Hines, the Chicago umborman, may
have rendered In the election of Scna-
tor Lorimer, marked todays session
of the investigation committee, and
the most significant testimony was
In edlrect denial by, Shelly b. Hess. a
druggist In Marquette, Mich, that he
had never said that Mr. Hines had
remarked In his presence that he had
put Lorimer over as United states
Senator and that he had collected
100000 to do IT,"
In so testifying the witness was
contradlcted by n. c. Moshor, "A dep
uty United States marshall, and Frank
j. Russell editor of the Mining Jour
nal OF Marquette, and Chicago
newspaper reporter. The statements
of Hess also contradict the testimony
OF NJ Morris Coau, an investigator
for the committee. According to Mr.,
Coan's statements to the committee,
the conversation I'm which Hines fig
ured occurred In Marquette in 1901
or about two years before the sena-
torial election.
Coan said that Mr. Hines had re-
marked he was a friend of Lorimer
and wanted to see his election. 81

Since last January Tulsa County has
been graced with two Superior Courts.
b two judges and two clerks. When
the census showed Tulu Countys
population to be sufficient to allow 1t
the additional court, Governor
Charles n, Haskell appointed former
County Attorney Breeknridge as su-
perior Judge, and Mr.. Breckenridge
appointed Mr. Kline ~ his clerk.
About the same time the county
commissioners decided that it was
their place to appoint the superior
judge and they appointed John r..
League as such judge, and Jo-1n Wells
as his clerk.
This made two distinct courts. Both
sides claimed they were right in the
matter, and things have drifted along
in this manner ever since.
A mandamus action was begun' by
Mr.. Wells to compel Clerk Kline Of
the other court to turn over to him
certain papers. This case was taken
to the supreme Court for its decision,
and for weeks the opinion has been
expected to be handed down decid-
ing the muddle and who was who in
the Superior Court.
BY the decision rendered yesterday
the case Of Mr.. Wells was thrown
out of court Whether this will de-
finitely decide the matter remains to
be seen.
However, during the past six
months the superior Court muddle
has cost the county about $4OO per
month for which it has received very
little In return. owing to the doubt
as to which was the legal court, only
a very little work has been done by
either court, so It develops down to
this point, that the county will have
to pay out in salaries about $4OO per
month for the past six months for
which II has received very little benz
eft
Last night Judge Breckinridge
stated that he believed the case has
been definitely settled.
