today. However, if a man makes his
escape We are going to try to cap

on the stand today before the commit
tee investigating the election of Sem
ator Lorimer and the alleged 100000
election to which the International is
claimed to have been asked to con-
tribute $4,000.
Funk testified that as general man.

however, that never to his knowledge
had the company used money to get
votes in the legislatures or Congress.
He said as far as he could he had al
ways avoided discussing Lorimer per-
sonally.
Have you regarded Lorimer as
factor opposed to ole International

NO, sir"
Just how he was introduced to Lor-

LABORS leaders
MUST SHOW CAUSE
(8y Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, June 26.-Justice
Daniel T. Wright of the district su.
preme court today issued ruling
against Samuel Gompers, Frank Nor.
rison and John Mitchell, labor lead.
ers, requiring them to show cause on
July II, why they should not be
judged guilty of contempt of court.
This action followed the filing OF
the report of the special committee
of attorneys appointed by Justice
Wright to inquire into the matter of
contempt proceedings in the Buck s
stove and range boycott case.
Contempt proceedings against the
labor leaders recently were passed
upon by the United States supreme
court, which set aside the Jail SEN
fences heretofore imposed by Justice
Wright.
The supreme court held that con-
tempt on which Wright formerly pun
ished was of a civil nature and against
the Bucks Stove and Range company.
In Diminishing the former proceedings,
however. the supreme court gave to
the district court the right to reopen
the case in the event that any con-
tempt of court itself should be found.
