that the re-

circles which have fabricated kilograms
announcing to Europe that the hidden
hand of Germany directed Mexican for

the minister, has several times and
