GORE CREATES SENSATION.
Senator Alleges Attempt to Buy His
Influence in Land Case.

Sen ator Alleges Attempt 70 BUY his
Influence in Land Case.
Washington, June Ex-senator Gore
startled the senate by announcing he
had in effect been offered bribe Of
$4,000 to withdraw his opposition to
recognition Of the so-called 'McMurry
contracts for the sale of Indian lands in
Oklahoma.
The senate went further and added
to this declaration the statement that
member Of the house likewise had
been approached. This happened on
May 6 last. two days after he had in
troduced a resolution prohibiting the
approval Of the contracts.
ION May e. he said, "a representative
Of iMcMurry came to see me- He was
a man who resides in my home town, a
man who had been friend In time Of
need. He came to my office and as
sured me that 1t would be to my inter-
est If would call on the senator from
Colorado and advise him not to report
the resolution. There was a suggestion
that Ss5 900 or $4,000 would be avail
able II the contracts were not prohibit
ed. And I am informed that a similar
proposition was made yesterday to a
member Of the house Of representa-
tives"
MIR. Gore did not mention the name
either Of the agent who approached
him or that Of the member Of the house
He also declared IAN ex-senator from
Nebraska and an ex-senator from Kan
sas are interested in these contracts"
but in this instance also, he likewise
failed to name the men. Without In
dfeating other personalities, he added
that there was q large lobby here push
ing the McMurry interests.
Mr.. Gore announced that II the re-
cessions Of the senate from the amend
mont to the general deficiency bill was
sustained. Mr.. McMurry would get
$4,000, 600 as his fee for the sale Of the
Choctaw and Chickasaw indian lands
The amendment in question required
proper approval Of the contracts.
The declaration OF Senator Gore was
precipitated by the chairs declaring out
Of order his motion to reconsider the
vote by which the bill was passed.
Senator Gallinger met this motion with
one to lay the bill on the table which
eventually prevailed without roll
call.
On plea Of personal privilege Mr..
Gore then took the floor and unfolded
his tale of attempted bribery. The
Oklahoma senator's announcement was
the subject Of decided comment in the
corridors of the capitol tonight and an
investigation may follow. Mr. Gore re-
fused to give the name Of the man who
approached him or to make any further
statement regarding the transactions.
other than to say that the one who
made the offer to him was a lawyer.
