airy Dill Case Fails to Remember.
The House committee investigating the
scandal in the fee and salary act of 1891
yesterday had Andrew j. Behamer, of FL
wood the foreman of the enrolling force
in the session of 1891, ON the stand Mes
tors testimony, it will be remembered,
when he faced the engrossed bill by the
side of the enrolled bill was that false
sheet had been placed before him to be
copied and that he had not made the
error without being deceived himself He
said that Beheimer had given him the
parts he had copied. Beheimer denied that
he even knew anything about the affair.
He said he had distributed the bill, as was
his duty, among the clerks and that so far
as he knew they nad done their work faith
fully. The Legislature he said, was an
honest one. He told about the evening
when Speaker Mason j. Niblack and others
broke open the desk and found the en-
rolled bill, partly finished, his story agree
ing very nearly with that already told in
testimony. He denied having acquaintance
with George Ray. Denials met every ques-
tion,, giving the Attorney general no lever
age by which to extract any further knowl-
edge the witness might have.
The committee may conclude not to call
other witnesses. Most of the members
went home last night and will take the day
to think about their report. Attorney-gen-
eral ketcham says this sort OF trifiing with
to Zoe made a crime, and 1t Is probable the
committee will report bill providing tor
more stringent rules and regulations over the
enrolling room. Clerks will be required to
write their initials on the pages and the
name of the clerk from whom the sections
copied came to them. This will be done
to indicate through whose hands the sew
eral sections have passed. 1t is the i'm
preston of the committee that the change
of the page in this case was done after
the bill had been enrolled and vetoed by
the Governor, and before it was sent to
the Secretary of State. Mr.. Ketcham says
this mutilatioD of enrolled bills has occurred
before, but not in SO fragrant an instance as
this.
1t is rumored that the full details Of the
scene in the enrolling room on the night
when Speaker Niback blocked the game
was not brought out in testimony because
Il would not tend to throw light on the
question at issue. Principal Clerk New
kirk was denounced In mercness terms
when the Speaker found what was going on
and clerks present. Newkirk resented
the language used toward himself and
personal conflict was seriously threatened.
The Speaker charged that New!Sirk had
sold out and the outraged leaders of the
majority, to whom a fee and salary law
was important from party standpoint,
threatened to shoot him If he did not de-
at once. This extreme of excitement was
only limited at in Mr.. Nibacks testimony
Nothing has been secured in testimony
that connects Newkirk conclusvely with
the mutilation of Section 80. TIE session
of 1891 was noted for having the most UNI
scrupulous lobby that has been known for
many years past.
