ILLINOIS BRIBERY
SCANDAL GROWS

Chicago.-Discovery of several new
sources of information resulted in the
uncovering of more corruption and
bribery that attend the acquittal Of
Lee O'Neil Browne of the charge of
bribing legislators to vote for Will
liam Lorimer for United States Sen
ator.
1t was shown that a majority of IL
men who voted to discharge Browne
who was charged with handling the
purse strings in the campaign to buy
vote for Lorimer had been the guests
at a great jollification and banquet
that concluded with tour of various
places of amusement at late hour
of the night.
So secure did the participants in
this affair feel that they held the
wine dinner and rounding up" less
than a week after the verdict was
returned in court. In this function
Attorney Charles Erbstein, one of the
tria of lawyers who represented
Browne, and who now is charged witt
having fixed" at least one juror, /:
declared to have played an importan
| part.
But even in the face of this opel

RULES JURORS MAY READ

Washington-A mans constitution
al rights are not necessarily violated
because jurymen trying him on
charge of murder are allowed to
separate and to read newspapers dur
ing the trial, it was held here by
the Supreme Court of the United
States.
The court held similarity in regard
to the refusal of judge to send the
Jury out of the courtroom during ar
guments on the admission of evi-
dence.
These points were made in the de
eision of the court in refusing to in
terfere with the sentence of life i'm
prisonment imposed by the Federal
4 Court of Western Washington upon
James H. Holt on a charge of having
murdered Henry E. johnson in Fort
Worden Barracks, Wash.
