TRIBUNE IN LOR|MER CASE
EVASION OF TAXES BY PAPER IS
 PUT IN EVIDENCE.
keeley Testifies to Accident in Make up That Put lorimer Bank Story
 Near Expose by White.

Washington, b. C.-In order to discredit the Chicago Tribune, Lori mers old-t:me enemy, Elbridge Han ecy, counsel for the Illinois se,ator, introduced in evidence before the sen ate Investigating committee long statement made by former Gov. Alt geld, in granting pardon to a Tribune employe.
 Altgeld's statement attacked the Tribune and it's employees, declaring the newspaper had avoided payment of S25, ,000 a year to the school fund for rental of the school lands on which it's building was located. Fail ure to pay it's just share of taxes also was intimated in the statement.
 Hanecy asked keeley many ques- tions to ascertain how it happened that an article saying that Lorimer' s national bank would be opened in nine days was placed immediately below Representative Whites confession of bribery in the legislature that elected Lorimer.
 Keeley explained that he was SUI perintending the makeup of the White story in the paper, and that when the story had been placed, there remained a hole at the end of it. A printer placed over it an article just long enough to fill it, and Keeley said it was an accident that the item hap. pened to be notice about Lorimer' s bank
