LIVESLEY American public the $25,000 loan to ex-Senator Fall." The medical commission ap pointed by the senate committee examined Mr. Fall during the day in his sick room at the home of . J. W. Zevely, personal counsel to Mr. Sinclair, who is expected to report to the committee tomor row as to whether the formet secretary can appear for question ing. - The senate vote on the Walsh resolution was the result of a unanimous consent agreement to day, after two hours of fervid de bate. The measure will be trans mitted to the house tomorrow, and Representative Longworth of Ohio, the Republican leader, said tonight he was prepared to ask tor a unanimous consent agree ment for limited debate and a final vote during the day. Resolution Acceptable Mr. Longworth declared that in me main me resolution was ac ceptable, although he thought some of the language might be modified, particularly that relat ing to the want of authority and law for the making of leases. In view of the senate vote against such modification, however, it was not regarded as likely that amendments would be passed. with adoption or the measure by. the house, President Coolidge will have formal authority from congress to take the action he has taken, appointment of a special counsel to prosecute such suits civil and criminal, as the facts might warrant. There was a last minute effort in the senate to amend the Walsh resolution so as to direct the pres ident to seize the leased reserves in Wyoming and California, but the proposal by Senator Howell, Republican, Nebraska, was reject ed without a roll call. Two votes then followed on the Walsh reso lution, the first 90 to 0 to accent it and a substitute for the orig- nal Caraway resolution and the second to adopt tne resolution on its own merits. lee Over the High Hurdles ; ; ? -..
