Agreement Not to Prosecute.

@. That is that Nuzum did? a.
Yes. 1t was his brother, Richard
Nuzum, went back. And that it was
agreed between the Great Northern
people and the Nuzums that Gordon
should not be prosecuted.
O. Why not prosecute him? A..
They claim that the Great Northern
officials had sent Gordon money for
corruption purposes, and that the
Great Northern could not prosecute
Gordon without being involved them
selves.
@. When was this conversation?
A. The latter part of October, 1905.
Q. Did he state the names of the
Great Northern officials? A. | can
only say my inference was that it
was Mr.. Begg. He was talking about
their general counsel.

Q. Did he tell you what other per-
sons had seen the correspondence?

Frank Post, Frank Graves and Judge
Chadwick and showed them the en-
tire correspondence. Frank Post told
me that he had seen the correspond
ence. and he said that he was gull
ty. He said the correspondence was
as conclusive as the correspondence
between Archbold of the Standard
Oil company and Foraker. And
Frank Graves also told Mr.. Happy
and myself that he had seen it and
that he was guilty.
@. Who was guilty? a. Root.
And Graves said that Root was gull

We're guilty.
Q. Did Nuzum say that Judge
Chadwick had seen this correspond
ence? A. Yes. But | understand
since, Frank Post tells me, that be

formed of the contents. And Cannon
of the Northern Pacific told me he
had been told the same thing. and
Judge Sullivan told me he knew il
also.

the story that Gordon contemplated
suicide
n. f. Nuzum said: II have abso-
lutely nothing to say to the commit
tee other than thac nine-tenths of
the stuff that comes to me that
should have told Hindman is old
maids gossip" He declined to tes-
tify further on the ground that hi;
information was privileged.

Attorney Hindman testified:
Gordon Greatly Agitated.

II was having a talk with "Nult'
Judge Gordon got into difficulty he
came to their firm labOring under
great stress and was contemplating
suicide that he gave the firm bund-
le of correspondence between Judge
Root and Judge Gordon and between
Gordon and the Great Northern Of
fcials at ST. Paul and the general
counsel there; that among this cor
respondence were receipts from Judge
Root for money, also letter asking
Judge Gordon for more money, which
showed that Root either did receive
or was to receive 100000 for the
opinion in the tax cases that went up
from Seattle, and $4,000 for de-
cison in the construction of the
commission case. IL also stated
that among the papers was an orl-
ginal copy of an opinion Of the su-
preme court written by Gordon, sub
mitted by him to the general coun-
sci and by the latter approved, and
then transmitted to Root, who sub
mitted it as the opinion of the court;
that the original of this opinion
written by Gordon was turned over
to them and is now in their possess
ion."
@. Turned over to whom? A.
Turned over to the Nuzums by Cor
don.
'He also said he telegraphed back
to st. Paul to one of the officials
there and that they met him half
way in a private car, and that he
came on back with them in the pri-
vate car"

Nuzum Told Cannon.

Q. Did he say Nuzum told him?
A. Yes. Cannon told me Nuzum
told him was over in Sullivan s
office, and he said What do YOU
think about this Root matter?" ile
said, Have the Nuzums told you"
| said. Yes, and have taken the
matter up with Judge Crow TODAY
and told him all about it," He said,
Did you tell the Nuzums that you
did it?'' | said mo. | wish you
would tell them He said. Wait
a moment" and called Multi Nuzum
on the telephone and told him.
When he put up the phone, he said,
"Nuzum says it is all right; let it
go as it is
Q. When did you tell Crow? A.
The Monday before it came out in
the supreme court.
Q. Do you know that Begg did
come out here about that time? A.
He didn't tell me the exact time.

in Seattle the latter part of Aug
ust.
@. Did he tell you there were
receipts in the correspondence? A..
Yes
Q. Was anything said about a
loan? A. No., that came from an
other party. Judge Gordon had talk

and that he went back to see them
and they said, why hell, yes. Let
him have it. 1t won't be the first
Judge that we have loaned money
to-"
f. j. Cannon, attorney for the
Northern Pacific testified:
The only conversation | ever had
was with Dick Nuzum, and that was
most indefinite. He said he repre-
sented Gordon and that the Great
Northern dare not prosecute him. He
said that he had the papers to show
they dare not. He did not tell me
what those papers We're. l avoided
conversation with him. felt that
the best thing for me was to keep
out OF it. Judge Grow came to see
me one day and asked me if | knew
anything about it, and told him
Nuzum said he had some papers. ="

The. last issue Of the DeLand News
states that Mr.. Thomas C. Budding
ton, of Hawks Park, has spent the
week in DeLand getting out printed
information relative to the advan-
tages of opening up Mosquito Inlet
for ocean vessels and establishing a
port of entry there. He has prepared
a very comprehensive story of the
matter, and has gotten the most
of it.in print. He will call upon the
leading citizens of VoIusia and the
interior counties of this section of the
state and urge their cooperation in
getting the port opened and the chan
mel made permanent; There is al,
ready deep water at this inlet, and
all that is needed to maintain the
deep water and make the channel
permanent is concrete work that will
cost the government a mere baga-
telle. With the es establishment of a
port of entry there and a regular line
of ocean steamers there is no ques-
ton that we should be given better
freight rates in this section of the
state, and that there would soon be
arailroad built to the inland coun-
ties, such as Orange, Lake, Polk, and
Osceola. The News hopes that Mr..
Buddington, who is only a represen-
tative of the leading business men of
New Smyrna. will receive every en-
couragement in his efforts.

Frank CEark's Open Denial

In an open letter directed to the
editor of the Miami Metropolis
Congressman Frank Clark denies the
statement made in that paper that
he, Clark, had been "rebuked" by
his colleagues for his course in con-
,gress on the tariff question and that
he had also been defeated for re-elec-
ton as secretary of the National
Democratic congressional commit
tee, all Of which caused him to be
jdiscredited among his party associa-
tions, etc.
The following paragraphs of gen.
-eneral interest are taken from Mr..
Clark's letter to the Metropolis:
Each delegation in congress elects
its own member of the congressional
committee and such member holds
for two years. Two years ago Mr..
SparLman and Mr.. Lamar elected
me as the Florida member of that
committee. When the committee
met two years ago 10 organize, | was
unanimously chosen over my protest
as secretary: Iaeeepted the position
as a duty placed upon me.by my
associates and served in that capaci-
ty, and in the campaign last year not
only spent many months of hard
work but more than a thousand dol
lars Of hard cash out of my own
pocket for the benefit Of the Demo-
cratic cause.
when my term expired a few
weeks ago and it became necessary
for r.our delegation to again elect a
member of this committee, both Col.
Sparkman and Mr.. Mays expressed
the desire for me to retain the place.
declined it and suggested that we
elect Mr.. Mays as the Florida men,
ber of the new committee. Colonel
Sparkman agreed to this and Mr..
Mays was elected.
Not being a member of the COM
mittee / was in no sense a candidate
for secretary of it and therefore
could not have been 'rebuked' in !
