Washington, May 2S.-Demand-
ing an investigation of the bribery
charges in connection with his cleo
TIN to the United States senate,
William Lorimer appeared before
the senate today with an explanation
Of the case that blamed the Chicago
Tribune.
The resolution demanding an in
vestigatun was referred to the COM
mittee on privileges and elections.
In his Splanation Lorimer re-
viewed his 26 years warfare with the
Chicago Tribune and declared the
paper lied when it made the charges
that his election was the result Of
bribery. He denied that any mem
ber of the Illinois legislature ever
received a dollar from him. He al
legged that the attack by the news
paper was directed not only at him
self personally, but at a new bank
ing association which he and his
friends are organizing.
He declared that the charges ap-
pearing in the paper and purporting
to have been written by Charles \
White, a member of the legislature,

were plainly not the work OF a
newspaper man.
ut is plain every word was passed
upon by a lawyer" he said. before
It was signed by that poor, low crea-
ture, White who doesn't hesitate to
commit forgery for a few dollars,
and to whom perjury is no crime.
when the truth is known, every
body will understand that the publi-
cation of an article signed by White
was part of a political conspiracy to
drive me out of public life and ruin
me financially because l will not do
as other Illinois Republicans do
place myself under the absolute con-
troll and dictatorship of the Chicago
Tribune"
Lorimer not only denied that he
had offered any bribes to secure his
election but declared that no one
had offered any one any money to
vote for him. Lorimer told of his
fight for the senatorship. He said
that he had not wanted the office,
that he had suggested in turn Con-
gressmen Lowdena McKintry and
Rodenburg as candidates against ex-
Senator Hopkins and refused to
make the race.
He said Governor Dineen prom
ised to make the fight for the Office
but at the last moment changed his
mind and refused to become can
didate. He further said Dineen had
promised to support him when, feel
ing there was no other way, he had
decided to enter the race himself.
At the last moment Dineen withheld
his support, he said.
Thereafter, he said. Dineen and
the Chicago Tribune joined forces
and fought Inn.

entrance to the port. They are ready
to carry the battle into the city,
should it be ordered. General Ma
driz has made a second demand for
the surrender of the city, and if it is
not accepted soon it is believed a
general attack will follow. If Com
mander Gilmer, of the Paducah, con-
tinues his refusal to allow the bonn
bardment of the city, it is reported
the Madriz generals plan an advance
on the city, which will bring the fight
ing to the very doors of the homes in
Bluefields.
The fall of the custom house on
the bluffs was a severe blow to the
defense of the city. Reports today
say that the final assault occurred
late yesterday. The American gun
ners who had been defending the en-
trenchments about the custom house,
almost continually for 70 hours, were
exhausted. Their ammunition was
exhausted, and reserves brought up
from another division of the Madriz
army stormed the custom house, and
captured zoo revolutionists without
firing a single shot. The Americans,
who had borne the brunt of the fight
ing, so that they fell exhausted in
the trenches, were unable to offer re-
sistance to the fierce charge of the
Madriz troops.
Marines from the Paducah sur
round the consulate today. The
troops are ready to suppress any dis
order in the city, and should the SOL
diers storm the city clash between
the Madriz troops and the American
force is not unlikely.

This was the basis of his argument
today before the committee.
He bitterly arraigned that Pinch
ot-Garfeld-Glavis outfit" and de-
nounced as foolish and visionary the
men whose names he linked togeth-
er. He declared that Richard A,
Ballinger, secretary of the interior
department, was public servant
without a peer.
Vertrees, declared that never had
more valid claims been presented to
the land office than those of the Cum
ningham group which CLAWS protest
ed and caused the controversy which
ended in the congressional investiga-
tion.
He declared that IL the Cunning
ham afidavit had been drawn "un-
ethically" by the secretary of the in
terror, that was a matter beyond the
power of the committee to investi-
gate. On the other hand, he de-
clared, no evidence had been intro
duced which could justly be consid-
cred as giving evidence that there
had been any misconduct in Balling-
er's service to claimant.
He denounced Garfield as a tool
of Pinchot and declared that Gar
fields jealousy when he learned he
was not to be in the new cabinet.
caused him to seek revenge, which
the attorney intimated had ended in
the present investigation.
Vertrees declared that the testi-
mony of the clerks of the interior
department absolutely vindicated
Ballinger.
"Guggenheim," he said, Seems to
be the bogey of the West. pre-
sumo he has virtues and faults as
every human being has. I know
that he is building a railroad in
Alaska. / also know that he is not
trying to float a bond issue which
is certainly to his credit.
He paid high tribute to Edward

and to the other clerks of the de-
partment. Then, his body trembling
with emotion, he shouted a denun-
citation of Frederick M. Kerby, the
stenographer who first gave out the
story of the preparation of the Law
Ter memorandum.
He is a poor miserable weak
creature" shouted Vertrees, fiat
tered by the invitation to the Pin
chot mansion under the dark, soft
mantle of night to confer with such
men as this Garfield and this Bran
deis."
He declared that H. M. Hoyt
governor-general of Porto Rico and
who was called as a witness in the
case, was the kind of man "who saw

as an argument in favor OF
altering the scale Of weights govern
ing the various events. Battling Mel
son was the first American TO demand
that oppohents make 1873 pounds ring
side. thus barring many clever boys
from the lightweight class.
In England the National Sportins
club recently fixed the limit in the
lightweight class at l35 pounds six
hours before ring time. Joe Cans, in
his time, met all corners regardless
of the 133-pound limit. Nelson, as the
title holder, barred Packey McFar'
land from a match because Packey
wanted to fight at 1875.
It is not fair to put these l35-pound
boys in the welter class, where the
limit is 142 pounds. They would be
badly out-weighed by the title holder
Dixie Kid.
In the bantam class. Johnny Cou-
