WHITE IS GRILLED
IN LORIMER CASE
Tells in CrOss-eXamination
of Taking Brides.

The cross-examinatton Of Represent
attve Charles A. White, a Democratic
member Of the Illinois legislature Of 1909
was begun yesterday by Judge E. G.
Hanecy, counsel for Senator Lorimer
before the Senate committee which is
investigating Mr.. Lorimer's election. In
reply to questions by Judge Hanecy
white retold parts OF his testimony
about being paid a bribe Of $1,000 by
Representative Lee O'Neill Browne,
minority leader in the Illinois assembly,
to vote for Lorimer, and of receiving
the sum Of $500 as his share In the
jackpot.
The members of the committee seemed
interested in Whites testimony that he
was in the custody of an officer of Cook
County from April until December, 1909.
He said that the officers took him wher-
ever they wished, and that States Attor-
ney Wayman, Of Cook County, would not
allow him the advice of counsel. He said
that the officers told him they had legal
papers for keeping him in custody, but
did not show them to him.
White said that he intends to publish
in book form his original manuscript
giving his experiences at Springfield and
the details of the purchase of his vote
for Lorimer, part of which was first
printed in the Chicago Tribune of April
~. 1910. White admitted that many
statements contained in letters he wrote
to Representative Browne and Senator
Lorimer were untrue. He said that he
did this in order to obtain from them
some written reference to the bribery
transactions or the jackpot fund which
he might use in his exposure Of corrup-
ton at Springfield.

the situation. Mr.. Clark's district by the
way, is one of the gerrymandered districts
and would undoubtedly be rearranged oy
the Republican governor. The delegation,
however does not believe that the otficlaI
can find excuse for action.
LAS the thing now stands" said Mr.
Clark last night, "Hadley hasn't a
shadow Of authority under his own the
ory. These old State statutes he raked
up, granting the governor authority to
rearrange electoral districts, and which
he claims extends to Congressional dis
tricts, won't apply this time, because the
States representation in Congress Is not
to be changed"
Will Contest Authority.
AS the Supreme Court OF Missouri IS
Republican, the Democrats do not want
the question to come before that tri-
bunal If however, the governor should
attempt to redistrict the State and be up
held by the court, and if the electoral
vote of Missouri in the next Presidential
contest should thereby be given to the
Republican candidate for President, the
Democrats insist that either the vote of
the State will be thrown out or that an
other electoral commission will be held.
Primary Nominations.
A new section was adopted on motion
Of Mr.. Burton, TO be known as section s.
1t follows:
THAT candidates for Representative CT
Representatives to be elected at large in
any State shall be nominated In the same
manner as candidates for governor, un-
less otherwise provided by the laws Of
such State"
This will permit primary nominations or
the convention system, where that Gus
tom is followed.

At the next Congressional cleo
ton 433 members of the House will
be chosen instead of 391, the pres
ent number. The Senate yesterdcy
agreed to the House reapportion-
ment bill, which provides for the
increase. An amendment added by
the Senate providing that reappor-
tionment shall be made in each
State according to the laws there
Of has created considerable talk,
inasmuch as it was evidently in
tended to give Gov. Hadley, a Re-
publican, the authority to redistrict
Missouri. The Democratic repre-
sentativeS of that State, in confer
ence yesterday, declared that as the
number of representatives from
Missouri is not changed by the new
law, Gov. Hadley will have no oc-
casion to attempt redistricting.
SENATE AGREES TO INCREASE.
When the bill came up before the Sem
ate yesterday, Senator Roots PROPOSE
ton to keep the membership of the
House at its present figure commanded
only twenty-three votes, all Republicans
except Senator Clarke, of Arkansas
Senator McCumbers scheme to fix the
membership at 405 was also overwhelm-
ingly defeated. The number fixed in the
House bill was then adopted.
The main point of interest in the pas
sage of the bill, however was the adop-
ton of an amendment offered by Sena-
tor Burton. of Ohio, that redistricting
should be done in each State in the
manner provided by the laws thereof"
Mr.. Burton explained that he wished to
permit those States which have the in
itiative and referendum to refer a re-
districting proposal 10 the voters if they
so desired. Senator Reed, OF Missouri,
evidently did not credit this explanation,
for he proposed that the language should
be by the legislatures thereof or by
the people thereof The Burton amend
ment was adopted after Mr.. Reeds
amendment had been defeated.
What the Amendment Means.
The significance of the contest be-
tween Mr.. Burton and Mr.. Reed was
made known by an examination of the
Missouri statutes, one of which reads
as follows:
Section 66E. New apPortionment-Duty Of gov
ernor: When any new apportiOnment shall be made
Of the members to be elected to the House Of Rep
resentatves Of the United States whereby the num-
ber Of electors to which the State may be entitled
shall be increased diminished, it shall be the
duty Of the governor to lay off the State into as
many districts shall be equal to the number Of
electors TO which this State shall then be entitled
that the said districts contain may be
equal number Of inhabitants

CAPT. BECK WINS
PILOTS LICENSE
Army Flyer Risks Life for
Coveted Prize.

After having met with repulse day
| after day, for more than a week, Capt.
Paul W. Beck. one of the corps OF
army av1ators at College Park. pointed
the saucy beak of a sick aeroplane up
yesterday afternoon and successfully
qualified for a pilots license.
Every time, until yesterday. that Capt.
Beck has tried to make his trial flights
the weather has been inauspicious. his
engine out of order. or something else
wrong. Yesterday. in spite of a London
drizzle and an engine which behaved in
a childishly willful manner, he took his
lie in his hands and won out. The
other officers at the field said that they
would not under any circumstances risk
death in the machine which Capt Beck
used. Something was wrong with one
of its cylinders.
Capt. Beck went up for trial flight
first, and his chances for winning the
license looked bad. After circling the
field he came down, and, striking the
ground, bounded along nearly the entire
length of the field. The second trial
flight was no better, and then 1t began
to rain. When the clouds lifted a little
and the rain toned down to thin driz-
zle, the flyer was rolled out again and
Capt Beck mounted to the seat. Capt
Chandler and Lieut.. Arnold went out to
act as official observers, but they really
thought they might better be in their
tents playing checkers, the machine
was acting so badly.
Then Capt Beck rose from the earth
and flew in great figure eights five times
around the field. Then he came down
with a swoop and stopped near enough
the point prescribed to have made good
on the first lap.
To qualify for a pilots license the
aviator must attain a height of fifty
meters and land within $50 feet Of the
starting point after executing five fig
ure eights in flight.

TO SECURE REVENUE
FROM PUBLIC PROPERTY

A bin to charge property holders an
annual rental for vaults that project
under the sidewalks or streets was in
troduced yesterday in the Senate by
Senator Curtis and in the House by Rep
resentative Johnson. The measure is
recommended by the Commissioners of
the District, and in response to their
suggestion a strong effort will be made
to enact it into law.
In a letter sent to the two District
committees, the Commissioners point out
that the projections for vaults involve
an occupation of space underground ad-
joining business property for the sole
use and benefit of that property, and
that no public service is served thereby.
1t is proposed that the annual rental
shall be payable on November l Of each
year and computed by formula where
by the number of square feet in area
of vault, including the horizontal area
of the entrance thereto, and of the walls
thereof upon public space. shall be null
tiplied by the assessed value per square
foot Of the adjoining land multiplied
The Washington herald., 1911-08-04

by one-half Of per cent. The minimum
rental is to be s..
The openings from these vaults into
the adjoining public space very often
prove source of danger to the pub
lic," the Commissioners state in their
letter, "and the District of Columbia
has been sued for accidents caused by
these projections In such cases it has
remedy against the permitee, but a
practical difficulty often arises as to
the responsibility as between the land
lord and the tenant, making this re-
covery ever of doubtful value.
No compensation is paid to the
United States or to the District of
Columbia for this use and occupation of
public space, and in the case of pro-
jections other than vaults the Commits
sioners are not prepared at this time to
recommend that compensation be
charged. In the case of vaults, however
they do believe that this valuable occu-
patton of public space should be paid for
by those to whom permits are granted.
and 1t is with this object in view that
the Commissioners have drafted this
bill" -

RUSSIAN REFUGEE GETS STAY
Deportation Order Against PoIiti.
cal PriSoner Is Withheld.

Deportation Order Against PoIiti.
cal Prisoner Is Withheld.
At the urgent request of Representa-.
tive Victor Berger. of Wisconsin, Secre-
tary Nagel, of the Department Of Com
merce and Labor. yesterday granted a
stay in the deportation order against
Theodore Malkoff, the Russian political
refugee, held at Ellis Island.
Malkoff was one of the group in the
Russian revolution of 1905 who captured
and for a time held the war ship Po-
temkin. He arrived in the port of New
York as a stowaway on the steamer
Bierma last Monday. In an effort to
elude capture he jumped into the water
and swan to the shore. He was picked
up, however, confineu at Ellis Island,
and ordered deported.
His case was taken up by the Political
Refugee League, and by the Call and
Jewish Forwards, two New York Social
list newspapers, the Forwards paying the
steamship company the price of his pass
age. The stay granted by Secretary Ma
gel will enable the friends of Malkofr to
contest his deportation and to secure his
right to land.
