Link is alleged TO have sworn he was
not in st. Louis July 10, 1909, and did
not meet Representative Robert h.
Wilson of Chicag 20 there The grand
Jury declares it finds upon inVeStiSa-
ton that Link was in st. Louis on that
date and did meet Wilson The jury
declares Link wilfully procured himself
after full realization OF the value OF
his statements in the Investigations.
The perjury charge against W lISOn
is based on his testimony before the
grand jury on May D. The indictment
alleges Wilson testified he did, not
land sums of, money to Representative
White and Representative Buckemeyer
in the Southern hotel at St. Louis July
5. 1899. The grand jury states in its
bill against Wilson that it finds VIII
son did hand money to both White and
Buckemeyer at st. Louis on the date
specified.
Immediately on return OF the indict-
ments Judge Kersten fixed Brown :
bail at $4,000, wilson's at $4,000 and
Linkes at $1,000.
Another indictment not bearing upon
the Lorimer legislative bribery was re
turned by the jury against William G.
Henley, former president of the Chi
cago & Western Indiana railway. This
Indictment charges Henley with en-
bezzlement of the railroads funds
1t is a direct outcome of charges
made by John G. Felzer, who declared
a 'ssIush fund had been used in the
legislature to secure the passage OF
railroad legislation The specific bill
was house bill III" validating $780,

The session of the legislature that
elected Lorimer to the senate was one
of the most sensational in the history
of the state
Senator Hopkins, the then incum bent.
had received a plurality at the Repub-
lican primaries over former Governor
Richard Yates. Congressman Edmund
Foss and others. Many members of the
legislature, however, who had been in
structed to vote for Hopkins refused
to do so, and a deadlock lasting many
weeks followed.
Congressman Lorimer had not been
a candidate, but came forward when
il became plain that no other choice
could be made. With the assistance
of Democratic votes he was elected.
Shortly after this there were vague
rumors of bribery, but these rumors
had long ceased to attract attention,
when Representative Whites confess
sion- printed in the Chicago Tribune,
revived them.
White stated in substance that
Browne approached him at Springfield
and offered him $1,000 to cast his vote
for Lorimer. White, in his confession,
declares he accepted the money to show
up corruption in the legislature.

roof, which is entirely hidden behind the
drill shed walls, is carried directly by
terra Gotta vaults, spring1ng from the
bottom chords of coupled steel trusses
which start from the second story.
Question of Material.
I'VE have considered carefully the
choice of material for the construction of
the building, and submit herewith esti-
mates based on the use of several diff
ferent materials. A light-colored granite
would seem to be ideal material for it's
construction, although a white or light
gray marble would not be inappropriate.
The size and number Of the columns
would preclude the use of mOnoliths for
the colonnade. and they would preferably
be built UP in small sections, somewhat
as were the Greek Doric columns at Pees-
tun. The vast size and the simplicity OF
the architecture of the building would
lend themselves we'll to construction en-
estimate based the use of a granite
composite for the columns and the eX-
terror of the building. This material is
very similar to a light granite in effect.
1t would be finished by toOling as is done
with stone. With the use of this ma
terial, the columns, which would be con-
structed in place, would be monoliths.
The bulk of the face work would be cast
at a temporary factory built within the
lines of the building. and afterward set
in place upon the walls. The fiat and
unornamented surfaces Of the wall behind
the colonnade would be cast in place, us
ing selected aggregates and washing out
the superfiuous mortar upon the surface
Immediately after the setting, tooling be-
ing omitted
