Found Not
 Guilty of Libel

PHOENIX, Oct. 26.-John C. Dunbar publisher of a Phoenix weekly news paper, was found not guilty on a charge of criminal libel tonight by a jury in Judge R. c. Stanford's division of the Maricopa county superior court after deliberations lasting five and one-half hours. The case went to the jury at , o'clock this afternoon and the verdict was returned at 10: 30 o'clock tonight
 The charge against Dunbar was brought in an indictment returned by the county grand jury, it being alleged in the indictment that a certain arti- cle published in his paper, regarding Ernest K. Hall, secretary of state was libelous. The specific charge in the indictment was that Dunbar in the ar ticle stated in effect that the propos- ed amendments to the constitution voted on at the special and primary election held September 12, were de feated principally because the head ings to the amendments as they ap- peared on the ballots, were so worded as to disguise the real meaning of the amendments.
 Dunbar in his article according tC the indictment. stated that this was due to the Suncompetency and ignor ance" of MT. Hall, who he charged. wrote the headings.

LE GAL PO WEIR OF COMMISSION
 |S CHALLENGED
Proposal to Sell Railroad Securities Meets With
 Emphatic Objections

WASHINGTON, Oct 26.-The in threw it's method of supervising is sue of railroad securities open for discussion before representative rail road officials and investment bank CTS, who were summoned to Wash ington, seeking advice particularly as to whether it should herafter re- quire sale of such issues to the highest bidder after open competitive bidding. The latter proposal was met with emphatic objections by both railroad men and bankers. while Judge Robert s. Lovett, chairman of a special committee of railroad ex- ecutives appointed to formulate the views challenged the legal power of the commission to institute practice.
 Otto Kahn, of Kuhn, Loeb and company expressed the opinion that such a system might prove ruinous to railroads, while Jackson F. Key holds, president of the First Nation al bank or New York said the com mission in the matter "could do its worst and not hurt us. (the bankers) but hurt the railroads" Dwight R. Morrow of J. P. Morgan and com pany, A. H. Harris, vice president of the New York Central and Forney Johnston, cousel for the Association of Railroad security holders, wer among the speakers called.
 Mir. Kahn said that the relation ship of great banking houses to the railroad corporations had brought in to existence the practice of private underwriting of railroad loans. It had assisted the carriers, he con tended. in getting successfully float ed, making up securities of form and type to fit markets and above all had maintained a stable broad investment market on which railroad securities could always be bought and sold.
 For many years to come. railroads will annully get large amounts of new capital Mir. Kahn declared. ana ''it will be a primary consideration with the Interstate Commerce Com mission 10 maintain the stable broad securities market from which this capital can be drawn"
 Judge Lovette spoke of the gen iOuS which bankers have for pro- tecting the securities market" as an important necessity in the floatation of large security issues. These 'is- sues, he said, some times constitute an invitation for ,speculators to try bear raids" that would make it impossible to maintain prices.

MSDECLARES STATEMENT OF
 DANIELS FALSE
Former Secretary of Navy Is lacked Up by Rear
 Admiral Sims, Retired

NEWPORT, R. l., Oct. 26.- Sharp issue with statement made last night by Josephus Daniels, former secre- tary of the navy regarding the adop- tion of the convoy system during the war was taken by Rear Admiral Will liam s. Sims, retired in a note given to the Associated Press tonight After asserting that the Daniels statement as it affected the adoption of the con voy system was false in all essen tial respects" the rear admiral con- tinued:
 He stated that the British admiral ty was opposed to the convoy system until some time after weentered the war; that President Wilson and he were at all times in favor of it: that he informed me of this when he gave me my instructions; that I presented these views to Admiral Jellicoe: and. that shortly thereafter the convoy sys tenn was put in operation.
 The official documents presented
 
 before the committee of the senate that investigated the department s conduct of the war show that through out the first three months of the war the navy department resisted the adoption of the convoy.
 As late as June IS, 1917, the navy department announced in a cablegram to me: Regarding conveys, I consid- CT that American vessels with armed guards on board are safer when sail ing independently and in cable of July 9, 1917, about 4,OO0 troops will be dispatched in each ship. Do you think that they should sail in com pany or singly?'
 AS I have stated in my testimony before tEe senate committee, Mir Dan iels gave me no instructions whatever before I left for England, expecting me to report the situation with refer ence to cooperation in case we should declare war"
 Admiral Sims said he intended tC embody the sentiments of his state ment in letter to MT. Daniels.
