THE $ioo.Ooe LoRIMER FUND.

The legislature and the state o
Illinois know now why the Record
Herald declared repeatedly. and witt
great confidence. that money hai
been paid to elect Lorimer.p The,
know that the paper was abundant,
justified in making this declaration
and in asking pointedly to whom tbs
money was paid.
The testimony Of Mr.. Clarence S
Funk, general maneger' off, the sInter
national Harvester Company, before
the, Helm COMMITTEES is as. direct as
il il impressive and weighty, Mr..
Funk's high character and unimpeach-
able integrity totally disarm the So
phist at the outset. Mr. Funk tells
the whole truth and nothing bur the
truth in the simple but illuminating
account OF his accidental meeting
with Mr.. Edward Hines.
In a nutshell, his testimony is this
that Mr.. Hines. without a prelimi-
nary word, remarked that Mr.. Lori
mer had been "put over" with the aid
of 100000; that it had been neces-
sary to act quickly and to pay the
price without bothering about subse-
queIit apportionment; that now"
those who had found the cash wished
TO be reimbursed by some ten big
people" including the Harvester com
pany, and that Mr.. Funk might send
his check for $4,000 to Mr.. Edward
Tilden, the packer.
Mr.. Funk adds that he unhesitat-
ingly, then and there, informed Mr..
Hines that mis- company would have
nothing to do with the affair, and
that when shortly after the occur
renee he reported 1t, as mere mat
ter OF information, to President Cy-
rus H. Mccormick, the latter said:
3'You did right; the International Har-
vester Company does not do business
IN that way. am glad you did no,
hesitate for an instant"
It Is neither necessary nor possible
to emphazise the startling nature Of
this testimony. 1t is, however, zorro
borated by Mr.. Mccormick himself,
who states that Mr.. Funk did report
the whole incident to him and that
he used the words above quoted.
That Mr.. Cyrus H. Mccormick or|
The International Harvester Com.
pany Is not in the business OF cor
rupting legislatures and buying orl
paying for purchased senatorships
and that MFR, Funk needs no "time'
TO think over bribery reimburse
ment proposals or consult superior
officers, scarcely needs saying to the
people VINO know them But this 10
another way Of saying that Mr.. Funk's
Testimony Il absolutely conclusive and
convincing On every point covered by

under way The sweet spring, be
tween the park proper and the base
ball grounds, was also visited By many
people yesterday.
Order is maintained at the wells
by a special policeman One Of the
desirable features Of the increased
attendance by the people Of the city
is the fact that the negroes are hope
lessly ii the minority A menace TO
the development Of the park has been
that the negroes have been allowed TO
monepolize it, Now, that the wells
have become popular, The negroes
who like to pose, loaf and gossip
about the place. to the disgust Of Wis
itols, are kept on the move White
children yesterday took charge OF
