was $50 lin it" for signing the paper in
the hands of ex-senator John J. Coyle of
Philadelphia TO stand by Mr. jerks for
Senator, and that afterward Mr.. Spatz
Offered him 500.
"A reputable member of the House"
Mr. Miller continued, told me that he
thought the name Of Representative John

Mr. Miller produced small memoran-
dun book from which he read the follow
ing:

Coyle in the corridor of the capitol just
prior to the House Democratic caucus 10

Coyle said: "You help us out, and I'll
