PUSHING CAPITOL PROBE
Names of We'll Known Pennsylvania
Politicians InUOIUed.

Harrisburg, Penn. April 30-Testimony OF a
sensational character involving tha names OF
prominent Pennsylvania politicians pro-
duced this afternoon during the examination by
the Capitol investigating commission OF ex-Rep-
resentative S. Marshall williams OF Pittsburg.
who is alleged to have accepted $4,000 to keep
quiet after John II. Sanderson. OF Philadelphia.
general contractor for the Capitol furnishings,
had refused to give him share of the $1,000
900 award for electrical fixtures for the build
ing
Williams was asked by Senator Dewalt OF the
commission. TO reveal the name of the party or
parties who had given the $4,000 in question.
Williams steadfastly refused TO admit that any
person had given him the money He declared
that he had obtained it from person in New
York on a note which he had given last August,
and which he declared would be due in August
next
Senator Dewat thought it strange that
the money transaction occurred at the same time
williams met with his disappointment at not
securing part Of the contract. Dewalt asked
williams II he had not instructed the Pennsyl-
vania State Board of Trade Of which he is sec
retary to pay Congressman Cassel S425. the
amount of money that had been previously re-
ferred TO as secured by the witness from the
unknown party williams admitted that IT was
true as to the 1925.
Is Congressman Cassel the who ad-
vanced you the OO0O?" asked the Senator. Il
refuse TO answer" replied the witness. But it
was a national official who did so, was IL not?"
Yes" "Wil you deny that it was Congressman
Cassel who did SO ?" Il refuse 10 answer"
In no way could the commission get Williams
10 admit that Cassel was the party in question.
II. Burd Cassel is member of Congress from
the Lancaster district and is president of the
Pennsylvania Construction Company of Mariet
ia, which furnished the 100000 Of metallic
furniture for the Capitol
That Sanderson bid % per cent off the maxi
mum price for the electrical fixtures of the
Capitol, but finally paid by the state at the
rate OF only per cent off, one of the inn
portant features brought out during the exami-
nation OF Williams. The witness said that he
had bid 20 per cent off and had promised a third
party, with whom he bid, 8 per cent off as a
bonus.
Williams said the information that the COM
mission had received about the money transac-
ton was the result of a scheiie concoctcd
against him during November. 1909, when 1t
was known that he actively engaged in the
two-cent fare fight, and that he would like to
produce witnesses in rebuttal
