tempt was made previous to the
election of VIM. Lorimer as United

secure the reelection of Senator AL
oert j. Hopkins.
The story comes on top of the re-
cent luncheon where Roger Sullivan.
the democratic national committeeman
for Illinois and representatives of the
ex-governor, fired pointed remarks at
rach other.
on this OCCASION, Sullivan is quoted
as saying:
Why don't you fellows look into
what Albert j. Hopkins was trying
to do at Springfield for four months""
The Tribune declares that $3o, G00,
was collected to secure the needed
votes. 1t was placed in the hands of
two little known eX-governors and a
block of votes selected and made ready
for delivery.
1t Is alleged that Mr.. Sullivan and
Speaker Shurtlcff foilcd the plan. Tie
speaker is said to have told the culpri.s
that he would p the plot from
the chair the a democratic
ballot was cast for Hopkins.
Then Sullivan entered the arena. He

ocratic leaders through the bablinSs
of one of the seventeen, who was re-
