ned today before the. senate Lorimer

ment. The hearing opened5with q dis
cussion Of the alignment 81 factions
In Illinois politics In connection, with
the senatorial contest.
Hanecy suggested that none Of the
followers Of Chauncey DePew or John
X. Thompson voted for Lorimer until
after the senatorial conference held
IN the governors office. Deneen re-
piled that the purpose OF that meeting
was to prevent their followers from
voting for Lorimer.
Gov. Deneen said that before the
publication Of the alleged White con-
fession, Editor Kelley Of the Chicago
Tribune suggested to him that q spe-
cial session Of the legislature be con-
vened to. consider the Lorimer case.

ably would report, II the, men were
guilty and a special, session was not
called. ss.s

the Office Of the Tribune the night
the White copy was printed. He said

Of the governors vetoing "one" bill
was taken up. The governor said that
he had examined his vetoes and
guessed" White was referring to the

LOSE THEIR LIVES.
FOUR OTHERS ARE HURT
Were Preparing to Go Home After
Tenth Day of Target Practice at
Sparta Range-A Shell Premature
ly Went Off.

Sparta.-Two members of the Ohio
National guard were instantly killed
when large shell exploded in can
non at the United States army range,

The dead are:
Corporal Roland Beverly, Cleve-
land, battery A, Fifth Ohio artillery.
Private Howard w. eau, Cleve-
land, same battalion.
All of the injured men were from
the Cleveland battery.

premature explosion of a defective
shell in the mouth of a three inch
gun which was being used in the tar
get practice work The force of the
explosion was SO great that the men
killed were blown fifty feet away
ished. Flying fragments of the
bursted gun were sent in all direc-

heard for great distance.
The Ohio companies had been on
the range for ten days, and after

which exploded was to have been
the last fired. Military discipline

accident
