WAsHINGTON. Aug. 2O.-sena-
tor James j.. Davis rep, Pa in
dicted with six others for alleged
violation Of lottery laws, may be
tried early in September.
He has asked for an early trial,
and the docket Of the court in the
southern district Of New York, where
he was indicted, is in such shape
that his request probably will be
granted.
Senator Davis will attend the
convention Of the Loyal Order Of

order is implicated in the lottery
charges.
Although no longer an active Of
fetal Of the lodge, Davis is an
honorary official for life. and 1t is
assumed that he will discuss the
case fully in a speech.
Third Senator Indicted
The Pennsylvania is the third
senator to be indicted since the turn
Of the century.
The supreme court in 1906 sus-
tanned the conviction OF former
Senator Burton of Kansas, who was
charged with accepting $500 a
month from a st. Louis client which
the postoflce department charged
with using the mails to defraud.
In 1924, the department Of justice
sought to convict Senator Burton K.
Wheeler Of Montana on the allega-
ton that he had represented a client
before the interior department.
Wheeler had conducted the senate
probe which resulted in President
Coolidge's request for Attorney
General Daugherty's resignation,
and the indictment was then re-
garded as spite work" Wheeler
was acquitted by the trial court, and
by the senate which conducted a
special investigation.
Officials Keep Silence
Department of Justice officials
continue their silence concerning
Davis indictment.
It was learned, however, that be-
fore Davis and the other defendants
we're indicted, United States At
torney George 2. Medalie and AS
sistant Attorney Louis M. Treadwell
discussed the case with officials
here, and it was decided that the
prominence of Davis and some Of
the others would not gain them
special treatment.
Friends OF the defendants sought
to intervene in their behalf to pre-
vent the humiliation of an indict-
ment.

The veteran said, perhaps Mr.
