WASHINGTON, D. c., December 21.
Senator Burrows, chairman of the
committee on privileges and elections,
today presented to the Senate the re-
port of the investigation of charges of
bribery made in connection with the
election of William Lorimer as a SEN
ator from Illinois. The conclusion
reached by the committee was as fol-
lows:
"That in their opinion the title of
Mr.. Lorimer to a seat in the Senate
has not been shown to be invalid by
the use or employment of corrupt me-
thods or practices"
Charges that four members of the Il
linois legislature were bribed and that
three other members paid brides are
not ignored by the committee. The
report declares that those who con-
fessed to receiving brides should not
be believed, and that the votes of
those who were charged with paying
brides should be counted.
In relation to the charges that there
was a corruption fund used in the ILL
nois legislature and that it was dis
bursed by one Robert e. Wilson, the
report says that there is no evidence
that it was used for the benefit of Mr.
Lorimer. The committee suggests
that any investigation of the use of
such a fund should be made by au-
thorities of the state of Illinois.
The report as presented was not
signed by members of the committee
although it did not appear that there
was any minority. On the floor of the
Senate, however, Mr.. Beverage made
the statement that he had not been
able to concur with or dissent from
the findings because of the volumin-
Gus character of the testimony.
He said that he would digest the
proceedings of the investigation COM
mittee during the holidays. He ask
ed that a specific time be named for
acting upon the report, but objection
was made by Senator Gallinger on the
ground that the matter was privileged
and could be called from the table at
any time by any senator.
The report recites that the memorial
fled June 7, 1910, by Clifford w. Bar
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-01-07

therefore no part of the duty of the
subcommittee to inquire into either the
origin of the fund or the purpose for
which it was used. That matter was
and is one for the proper officials of
the state of Illinois to take cognizance
of, and one with which the Senate of
the United States mas 10 cognizance
and one of which the Senate of the
United States has no concern"
The report closes as follows:
"The committee submit to the Sc
nate the testimony taken in the inves-
tigation with their report that in their
opinion the title of Mr.. Lorimer to
a seat in the Senate has not been
shown to be invalid by the use or en-
ployment of corrupt methods or prac-
tises, and request that they be dis

LOR|MER REPORT IN SENATE
WHICH BEVER|DGE Of INDIANA WILL
OISAPPBOVE, REGARDING BRIBERY

mes, president of the Legislative Vot-
ers' League of Chicago, declares that
the election of William Lorimer, Sc
nator from the state of Illinois, was
secured by bribery"
Then follow the instructions of the
Senate given on June 20, directing the
committee on privileges and elections
to investigate che charges and the fact
that a subcommittee was appointed,
composed of Senators Burrows, Gam
BILE, Hepburn, Buckley, Frazier, Payn-
ter and Johnston.
The meeting in Chicago September
20 is described in detail, after which
the evidence is taken up and interpret
ed by the committee. In this regard
the committee sets forth as a state
ment of facts that Mr. Lorimer was
elected May 26, 1909, receiving 10S
votes out of 1922 cast on the joint bal
lot of the Illinois assembly. These
votes were set out as follows: Hop
kins 70, Lorimer 108 and Stringer "a.
The report is divided into chapters
each carrying a subhead. Under the
caption Votes Required to Elect" the
committee points out that the ques-
ton is rased by counsel whether the
language of the statute regulating the
election of United States senators re-
quires that in order to elect a senator
the person elected must receive a ma
jority of the votes of all the members
elected to each house of the legisla-
ture, or whether it is sufficient If one
person receives a majority of all the
votes cast in the joint assembly "a ma
jority of all the members elected to
both houses being present and voting"
The committee report says on this
subject:
This question seems to have been
decided by the Senate in the case of
Lapham against Miller (Senate cleo
ton cases, 1900. In that case it was
held that a majority of a quorum of
each house is sufficient to elect, and in
that decision the committee concur:
Under head of Bribery" the com.
mittee says:
I'm a number of cases that have
been before the Senate of the United
States it has been held that to in.

)ears to have conceived The plan of
claiming to have been bribed in con-
nection with the senatorial election"
as a basis for extorting money from
Senator Lorimer The report quotes
from the record of the investigation
the correspondence relied upon to sup
port this charge.
The conclusion of the committee in
regard to the testimony of White is as
follows:
1T may be said that after seeing,
observing and hearing this witness it
was the oTinion of majority of the
subcommittee that no credence ought
to be given to any part of his testi-
mony tending to establish the fact of
bribery And after carefully reading
the testimony given by White in the
investigation, a majority of the COM
mittee concur in the opinion of the
subcommittee in that regard"
The report says:
AFTER a careful examination and
consideration of all the evidence sub
mitted the committee are of the OPT
non that, even if it should be conceded
that the four members of the Illinois
general assembly before referred to
received money in consideration for
their votes for Mr.. Lorimer, there are
no facts or circumstances from which
it could be found or legally inferred
that any other member or members
of the said general assembly were
bribed to vote for Mr.. Lorimer.
"The majority for Senator Lorimer
in the joint assembly of the two
houses Of the general assembly of the
state of Illinois was fourteen. Unless
therefore,, a sufficient number of these
votes were obtained by corrupt means
to deprive him of this majority Mr.
LorimeT has a good title to the seat
he occupied in the Senate. If it were
admitted that four of the members of
the general assembly who voted for
Mr.. Lorimer were bribed to do so,
he still had a majority of the votes
cast in the general assembly and his
election was valid"
Much of the testimony, the report
says, related to alleged payment Of
money to members of the general as
sembly by Robert E. Wilson, and this
comment is made:
Whether the sums Of money claim
ed to have been paid were or were not
paid that fact had no relevancy to
the matter which the committee was
appointed to investigate, If any
money was disbursed by Wilson it is
evident that it was from a fund which
was neither raised nor expended to
promote the election of Mr.. Lorimer
as senator nor to reward those who
voted for him for that once. 1t was

validate the election of a senator on
account of bribery it must be made
to appear, either.
First. That the person elected par
ticipated in one or more acts of bri-
berry or attempted bribery, or sane
toned or encouraged the same, or
Second. That by bribery or corrupt
practices enough votes were obtained
for him to change the result of the
election"
Testimony is quoteu by the report
to show that at the outset of the in
vestigation counsel for the Chicago
Tribune (who conducted the inquiry
against Senator Lorimer) announced
that he did not expect to connect Sc
nator Lorimer with any acts of bri-
berry.
Attention is directed to the denial
made by Senator Lorimer in the open
Senate of any act of bribery on his
part in connection with his election.
and to his demand for an investiga-
ton. In that connection the report
quotes the resolution, after which the
following is set forth:
1T should further be stated that
there was no testimony offered during
che investigation which would tend in
the remotest degree to implicate Sc
nator Lorimer in any personal act of
bribery or attempted bribery or cor
rupt practices of any nature"
The report says chat the investiga-
ton was chiefly directed to the claim
that several members of the legisla-
ture were bribed to vote for Mr.. Lori
mer, and whether, if these charges
were established "a sufficient number
were brbed to vote for Senator Lori
mer to render his election to that office
invalid" The committee says that it
took into account the demeanor of wit
nesses while testifying, their apparent
candor or want of candor, and other
indicia of the truth or falsity of the
stories they were telling. The report
says:
-Four members of the general as
sembly which elected Mr.. Lorimer tes-
titled to receiving money as a consid-
Grafton for their votes. The members
who thus confessed their own infamy
where Charles A White, Michael Link,
II. j. c. Beckemeyer and Daniel w.
Holstelaw"
The reports goes on to name Charles
A. White, a member of the lower
house of the Illinois legislature, as
the chief of the self-accusers and
che one on whose testimony the whole
fabric of the accusation largely de-
pends," and accuses him directly Of
corruption throughout has legislative
career. 1t is stated that White zap.
