is accused by Senator Morgan of an
attempt at bribery, makes the follow
ing statement:
This man Morgan approached me
several days ago and told me In the

because Peabody had failed to make
a case. told him that I had always
believed he was tied UP with the Pea
body crowd. but he vehemently denied
II. He pleaded with me to take him
TO Mr.. Herbert. and. although l
thought he was not honest with MS. l
did It. Fortunately l was In the room
and heard him solicit the bribe and
heard Mr.. Herbert emphatically refuse
to listen to his proposition.
"If Mr.. Morgan got this money. as
he said, on March End. then why did
he wait until to-day before he made
his statement public? That is ques.
tion he will have to answer before
we are through with him. just as we
will force him to tell what he got for

The Stephen eight-hour bill was
passed ON second reading in the Sen
ate March LIST without n roll call. The
minority reports of Senator Clayton
were voted down and the majority re-
port OF the labor committee accepted
with but two votes cast against II,
those OF Senators John Kennedy and
B. jefferson. Senators Morgan and Dc

nority reports, but changed their vote
on the final issue. Senator Baliinger
