Lorimer Witness Relates Story OF
$4,000 Check-Hopkins Tells
Bribe Talk.

Springfield, 1ll.-A statement attrib'
uted to c. e. Weihe, brother-in-law
of Edward Hines, was presented to
the Helm investigating committee by
William Burgess of Duluth. Mr.. Bur-
CESS testified that on the seventh OF
last month Mr. Weihe, who was
total stranger to Mr.. Burgess, made
the boast to Burgess that 100000 had
been raised to elect William Lorimer
senator and that he. Weihe, had put
up $4,000 himself
Burgess, on taking the witness
stand, told of a railroad journey on
the Winnipeg Flyer between Duluth
and Virginia in March, 1911. He said
a man named Johnson of trade pub
LEGATION. one Randolph, John and Carl
Weyerhauser, Weihe and another man
were in the party, the smoking COM
partment, aboard sleeping car.
Burgess said the subject Of William
Lorimer's election came up in the
course of conversation. Burgess, dur
ing this chat on the subject of Lori
mer, said he expressed the opinion
that the senator had used money to
effect his election.
"'You don't know what you are
talking about Weihe said to me-" tes-
tilted Burgess.
Burgess then said Weihe declared
Lorimer never spent cent, but that
a jackpot was raised by Lorimer's
friends to effect the election.
Il know what l am talking about"
Weihe was quoted by Burgess as say
ing, because l put up $4,000 for that
jackpot"
Burgess concluded his testimony by
stating that while Hines and members
of the Weyerhauser family were
aboard the sleeper, none of them was
in the smoking compartment when
Weihe, who is secretary Of the Ed
ward Hines Lumber company, made
this statement regarding Lorimer's
election.
Ex-senator Albert ]. Hopkins testi-
fed that he was approached frequent
ly with suggestions that for certain
amounts he could purchase votes to-
ward reelection, but invariably re-
piled that he was a candidate for the
senate and not for the penitentiary.
Mr.. Tilden in brief said he did not
intend to return to Springfield or
bring his private books and papers be-
fore the committee He did offer to
select one member of the committee
to examine such records and report to
the other four members.
His affidavit denied all charges that
he had any connection with the Lori
mer scandal or even an acquaintance
with Mr. Hines.

RECIPROCITY BILL

PARTY LINES ARE DIVIDED
Ten Democrats and 70 Republicans
Vote Against the Measure-Taft
Makes Personal Appeal for
Its Adoption.

Washington.-By the decisive vote
of 264 to SO the house of representa-
tives passed the Canadian reciprocity
tariff measure, marking the close of
six-days' fight
Ten Of the opposing votes were cast
by the Democrats and the other 70
by Republicans. A majority of the
Republicans in the house voted
against the measure, and the fears of
President Taft were realized, namely,
that the reciprocity measure would go
through by Democratic votes alone.
At the last minute the president sum-
moned a group of Republican oppo-
nents of reciprocity to the White
House and made a personal appeal to
them. but without avail.
The bill now goes to the senate,
where strenuous efforts are to be
made, through amendments and other
wise, to defeat 1t. Announcements
that such was the plan of opposing
senators were made during the fight
In the house.
Most startling in their nature were
the explanations given by Chairman
Underwood of the ways and means
committee, of plans that had been
adopted by great trusts. monopolies
and interests to defeat the reciprocity
bill. That fight is still on and will
have to be met in the senate.
Mr.. Underwood, in his closing ad-
dress, charged that the American Pro
tective Tariff league, the steel and
lumber trusts had waged systematic
campaign against the bill, which in
cluded the sending of misleading tele-
grams to members of the house and
the closing down of steel mills, throw
ing thousands of workmen out of en-
ployment, to influence congressman
and senators.
