DEEP RIVER MAN
OFFERED LAWLESS A PRESENT.
Desired Him to Change His Vote for
Goodwin Instead of Lake.

Following up his declaration that
he had placed before States Attorney
Alcorn of Hartford certain evidence of
corrupt practices at the republican
state convention in Hartford, George
l. Fox of New Haven has given out
the following statement:
New Haven. Conn. Oct. 81. 1910.
Mr. Alcorn in his defense of his ac-
ton with regard to my complaints
reported in the Hartford Times is not
Just and fair to me. I have never
asked him to prosecute on the evil
dence ] have submitted. l have Sim
ply asked him to investigate the state
ments OF alleged bribery and if the
facts warranted ii to arrest and prose-
cute the guilty parties to the full ex-
tent of the law. That is the way he
does in other cases, and it is the way
he should do now If other states at
torneys willingly comply with my re-
quests | see no reason why he should
not do so. In order that the pub
lie may see whether he has done his
first case which I brought before him
and asked him to investigate thor
oughly.
States Attorney Hull of New Lon
don county gave me these facts with
the understanding that I was to com
municate them to Mr.. Alcorn,
John J. LawIess said to Mr. Hull in
my presence over the telephone that
three times at Hartford a man named
Burroughs of Deep River, a, delegate
to the convention from Saybrook. said
to him. IF you will change your vote
from Lake to Goodwin there will be
a handsome present for you" These
facts We're communicated to Mr. AL
corn in letter written by me Sunday
night. October %. yet he has taken no
steps in the matter.
l have assured Mr. Alcorn that Mr..
Hull says that Mr.. Lawless. who is n
lawyer of the best standing in New
London, will testify in court to what
he has said to Mr. Hull. but that does
not seem to affect Mr.. Alcorn
If this is not evidence warranting
investigation, then I do not know
what is. ! have somply asked Mr.. AL
corn to investigate secretly in any
way that he pleases the alleged Of
fenses which I bring to him, but /
have never had a single line from him
in reply. In my first interview with
him l urged him to make use of the
method of Investigation provided in
chapter 1881 of the Revised Statutes,
but he would not do so.
