Stone Attitude Condemned.
Adoption Of the resolution asking for
the information came at the close Of a
day of solemn debate which reached a
climax with, republican senators join
ing democrats in condemning the atti-
tude of Senator Stone, chairman Of the
foreign relations committee, who de-
clared the story Of the plot was given
out by the government to affect public
opinion, and insisted upon asking the
president whether the information was
received from the representative OF
any belligerent nation.
Senator Fall, republican. said he did
not wonder that the president decided
to reach public opinion thru the press
in view of the attitude of members of
the senate who ought to be his advis-
ors.
The subject came up soon after the
senate assembled and engrossed atten-
ton nearly all day in spite of the mass
of legislation awaiting action. Sena-s

pressed amazement at the story and
declared if it We're true the senate

Later word of activity by exports
caused a further advance. The effect
