on the 27th day of December, 1905 l Judge George W. Brown, who is one oi the attorneys for the packers in tho beef trust case gave to a MT. Hasler who Is reporter for The Inter- Ocean and who reports the proceedings of the beef trust" case q certain amount oi money, ostensibly as a Christmas pres ent, the exact amount do not know and directed him to give $100 of 1t to a MT. Eiwell, who is a reporter for the city press of Chicago, and who is also detailed to report the court pro- ceedings in this case and whose re- ports are used by all of the newspapers of Chicago and largely by the Associ- ated Press. MT. Hasler had intimated to Mir Elwelf before the day that he was going to receive sresent and on that day met him in the corridor of the Federal Building and handed him S1Oo. '.s1
 Mir: EIwell declined to take it and Hesler pushed 1t into his pocket with Judge Browns card and told Mir. FL well that Judge Brown had sent it to him. Efwell went to his employer and told him about it and his employer told him to take the money and give 1t to Judge Brown, which he did. and Judge Brown told him that he did not mean anything by 1t. that he just wanted to make him a Christmas present. I then requested Captain Porter to have an interview with Mir. HasIer, which he did and herewith enclose report of Cap tain Porter's interview, marked Ex- hibit A.
 On the fourth of January there ap- peared in The Inter-Ocean the article which I herewith enclose marked Ex- hibit B. This article was also sent with Captain Porter's report to Chief wilkie.
 This morning an article appeared in The nter-ocean. a copy of which I herewith enclose you, marked Exhibit c.
 The Inter-ocean circdlates quite gen. era1ly among the farmers. perhaps more so than, any other Chicago daily. The jury empaneled to try the immunity issues appeared in court yesterday morning. but owing to the illness of Mir. Hughes the hearing was postponed until ? o'clock today. The jury have been at large since they were first em- paneled.
 After Judge Brown knew that I was familiar with the facts he came to the office to see me. He had learned that we knew about the matter. His sx- planation was that complimentary ar- ticles had been written about him In the papers and he thought Mir. Elwell wrote them and that he gave the money to Blwell out of gratitude for what he had said. do not remember any arti- cIes especially complimentary to him, but am having the matter looked up.
 Judge Brown also admitted 10 me that he gave the Hesler money at the same time The amount that he gave Has Ter was not stated. Judge Brown stat cd that the money he gave was his own money and that his clients knew nothing about 1t. We are this morning the question as 10 whether we will lay the matter before The In- ter Ocean, Mr. Garfield and l laid the matter before Judge Humphrey at his rooms
 beg to call your attention to the fact that the judge returned yesterday and remained in Chicago over night and had every opportunity to read the article published in this morn ings' Inter-Ocean.
 Respectfully yours,
 c, B. Morrison.
