'NEWBERRY RESIGNS
 SEAT AS SENATOR
Thereby Blocks Move to Have
 Him OuSted

Washington. Nov. 20.--Scnator Tru- man II. Newberry, whose title to a seat in the senate from Michigan has been in controversy for a long time, has sent hfs resignation to Governor Groesbeck, who will grant his request that 1t take effect at once. A copy of the senator's letter of resignation has been handed to Vice-President Cool idge, who will notify the senate of MT. Newberry's action. This will end the senate's connection with the New berry case.
 By resigning at this time, on the eve of the assembling of congress In extra session. MT. Newberry has saved himself from a renewed attempt to have his seat declared vacant, which Is euphemism for expulsion. Sem ator Caraway democrat, of Arkansas, announced last night, before the fact of Senator Newberry's resignation be- came known, that hen congress as- sembled tomorrow he would offer a resolution to deprive MT. Newberry of his seat before he had an opportun- ity to resign. As the resignation probably already has become effective, this resolution seems to have been deprived of its purpose, but it is so worded that MT. Caraway may try to get action on 1t in spite of Vice-Presi- dent Coolidge's announcement to the senate that Mr. Newberry had vol untarily retired.
 His Letter of Resignation
 Senator Newberry's letter of resig- nation, sent to Governor Groesbeck, reads:
 Detroit, Mich. Nov. 19, 1922. Hon. Alex J. Groesbeck,
 Governor of Michigan, Lansing, Mich.
 Sir: I tender herewith my resigna- ton as United States senator from Michigan, to take immediate effect.

Senator Town send was defeated. While this fail- ure to re-elect him may ilays been brought about, in part. by over four years of continuous propaganda of misrepresentation and untruth, fair analysis of the vote in Michigan and other states, where my friends and political enemies alike have suffered defeat, will demonstrate that gem tral feeling of unrest was mainly Io- sponsible therefor.
 This situation renders futile further service by me in the United States senate, where have consistently sup- ported the progressive policies of President Hardings administration. My work there has been and would continue to be hampered by partisan political persecution, and therefore cheerfully return my commission to the people from whom l received it.
 desire to record an expression of my gratitude for the splendid friend ship, loyalty and devotion of those who have endured with me, dur Ing the last four years, experiences in the political history of the country. By direction of the democratic administration, these be- gan immediately upon my nomination, by proceedings before specially se- lected grand jury sitting in another state, which, by vote of sixteen to one. completely exonerated those who had conducted my campaign. Then followed my election, with every is- sue which has since been raised clear ly before the electorate of the state. A recount was demanded, and after thorough and painstaking review of the ballots by the United States sem ate l was found to have received substantial majority.
 While this was in progress I was subjected With a large number of rep resentative men of Michigan, who had supported me, to trial, following in dlctments procured by democratic department of justice, which through hundreds of agents had hounded and terrified men in all parts of the state into believing that some wrong had

been done. Under the instructiona given by the court, convictions of . conspiracy to spend more than es,7Bo naturally followed. and sentence inc posing fines and Imprisonment wore Immediately passed. All charges of bribery and corruption were. however, quashed by the specific order of the presiding judge.
 On appeal the supreme court of the United States reversed the action of the court below because as stated by Chief Justice White. of the grave misapprehenslon and grievous misap- plication of the statute." which was also declared unconstitutional. A protracted investigation before the committee on privileges and elections taining my election and after bitter partisan debate the senate declared that I was entitled to my seat.
 In view of all these proceedings my right to my seat has been fully con- firmed and am thankful to have been permitted to have served my state and my country and to have the eternal satisfaction of having by my vote aided in keeping the United States out of the League of Nations.
 For those who so periodically and unsehshly worked for my election. and in defense of my own honor and that of my family and friends I have fought the fight and kept the faith. The time has now come. however, when can conscientiously lay down the burden and this I most cheer fully do. If in the future there seems to be opportunities for public service, I shall not hesitate to offer my serv- ices to the state which I love and the country revere.
 Respectfully,
 TRUMAN H. NEWBERRY.
 Senator Newberry sent to Vice. President Coolidge the following note endorsing his letter of resignation: Detroit. Mich, Nov. IT, 1922.
 Dear MT. President: enclose here- with copy of my resignation which have this day forwarded to the Gov ernor of the state of Michigan. and I respectfully request that this be read into the Records of the Senate as soon as possible.
 In terminating my service as Sena,- you my deep sense of thankfulness for your many courtesies and friendly consideration.

FRANK BACON, ALL
 TIRED OUT, IS DEAD
Stricken With Heart Attack After Playing 'Lightin'" 2,OO0 Times

Chicago, Nov. 20.-Frank Bacon one of Americas foremost character actors, died suddenly at $40 o'clock yesterday morning at the Hotel Del Prado here.
 Compelled to relinqu!sh his part ir the drama "Lightnin'," which he had played more than 2,oo0 performances the famous star left the Blackstone hotel last Sunday and went to the Del Prado, to be near his personal friend and physician, Dr. Robert A Black.
 'I am tired and ready to take a little rest" he told his wife as he left the Blackstone theater after what proved to be his last performance on Saturday night week ago.
 His own words explain more nearly the cause of his death than doctors statements. His end had come and he passed on. To those who assert that his death was the result of over work Mrs. Bacon replies that "his work was his life, providing a stim- ulant without which death would possibly have called him sooner"
 Not until Friday night was his ill- ness considered dangerous. On Satur- day morning his mind was unusually keen, according to his nurses. At that time, they say, he discussed general topics of the day, including the defeat of Lloyd George and the return ot Lady Astor to parliament. Although confined to his room throughout the week, Mir. Bacon was able to move about and to keep in touch with the outside world through newspapers. Al about Il o'clock Saturday morning Mir. Bacon suffered a heart attack and fell into a coma. He never recov- cred consciousness.
 With him at the end were his wife, who shared his years of struggle and near poverty, and his daughter, Mrs. Bessie Allen, who arrived Saturday night from Kansas City, where she had been playing the leading woman part in her fathers play with the road company. A son, Lloyd Bacon, director for Lloyd Hamilton, motion picture star, will arrive in Chicago Tuesday morning. He left Los An geles this morning.
 To Hold Memorial Services.
 At the request of Mrs. Bacon, who is prompted by what she is confident would have been her husbands wish, memorial services will be held Wed nesday morning at the Blackstone theater, where he appeared daily for more than year. Ex-Judge Kene- saw Mountain Landis, a close personal friend of MT. Bacon, will deliver a short eulogy and the services will be by the Christian Science church, of which MT. Bacon was a member. The body will be taken from the theater to vault, where it will be left until next summer. At that time 1t is planned to remove it to Mountain View, Cal, his boyhood home.
 Mir. Bacon received his early school Ing in the San Jose public schools.
 At IA he went to work on a sheep where he remained for three years, until he became an apprentice to San Jose photographer. Eventual ly he established studio of his own. At the end of four years he decided to do newspaper work. His first job was an advertising solicitor for The
