dR. BAILEY TAKES EXCEPTION

Itself in Future,
STORY COULD NOT BE FALSE
On the Contrary, There Are Many
Facts and Incidents that Cor

Instances.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 27.-senator Cum
Minis OF Iowa resuming his argument
against the adoption of the committee reso-
luton generating Senator Lorimer of
Illinois from the charge of having pro-
cured his seat by corrupt means, declared
today there were many circumstances to
sustain the char ges.
The Iowa senator continued his dissec-
ton OF the testimony in the case. He de-
clared 1t would have been impossible fer
the human mind to have fabricated such a
story as that supplied to the Chicago
Tribune by Representative White Of the
Illinois legislature without having it refuted
by the facts
This refutation, he said, had not resulted.
On the contrary, many circumstances cor
roboratlve Of the story had been collected
| by the committee. These were outlined at
length.
They included Lee O'Neil Browns visit
to St Louis and his meeting with White
in Chicago and the consequences growing
out of those two incidents.
Mr.. Cummins declared that there was not
one single undisputed item of testimony
that was not in harmony with the original
White story.

total vote. Saying there had been 2O2
votes cast in the senatorial election. he

friend Of Lorimer's had bought one other
vote for him, giving him 1O2, would Mr..
Lorimer have been elected?"
No" responded Mr. Bailey, he would
not have been, because in that case the
corrupt vote decides the result"
Then 1t makes difference when one
vote was corrupted or seven" responded
the Iowan, but the Texan would not con-
cede the point.
Mr. Borah contended that under Mr. Bal.
ley's reasoning candidate would get the
benefit OF half vote every time he bough,

Mr.. Bailey would not have II so and

LINCOLN, Jan. 2I-(SpeclRl)--The reso-
luton OF Senator Bartos bearing upon
Governor Aldrich and his Omaha message
started debate in the senate which took
up part Of the morning session. Senator
Brown spoke against hasty action OF any
kind and counselled moderation. The other
business transacted was the introduction
of a number OF new bills among which
were four originating from the insurance
department OF the state designed to give
the state auditor power 10 control the
formation OF new companies and TO give
that official greater powers OF inspection
The generosity OF Senator Bartos TO all
employees OF the senate was sadly dampened
Friday afternoon when message was
received from state Auditor Barton stating
that he could not constitutionally accept
a senate resolution as a basis for raising
salaries. Bartos moved to refer the matter
to a special committee and was appointed
chairman, Albert and Cox Hamilton weFe
appointed 10 help him confer with the
auditor.
An Invitation from the Lancaster County
Bar association 20 a banquet and meeting
brought from Senator oils the pertinent
remark that Il might be well TO appoint a
special committee and ascertain II there
were any lawyers IN the senate When
Bartos moved 20 adjourn Oils asked II an
adjournment could be regular when Bartos
had sent in no resolution against the gov
ernOr, Senator Bartos assured him that
more would be forthcoming Monday.
Brown rose 70 similar point Of order
and asked II session could be concluded
without first raising somebody's salary,
The adjournment was taken TO Monday
