The Nye resolution points
out the senate denied a seat
to Ware Dec. 6, because the
senator-elect spent $785, 900
in his primary election.
"It was the expenditure of this
amount of money and the manner
of it's expenditure which caused the
senate to deny a scat to Vare," the
resolution stated.
I'm the same campaign in which
Ware and his ticket were found by
a senate investigating committee to
have expended $785, 900 to win the
nomination, another ticket in oppo-
sition to Ware and in support of
the nomination of Fisher for Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania, expended
ST. 1,804,979, or nearly three times as
much"
Against Policy
"Of that sum 100000 was raised
and contributed by Joseph r.
Grundy.
"The expenditure of such large
sums of money to obtain nomina-
ton is contrary to sound public
policy, the dignity and honor of the
senate, dangerous to the perpetuity
of free government and destruc-
tive of the value and merit Of an
election climaxing a campaign OF
such expenditures"
Therefore be it resolved, that
Joseph Grundy be, and he is here
by, denied a seat in the United
States senate"
May Take Oath
Nye will not insist on preventing
Grundy from taking the oath of
office as was done in the Ware case.
He will ask instead that his resolu-
ton be referred to the senate privi-
leges and elections committee. Pend
ing a decision of that committee,
Grundy will be allowed to take his
seat in accordance with the usual
routine.
His credentials, however, are ex-
pected to be sent to the committee
for investigation.

The club, cut from a maple
tree, is about two feet long
and three inches thick, was
found with the penknife in
Mrs. Heath's bedroom. Fin
gerprints were taken from the
club and police believe they
will be of material assistance
in identifying the murderer.
Search for the couple was started
early today, when Whitney stopped
at the farm to pick up Heath's
cream for market. When he found
it had not been set out for him, nc
became alarmed, as none had been
left Wednesday. Investig alton
showed that stock in the barns had
not been fed nor had cows been
MIXED.
He called the daughter. who lived
nearby, and they broke into the
house. All doors were locked, but
an open window on the lower floor
was believed to have been used by
the slayer in entering and leaving.
Police believe the murder was
committed Tuesday night, as work
on the farm had not been done
Wednesday.
Mrs. j. c. Reese, a neighbor, said
today she talked with Mrs. Heath
on the telephone about 10 Tuesday
night, and that Mrs. Heath told her
they had been bothered by a prowl-
er, but dogs had frightened him
away.
A month ago, Heath's automobile
and chickens were stolen and police
today we're trying to link the slay-
ing with the theft, believing the
same person committed both.

AUBURN PRISON, NEW YORK,
Dec. 12.-Prison guards and state
troopers went from cell to cell to-
day through Auburn prison, search
ing each nook of the big, gray peni-
tentiary and each of the 1856 pris-

had been shot down and fifteen had
been injured by gun fire or by tear
gas.
Each cell was kept locked today
and the only convictS to be kept in
their cells were approximately 300
for whom there was no cell room.
So confident were prison officials
that the situation was under con-
troll today that they agreed to the
withdrawal of the national guards

police squads from Rochester, Syra-
cuse and Auburn, which had been
modified at the prison, also were

the Oneida barracks, under COM
mand of Captain Stephen McGrath,
remained to reinforce the regular
prison guard. The troopers made
headquarters within the prison
buildings.
Searchlights, mounted on the
walls and buildings, played over the
prison through the night and will be
kept in operation as long as neces-
sary. Supplies of automatic rifles
were placed today at strategic points
as were tear gas bombs.
At daylight, it was found that two
revolvers taken from guards
Wednesday still were missing. All
prisoners had been accounted for.
