TWO C~ORROBORATE
STORY Of BRIBERY
COURT ADaiITEs TESTIMONY OF
OTHER WITNESSES IN THE
LORIMER BRIBERY CASE
AT CHICAGO.

Chicago, Ml.-Representatiye
Beckemeyer on the witness stand to-
day in the Brown trial, said that he
was willing to vote for any one in
order to defeat Hopkins for the Unit
ed States Senate ana that he did not
consider the thousand dollars paid
him as bribery.
Chicago.-The fourteen objections
by the defense against admission of
testimony by Representative Myers,
Link int Beckmeyer. in the Lee
O'Neil Browne senatorial bribery
trial, were overruled by Judge Nc
Surley after five hours Of argument.
This is regarded az a victory for the
prosecution, as it permits the first
corroborative evidence in support of
the confession" Of Representative
White, that he had been paid $1,000
for voting for Senator Lorimer.
Myers was the first witness for the
state. His testimony in effect was
that Browne called him to him on
the day Of election Of Lorimer and
asked for his vote. saying there are
lots Of Jobs and plenty Of "the ready"
for those who voted for Lorimer.
H. J. G. Beckemeyer Of Carlisle,
Ill, then corroborated White In every
material point. He said he had been
called to st. Louis q White had been
and there was handed . "packagos
BY Browne. who remarked "There T.

opened the package" and found 81

that permitting railroads to make
pooling agreements and that author
izing a railroad to purchase the re-
mainder of another lines stock when
it already owns so per cent of it. The
House passed a clause authorizing
the interstate commerce commission
to supervise railroad securities, but
the Senate refused to accept it. 1t
was ~championed by the progress
s1ves" of both branches. The other
two provisions that were cut out
were opposed by the ''progressives,"
so both factions had their consolation.
The most. important features OF
the bill as reported from conference
and as it will undoubtedly be passed,
are as follows:
The creation Of a commerce court
to hear appeals from the commerce
commission.
The commission may begin inves-
LEGATIONS on its " motion, instead
of waiting for complaints, as hereto
fore.
Shippers may select the route
their shipments shall take.
The commission may suspend in
creases in rates for ten months pend
ing In Investigation of the need Of
them, and the burden Of proving their
need rests upon the railroad compan-
les.
The commission may regulate clas-
.sification OF rates to prevent discrimi-
nation.
The making Of a lower rate for a
long haul than a short haul is pro-
hibited, unless approved by the COM
mission. /
II railroad companies lower their
rates because Of competition of wa
ter routes. they may not afterward
increase them unless they car show
some reason for it other than the
abandonment OF water competitions;
a provision intended to prevent rall-
road companies from running water
traffic by cutting rates and then rails
ing them again.
The commission is given supervis-
ion over the telegraph and telephone
companies engaged in interstate bust
and power to regulate their
rates; and telephone and telegraph
are prohibited, except to Off
GERS, agents and employees of these
corporations and their families.
What many considered the most
feature of the bill, that au-
thorizing the interstate commerce
to make a physical val
uation of the railroad property, which
was passed by the house, was strick-
en- in conference. me Senate four
times refused to approve this clause
and 1t was argued that it would be
useless to attempt to retain it. Pres
ident Tafe did not suggest this as
part Of the bill, but 1t has been ar
gued in congress with a great deal of
force that 1t will never be possible to
regulate rates intelligently unless it
is known what valuation the rail-
roads are entitled to a return upon.
However. the bill as a whole makes
material improvement in the Roose-
welt rate law Of 1905. Its adoption,
under the leadership of the president,
must be accepted as one piece of Il
dence that Taft sincerely desires to
carry ahead the work Of Roosevelt.

ceeds to show that 1t has been stated
that Norfolk is the best town in the
league, which, of course, means the
best in the world. How are you going
to prove 1t? You don't have to, Nor
folk confesses it, and SO does Win.
Therefore Win is going to raise
merry Cain and turn the scheme OF
existing things upside down and in
side out. He Is going to fire Roanoke
and Danville, and take on Petersburg
and Newport News. WIN wants
scrap. and II he can't get one in the

Does anybody eXtant remember the
fights between Petersburg and NOR
folk rooters in the days when Peters
burg was cotton market and every
body drank flicker? Well they were
some scraps, and the old inhabitants
still remember them.
Win longs for the good old days,
and looking with eyes that scorch al

there are no finer he wants TO get
things arranged better
So far as Petersburg is concerned
there is no kick That is one town

the Richmond and Norfolk rooters
they behave SO handsomely after
wards that no hard feeling can last
