SENATORS HOLD EXPERIENCE MEET
 ON WOOL RAISING
Resolution Offered by Cara way of Arkansas For h. yestigation of Judiciary
 Committee

Washington, July 29.-The ques- tion of whether senators are inter- ested financially, as has been charged, in the duties on wool and other commodities voted into the pending tariff bill, was brought up today in the Senate and led to long stormy debate.
 The discussion was opened by Sem ator Caraway. democrat. Arkansas. who offered a resolution proposing an investigation by the Judiciary committee with report to the Sen ate within 10 days. Mir. caraway asked for unanimous consent for im- mediate consideration of the meas ure. but Senator wadsworth. repub- l:can. New York, objected not only to that, but to the introduction of the resolution. Thus, under the rules the measure did not come officially before the Senate
 Resolutions Pressed
 Democratic leaders said privately that the resolution would be pressed later, while Senator Gooding, Idaho, chairman of the republican agricul- tural-tariff bloc, and champion of the wool duty, declared to the Sem ate that he would insist upon an in- vestigation, which he charged had been proposed by the democrats for political purposes"
 The Idaho senator said he would plead guilty" to owning . fow sheep. while Senator Bursaw, repub- lican, New Mexico. said it was no secret that he was a sheep raiser, as he had told the Senate before.
 Fight to Last
 Announcing that he would fight for the sheep industry to the last ditch because. he said. the prosperity of his state depended on its live stock in- dustry, Senator Gooding declared that If he had violated any law he would resign.
 Senators Shoot, republican. Utah: Oddie, republican, Nevada. and Jones. New Mexico. denied that they were engaged in wool producing.
 In opening the discussion. Senator (Caraway told the Senate he was not impunsing the motives of senators nor saying that the charges that had been made in the newspapers and Senate were true; what he sought was an investigation of the matter. His resolution. which was read to the Senate. set forth that these charges were ''hurtful to the honor of those senators and to that of the Senate itself"
 The resolution would not confine the inquiry to the pending bill but would include also the emergency tariff bill enacted more than a year ago. The Judiciary committee would be instructed specifically to ascer- tain:
 Ftrst, whether any senator is
 or has been financially or profes-
 sionalIy Interested in the produc-

Hughes, Secretary of State, in declaring that the Under wood bill, creating an American com for the settlement of Amer ican claims against Germany would embarrass the administration, blum dered more palpably than any other man who has ever occupied his po- sition.
 Instead of Congress embarrassing the administration in attempting to negotiate a new treaty with Germany Is unwittingiy stealing . prerogative of Congress. Existing treaties nsgo- tiated by MT. Hughes expressly de- clare that Congress shall have juris- diction in the settlement of American claims.
 Senator Underwood in . state-

 by hundreds of persons headed by sherfff's deputies for "Cockys Glover, . negro, followed the kiIl- ing of Walter c. Byrd, a dep- uty sheriff, and tke woundfnR of three negroes here tonight in shooting affray in . negro pool room.
 The police urged all negroes to go to their homes after rescuing one from a downtown crowd and seeing others shot at, and 1t appeared that a race riot which police feared, had been averted.
 {. The killing followed the entry into the pool room on Broadway of Dep uty Byrd, accompanied by Deputies Romus Raley and VIII lakes, the latter a negro, in search of a negro criminal. Glover, who police said they knew well. was accused of hay ing shot Byrd in the back Firing became general and when the smoke cleared away, Byrd was dying and three negroes were wounded.
 A number of arrests were made in the pool room and search was begun thnt led to the Ocmulgee river bottoms. Later police and deputies went through the negro sections looking for Glover, who had escaped from the pool room by ienping through a window.
 The pool room was on block of Broadway occupied almost entirely oy negro business places and lodg- ing houses and they were closed up by police orders and all nerroes for- bidden to show themselves In the block as matter of precaution.
 Deputy Byrd. who stood six feet five inches, had the reputation of being one of the most fearless men on the sheriff's force, and had been given credit for solving the myste- rtous murder last Christmas of A. L.. Aligood. motorman- conductor, who was killed and robbed.

Under civil service Fegula-
 lions, ft will he necessary for
 the entire commission to rattfy
 the action of the public safety
 head before the discharges be-
 come effective and legal, which
 comes before the commission In
 regular session Tuesday.
 Associate missfoners have
 declared they will not counten-
 ance the move of Commissioner
 Cioe to disrupt the fire light
 tEg organization and sharp
 tits are expected at tho ,next
 commission session.
 Commissioner Cloe would make no statement yesterday other than make public the action which he had decided on. which was couched in the brief statement to the two veterans of the department that they were summariiy fired.
 The Birmingham fire department which has for the past been Sevoid of politics, saw It's third maneuver- ing tactics yesterday in the attempt to discharge the two men. The first movement began with the discharge of E. c. Crow of the fire depart ment under the administration Of former Commissioner John H. Tay- Tor. for alleged political activities. When the present nuhI'~ % tssy head who. 1t is said, has since been the political adviser to his benefactor on matters pertaining to the fire de- partment.
 Rumor has 1t that g. A. Middle ton, chief of the department, is slated for the ax November 1. 1pd with the refusal of First Assistant Chief ]. L. Akin, to whom the post is said to have been tendered, and the discharge of Second Assistant Chief Browning, Crow Is slated for the vacancy, should 1t be so de- clared by action of the commission in retiring the veteran chief who has been with the department for the past 25 years.
 Fireman Crow, in communication with The Age-Herald. denies that he is an aspirant to the position occu- pied by Chief Middleton and de- clares he has never been active in dictating to the public safety head over matters pertaining to the fire department.
 Retirement of Chief Middleton and the two discharged men. the com as a whole declares. will not happen. for the efforts of Clos to disorganixe the department will be forcibly opposed.
 Priority has been the keynote of the fire department In governing promotion since the resignation of A. v. Bennett several years ago. who was succeeded by the present chief. s. A. Middleton. who at that time was senior captain with the same rank of Norris. who has been notified of the falling of the ax to take effect August 1. Lneal rank would be disregarded in success of the efforts of Commi ssioner Cioe in carrying out his reorganization pro- gram and rights of the second chief who has been a member of the de- partment for 24 years and that of the captain. member Is years. would be totally disregarded.
 Live developments in the shake-np are expected.
 The widening breach of yesterday was precipitated by the first three weeks ago when Cloe broke with the federal government over the conduct of the federal-municipal employment bureau and the second when the com as a whole dissented with the safety head over the proposed re- duction of members of the pubic uafsty department which embraces both the fire and police departments.
