The test vote, however, was on whether the resolution should be considered ut once. "LAVISH EXPENDITURES." Senator Fat Harrison and Senator James A. Reed had brought before the Senate the reports of lavish money uses in Pennsylvania. Some, of the senators who voted for Newberry voted against consideration of the Reed resolution to investigate, but after the Senate had decided to pass on it at once, absented themselves or did not vote, Senator James K. Watson of Indiana disappeared.

He was not in favor of dealing with the subject at once and was not there when the second roll was called, although a very few minutes intervened. Arthur R. Robinson of Indiana, who obediently observes the attitude; of trie senior Senator, voted against taking til resolution up, and was recorded as "not voting" on passage of it. He, too. had "ducked." Robinson was not.

A plea for tiie improvement of farm life and conditions in the United States as a means of insuring the stability of the nation's commercial life was made here today by Governor Clifford Walker of Georgia in an address before the United States Good Roads Association convention.

Bryan was attracted to tii" untenanted room in which Mrs! SI. Mary's body was discovered, hy the fact that the door was opened. He looked in, and saw the body on the bed. The body was in such position that police believe she was thrown there by the murderer before she was choked into unconsciousness. This theory was heightened by the fact that two diamond ear-rings, at first believed to have been stolen, were later found in the lied.

An Imitation pearl necklace, of no intrinsic value, was missing from the aged woman's neck, but the police discredited the robbery motive. The autopsy, according to Dr. Strange, "definitely established the tact, of strangulation." medical proof of this, he as-scried, was found. Several ribs were broken by the terrific attack. The woman's dress was torn and her watst pulled apait.

and, a It hough Dr. Strange reserved final comment 'pending the result of laboratory tests, be declared that all indications oointed to a fiendish attack.

Approximately 20.0C0 votes cast for Pinchot were counted for his rivals. Pepper and Vars.

The mayor of Pittsburgh instructed the police to line up for Pepper or lose their jobs. "7 Pepper campaign literature was distributed by Pittsburgh police in saloons and "speak easies" just before the primaries. Senator George W. Pepper, -who lost the senatorial nomination to Representative Vare, took the stand after McGovern. and disclaimed all responsibility for the alleged wholesale corruption in Allegheny county.

DENIES RESPONSIBILITY. Pepper said his campaign committee had its headquarters in Philadelphia and did not retain branch headquarters in Pittsburgh. The Pittsburgh headquarters referred to by McGovern as "dealing out the cash" were conducted by the campaign committee working for the "ticket." he said. The ticket candidates were Pepper. Fisher, Krnest Smitn for lieutenant governor and James Woodruff for sec-, reiary of state.

"Are you going to disclaim responsibility for this 'ticket committee' of which you speak?" demanded Senator Reed, Democrat, of Missouri, committee chairman. "It is not a question of claiming or disclaiming, I merely wish to present the facts," Pepper responded. MELLON GAVE $25,000. William L. Mellon, nephew of the cabinet secretary, followed Pepper on the stand.

He testified that. Secretary of the Treasury Mellon himself contributed J25.000 to the campaign, and similar amounts were donated by his brother. Robert B. and by William L. Mel-Ion himself, it was stated.

In fact, W. E. Mellon "may have contributed "a little more'" than that sum, lie told the committee.

"They spent money like water," he said, adding that they had rooms in one hotel and 20 in another in Pittsburgh for headquarters. "They even hired a caravan of athletes for $1,000 to go around i.rid give exhibitions at colleges so thai the students would write home and tell what a fine man Pepper was." BEER WAS BETTER McGovern asserted it was generally agreed in Pittsburgh that Raird, prohibition director, was transferred to Philadelphia just before the primaries in order to give the impression that Pepper, a "dry," was "broad-minded" on the liquor question. "Was there any change in Pittsburgh after Baird was transferred?" asked Reed. "Oh, yes: the beer got better, they say," McGovern responded while the spectators roared.

Senator Pepper personally had nothing to do with Baird's transfer, so far as he knew, he said. McGovern said the poll watchers employed by the Pepper ami Vare forces, which he estimated received $494.50, were unnecessary because official watchers were appointed by the courts. Explaining how Beidleman was "counted out" of the gubernatorial nomination, McGovern said that returns from 500 election districts in Allegheny county were "withheld" when it was 6 early Thursday morning 1. 1 a Beidleman had a lead of 60,000 votes. When the votes from these districts were counted, Beidleman's plurality had dwindled to a minority of 10,000, he said.
