ZOO BALLOTS IN
IOWA CONTEST
MISSING
Steck Is Showing Gain Over
Brookhart in Senate
Recount

A small sensation was sprung In
the Senate Elections Committee to-
day when it was discovered that 200
ballots cast in the contested Iowa
Senatorial election between Senator
Smith w. Brookhart and Daniel F.
Steck, Democrat, are missing.
The missing ballots are from Win
terset precinct in Madison county.
The tally books show that 133 OF
the votes were cast for Steck, and
81 for Brookhart.
The committee ordered an hmme.
date investigation to trace the bal
lots
Although Brookhart registered
gains, the recount of fifty counties
today gave Steck a majority OF
1858 votes in these counties.
The total uncontested vote was
Steck 20S,574; Brookhart, 1891.
In the fifty counties, 1888 votes
were challenged. of which $500 We're
cast for Brookhart and l,099 for
Steck.
The total of the gain by Steck
with two-thirds of the recount COM
pIete is placed unofficially between
700 and 500. The Steck and Brook
hart supervisors of the recount are
not in accord and no official fig.
ures have been announced.
Official announcement by State
officials of the election of Brook
hart placed his majority at 755.
The Senate committee recount of
machine votes in twenty-five OF the
ninety-nine counties OF the State
showed errors in the count in favor
of Brookhart to the extent Of $50,
increasing this majority to 1885.
The recount in fOrty-six OF the
seventy-seven paper ballot counties
of the State, giving Steck a net
gain of over 700. has wiped out the
early gain of $50 by Brookhart and
REDUCED by 100 his official majority

who escaped.
Proposed by Confederates
Jackson told Postal Inspector w.
G Baumgardner, of Chicago, that
Robson had frequently proposed
TO him that they steal registered
mail from the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy train from Chicago, but
that each time he refused.
Thursday, Jackson said Robson
came to him again insisting that
he :'be allowed" to hold up the
truck.

no determination of the money lost
could be obtained until check-up
was made through the Chicago

He saw no gun, Goldsberry said,

PARIS, Aug. 14.--Suspicion and
frank hostility were apparent to-
day in the French attitude toward
the intervention Of American AM
bassador Houghton in the Frances
German parleys in London over
the German security pact.
So outspoken are the criticisms
of a section of the French press
that further diplomatic denials
may be expected from embassy
circles in the British capital.
Debt Is Involved
Both the political enemies OF
Premier Painleve and M. BRAND,
the foreign minister, as well as
those critics who always attribute
to the United States money-makinE
as the sole motive and moving
force in American diplomacy have
seen their opportunity.
The fact that Ambassador Hough-
ton is reported as having told M.
BRAND that the United States IA
vors4 bi-lateral pact with Germany
in the interests of peace, is being
distorted to mean anything which
the whim of the moment dictates.
OF course the settlement OF the
French war debt to the United
States comes in for heated discus.
sion and the Midi advocates a COM
bination of the European debtor
nations to resist payment to Uncle
Sam.
Accuses Germany.
The Echo de Paris, inflammation.
alist organ of the naval and mill
tary cliques declared that Germany
modified Ambassador Houghton to
make the French agree that the
pact should be bi-lateral, meaning
that Germany can declare war
against France without the sane
ton Of the League of Nations
"Houghton's role along the
Thames bank is obvious because
of his long stay along the Spree
bank" was the ironical comment
of L'Action Franchise, the royalist
organ which hates everything SAVIOR

MUSCLE SHOALS BILL
UP ON POINT OF ORDER
Senate Presidents Ruling on I'm
derwood Proposal to Be Disposed
of After Two Hour Debate.

The conference report on the Under
wood Muscle Shoals leasing bill con-
tinued before the Senate today under
an agreement calling for a vote on
the ruling of President Cummins that
the report was out of order after not
more than two hours of debate.
Agreement for "A vote on the ap-
peal from the ruling, moved by Sena-
tor Underwood, Democrat, Alabama,
author of the BILL was reached Sat
urday after two DAYS of debate on
the report. The point of order sus-
tanned by President Cummins was
raised by Senator Norris, Republi-
can, Nebraska, leader of the opposi-
tion fight. on the ground that the
conferees had exceeded their author
ity.
While the agreement precluded in
terminable debate on the question of
returning the bill to conference,
whether or not the vote today results
in that course. the fate of the meas
ure would still be left in doubt. If
returned to conference, which was
predicted by some leaders on both
sides, il would mean that much more
delay, while if kept before the Senate
a final vote on adoption of the report
probably would not be had for some
days. 1t would then remain for the
House to act on it,
