VICTIM OF PLOT,
NEWBERRY SAYS
Indicted Senator Declares
Unlimited Money Used to
Smirch His Name.

Senator Truman H. Newberry. of
Michigan. who is under indictment
on a charge of violation of the cor
rupt practices act in connection
with his recent election to the SEN
ate over Henry Ford. issued a
statement yesterday denying COM
pletely all of the charges against
him.
An echo to the indictment of
Senator Newberry was heard in the
Senate yesterday when Senator
Moses, of New Hampshire. intro
duced a resolution calling for the
appointment of joint Congress

to investigate the election laws of
Southern States where the vote is
denied the negro. Senator Moses
resolution calls for a report not
later than July l. 1920.
Senator Newberry. it is under
stood. will leave soon for Grand
Rapids. Mich. His statement is as
follows:
81 do not propose to rest under
the charges that my seat was OBJ
tanned by bribery and corruption.
Such charges are lies made out of
whole cloth, and l believe the
country will realize the political
animus inspiring them. Certainly
the people of Michigan understand
the source which prompted this
entire campaign against me. 1 pro-
pose to expose that source, to show
the malignity behind it as well as
the use OF unlimited money in the
attempt to cast a cloud upon my
good name and that of my sup
porters.
Because of the necessity of con-
sidering the peace treaty and the
Senate unfortunately did not have
time to devote itself to the inves-
! tigation, which would have re-
suited in my vindication and in the
confirmation of my election.
Il have again requested the Senate
Committee on Privileges and Elections
to pass the resolution and proceed
to the investigation Immediately. /
am assured this will be DONE
In commenting on his resolution to-
day Senator Moses declared he was

cession of political virtue at Grand

Senate Decree
OnEnd Of War
Peace Declaration Likely to
Be Made by Committee
Tomorrow.

The surprise manifested by Senators
yesterday over the failure Of Presi-
dent Wilson to mention the peace
treaty in his message to Congress
gave way to action last night, when
Senator Lodge. chairman of the For
eign Relations Committee, conferred
with other members Of that body. and
later announced that the committee
would hold a meeting Thursday.
At that time it is expected that the
will report out a Joint
resolution. declaring the war to be at
an end.
Republican Senators yesterday dis
cussed this proposal with House lead
ers. and the result of their conference,
was the decision to push the resolu-
ton with all haste. Senator Moses,
Of New Hampshire. talked the matter
over with Representative Campbell. of
Kansas. chairman of the House Com
mittee on Rules. and it is believed
the House will vote in favor of such a
resolution.
Senators Moses and Fall were in
with Senator Lodge last
night. and the only thing that can
prevent the meeting OF the Foreign
Relations Committee Thursday is the
absence of some of its members.
Several of the Republican members
are now out of Washington.
Until Senator Lodge and his COL

The Presidents failure to mention

spokesmen in the Senate to learn

Railroad Administration Is
sues Order to Regional
Directors to Eliminate
Passenger Service When
ever Possible.
FOREIGN SHIPS ALSO
HIT BY LATEST MOVE
Supplies Denied Their Bum
kers - Mine Production
Drops to 40 Per Cent of
Normal - Theaters, Yet
Unaffected.

The government frightened its grip
on the coal situation yesterday in
three objections, reaching to the rail-
roads, the inland waterways and to
foreign shipping.
The most important of the steps an
nounced to make the coal supply meet
the minimum needs Of the nation
until the operators can increase pro-
duction was the giving of authorize
tion to regional railroad directors to
discontinue passenger trains where
they can be best spared. This an
nouncement was made by Director
General Hines in the following state
ment:
with a view to further conserva
ton of coal by the Railroad Admin
istration. regional directors have been
instructed to review the situation
carefully and have been authorized
to eliminate passenger trains which
can be spared with the least incon-
venience to the Passenger public"
The Railroad Administration also
announced that coal for consump-
tion on the inland waterways would
henceforth be put on the same basis
as coal on railroads.
Won't CoaI Foreign ships.
The third announcement of the
governments policy in holding down
the use OF coal was that on and after
midnight on December 5 the sup
plying of coal to foreign ships IN
American ports would be stopped.
This announcement means that the
regional directors who have been
exercising their discretion in per-
mitting foreign ships to secure
bunker coal will no lon@er be al
lowed to do SO.
Coal production yesterday was
40 per cent of normal. according to
the government reports from the op-
Grating fields. This is a slump as
compared to daily productions last
week. which almost reached so per
cent of normal.
Coal operators said yesterday that
they expected that the first two U.
three days of this week would show
slump, due to the breaking up of
the conference between the opera
tors and the miners, and to the fact
that Saturday was payday in many
of the fields.
Movie Men Reassured.
A delegation of moving picture men,
representing the National Association
of the Motion Picture Industry, called
today upon Director General Hines
at the Railroad Administration to as
certain what effect DIR. Garfield S
statement would have on the movies
The motion picture men were tod
that there is no intention of the gov
ernment. at this juncture at least.
to call for the closing of movies or
the theaters.
1t was said that DR.. Garfield's
statement may be followed up by an
other order il the coal situation calls
for more stringent measures. But
SO far, according to government Off
cials, there is no need for ''heatless
Mondays" or "lightless nights" for
the nation at large.

MEXICAN CRISIS
PLACED BEFORE
SENATE TODAY
Fall Asserts Proof Exists
That Carranza Aids
Bolsheviki Here.
NO WORD ON JENKINS
Committee Has Data on Un-
revealed Outrages To-
ward Americans.

The Mexican situation will be
brought to the attention Of the Sen
ate today by Senator Fall. of New
Mexico, who said last night that he
would introduce a resolution but that
1t would not ''go so far as to urge
armed Intervention"
Senator Fall is chairman of the spe-
cial Senate subcommittee which has
been investigating the Mexican situa-
ton and conducting hearings along
the border. He asserts that the sub
committee Is in possession of 'abso-
lutte evidence to the effect that the
Carranza government had been aiding
in the spr. ad of /. w. W. and Boil
shevik propaganda in the United
States. and that much Of this propa-
ganda was smuggied over the bor-
der"
Proof of More Outrages.
Pending developments in the case of
William o. Jenkins, American Con-
sular Agent. who is now under i'm
prisonment at Puebla. Mexico, the
special subcommittee is not expected
TO release any Of the mass of evidence
it collected along the border. 1t has
in its possession. however. proof OF
innumerable outrages against Ameri-
can citizens in Mexico. which have not
yet been made public, and other ma
terial showing the absolute disregard
the Mexican government has exhibited
toward American citizens and their
property rights.
Senator Fall said that the subcom-
mittee was co operating with the State
Department in the present situation.
and he expects developments of per-
haps a startling character within the
next few days.
Mexican Embassy Hopeful
The State Department still awaits
the reply of Carranza. and Il he per-
sists in keeping Jenkins In the peni-
tentiary the whole matter may be sent
to Congress for action. Meantime the
department is preparing to answer
with data any calls for information
by Congress.
Neither the State Department nor
the Mexican Embassy had any in
formation yesterday which would
shed any new light on the possible
attitude of Carranza. At the en-
bassy the substance of opinion was
the hope for an amicable settlement
of the matter. The inference from
this was that in the opinion of those
most directly concerned. Carranza
might, after a big display Of indiffer-
ence and hravado to the American
requests. yield and order the release
OF Jenkins.
One possibility, however. must be
taken into account in this considera-
sion II Is likely, it Is admitted here,
that Carranza may 'overstep the
line" because of his belief that the
illness of the President would prevent
any aggressive policy by the admins
tration.
