Columbia, May 21.--The prosecu-
tons effort in the dispensary inves-
tigation today was to fortify the state
ment of Lewis ". Parker, w. A.
Clarke and other prominent Carolin-
ians. who swore some time ago that
SIM Lanahan. OF the Baltimore Lana
Aan LIQUOR firm, told them he had to
pay 81 case relate to the purchas
lng board and fifty cents case to To-
sal dispensers to do business in this
state. and that Cpl C. L. Blease was
the Lanahan agent in this state.
William Lanahfn. sole survivor of
the firm, was on the stand today. He
was satisfied that his brother made
no such statement even II his own at
torney. w. a. Clarke. MIR Parker and
others did swear TO II. Re said that
neither the name OF Blease nor Boy
kin appeared on the books.
Mr.. Fielder tried 10 show that in
ferior liquor was shipped here to
make up for the rebates. but Mr..
Lanahan insisted the best came here.
This afternoons session ends the
Investigation until June s, when Mr..
Parker will be called 20 the stand
also Lanahan's supervising bother.
Lanahan promises TO produce any let
ters he has to Eloilse, noykin or 9th
ers.
Mr.. Brlce, OF .he committee, asked
Mr.. Ianahan to tell what methods his
company employed to get back into
business with the state dispensery af-
ter the firm had been blacklisted tor
sending a lot OF liquor into Charles
ton. Mr. Lanahan remembered being
olncklisted, but could not tell how the
flrm got back TO doing business.

the extent that he recalled having
heard OF Goodman In fact. he had
heard OF a spat between Goodman
ana Nelson. He was apparently very
much vexed that an employe OF his
house should do such thing q Mel
son had. and M wired that person to
come to Columbia at once.
Nelson appeared yesterday. And
the record shows that he had four
times sworn before Commissioner Az
cry Patton on a former occasion that
he had never offered any rebates or
commissions to anybody. To this his
own letter gave contradiction. Ne,son
Yesterday attempted 10 qualify by
saying that he understood Mr.. Patton
~ inquire about commissions TO State
officers. The stenographlc record,
however shows that Mr. Patton did
not so restrict his questions.
Nelson yesterday admitted that he
had heard that it was impossible to
set business in South Carolina with
out paying rebates or commissions,
and he had paid Goodman $500 and
Lse Solomans s40O. He had paid
nothing. however. to any State oin-
clal and denied knowing what Good
man did with the money. In order
to get back his money on such heavy
commissions he had been forced to
sell the State en- inferior brand Of
whiskey. brand not unmixed witt,
turpentine spirits. etc. This is where
the state was defraud same
old system proved by the legislative
investigating committee four years
ago.
Nelson's testimony was taken II,
executive session, but the commits
sioners say that he did not act with
entire frankness and they have evil
dence to prove that Nelson knows
even more than he told.
At the conclusion of this matter Mr.,
lyon called attention 70 the fact that
the Carolina Glass Company had a
claim OF $4,000 on which $1,000 was
to be deducted as overcharges on the
unfinished Flaccus contract. He de.
clared that II the commission should
inquire little more deeply it nigh,
be found that there were other over
charges which might Offset the whole
claim. on motion of Mr.. Brice 1t was
decided to reopen this caes entirely
az the June meeting.
The Saunders case will not oe de-
cided until then.
