IS (AP). The liberal press here has been angered by the failure of the electoral bill for the forthcoming presidential elections In Nicaragua to pass the house of representatives. The bill, as approved by the American legation, in accordance with the American promise to supervise the coming elections, was passed by the senate, but the houso adopted a changed and amended measure. GenThe liberal newspapers accuse eral Chamoro, the former president, of controlling the house in us atmune toward the original bill, which would have olaced an American as president The bill as of the board of elections. amended by the house merely placed a as an American counselor on the board of elections. The liberals also charge that the conservatives have broken the agree ment signed at Tipltapa in behalf of the liberals and conservatives at the urging of Henry L. Stimson, personal representative of President Coolldge, last year. The conservative attitude Is that they are willing to accept supervision of the 1928 elections by the United States, but that they are not obliged to nass a law which would be uncon stltutlonal and which would Jeopardize the sovereignty of Nicaragua. They quote Mr. Stimson as saying that the United states would ooservo me eiec Hons, but not control them. The liberals contend that the law as passed by the house takes the teeth from the senate law by tying the hands of the proposed American electoral dictator.

Salt Lake county Jail's erstwhll kangaroo court, under the administration of Sheriff Benjamin R. Harries, described in detail by former Inmates, Included several Instances of purported acts of extreme violence, according totestlmony adduced on the opening day of Jard W. Summer-hay'- s suit for 110,000 damages against the former sheriff. The case Is on trial before Judge Ephralm Hanson and a Jury In the Third district court. Summerhaya, suing the sheriff and W. J. Irvine, Jailer, and also Maryland Casualty company, bondsmen, charges that while he was Incarcerated at the Jail March 8, 1928, he was tried by the "kangaroo court" and sentenced to a flogging; that he suffered severe Injuries to his back and legs, because he refused to contribute to a tobacco fund. Hyrum A. Barton testified to alleged outrages against himself, June 2, 1925. for the purpose, on the part of the plaintiff, of showing that the "court" was an Institution at the Jail and conducted with full knowledge of the sheriff and his deputy. He said that the "judge," one of she prisoners, demanded his money, and he ssld he had nothing to do with the court and It would get no moneey out of him. He said further another prisoner went upstairs and Deputy Irvine returned The Judge, he aald, senwith him. tenced him to twenty lashes, and the prisoners "rushed him." Barton was then, he said, taken to a pool table, laid face down and a Norwegian administered five lashes across the kidneys. When he still refused to assign 80 rents, they tore his clothing. Part of the punishment, he said, consisted of beating hla face on the pool table, making his nose bleed. Irvine, he said, subsequently said he was foolish to take a beating like that for SO cents. When he went before the sheriff, he said, with some evidences of his condition, the sheriff "looked me over and smiled." The witness said that Irvine waited until they had laid him on the table, then left the room, which was In the basement, but watched from the door, which was ajar. The deputy stopped the proceeding, he said, when his outcries persisted. C. Malln, testifying to the period between November I and 21. IMS, said he paid, and was not punished. However, he said, he saw one prisoner put in a washing machine full of water, and another beaten with a belt.
