WASHINGTON, I). C, June 13.
Admitting thnt for years he had been
counsel for the Dultith & Iron Range,
and tho Duliith, Me.snbn & Northern
railroads, subsidiaries of the United
States Steel corjMrationf Frank B.
Kellogg, government "trust buster,"
this afternoon testified before the
Stanley steel investigating committee
that his firm of Davis, Kellogg k
Severance, was still counsel for these
roads and other companies connected
with the strcel trust.
"I have no npologies to make re
garding my services for these com
panies," Kellogg testified. "Their
affairs were purely local and had no
direct connection with the steel cor
poration. "In 1900 I conducted n oabe for
these. companies in the Minnesota oil
fields and presented a bill for $15,
000. Tho bill had-to bo endorsed by
the steel corporation officials. Since
1007 I have given nvy time, practical
jy exclusively, m me government in
the Standard Oil eases. My firm,
however, continued to take all proper
business coming its way."
At the conclusion of Kellogg's tes
timony, Chnirraan Stanley said:
"The chairman nnd the committee
men want to know how nnd why cer
tain railroads are ablo to pay 100 and
150 per cent dividends nnd put four
to five millions into the surplus when
their capital is only four or five mil
lions. Wo will summon n former
president of tho United States, J.
Pierpont Morgan or any one else un
til we get the whole truth."

WASHINGTON, D. C, Juno 13.
Senators Culberson (democrat,
Texas) and Bacon (democrat, Geor
gia), in the senate this afternoon
chalenged the action of Vice Presi
dent Sherman in casting the deciding
vote in favor of the Bristow amend
ment to the direct election resolution.
They said Sherman had no right to
vote upon such n. resolution. Sena
tor Gallinger (republican, New
Hampshire defended Sherman's ac
tion. Congressman Underwood ( demo
crat, Alabama), majority leader in
the house, said today that ho doubt
ed .whether the houso democrats
would support tho Bristow amend
ment. WASHINGTON, D. C. June 13.
That a sharp skirmish Is likely to oc
cur when the amended resolution for
the direct, election of United, States,
senators as adopted last night goes
to conference Is tho general predic
tion here today. Party politics, It Is
asserted, will take a prominent part
In the proceedings, but most politi
cians here believe that tho result of
the conference wilt bo that tho son
ate amendment will be tackled to tho
resolution finally sent to tho stato
legislatures for ratification. Tho fin
al attempt to inject party politics In-
t otho proposition will come, it Is be
lieved, when legislators of tho South
ern states voice democratic objection
to the resolution on tho ground of
federal dictation of states rights.
Vote (14 to 21.
The senate last night passed tho
bill tor the direct election of senators.
Vote sixty-four to twenty-four. Tho
Drlstow amendment, giving federal
government supervision to such elec
tions wns adopted forty-flvo to fourty
fonr, the vlco president casting tho
deciding ballot. Sonator Reed of
Missouri protested against tho vlco
president casting his, deciding voto.
An amendment by Sonator Bacon,
qualifying tho Bristow amendment to
prohibit federnl supervision of elec
tions unless tho stnto legislature re
fused or failed to act, was defeated
forty-six to forty-three, tho resolution
as amended was thou finally adopted
sixty-four to twonty-four.
Clarko Against.
Tho voto of n singlo democrat In
tho sonato Clarko of Arkansas who
voted against tho other membors of
his party, and favored tho Bristow
amendment, m a do possible tho tlo
which Vlco President Shorman'a do
cldlng voto turned Into victory for
tho Kausau. Had Clark voted with
tho democrats politicians today point
out, tho party would havo been suc
cessful In Its attempt to put before,
tho republican sonato a rosolutlon
which It is bollovcd, would havo fall
o dto pass. That tho domocrats
sought to forco tho republicans to
voto ou tho direct election resolution
as It camo from tlin houso expecting
It would bo defeated, thus making
campaign material, Is tho assertion
of politicians hero.
Negro Suffrage Up.
Tho question of nogro suffrage la
tho real point at Issuo. Tho resolu
tion, as It passed tho houso, specifi
cally provided that tho various states
should control tho tlmo, placo und
manner of holding elections. Tho
Bristow amendment, which was a
substitute, omits, tho provision of tho
houso and by lnferenco permits fed
eral control of elections. Tho langu
age applying directly to tho mattor o
elections Is almost Identical with that
In the clause of thu constitution pro
