SECRETARY BEFORE HOUSE

Threatened Representative Loud Of
Michigan With Loss Of His Job
Mr.. Lilley Corrects Testimony Of
MIR. Taylor.

"
Washington, D. G., April 3.-That
the attorney of the Electric Boat Co.
was pressing and bearing down. up
on a member of congress in reference
to submarine boat legislation, was
charged yesterday before the special
committee Of the house committee

Electric Boat company. The charge
was made by Frank l.. Edinborough
of Bay City, Mich, a state senator
and former secretary to Congressman.
Loud of that state, member of the
house committee on naval affairs. Mr..
Marlborough testified that the attor-
ney in question was w. D. Gordon
and that the member Of congress
whom he was pressing was Mr.. Loud.
Mr.. Marlborough was not a willing
witness and at first refused to answer
certain questions on the ground that
they were confidential, owing to the
fact that he had been private secre-
tary to Mr.. Loud, but Mr.. Loud, re-
leased him from such obligations and
he then told his story.
Mr.. Marlborough produced an an
onymous letter which, he said, he
had received in Bay City on Febru-
ary 18th from Washing ton, D. O.,
4 stating that Mr.. Loud had voted for
a $1,476,000 graft in naval commit
4 tee, that there was a story in circu-
y lation that the Holland people had
secured a prominent attorney to be-
come candidate for congress against
Mr.. Loud, and that Mr.. Loud had
finally agreed to vote for the sub
marine bill on the condition that the
attorney withdraw as candidate.
s8 Other witnesses Of the day were
Silas T.. Berger, former president Of
the Berger Subsurface Torpedo boat
company, and August Treadwell, Jr.
assistant secretary treasurer Of the
Electric Boat company. Both denied
that their companies had used any In
proper influence to secure favorable
legislation.
Mr.. Lilley yesterday made state.
ment correcting part of the testi-
mony given Wednesday before the
committee Of the house by Mr.. Frank
lin Taylor Of Waterbury. Conn. II

ment concerning the possible result o.
