SENATE BEAT S
'UNDER COVER"
DRY ALLOTMENT
Let S12,OOO,OOO Appropria-
ton for Enforcement go
by Without Protest.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15-[P)-Senate
vets today let pass without protest
the $12,0OO,0OO appropriation in the
treasury supply bill for the enforce
ment activities of the prohibition unit,
but scored a victory against the pro-
vision for under cover" agents.
Led by Senators Bruce, Maryland,
and Reed, MissouriJ democrats they
let loose an assault against the pro-
posed use of $5OO,OOO for under cover"
men whom they described as "spies,
sneaks and snoopers."
Vice President Dawes finally ruled
that the proposal of Assistant Secre-
harry Andrews, chief of the dry forces,
for authority to spend $50O000 without
regard to present auditing require
ments, was CLEARLY out of order in
that it contemplated new legislation
in an appropriation bill. The proposal
had been eliminated in the house on
similar grounds, but was reinserted
by the senate appropriations commit
tee. While the senate vets We're MAX
ing their assault on the $500,000 pro-
vision, movement got under way to
formally organize them, for the first
time since the dry law went into eff
feet, to map out campaign for pro-
cedure on other prohibition proposals.
Senator Edge, republican, New Jer-
sey, issued invitations to 20 senator's
for a conference at an indefinite date,
but the list was not made public.
During the senate discussion, Senator
Bruce denounced the under cover
provision as "tyrannical," and the pro-
posal was generally attacked because
it permitted the secret use" of funds.
"There will be no liberty left in this
land" asserted Bruce, "if this system
is allowed to run to it's extreme conse-
quences. General Andrews contem-
plates nothing less than military
tyranny fon this country with proposals
of this kind
Senator Reed contended it would be
futile to authorize the use of $500, 900
for employment of an army of spies
because when you stop liquor at one
source it breaks out in another"
Senator Edwards, democrat New
Jersey, another wet, remarked that
there is nothing in this provision to
prevent it being given to the Anti
Saloon league or to Wayne B. Wheeler"
Senator Smoot, republican, Utah,
told his colleagues that if prohibition
is bad for the country, there is only
one way to get rid of it, and that is
to enforce tito the limit,

but Jack never heard more than the
the first act; he went to sleep"
Kidder did not say whether this play
was ever produced.

Y, said that he played with Lotta at
the Park theatre in New York in 1879
and that Jack Crabtree was in the city.
cambridge went abroad with Lotta,
her mother and her brother, George,
the next year, he said. In one of
Lotta's plays, Bainbridge took the part
of Lieutenant Frank Eldon, very
brave and very susceptible" he testi-
fled.
Mrs. Elizabeth Doremus of New York,
who wrote a play for Miss Crabtree,
was another witness who remembered
seeing Jack in New York. Louis S.
Livesey of Sheldon, Vermont, cousin
of Lotta, said that he lived with the
Crabtrees for several years after the
death of his parents.
He worked in Abbey's Park theatre,
New York, in 1879, he said In the
fall of 1880, he said, he accompanied
Jack to train in Jersey City which
was going to take him to Arizona.

COL. NED GREEN
TAKES WITNESS
STAND in Case
Makes Flat Denial That He
Ever Violated the Vol
stead Act in Any Way.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 15.-(RD-Col.
Ned NJ. Green, deposed prohibition ad-
ministrator for northern California and
Nevada, had his day in court today in
his trial on charges of embezzling gov
ernment liquor, but he was not permit
ted to testify that he was the victim
of plot to remove him from office
Colonel Green put on record flat
denial that he had violated the Vol
stead act. He testified his duties some
times required him to drink confiscated
liquor, but that he always had done his
drinking in his hotel room. Previously
he had told the court his duties often
made it necessary for him to examine
the labels and bottles of liquor seized
by prohibition agents. Colonel Green
attempted to relate the facts of a sup
posed conspiracy by certain unidenti-
fled men and women to remove him
from office, but was blocked by prose-
cution objections. His chief counsel,
Theodore J. Roche, then explained that
it was hoped to show that Colonel
Green had been asked to raid a certain
of a plot to compromise him with the
government.
Are you trying to prove" the court
asked, that the government was be-
hind this alleged conspiracy to oust
Colonel Green,''
"I am not" Roche replied, "but I
hope to show that the conspiracy was
participated in by certain government
agents."
The court, however, overruled fur
ther testimony along this line. Colonel
Green admitted that several months
ago he supplied two bottles of govern
ment liquor to Colonel McCaskey, a
friend of years standing, who was dy
ing at the Letterman general hospital
here. The liquor was supplied at the
request of the hospital commandant,
the witness said, after Colonel McCas-
key had earnestly solicitated it to ease
the pain of his illness
II knew that the colonel was a drink
ing man and needed the liquor, as there
