not known that above was paid but believed to
have been.
In addition to the above sum Of e3OG 300
which 1t has been shown that legislators
demanded for the passage or defeat of
measures pending before the General
Assembly, statistics show that the legis-
lators have received in cash brides the sum
OF 500 300, to say nothing of jobs which
have not been exposed.
Circuit Attorney Folk said tonight that
he was in receipt Of a communication from
an eX-State Senator, who had become
conscience stricken over the boodling
revelations, volunteering 10 appear before
the Grand Jury and tell what he knows of
Official corruption. Mr. Folk declined to
give the name OF the Senator, but said his
oher had been accepted and he would be
cited to appear and unbosom himself.
According to information received by
Mr.. Folk this morning, the insurance in
terests Of Missouri have paid 5000, 600 in
the last fifteen years to defeat legislation
inimical to them. His informant, whose
name IL withheld for the present, he said
represents some Of the largest companies
doing business In Missouri.
He said to Mr. Folk that the insurance
interests had been held up repeatedly but
at the recent session they decided that
they would be bled no longer. This man
will appear before the Grand July within
the next few days.
Ex-Leut. Gov, John A. Lee, having re-
turned from Chicago to tell more Doodle
secrets. acknowledged to Circuit Attorney
Joseph W. Folk to-day that he had been In
the pay OF the Tobacco Trust and the
Sugar Trust. In response to a "hunch"
from Daniel j. Kelley. now in Canada, Folk
asked Lee if he had received any money
from Havemeyer Of the Sugar Trust.
he sent me check through the mail
for 81 900 about the middle Of the last session
for writing some articles for him which
were used by his concern. 1t had nothing
TO do with legislation, replied Lee.
Didn't you receive money from the
American Tobacco Company two yean
aeoP" asked the Circuit Attorney.
Their Chicago attorney gave me $3.50
prior to the gathering Of the General As
sembly Of 1901, but it was for campaign
expenses.
Lees additional confession opens a big
field for speculation. His frequent trips
to New York and Chicago are recalled.
1t is said that letters are in existence which
Lee wrote to representatives of the sugar
and tobacco companies, and that these are
in Kelley's possession. In one of the
letters, according to Kelley, Lee suggested
that it would be good thing to have him
elected Governor, as he might be of service.
The tobacco money was paid two years
ago. 1t is perhaps a coincidence that
yesterday the law which forbids the sale of
cigarettes to minors under IS years of age
went into effect. There is no record that
any money was paid to defeat tobacco
legislation this year

Washington, Sept. 26.-Trade with
our next door neighbor on the south
continues to exceed all records. Fig
ures compiled by the department of

statistics, show that during the last is-
cal year our Mexican was
greater in both the export and import
business than in 1902, although that
year made a new highwater mark in
our trade with Mexico.
During the year ending June 80,
1908, the value of goods imported from
Mexico amounted to s41,313,711; while,
on the other hand. she purchased from
our merchants s42.257,106 worth. Ac-
eording to the latest available Next

total value OF goods imported by that
country IN the fiscal year 1902 came
