CARAWAY REOPENS
ATTACK ON MELLON
Sends New List of Questions on
Distillery Stock to Secretary
of Treasury.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Caraway of Arkansas today
renewed his warfare with Secretary
Mellon by inquiring as to Mr.. Melons
ownership of stock in distille-y.
In a letter to the Secretary the
Arkansas Senator said Mr.. Mellon had
failed to furnish the desired informa-
ton in a recent letter, and a further
series of questions was propounded:
The Senator asked how many gallons
of intoxicating liquor the Secretary
owned or controlled through companies
or corporations in which he was inter-
ested at the time Of the adoption OF
the prohibition amendment, how much
of it is now held and under what au-
thority any of it was sold.
Secretary Melons former reply, that
he had not been actively engaged IN the
distillery business was declared by the
Senator not to be an answer to his
question.

kerfectly preserved specimens OF AMI

The newly found fossils range
Through a thickness of at least lO,0UO
feet of stratum, and include many
animals entirely new to science. the
organisms have highly evolved locomotor
appendages and spiral gills for BREATH

so complex that, assuming life to have

forms, the fauna would be placed about
sine-tenths of the way up the life

Many of the fossils are well preserved

animals allied to the sandworm. the
shrimp-like creatures, and the crayf1sh
of modern times. Other forms OF AMI
NAL life are, however. also present.
The chitin, or horny substance OF
