His Campaign Expenses.

WASHINGTON. June 20.-Little but
hearsay evidence Nas brought out to-
day when the Senate Lorimer investi-
eating committee held its initial hear
ing in the inquiry that is to go deer
into the charges Of corruption IN The
election af the 3unior senator from
Illinois.
Cyrus II. Mccormick. president OF
the International Harvester Company,
was before the committee to tell what
he knew Of the collection Of Il S100, 00O
fund, alleged to have been used in
Lorimer's behalf. lie testified that
Clarence s.. Funk. general manage il
the company. had told him of activity
in behalf of Lorimer. n that their
corporation had beeen invited by Ed
ward Hines, of the Hines Lumber Com
panY, to contribute To the election fund.
William j. Hines, who requested per-
mission to appear as personal counsel
for Edward Hines, objected to the line
of Questioning. He was o~verruled.

asked John II. Marble, one Of counsel
OF the committee.
Mr.. Funk came to Inc in my Office
said Mr.. Mccormick, "and said that
Mr.. Hines, at the Union League Club
in Chicago, had approached him on
the subject of u company making a
contribution. The object was to obtain
a contribution 10 d fund which he UNI
derstood was to be made to recoup
expenditures in connection with the
election of Senator Lorimer. Mr.. Funk
told him that his suggestion could not
be considered. l told him | was glad
that he had declined and that prac-
tically ended the incident
The witness said he had never met
Senator Lorimer, and when questioned
as to difficulties about taxes. admitted
that he had had some, but had not
connected Lorimer with them.
Pressed for his reasons for not mak>
ing public his information during the
previous hearng, Mr.. Mccormick said
he had been absorbed by his business
and by the time he had "~analyzed the
situation the committee had ceased its
work.
Recalling the testimony of Mr.. Funk
before the Illinois Senate, Mr.. Nc
Cormick said he had understood that
Hines had old Funk that 1t was inn
portant that the men in the 100000
pool should have a man at Washing
ton who would properly represent
them.
While denying hat the International
Harvester Company had a legislative
agent, MI. Mccormick admitted that he
and Mr.. Funk both gave attention to
Legislative matters when necessary. He
said the company had had no repre-
s~entatives at Springfield in 1909. and
had taken no part in the lumber fight
in connection with the Payne Aldrlch
tariff bill.
Under cross-examination by Judge
Hynes concerning his understanding OF
the conversation between Mr.. Funk and
Edward Hines. the witness declared
Hines had said that it was important
that I'VE should put Lorimer over, and
that a fund of $100, 900 was necessary to
accomplish that purpose.
