NO DECISION NOW FROWN ON BONUS
More Displeasing to Harding
With Debt Amendments.
Friends Hoped Action Would
Place 1t Beyond Veto.

Washington, Aug. 30.-In it's first
vote of the day the senate rejected,
Al to II, the Bursum amendment pro-
posing to pay the soldiers half in cash
and half in certificates of indebted
ness payable in five years
Party lines again were broken. 16
Republicans. IL Democrats voting for
the, Bursom amendment and 81 Re
publicans and 13 Democrats opposing
it. The Smoot proposal to pay the
bonus by means of a sales tax then
was taken up.
washington. Aug. 3o.-white House
callers who discussed the bonus with
President Harding today came away
with the impression that the execu
tive regarded addition of the McNary
reclamation and Simmons foreign debt
amendments adopted yesterday in the
senate as making the measure more
Objectionable than it was in its orig
inal form. -s
The big question today in the minds
of friends of the bonus was whether
the senate provision for paying it out
of the interest of the foreign debt
would put it beyond the risk of presi-
Dental veto.- Most of them appeared
more hopeful but foes of the measure
seemed undisturbed.
Proponents recalled that the presi-
dent had suggested to the members
of the ways and means committee
early in the year that the house defer
action in the expectation that interest
payments from Great Britain would
begin to come in. On the other hand
foes pointed out that from the first
the executive had been insistent that
the financing of the bonus should not
be made dependent upon returns from
the foreign debt, until they were
actually in hand.
No Interest Paid Yet.
None of the interest on the debt has
been received, but it has been stated
often in senate debate that Great
Britain had arranged to begin pay
ments this year. Even if the bonus
senators have said that it would not
begin to tax the treasury until next
year
Disappointed over their failure to
get a vote yesterday senate leaders to-
day had quit guessing as to when final
action would come. Five amendments
still are pending and in addition half
a dozen or more senators, some of
them just back from campaign trips,
want to speak.
Washington. Aug. 3O.-The senate
will turn its attention to pending coal
Legislation as soon as it has disposed
of the soldiers bonus measure. Sena-
tor Lodge, Massa chusetts. Republican
leader. announced today after a. meet
ing of the steering committee.
The program gave no indicat ation of
any plan to recess 1t provided for
consideration of legislation in the fol-
lowing order: Bonus. coal emergency
measures, the Liberian loan, the Cap

NORWICH TROOPS MADE DELAYED l START FOR CAMP IN VIRGINIA

 Battery B.. and the Combat Tran. which are the two Norwich sections of the 1s2nd Field Artillery. had tedious waiting time Saturday before they fln- ally got started by train for Camp Eus- tis Va, where they are to have . 15 day period of summer training
 Orders from Headquarters had set the time for leaving here at 4.4S in the af- terneon on the New Haven road, but there were delays in the train serviee an the troops did not get away until after the regular o'clock train. Previ- ously the order had been to leave here in the morning, but the New Haven road was not able to get the necessary train-of steel cars by that time and the time for departure had to he put off. But there was one advantage In this as the road was able to send to Norwich the cars which the men would occupy for the entire trip and there was no change at New London, as there would have been in the morning.
 Cant. ". R. Denison in command of the Battery and Capt. H F. Burdiek in command of the Combat Train had the men report at the state armery at 2.30 and marched them to the station in time for exrected departure at AS. From then until they actually were able to leave the soldiers waited at the station ready to entrain at any time their ears might arrive.

 NOMINATION FOR SENATOR

Acknowledgements Augustin Loner- gan has given an emphatic and explicit denial to the rumor which has been cur-' rent for week or so that he had ahan- doned his intention to be candidate be- fore the next democratic state convention for the nomination for United States seh- atr and that, instead, he would run for the democratic nomination for judge of probate in Hartford.
 T will accept the democratic nomina- ton for United States senator if it is the pleasure of the convention to nominate me, and may say that my chances for the nomination are very bright and en- couraging. The judgeshiD of probate does not interest me at all. I would prefer to practice law in Hartford than to be judge of probate" said MT. Lonergan.
