two or three exceptions, to vote for Mr..
Hoover on the first ballot.
The anti-Hoover Lowden leaders are
believed to be drawing In their horns
on the farmers crusade to Kansas City.
Several reasons are advanced for the
change In attitude on their part.
Sponsors for the farmer march" on
Kansas City. evidently alarmed at the
reaction to the publicity given to the
promised crusade" have begun toning
down earlier announcements.
Gov McMullen. who blew the first
trumpet for the march, has denied any
concerted storming OF the convention
city was intended; that any "Coxey's
army" affair was contemplated:
Elmer E. Bulls, an officer OF Dig
Chicago advertising agency, not farm
leader, who came to Kansas City yes
terday to prepare for the reception OF
the farmers. also emphasized that 1t
wasn't to be "Coxey's army" show.
but a businesslike affair OF sensible
citizens"
Backfire From Protest.
What is behind this change of front
is obvious. The corn belt professors
had carried their publicity campaign
on the revolt" to such extremes that.
whatever effect 1t may have had in
the Middle West, it was driving the
draft Coolidge" block of delegates in
the East into the lap and bosom OF
Secretary Hoover.
BY attacking President Coolidge, they
we're destroying any chance whatever
that might have existed of the ex-
tremclv conservative Coolidge group in
the East working with the liberal
radical Middle West farm group In a
final endeavor to stop Hoover. Without
such combination. no matter II 1t did
represent the extreme poles of belief
on farm relief. the Jig was certainly W
as far as beating Mr.. Hoover was con-
cerned And some political folks began
to tumble to that fact.

CALLS SENATE OIL
HEARINGS ILLEGAL
Counsel for Stewart Declares
Meetings Lacked
Quorum.
nr thn Assnciatnd Press.

Ry the Associated Press.
The legality of the two Senate COM
mittee meetings at which Robert w
Stewart. chairman of the board of the
Standard Oil Co. of Indiana, refused
to answer questions, was challenged by
defense counsel today. In the trial of
tho oil man on charges growing out OF
his refusal
The argument came up on a motion
OF United States Attorney Leo A. Rover
to strike out testimony Of Edward j
Bullock. vice president of the Indiana
company. and several other witnesses
relative to the Senators present when
Stewards refusals occurred.
Say No Quorum Existed.
Justice Siddons had earlier granted
motions by the prosecution to strike
out the testimony which had been given
regarding the Fall-Sinclair conspiracy
mistrial, on the ground that 1t was
immaterial.
Frank J. Hogan, defense counsel, con-
tended that the absence OF quorum
at the February 2 and meetings OF
the Senate public lands committee, when
Stewart declined to answer inquiries
which concerned the Continental Trad
ing Co, made those sessions irregular
held legally accountable for his action.
The lawyer cited legal precedents. and
insisted that the testimony opposed by
the Government should be retained
He recalled that the disputed testi-
mony showed the Senate public lands
committee to number IS members, and
that only three were present when
Stewart refused to answer.
Quorum Declared Presumed.
Rover replied to Hogan's argument
with a reminder to the court that a
quorum was always presumed to be
present In the Senate. and its COM
mittees. unless the absence of quorum
has been suggested. He also recalled
that in Stewards petition for habeas
corpus and his testimony he had said
that he refused to answer questions OF
the committee"
In winding up his argument. Hogan
had denied that Stewart appeared be-
fore "a committee in fact" contending
that eight Senators had to be present
to constitute committee.
The jury had been excluded from the
courtroom during the arguments, and
Justice Siddons excused the Jurors for
the day. as Rover got under way, The
raised by the defense under considers-
ton and intimated that he would not
make a ruling before tomorrow.
Question of Pertinency Arises.
Stewart is accused of violating sec
tion OF the criminal code making II
mandatory that witnesses before con-
gressional committee answer questions
pertinent to the subject of the hearing
Justice Frederick L. Siddons, who Is
presiding, said at the outset OF the trial
that he probably would be called upon
to rule on the pertinency of the ques-
tions before the case could go to the
jury.
Stewart took the stand In his own
defense yesterday and described freely,
and. with one exception, amiably the
circumstances surrounding his defiance
of the Senate committee.

Senate proceedings and read questions
