WHAT FRANCIS KNOWS.
Introduced and Recommended -
to Pierce as a Lawyer. "

St Louis, Jan. 23.-Ex-Governor Da-
vid R. Francis. who returned today
from the Southwest, reiterated his
message to the Texas legislature sent
Tuesday denying the charges and
makes an additional statement as fol-
lows:
Il have received no answer to my
message, and don't expect to be
summoned before the Texas legisla-
ture and consider the incident closed
in that sense.
The only fact or circumstance
which could have given rise to such
charge has already been made pub
lie. This was that in 1900 II. Clay
Pierce told me that he wanted a law
yer of ability in Texas, and suggest
ed that he secure the services Of Bal
ley, and afterward introduced Bailey
to Pierce in St. Louis. On another oc-
casion, when ] met Bailey i'm Washing
ton or St Louis he told me that he
had not charged Pierce anything for
his services. ! have no knowledge of
whether he received any money or
whether he paid it. as is claimed. My
recollection is that Pierce did not
even tell me what he wanted the ser
vices OF Bailey for. In an interview
in Texas on my way to Mexico | ex-
pressed the hope that Senator Bailey
would be able to clear himself of the
charges brought against him and that
he would be reelected. I am glad
that he is to be returned to the SEN
ate"

REFUSED TO AMEND.
Effort to Modify Anti-Nepotism Bill
in the Senate.

Austin, Texas. Jan. 23.-The senate
convened at 10 o'clock. A telegram
was read from David r. Francis of st.
Louis, saying he had used no infiu-
ence to connect Senator Bailey with
the Waters Pierce Oil company.
There was up for consideration dur
ing the morning the anti.nepotism bill
on second reading. Several amend
ments offered we're slaughtered, but
no action was taken on the bill. as
the joint session for the election of a
United States senator interrupted.
The bill prevents any State, county,
district, city or precinct of the State
from employing for an Office to which
the respective office are elected any
relative to the third degree. The of
Tense is made punishable by fine and
removal from office.
Senator Stone offered an amendment
which provided that the law does not
apply to county, district OF precinct
Offices. This amendment was defeat
n ~ hf. -a-si.4i@- of -tS-ta ID
Senator Green offered an amend
ment that provided that relatives can
be employed when their salaries are
not paid out of the public fund. This
was defeated.
Senator Senter did not want the bill
to be made applicable to cities having
a commission form of government, be-
cause he said cities with that kind of
government knew best how to provide
for its own needs.
In the original bill is a provision
that an official may appoint one rela-
tive as a confidential clerk. Senator
Alexander introduced an amendment
to strike out the word confidential"
This was defeated.
Senator Looney, the author of the
bill, urged the passage, it being one
of the platform demands An attempt
was being made to emasculate it, he
said, by lacking on numerous amend
ments. He said the liberality had
been made in preparing the bill by al
lowing one person to be employed as
a confidential clerk.
Senator Skinner said that he was
opposed to even that liberal provision.
but in order to see the bill pass he was
willing to accept it.
Senator Green brought up the uues-
ton of whether members of a school
board could. under the law, employ a
teacher related to any member of the
board.
Senator Barrett offered an amend
ment that the bill be made applicable
only to State offices, but this was de-
feated.
The bill stood as it was introduced
when the time for the joint session
for the election of United States SEN
ator arrived.
Senator Hudspeth introduced a bill
amending the penal code with refer
ence to burglary. and other with refer
ence to witnesses testifying in their
own behalf.
The divorce bill was made a special
order for tomorrow morning.
The senate then adjourned until to-
morrow morning at 10 O'Clock.
