They brought with them Roman
lawyer, named Tertullus. whose
knowledge of Roman law and whose
gkillful pleading would. they hoped

was a dangerous character-a sort OF

There was no jurors. Tertullus made
his charges and confirmed them by

respecting the tumult in the temple

was charged with being a ringleader
of a sect called Nazarenes; and the
claim was made shat he had caused

New York, August 24.-(Soecial.)-A ma

questioned business acumen, who is now
largely upon war orders for it's success.
surprised me somewhat this morning by
boldly declaring himself eager to see
Muscle Shoals, Ala, get the $4,000 600
nitrate plant authorized by recent act
of Congress. For business reasons he
declined to let his name be used.
Although 1 am interested in war mu-
nitions," he said, Il want to tell you
that the real that is. the most lasting
benefits from such a plant, will come
from the manufacture Of nitrates in
times of peace. 1 mean nitrates for fer
tilizer purpose. 1 know that country
down there, and some of the people of
that country know me. by the way. That
immense inland undeveloped water power
should be developed and used for this
very purpose
Asked If he had any personal interest
In the matter outside Of that which any
man might feel, he said: Not at pres
emit" He went on, however to show
that all the materials to be put into the
products of the plant. are more Access
sible from Muscle Shoals than else
where. and felt that great mistake
would be made II the Tennessee river
were not used for this purpose.
1t is true that others here favor the
Alabama location, and that the matter is
by no means one Of no interest to New
Workers. Letters to the New York press
are doing good work, and this kind OF
pulling should be kept up

not going to stand any more the buying
OF elections" Senator Owen continued.
The people are demanding this law be-
cause the existing statute does not pro-
tect them. Reports of campaign con-
tributions and expenditures sent to the
secretary of the Senate are ridiculous.
They do not include money expended
for elections. 1 know that to be an
absolute fact.
Republicans in the Senate under
cover of debate may carry on a fill
buster against this bill until after the
election, but they cannot fool the Amer
lean people as to their motives"
Senator Penrose said the republicans
would be willing to stay here until the
bill could be perfected, If necessary
but that would take a long time and
1T would be better to wait until De-
cember.
Besides this threatened delay in adj
journment. another legislative tangle
developed today over the revenue bill
and the general deficiency appropria-
ton bills, which have not yet been re-
ported to the House. Republican Sen
ate leaders notified the democrats that
they would not permit the revenue bill
10 reacn d vote until the deficiency ap-
preparation had been disposed of by
both houses. The democrats sought to
get in touch with Representative Fitz-
gerald, chairman of the House appropri-
atoms committee, which has the de.
ficiency bill still under lock and key
but found he was out of town and
would not be here tomorrow. Demo-
cratic leaders said tonight, however
they were hopeful that they could gel
