Madison, March

The Introduction of the books OF Mr..
Stephenson, in which are intermingIed
his private accounts with The
accounts of the campaign, yester-
day formed the basis of argu,
ments started by Attorney Hyzer and
participated in by all the members of
the investigating committee. The
lawyer would not permit them entered
IN evidence because in that case they
would be thrown open to eyerybody's
Inspection
No court would require this. he
declared. What would be done in a
court room under similar circumstan.
csc would be to excuse the jury and
hear arguments on the competency
and materiaIity Of the documents. We
are willing to submit our books under
similar conditions"
Senator Husting pointed out that it
was not the fault Of the committee
that Senator Stephenson SO inter
mingled his private and campaign ac-
counts that it necessarily was impos-
sible to go into the one without GET
ting possession Of the other. Senator
Morris recalled the insurance inves-
tigation in New York where ali pri-
vate books and documents were in
trOduced in evidence An agreement
was finally reached by which the com
mittee has full access to the books.
but no names are to be mentioned for
publicity unless they are found con
nected with the campaign.
Another point of controversy was
whether OF not Mr.. Van CIeve was to
be required to divulge the names of
sub-agents that he employed. Mr..
Van C.eye argued that the amounts
were so small that it was fully appar-
ent that they learned their money"
Upon a suggestion of Attorney Hyzer
the witnesses gave all the names that
were asked for. Mr.. Van CIeve en-
plOyed some forty men at about S. a
day and seven or eight men at $40 a
day. f. E. Moves, of the Marinette
Eagle-Star was found to have received

Van CIeVe. explained thai 1hey had his
support anyway, but he wanted more
of it. The newspaper man had given
editorials and v,lira-,1ne in heba1f Of
cannaion hur Mr. Van
C1eye. felt thar more of the writa-une
