8 THE MORNING OKEGOXIAX- SATURDAY, JANUARY 13, 1917. HOUSE MAY COMPEL LAWSON TO TESTIFY Republicans Compel Action and Financier Will Be . Summoned Once More. MORE POWER IS GIVEN changed to May 1, 1917. as It was fixed oy tne senate. Prompt acceptance of the report Is expected and the much-discussed bill, already passed by both Houses by over whelming: majorities, probably will go to the President early next week. As it passed the House last year, the bill was to have become effective July isib. When it was taken up by the enate an amendment was adonted making- the date May 1. 1917. The Sen ate accepted the change without notice. out when the report fame before the House today Representative Bennet, of New York, raised the point of order, and was reluctantly sustained by Speaker Clark. The Speaker overruled a point of or- er made by Representative Gardner, of Massachusetts, against the action of the conferees in framing- the new clause in tne Asiatic exclusion section to meet the objection of the State Department Contempt Charges to Be Preferred it Boston ian Refuses to Same Congressman Who Accused Member of Cabinet. WASHINGTON. Jan. 12. Clothed with new powers for forcing a wit ness to testify, the House rules com mittee will call Thomas TV. Lawson before it again, probably Monday, and demand the name of the Congressman who, -ho says, told him that a Cabinet officer, a member of Congress and a broker were in s conspiracy to make money in the stock market on official secrets. This action came as the re sult of insistence by the Republican members of the House. If Lawson again refuses to name the Congressman and the trio involved in his story, as it generally is believed he will, the committee then will re port him either to the House or the District Court on contempt charges. Republicans Press Charge. This plan wss agreed on by the com mittee today after an acrimonious de bate between Democrats and Repub licans on the floor of the House had upset the generally accepted idea that agitation over rumors of a "leak" in advance of President Wilson's peace note was about to subside. In the course of the discussion Republicans charged that the Democrats were shut ting off the inquiry because they were afraid of it, while the Democrats in sisted their opponents were playing partisan politics. When the House had talked for two hours and was about to vote on the committee's report Representative Can trill, of Kentucy, made a proposition that changed the whole situation. Demand on I'limon Proposed. "Let the committee be instructed,' he said, "to bring Thomas W. Law- son before it and submit to him in writing the question he refused to an swer. If he does not answer, then let Lawson be cited before the bar of this house and determine whether Thomas "W. Lawson has more power than the American Congress. Everybody was surprised by the sug gestion, but in a moment indorsements began to come from members o' both sides of the House, including Chair man Henry, of the committee. In the end it was agreed the com mittee should have five additional days in which to report on the Wood priv ileged resolution, a report on which originally was ordered by tomorrow, and Mr. Henry immediately sailed a meeting of his committee for tomor row morning to worn out plans ror re calling Lawson. Powers to De Extended. ' The Wood resolution, with amend ments or some substitute to broaden the committee's powers, probably will be brought before the House tomorrow and acted on immediately, so the com mittee can proceed with its hearing Monday. At today's session the Democrats in sisted tnat no evidence worthy of se rious consideration had been produced and that it was useless to continue con sideration of rumors. The Republicans, however, insisted that only a thorough investigation would clear Congress of damaging reports which have become current since the "leak" charges first were brought. Lawson was assailed on both sides of the House. No one went so far as to say that his charges should be taken seriously, but Republicans con tinued to urge that, now he had made them, he should be forced to "put up or shut up." ' Harrison Accuses Republicans. Representative Harrison, Democrat, accusing the ' Republicans of pushing the inquiry for partisan purposes, as sailed Representative Wood particu lsrly for introducing his resolution when he was in possession of no facts and could produce nothing m-- than a "measly, anonymous letter." He said Mr. Wood owed a public apr"gy to Secretary Lansing, Secretary Tumulty Mr. Baruch and others for bringing their names into the affair. Mr. Wood replied he had no apology to offer for introducing the resolution, and he thought a thorough inquiry alone would satifsy the country. Representative Henry charged that the Republicans in urging the original investigation were "in an infamous po litical . conspiracy against the Demo cratic Administration and the Demo cratic Party." He said aid had been given Repre sentative Wood by Representative Gardner, of Massachusetts, and that Theodore Roosevelt also had helped in the efforts to bring about the inquiry. Jail for Lawson Suggested. "Why 7" asked Mr. Henry. "Because the President was seeking to bring about peace and these geutlemen were trying to tie his hands." While insisting there was absolutely no evidence back of any of the charges, Mr. Henry declared he was willing that the committee should summon Mr. Law son again, and said he was in favor of "putting him in a common Jail" should he continue to defy the committee. Whatever the action of the House may be in relation to Mr. Lawson's re fusal to answer questions, most of the members concede there is little chance he will ever suiter any penalty. The power of this Congress to punish a per son in contempt will expire on March 4, and it Is pointed out that Lawson, by suing for a writ of habeas corpus, prob ably could keep his case in courts un til after that .te.

Mr. Phillips, who is a Republican, has been in the diplomatic service for 13 years, and since the beginning of the European war has devoted his atten tion as Third Assistant Secretary al most exclusively to European affairs.

Thaw, who yesterday attempted to commit suicide in West Philadelphia as he was about to be surrendered to the New York authorities on charges of kidnaping and assaulting Frederick Gump, Jr.. of Kansas City, as soon as he is able to leave the hospital, were discussed at a conference late today between counsel for Oliver A. Brower and representatives of the Thaw inter ests in this city and Pittsburg. At the conclusion of the conference It was announced that no efforts to prevent his removal are likely to ba made. Companion Held Without BalL Brower, who is under arrest in con nection with the charges against Thaw, was today held without bail to await requisition papers from New York. Brower's hearing was brief. Assistant District Attorney Black, of New York. Informed the magistrate that the crime with which it is alleged Brower was connected was particularly atrocious. Henry Scott, counsel for Brower. said that his client had nothing to do with the crime charged against Thaw. He contended that Thaw was really the only man wanted, and now is in cus tody, and that there was no reason for holding Brower. He said that Brower was a business friend of Thaw's in Pittsburg, and the papers bearing on the Gump case, which were found In Brower's possession, had been given him by Thaw and that he had no knowledge of their contents. Tkaw'i Condition Good. Thaw's condition was reported good tonignt. ana unless complications arise, his physicians say, he will be able to leave the hospital within two weeks, Dr. Elwood R- Kirby, of this city, who was summoned by the Thaw family to attend him, said the fear that Tha- had swallowed slow poison tablets, several of which were found in his pockets, had been allayed. He said his patient had shown none of the early symptons of the poison and that he felt sure he had taken none of the tablets. Assistant District Attorney Black an nounced tonight that as soon as Thaw was able to leave the hospital requisi tion will be made for his return to New York. He declared that reports that the charges against Thaw were black mail were absolutely untrue. we have sufficient evidence to prove our case, said Mr. Black. The case seems complete, and there does not ap pear to be a chance for Thaw to prove an alibi. YEAR GIVEN CLUB HEADS SALESMEN'S NEW OFFICIALS ARE "SENTENCED" TO OFFICES.
