AGAINST
EARLY ELECTION
in GREAT BRITAIN
fBy Tho Associated Press,

London. Oct. 12.-Odds Of nearly
TWO to. one against an election before
h end of the yea are being accept
ed in the ,London insurance marke.
Notwithstanding the positive asser-
lions in the press and in political cir
cles that an appeal to the country be-
fore Christmas is inevitable. The dis
crepancy thus manifested Is signifi-
cant Of the complete uncertainty sur
rounding the political situation.
The morning newspapers again give
over their chief columns to discuss
slons. predictions and supposed revel-
aticns. Prime Minister Lloyd Gcorge's
friends continue to insist that he will
not resign. while others assert with
equal confidence that he has deter
mined to ask the country for a vote
of confidence at the polls and that his
speech at Manchester Saturday will
lie the first gun fired in the great
electoral campaign.
, There H. general concurrence on one
point, namely. that the crisis has bcen
brought about by the restiveness OF
the rank and file Of the conservatives,
are tired alike Of the coalition
and Lloyd Georges lead
ersh1p aud are Eager to get back to
party lines.
Amidst the many uncertainties ono
thing is ~certain-that tho next few
days will supply the public with more
excitement concerning domestic poll
tics than it has enjoyed since the out
break OF the world war.
One Of the interesting features
when an election is declared will be
the number of women seeking the
ltmelight Of parliamentary life. The
present women m lady
Aston and Mrs. Margaret wintring-
ham, are understood to desire re-elec-
ton, and nearly a score of others are

HUGHES SEES PLOT
AGAINST NEWBERRY
Continued from First Page.

stated that upon such Interpretation the
conviction of Senator Newbcrry had been
asked and obtained.
OF the six counts, or charges In the
Newberry indictment Mr.. Hughes said
that the fifth charged conspiracy to
commit a great many offenses consisting
of giving money and things of value to
persons to vote for Senator Newberry
and of giving variable considerations
to persons to withhold their vote from
Henry Ford.
Despite every effort of the prosecu-
tion to show corruption" proceeded Mr..
Hughes, "the trial court disposed of this
charge and refused TO permit the jury to
consider ii, as there was no evidence
to sustain it,
Mr.. Hughes then quoted Chief Justice
White upon this point, as follows
"At the trial, before the submission
of the case to the jury. the court put
the fifth count entirely out of the case
by instructing the jury to disregard it.
as there was no evidence whatever to
sustain it. The bribery charge there
fore disappeared
Upon the sixth count, that charging
conspiracy to defraud by use of the
mails, the jury rendered a verdict of not
guilty, Mr.. Hughes continued. leaving
four counts involving substantially the
mated or consolidated with the first
counts.
Thus" proceeded Mr. Hughes "the
question came down to one point, as I
have said the expenditure or conspiracy
to cxpend an amount Of money in ex-
cess of the statutory limit of $3.50.
That was all that was left of the case.
Senator Newberry could not have
been convicted, even upon this charge.
without what l always regarded, and
so stated in my argument to the Su-
preme Court, as an extra ordinary mis-
application of the statute upon which
the charge was based"
Going on to the appeal taken 10 the
Supreme Court by Senator Newberry
and the other defendants against the
conviction thus obtained. Mr.. Hughes
told of the opinion of that court, writ
ten by Justice McReynolds In behalf
Of a majority of the justices, that the
Federal statute was unconstitutional as
Congress had not been authorized to
limit the expenses of a primary or NOM
ination campaign. Justice McKenna,
one of the majority, concurred on the
ground that the act was enacted prior
to the Seventeenth Amendment, and he
reserved the question of the power of
Congress under that amendment.

constitutional in its relation to primary
campaigns" added Mr. hughes, the
basis of the prosecution OF Senator
Newberry, with all it's sensational In
