to statements made by members of

Of the Ruggles-Gale company, but now
located In Detroit, has been promised
an immunity bath If he will tell what
he knows of the methods employed by
state officials in purchasing supplies
for their departments
According to the story told by
Knoderer to Special Counsel Booth,
Mark Slater, former state printer,
failed to patent his system of padding
bills and purchasing at excessive
prices; or, if he did secure a patent.
at least three other state officials
were guilty of infringing on his
rights. They are the fire marshal and
railroad commission departments and
stationery bureau of the secretary of
states office. The probe into the lat.
ter indicates, the committee thinks,
that some padding of bills was done.
One of these from the Ruggles-Gale
company, Nov IS, 1905, for supplies
sold the stationery department of the
secretary of states Office during for

injury will have any bearing on

Donovan and some friends were au-
tomobiling. The machine lurched
and the pitcher was thrown against
a protruding brass screw. His left
arm received a deep cut, seven or
eight iiches long. 1t required nine
stitches after an anti-septic solu-

possible infection from the brass.
