the boat and climbed on the upturned

any complaints continued Inspector
Cochran, and 1 so informed the sem
ator. On Feb. 3, 1902, 1 received a
telephone message from Senator Bur-
ton asking me to call on him at his
Office. After discussing several mat
tiers in which the Brooks Brokerage
company, the predecessor of the Rialto
company, was involved, Senator Bur-
ton told me that he wished to repre-
sent the Rialto company in matters
before the department. for which he
was to receive large fee.
He assured me that he did not wish
to antagonize the department. He also
said that he had consulted several Of
his colleagues in the senate. and that
they had assured him that his con-
nection with the Rialto company was
legal, and that many senators had in
creased their incomes In similar ways
Senator Burton said he had lost $1O,-
600 recently, for which he was not
legally responsible, but which he
wished to repay, and that his fees
would revert to that use."

spector at Cincinnati, testified that
he had accompanied Inspector Coch-
ran to Senator Burton's Office on the
evening that the indictment became
known in Washington He substanti-
ated Cochran's testimony, and testi-
fed that Burton said that he had ap-
peared "only as an attorney for the
Rialto company before the postoffice
department, and not as United
States senator"

was comptroller for the Rialto COM
pany on March 26, 1903, testified. Il
was called into the Office. of Mr.. Ma
haney, the vice president, and there
