senator c. w. Whitmorc, of Ottumwa.
defied the state senate today to compel
him to vote on the Fulton bill and when
the noon adjournment was taken, was
still refusing to vote.
The senate refused to excuse him

representation on the joint retrench-

Whitmore explained that as chair
man of the retrenchment committee, he
considered himself personally interest
ed and claimed further exemption from
voting as the constitution gives sena-
tors the right 10 vote as they see fit.
After adjournment, Senator Whitmore
said he would permit himself to be
cited for contempt of the senate before
he would cast a ballot on the Fulton
bill.
The house passed the LOckin bin to

Washington. d. c.. Feb. 14.-Fcder-
al Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis

house Of representatives today by Rep
resentative Welty, Democrat, of Ohio,
who charged him with high crimes
and misdemeanor" III connection with
his accepting IA position as supreme
arbiter in baseball at Il salary of $42,-
800 a year.
Should the house decide to institute
proceedings against Judge Lands on
the basis Of the Welty charge. a for
nal trial before the bar of the house
will be held and Il decision rendered.
Mr.. Welty did not introduce reso-
luton proposing impeachment. as is
the usual proceeding in such mat
ter. Instead he rose to "a question
of high personal privilege" and an
n0unced that he 'impeached" the
judge. Without debate the matter
was referred to a judiciary committee
for investigation and report. There
were few scattering "noes."
Five Charges Made.
Impeachment is proposed by Wclty
on the basis of five specific charges:
FIRST. neglect of official duties for
another gainful occupation not con-
nrctal Herewith
Second. for using his office as dis
trict judge of the United States to
settle dispute which might come into
his court as provided by the law of
tie Cnited States.
Third, for lobbying before the
legislatures of several states to
procure the passage of state laws

district judge of the United States.
Fourth. accepting the position as
chief abriter of the disputes in base
ball for a salary Of $4,000 while
attempting to discharge his duties
as district judge of the United
States.
Fifth, for injuring the national
sport of baseball by permitting the
use Of his office as Judge of the

sion will prevail that gambling and
other illegal acts in base ball will
not be published in open forum as
