SAN FRANCIsco, April ia Washing.
ton special says: Major George H.

THE RAUM INQUIRY.
Representative Cooper Was Too Smar
to Be Trapped.


Representative Cooper Was Too Smart
to Be Trapped.
WASHINGTON, April 13.-In the senate
investigation today, 7. U. Buckley testi-
fed that Raum told him that he hy-
pothecated 100000 stock of the Ameri-
can Gypsum Mining company, of which
witness, Raum, w. w. Fleming and
Gen. W. W. Dudley were stockholders,
to George w. Lemon, as security for a
loan of $25, 900.
d. w. Hodgkins, discharged clerk,
testified that nine out of ten of the
cases that first came before him under
the completed files order, belonged to
George w. Lemon. For six wet ks after
the order was issued, fiv e-sevenths of
the cases in his division were Lemons.
James Morgan, of Indiana, a pension
attorney, testified that Cooper attended
to departmental matters for him without
compensation being offered, except $25,
which witness sent Hersey through
Cooper, and which Cooper returned at
once. Cooper's manner in introducing
him, Hersey, gave him the simple i'm
preston that Cooper recommended
Hersey as competent pension attor-
ney.
An important admission was obtained
from witness by Enloe, witness
acknowledging that he Enclosed the S25
to Cooper at the suggest on of Special
Examiner Greenwalt of the pension Of
fee. whom Raum sent to investigate
the matter. Greenwalt practically
framed the letter and sent the money
in a registered letter himself, instead of
by draft or check, to Cooper instead OF
Hersey, in order to fasten the matter on
Cooper and entrap him.
Greenwalt said the office suspected
that Hersey was calling up cases under
Cooper's name, and that Cooper was
party to it.
Witness admitted that it was decoy
letter. Witness denied writing the let
ter for Greenwalt, because he feared dis
barment. He was Republican,.
In response to question by Chair
man Wheeler. if knowing the matter
was wrong he sent the money for Green
walt, for seeing if member of congress
would accept money for illicit informa-
ton, witness said Greenwalt had fgu-
ratively taken charge of him, and he did
it because Greenwalt commanded and
requested it.
