"My library contained at least ten

There was particularly fine col

CARSON CONFIRMS
". {. MICK'S STORY
Attorney Tells About $50, 900
Commissions Paid to State
Life Officers.
A SENSATIONAL LETTER
IN 1T, 1T WAS SAID THAT THE
HUNGRY HOGS, SWEENEY AND
QUINN WANTED MORE"-TESTI-
MONY CONVINCING.

Indianapolis, Ind, Feb, 9. (SpL)-
At the states inquiry today into the
affairs of the State Life Insurance
company, John +. Carson, attorney,
corroborated fully the testimony of
w. f. Mick that President Sweeney
and Vive- President Quinn, of the
insurance company, received $4,000
each for voting in favor of the COM
panys buying the Stevenson build
ing.
Despite the affidavit produced yes
terday, in which William F. Church
man swore that he had paid no COM
mission to the State Life officers, the
testimony was that Churchman told
Carson that he had paid Sweeney and
Quinn the $4,000 and that Church
man himself had received $4,000.
Where s945, 900 Went.
1t was brought out that $4,000 of
the 100000 difference between the
$S5O,OOO received by the Churchman
heirs for their building and the $780,
900 purchase price, had been used
to pay debts against the estate. This
still leaves $1,000 in doubt. Carson
said that he did not know what be-
came of this. As now explained the
s950,000 paid for the building was
distributed as follows: $S50,000 to
the Churchman heirs, $4,000 to
Sweeney and Quinn. $4,000 to w. E.
Mick & Co., $4,000 to the payment
of Mrs. Churchman' S debts and $4,000
to w F. Churchman.
hungry Hogs Wanted More.
The most sensational part of Mr..
Carson's testimony was in regard to
a letter said to have been written by
William f. Churchman to Frank +.
Churchman. This letter, it was testi-
fled, stated that $4,000 had been
given to Sweeney. and Quinn, and
that ''the hungry hogs wanted more"
The letter was sal o have explained
that Sweeney and Quinn had insisted
upon getting 100000 from W. F.
Churchman.
John F. Duncan appeared in the
case this morning for the first time.
Mr. Coffin explained that Mr.. Duncan
was there to represent Sweeney and
Quinn personally. He explained that
he would continue to represent the
State Life Insurance company at the
inquiry, but that upon his advice,
Sweeney and Quinn had engaged Mr..
Duncan to look after their personal
interests.
Why the Case Was Dropped
Mr.. Carson said that he had been
employed by a certain person (un-
named throughout the testimony and
that the business of his client took
him to Roanoke, Va, to see William
F. Churchman. Mr.. Carson said that
during this interview he learned that
the Churchman heirs had been depriv-
ed of moneys that might be recovered
from the State Life officers. He then
saw the Churchman heirs in this city
and engaged with them to take up the
case. The case was dropped, Carson
explained, when it was ascertained
that a contract was in existence which
that the heirs should re-
ceive at least $S5O,00O for the Steven
son building and that amount net
should go to William F. Churchman
Mr.. Carson's testimony was given
in straightforward way and was free
of interruptions.
