TOLD STOCK AND TURNER
TO TELL ALL THEY KNEW.
Former Governor johnson Says He
Was Consulted by Suburban Rail-

Former Governor Charles P. johnson. at
torney for the Suburban Railway, gave the
Republic the following signed statement
yesterday:
"Mr. Stock and Mr.. Turner consulted me
in relation to the matter now under investi-
cation by the Grand Jury, and as their
attorney I advised them to go before the
Jury and tell all they know about the trans
action. Mr.. Turner said he did not care
about the money involved. but he did about
this thing of having to buy to get any leg
islation wanted for his road. He said II
seemed that no public enterprise could be
started without the parties involved having
to pay for necessary legislation. He, for
one would like to see 1t stopped and would
go before the Grand Jury and tell all about
this proposition, as made to pass the Subur-
ban bill. At the time he was told it would
take so much to insure the passage of the
bill for expenses, and the money was placed
on deposit Mr.. Turner was informed in a
general way as to how much money was
necessary. but as to the details he was not
informed. as Mr.. Stock had that matter

BILL HISTORY;
PASSAGE IN ASSEMBLY.

not to be outdone, and the Central Traction
bill came to the front.
The Central Traction Company bill, which
was plainly introduced in case the North
and South bill was vetoed, had it's first
reading in the House March 8, 1898. 1t was
introduced by Mr.. Ritter. The United Trac-
ton Company bill was introduced March Is
by Mr.. MADEIRA, and March % was referred
to the Committee on Railroads. 1t was al
most Identical with the former bill.
March % the Central Traction Company
bill was passed by the House. and March
% was signed by Speaker Lloyd. March sc
the Council also passed the bill. and 1t was
then presented to the Mayor for signature.
Mayor Zeigenhein in April vetoed the bill.
On this same day he also vetoed the North
and South bill and in his report to the
House alluded to the North and South bill
and the similarity of the two.
In the House of Delegates the Central
Traction bill was passed over the Mayors
veto April II by the following vote: F'or.-

On the same day the Council also passed
the bill over the Mayors veto. The vote in
the Council was as follows: For-Brink-
meyer. Carroll. Cast, Gaus. Hagan, Heckel.
KratZ, Thuner and Uthoff. Against-Wig-
gins and Meier. Absent-Ives.
1t was thought that the bill would not be
vetoed by the Moyor on account of his
friendship for George ]. Kobusch, who was
largely interested in the enterprise. but to
the surprise of all came the veto. Then
came the passage of the bill over the
Mayors veto in the same session in which
the report of the veto was received from
the Mayors office.
Connected with the passage of the bill
over the Mayors veto many strange sto-
rieS were set on foot. 1t was alleged that
nearly every member of the House and
Council had been heavily bribed, and in
connection the names of prominent members
who had distributed the money were men
toned.
The Grand Jury met, and the matter was
supposed to have been carefully investigat-
ed by that body, but no indietm nts were
returned. and the matter gradually dropped
out of the public memory.
As House Bill No. 451, the Central Trac-
tion bill read as follows: IAN ordinance
authorizing the Central tract on company
of st. Louis to construct. operate and main-
tain a single and double track passenger
railroad on, over and along and across
certain streets, avenuss. highways. rail-
ways. bridges and city blocks in the city
of St. Louis, and to operate its line OF
railroad by electric power and to run over
the tracks of other roads, and to acquire
and convey by lease, purchase or 3. Its
own property and franchises Of the prop
erty and franchises of other street railway
companies in the city of ST. Louis and to
operate same"
In returning the Central Traction Com
pany bill unapproved, Mayor Ziegenhein
said: THE bill Is open to the same objec-
tions as House Bill No. 80 Ghe North and
South biD, also returned at this same time,
in that IC permits an indirect method OF
consolidation by the railroad companies of
St. Louis under the guise of a lease or sale.
Also. it permits twin rails or twin tracks
to be laid on many of our narrow streets
already congested by the traffic to which
they are subjected. If this bill should be-
come law the city of st. Louis is. for all
practical purposes. granting away at one
fell swoop all undisposed-of railway fran
chises, instead of doing to from time to
time, as the apparent and actual needs of
the people may demand and justify. If
proof is wanting OF the rapidly increasing
value of these franchises. it will be found
in the fact that this bill offers $3.50. 600 more
than was offered short time ago for SUBJ
stantially the same franchises under House
Bill No. 59.''
