A—-14 “NEALHINTS FRAD INTENNESSEEVOTE Probe Would Embarrass Sen- ator Brock and Gov. Horton, Says Vanquished. By the Associated Press. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., August 11. ~Dr. John R. Neal, defeated candi- date for the United States Senate short torm, said in a formal statement made m’hl‘c today that, in his opinion, the vestigation asked by him of the Nye Senatorial Committee would “place both Senator W. E. Brock and Gov. Henry H. Horton in embarrassing posi- tions.” Dr. Neal predicted that Senator! Brock would find difficulty in obtaining | his Senate seat and that Memphis would receive much notoristy from the Nye Committee investigation. As a re- sult of this investigation, Dr. Neal said, election fraud in that city would be ended. It was at Dr. Neal's request that Sen- ator Nye, chairman of the Senatorial Primary Investigation Commitiee, was believed to have sent investigators to Memphis to observe last Thursday's election, which included two senatorial contests. “Because' of the fact that Brock identified himself with Gov. Horton's campaign from start to finish, it is rea- sonable that. the expenditures and ma- neuvers of the two candidates will be identified together in the probe,” Dr. Neal said. v His statement said that “Negroes and Republicans by the thousand voted in the Democratic primary. The whole disclosure will place both Senator Brock and Gov. Horton in extremely embar- yassing positions, and, in my opinion, Senator Brock will experience great dif- ficulty in obtaining his seat in the Sen- ate.” NEW HEARING HELD SENATOR W. E. BROCK (top).

By the Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, August 11.—A rigid cross-examination of James F. Brennan and Edward A. Cunha, who &mecmed ‘Thomas J. Mooney and arren K. Billings for the Preparedness day parade bombing here in 1916 is ex- pected when justices of the State Su- preme Court resume their hearing to- day on Billings' application for a pardon. Brennan and Cunha, who obtained a wverdict calling for the death penalty, testified last week regarding circum- stances connected with the prosecution and reiterated their belief in the guilt of Mooney and Billings. Edwin V. McKenzie, attorney for Billings, indicated he would question Brennan and Cunha closely on whether their faith in the testimony which convicted Billings and Mooney had been shaken by disclosures in recent years. At the outset of the hearing John MacDonald, principal State’s witness in the trials, repudiated his testimony identifying.Billings and Mooney as the ‘bombers.
