of Policeman Lynch of the sixth pre-

The attack on the girl was the result

story the girl told Judge Aukam, di Rosa

Alleged Offer for a Price.

The Indictment states that a congress
sional investigation Of Lorimer was pend
ing June 8 last and that the Chicago Tri
bune was concerned in securing evidence
and proof tending to establish the alleged
moral turpitude OF William Lorimer, SEN
ator from Illinois, for the purpose of es-
tablishing Loriiners unfitness and dis
qualification to retain his membership in
the Senate. Knowing this state of af-
fairs. it is alleged, CLAWS approached
John Callan O'Laughlin. the Tribunes rep

Overruled the Premier.

Verigin was KurIoffs right-hand man
and maintained close relations with Kur-
lOffs family. Kurloff, against Stolypin's s
most determined opposition. married the
divorced wife of a young adjutant. Stoly-
pin made the matter one of personal con-
ference to the emperor, but Kurloff's In
ffuential supporters at the court over
ruled the premier.
The Novoe Vremya says that only a
mere fraction Of Minister Chtcheglovit-
offs findings can ever be published. Pa
triotic reasons forbid the full exposure of
the scandalous criminal intrigues In high
governmental circles leading TO Stolypin s
sacrifice.
Only Gen. Trepoff's prompt measures in
throwing a Gordon about the theater and
checking the work of the secret police,
says the Fremya, prevented the escape of
Bogroff from the hands of justice. Col

cessful effort to have the prisoner kept at

Crowds About the Polls.

When the polls were opened this morn
ing there We're crowds of electors at al
most every city booth waiting to cast
their votes. Among those who deposited
their ballots early were Sir Wilfrid Lau-
rier and r. L. Borden, the opposing lead
ers. Premier Laurier voted in Quebec at
10 O'Clock, and about. the same hour Mr..
Borden cas-. his vote in Halifax. The or
ganization of each side appeared TO be
working smoothly.
Both sides continue to express conf
dence. The betting in Montreal last
night covered wide range of odds, with
liberal money most in evidence. A local
paper records a bet of $4,000 to $1,000
that the government will be returned.
Considerable money was placed at the
leading hotels on even money.
A well known brokerage firm posted
notice of $1,000 to bet on the govern
ment's return at various odds, based on
the size of the majority. Its Office was
besieeed by men anxious to bet, many
of whom were turned away on the
ground that they came too late and that
the bets had already been covered.
A sporting authority in Montreal esti-
mates that half million dollars has
been placed in election wagers in this
city, despite rigid Canadian statute
making election betting an imprisonable
offense and depriving the bettor of his
vote.
