MAN IS SNATCHED
FROM CERTAIN DEATH
Topples From Beam on Twentieth
Story, but John Murray Catches
Him 40 He Falls.

Chicago, June 2s-One Of the human
flies, whose agility and lack of nerves
make skyscrapers possible, lost his
balance and toppled from the twen-
tieth story of the new Heisen building.
Ordinarily the foregoing statement
would complete the story, but not so in
the case Of Patrick Eustice, for there
was a hero at hand In the person Of
John Murray, and Eustice probably
will be at work again In few days.
The latter toppled from beam just
as scores Of other structural iron
workers have done, and some of hts
did not even turn their
heads to see the mangled form which
their minds conjured up as lying on
the pavement below.
MURRAY was working on the nine
teenth floor and saw Eustice fall. He
reached far out and grasped the fall
ing man by his tough workingman's
blouse. He was not able to hold the
weight, but gave the descending body
a swing inward and the latter landed
on the eighteenth floor on pair "f
cross beams.
He was bruised. but that was all.
Murray looked down, saw that all was
we'll, and resumed riveting.

TELLS OF WAR
BETWEEN SUGAR.
ANOC0fFEE men
Member of Independent Ar
buckle Firm Says His
Firm Lost Million Fight
ing Price Cutting.

Washington, D. c., June 28.-Wil-
liam G. Gilmore, managing partner OF
Arbuckle Brothers of Brooklyn. re-
sumed the stand today In the house
sugar trust investigation and describ-
ed the war made on the American
Sugar Refining company by his Arm in
1s9S-99. The Arbuckles began manu-
featuring refined sugar in 1898 and
since then have been Independent OF
the trust
I'VE cut the price rs points under
the trust price soon after we started
in West Virginia and Ohio" said Mr..
Gilmore, because the trust sought to
induce the Wholesale grocers In those
states to buy sugar exclusively from
the American. This was In 1908.
I'VE kept the price down four or
five points and got the business in
those states. Eventually the price re-
turned to normal, but the American
never did get back all its business in
those states"
The American first cut the price un-
der Arbuckles, the witness said, from
10 to Is points and when this was met
the trust began campaign to produce
exclusive contracts. Drastic price cut
ting ceased about the close Of 1899.
During that period Mr.. Gilmore said,
his Arm lost in the sugar business
about $1,25O,OOO. The witness also
related how, after the Arbuckles went
into the sugar business, the Ameri-
can engaged in the coffee business and
built coffee plant at Toledo, Ohio.
This retaliation was under the direc-
tion OF H. O. Havemeyer. It was in
tended as destructive competition" !"
Mr.. Gilmore said, ito discredit the
package coffee business, and they ran
1t to the ground in four or five years" !"

The COMMITTEE
Two Lumber Men, Active as
Lobbyists, Testify They
Never Heard Of Slush
Fund to Elect Illinoisan.

washington, D. c., June 2S.-Adher,
ents of Senator Lorimer had their IN
nings today before the senate com
mittee Investigating his election when
Hugh Mclean, Of North Tonawanda,
and John Mcleod of Buffalo, N. y,
both lumbermen, swore that they knew
absolutely nothing of the raising OF Q
fund to eject Senator Lorimer.
Both men came to Washington on
different occasions as members OF
delegations interested In lumber leg.
islation. each time meeting Edward
Hines. the Chicago lumberman, VINO
was charged with saying he raised
money ito put Lorimer over at Spring
field.'' Mr.. Mclean testified that the
only thing Mr.. Hines had ever men.
toned to him about the Lorimer cleo
ton was that the newspapers only
printed one side of the matter.
Edward Hines was today exciuoeo
from the room where the senate com
mittee Is holding its investlgatlon
into the election Of Senator Lorimer.
This action was taken by the commit
tee at an executive session.
The committee considered 1t mad
yisable that Mr.. Hines should be per-
mitted to listen to the testimony.
Since Clarence S. Funk OF Chicago,
took the stand Mr.. Hines has been
allowed to be present In the committee
room, and hear the witnesses, whose
evidence largely had centered about
his alleged remarks about the Lorimer
election expense.
Rush Culver, lumberman and law
yer of L'Anse, Mich, was the nrst
witness before the senate committee
investigating the election of Senator
Lorimer. When the investigation was
on before the Helm committee OF the
Illinois legislature Shelby B. Jones OF
Marquette, Mich, was reported TO
have stated that Culver was present on
an occasion In 1909 when Edward
Hines, millionaire lumberman, declar'
ed he had "just succeeded In making
q United States senator at the cost OF
500, 900" Jones testified yesterday
that the conversation was in 1907 and
was simply that Lorimers election,
presumably to the house, probably
'cost barrel Of money
AS soon as Mr.. Culver was sworn
the committee went into executive
session, after which he began his
testimony by telling of business rela-
tions with Edward Hines.
Contradicting some OF the testimony
as the Springfield investigation ne
said he had not seen Hines since
Lorimer's election to the senate.
To Give Up TeIegrams.
At the afternoon session Attorney
Hanecy announced on behalf of Sena-
tor Lorimer that he gave consent for
the segeant-at-arms of the house and
senate to turn over to the committee
all official kilograms Mr.. Lorimer had
sent while congressman or senator.
