A phalanx of lawyers, filing Into the temporary hearing room aet up by Chairman Brookhart and Senator Wheeler; special of the senate, made clear and certain the refusal of M. 8. Daugherty and his associates to allow the financial transactions of Harry H. Daugherty, former attorney general, ,or Jess E. Smith, the general's friend and bumper, now dead, in the Midland National bank to be traced out by examination or testimony. The bank, controlled by M. 8. Daugherty, struck back at the senatorial Inquirers by a hastily arranged legal proceeding which resulted in a temporary restraining order directed to the senators, and served on them as they sat, seeking to stop their inquiry. No recourse was left the" committee, Chairman Brookhart said, but to return to Washington and take up proceedings, which have been suspended, and seek to array before the bar of the senate on tho charge of contempt the bank officials. TELLS OF CERTIFICATES. The senate subcommittee did. however, through John Phelan, an examiner In its own employ. who was allowed to search the Midland bank records for hours several weeka ago, learn that Harry M. Daugherty's name was shown on certificates of deposit in the Midland bank to the total of 176,060. Phelon further said, testifying from memory, that he found two or three certificates of deposit ranging up to '139.000 and ftftO.OOO in totals in the bank record, tie likewise said that four certificates, canceled as paid, made out to "J.

The protest was aimed particularly at the proposal to exclude all aliens who never can become American thrust which the ambassador said was manifestly aimed at Japan. He declared enactment of such a law would "seriously offend the Just pride" of the Japanese nation and that the grave consequences" should ba considered carefully before action was taken. A copy of the bote, reaching the senate Just as it was convening, caused a decided stir among senators, it was psssed around and talked over In many whispered consultation. The effect on the pending legislation could not be immediately assessed. COAST SEN ATORATT ACKS. Tbs Japanese note was characterised by Senator Shortridgs, Republican, in a senate speech as a "spurious. verbose communication, unfounded in fact" The "gentlemen's agreement" may have worked successfully from the Japanese viewpoint. Senator Short-ridsaid, 'nut It haa not been to California or the United ... States. He promised later to give the senate facts to prove the conclusions set forth in the note are erroneous. In resflirming the prtnrtpls of the "agreement." the Japanese .ambassador's letter to Secretary Hughes denied charges by Paclftc coast senators that the understanding has not been observed scrupulously, it wss asserted that Japan was willing lo continue the arrangement in force, afth full promise of its observance, but would look with serious doubt upon proposals for a more drastic exclusion provision.
