BOTH SIDES GIVEN MORE TIME TO GET
 EVIDENCE IN CONTEST
House Passes Resolution Regarding Delegate Election Contest, Grigsby Gets the Last
 Say

SEATTLE, July BOA Post-Intel- ligencer special from Washington says Representative Albert H. Vestal of Indiana introduced resolution Monday, which passed the House, giving Judge Wickersham 40 days from yesterday to introduce evidence in his contest against Delegate George. B. Grigsby, giving Delegate Grigsby 40 days thereafter to intro duce evidence and Judge Wicker sham then gets ten days in which to introduce rebuttal testimony. The resolution gives him authority to ex- anime 40 soldiers to be assembled at Valdez. The original revolution com peIIed the soldiers to testify as to how they voted Delegate Grigsby fought this, and he was sustained by the committee, therefore the option of testifying as to how they voted will remain with the soldiers. It was held that Congress had no pow CT to compel the soldiers to testify as to whom they voted for.
 This resolution conforms to the general rules regulating contested election cases in the House. spe' cial resolution was necessary TOT the reason that the contest is against the election of tho late Delegate Charles A. SulZer, who died anfi MT. Grigsby was elected to succeed him. This made it necessary to pro vide a special rule requiring the contestant to service notice upon MT Grigsby and to permit the latter to tako fpctimOuy

Passes a Motion Presented By the Socialists to Provide Tribunal for
 Probing the War
MAY, CALL EX-KAISER
Purpose of the Tribunal Will Be to Fix Responsi- biIity of War and De-
 termine Guilt

BERLIN, July o.-(Assoclated Press)-The German National As sembly at Weimar has passed mo ton presented by the Socialist mem bers to hasten preparation of bill establishing a State Tribunal to in- vestigate the cause of the war, and the guilt of those responsible for the war.
 1t is claimed there is a possibility of leading German generals being haled before the proposed Court of Inquiry, and the ex-kaiser himself may be called to give evidence.
 One of the reasons for haste, ac- cording to unofficial reports heard here. is said to be a desire on the part of Germany to probe war causes before an Allied tribunal might be convened to summon the ex-Kaiser before it.
 The statement made by Matthias Erzberger to the National Assembly that both France and England had offered peace to Germany, which was refused. and that President Wilson, through the Pope, endeavOred to stop the war on several occasions, the eff forts being spurned by Germany. is believed to have largely influenced the action of the German National Assembly. The belief of the people that Germany was refused peace and had no recourse but to continue the war, Is now said to be strongly behind the sentiment to secure trial of the former German war lords.
