SHEA FIRST ASKED $4,000
For Tying Up chicago Traf1c. but Finally
Accent eel EI,5OO.

CHICAGO, Dec. SIN the midst of a cross
examination which tested every point of
his testimony Albert Young. former or
ganizer Of the International Brotherhood
of Transfers, testified to-day that 5000
was demanded by Cornelius p. Shea for
calling the teamsters' strike of lGD5, which
made the streets of Chicago scenes Of riot
and warfare for 100 days.
Young declared that Shca told him of his
efforts to get 5000 to call the strike. Fail
ing To get the larger amount, Snea ac-
cepted $500 of a fund Of 81 500 provided by
Robert Noren, president of the Garment
Workers Union.
Efforts 10 show that Young had drunk
much intoxicating liquor at the time that
the brides were accepted for calling the
strike were not successful.
Il was on the water wagon, said Young,
I'VE went to many saloons all night, but
| drank no intoXiCants.
We sat about a table in a saloon at the
Stock Exchange building" he went on,
and as Robert Noren, president of the
garment orkers' union, counted out the
rolls Of $500 shea pushed them across the
table 10 each of us. AftPrward Shea told
me about trying TO get 5000. This mount,
he said, would have been satisfactory.
The defence got another blow in the
cross-examinatlon when Young testified
that Charles Dold, former president Of the
Federation Of Labor, guaranteed. that the
federation would stand all expenses Of
defending the strikers. Heretofore no
evidence duplicating the officers Of the
federation had appeared.
Evidence Of conspiracy against the trade
of the entire city was part Of Eoung's tes-
timony.
I'M tie up Chicago" is the threat made
by Shea, according to Young. The threat
was made when the strike was at IT'S height
and when the streets were scenes OF riot
and hloodshed.
Shea meant. according to the witness, to
call out every telTster in the city and to
bring the trade of Chicago to a %standstill.
An admission by the witness showed that
he was himself one OF the rims LEADERS OF the
s~luRgers. He admitted that he and Jerry
Mccarthy had climled into "A wagon and
had dragged the driver from his seat and
beaten him.
That immunity during the strike was
granted TO the teaming interests Of Harry
Gibbons, candidate for Sheriff, in return
for his favors in signing bonds Of pickets
who were arrested, was among the startling
admissions made by Young.

THIRTY YEARS IN TIE SENATE.
Senator Teller says Everything Has

WASHINGTON, Dec. Snow the Senate
Chamber itself doesn't seem widely differ
ent from what it was then; but everything
else is changed. None Of the men who
was here then is here to-day, and fourteen
more seats are in use. Seven States have
been admitted since then, you know"
This was said by Henry NJ. Teller, senior
Senator from Colorado, and the time he
spoke of was thirty years ago, when he
first became a member of that body, Of
which he is still a member To-Day was
the thirtieth anniversary OF MIR. Teller's
entrance into the Senate. 1t was on De-
cember 3, 1870, that he was sworn in for
the first time.

Mr.. Teller, with a look in his eyes that went
much further than the confines of the Senate

An UnOflciRI Estimate Puts IEls Plurality
Over Bruce as 36,452.

County Clerk Hartzheim of Brooklyn
received word from Secretary of State
O'Brien yesterday that he was anxiously
awaiting the arrival of the returns from
Kings county. Hartzheim at once be-
came a busy man and one Of his clerks,
William Ferris, started out to spur the
Aldermen in their work. The Aldermen,
however, said that they were at a standstill
because Supreme our Justice Dickcy
was still engaged on the contest in the
Ninth Assembly district and until he de-
cided the matter 1t would be impossible
to make known the re suit OF the canvass,
as the Justice had enjoined them from
tabulating the returns until he had decided
the Ninth Assembly district contest.
Justice Dickey's decision is expected
to-day. According to an unofficial source
it was said Yesterday that the returns
would show that the figures for Lieutenant
