the law and politics and only gave up
the stage because he was advised that
his stature Wis nor great enough for

dence on the election Of Senator Lor-
inner reconvened this morning after
having enjoyed a recess of all but
three hours of the last three days. The
first scheduled witness was Congress-
man Ira G. Copley, Of Aurora, the mil
lionaire aide Of Governor Deneen. who
was desired to explain his inveterate
opposition to Albert J. Hopkins in 1909.
e. D. shurtlen and Lee O'Neil Browne
were within cali OF the committee =cx
pecting to be called after Mr. Copley.
Mr.. Copley took the witness stand
and testified that he talked with Lor-
inner regarding the senatorship in De-
cember. 1908.
II met Mr.. Lorimer in Chicago and
be told me he was dissatisfied with the
attitude Of Senator Hopkins. told
him believed the next senator would
be elected in pon-partisan vote"
REGARDING the primary law Copley
said the people wanted it but the poll
ticians did not Copley said that after
Senator Hopkins majority had been
broken Copley was for Governor De-
neen until he finally refused to be a
candidate.
Speaker ShurtlefY was willing to
take the senatorship. he said, but he
suggested Mr.. Lorimer could get more
votes and was more logical candi-
date"
This was three or four weeks before
the election Of Mr.. L,rin,er, 10, He said
he did not take part in the conference
which determined thes issF on which
Mr.. Lorimer's name Was7 to be pre-
sented and that he did not learn of
the matter more than fifteen minutes
before the legislature convened that
day.
The witness said he talked from
Springfield with Roger Sullivan in
Chicago when it was reported that
Senator Hopkins had pledges from a
number Of democratic members.
Sullivan came to Springfield and
told his democratic followers they
must vote for Hopkins" he said.
Copley asked to correct a statement
by James Kelley of the Chicago Tri-
bune on the stand in Washington last
summer.
"Mr. Keeley told as a fact that I
said Fred Blount was in Springfield
with bag Of money" he said. Now.
I heard that story simply as a rumor
and so told Mr. Keeley, I did not see
Mr.. Blount any time last session
Did you believe there was money
used in that session in Jackpot or
o%s ~
II wouldn't like to answer that ques-
ton. have no knowledge personally
to back up such an assertion. When
Lee O'Neil Browne told me that the
deadlock would be broken; in his opin-
ion, by the election Of Hopkins" said
Copley, II got very busy with Speaker
shu-t!eH and Mr.. Lorimer. 1 told
Shurtleff that we must settle upon
candidate to defeat Hopkins, and we
decided upon Mr.. Lorimer.'

New York, Oct. 3O.-The answer OF
Attorney General wickersham to the
plan Of the dissolution and reorgani-
zationl Of the American Tobacco Com
pany, co-defendant to the govern
ment's antitrust suit. was filed here
today in the circuit court Of the
United States for the southern district
Of New York.
The attorney general, after referring
to the direction Of the supreme court
TO restore competitive conditions,
says:
obviously the effect of any plan OF
disintegration submitted to the con-
sideration Of the court must be more
or less a matter Of conjecture and 1t
is impossible for the court to deter
mine In advance whether or not plan
which proposes to restore competitive
conditions will actually accomplish the
purpose intended. Any decree ascer-
taiEing and determining upon plan
should therefore reserve to the gov
ernment the right at any time within
five years from date of entry to apply
20 the court for other or further re-
lief upon q showing that as matter
az fact; such plan has not resulted
ii creating net condition which
shall. be honestly In harmony with and
not repugnant to the law. To that end
az well as for other purposes herein
after expected, each and every one OF
the new corporations proposed to be
organized for the purpose Of carrying
out the plan should be brought III as
a party to the suit in order to be sub
iected to the, Jurisdiction Of the court
n ,,d hound Inv ta decree"
The attorney general asks that
whatever plan be adopted it be sub
siect to, the following conditions, brief
" stated:
"The corporations among which ne
nroperty and businesses in the COM
tbinatfon are to be distributed for
period Of five years shall not have any
officers or directors in common.
.These companies shall not have
any stock interest in each other.
"They shall not employ the same
aeencfes for the purchase Of leaf to-
hacco or other raw material or for the
sale Of tobacco or of other products.
.They shall not retain nor employ
the same clerical or other organiza-
tions. or occupy the same Offices or Of
ficers.
mo one OF them shall hold capital
stock in any other corporation. any
part Of whose stock is also held ny any
ether of the. corporations among the
properties among which the proper
ties are distributed"

Hankow, via wy-Hu. China, Oct. 30.
The imperial forces are preparing tc
follow up their victory over the rebels
last week by an attack on Wu-C Chang
which the revolutionists have protecte
by elaborate emergency fortincations
and Han-Yans, which is regarded as OF
the utmost Importance on account oi
the arsenal there. Admiral Sab Chen
Ping yesterday notified the foreign
consuls that he was about to begin Z
bombardment OF Chang, and asked
that all foreigners be ordered to leave
at once
The loyalists are now in undisputed
possession Of the entire city of Han
kow, including the powder factory
They also control the railway. Their
position here is advantageous for a
sudden attack against the arsenal at
Han-Yang.
American Missionary Wounded.
A. H. Kepler. the American nlission-
ary, who was wounded Friday, is in .
serious condition.
Fridays battle at Kilometer-Ten was
a splendid exhibition Of gameness and
pluck on the part Of the rebel forces.
Altho they were outnumbe1ed by the
trained force Of imperiaiists In front Of
them and were subjected from the
flank to \ raldns cross fire from Ad-
miral Sah's warships, they held their
ground until nearly 500 had been killed
and 1900 wounded At last they were
compelled to retire. Their ranks were
broken but there was no panic.
Troops Prstit By European Training.
The advance Of the leyalists was q
splendid justification of the training
which the northern troops have re-
ceived recently under European in-
structors. Ten thousand strong they
crossed into the rebel territory during
the night and attacked the entrenched
revolutionary forces 1T daybreak Fri
day. There were about 5000 OF the
rebel troops. These were behind well
planned fortificatoins and had little to
fear from the attack Of the troops. 1t
was the guns of Admiral Sah's feet
which finally decided the day against
them. Admiral Sah's eight vessels ap-
preached the rebel position soon after
the advance of the imperial troops be.
gan but did not fire any shots. After
little while the eight ships silently
retired as II they had decided not to
participate in the engagement. Later
they returned this time ready for busi-
ness. y
ShsIlsd From Rear.
The range was short and the >gunners
mercilously poured In their shells upon
the rear of the rebel position. The
slaughter was appalling. The rebel bat
ter!es replied Intellectually ana We're n
nally silenced. The gunboats drew still
nearer and the revolutionists were
compelled to retire. The loyalists,
whose losses had been slight, advanced
to the abandoned trenches in splendid
order under cover OF the batteries. cap
turing fifteen guns and taking hfty
rebel prisons.
Rspuissd Second Time.
The rebels returned to the fray in
the afternoon bringing reinforcements
and fresh field guns. They advanced 1t
double quick and cheering. They at
tackled the loyalists vigorously, but the
fight was one-sided. The trained i'm
perial soldiers raked the rebels with
rapid hre guns and modern rifles The
rebels held their sround samsly but
were ultimately compelled to with
draw.
