the Scandal.
MORE ABOUT "SlUSH FUND"

Springfield, H.. April 26.-Governor
Deneen issued statement in which
he emphatically denies that he ever
held long distance telephone CONVEX
sation with Edward Hines, such as
was related by w II. Cook on the wit
ness stand before the Lorimer senate
bribery committee.
John Pfeffers, former private secre-
tary to Albert j. Hopkins. testified
that former State Senator George M.
Mccormick, ten days before Lorimers
election, said that he (McCormick)
had been offered $500 provided he
would vote for Lorimer for senator.
Cook, an official of the Virginia e
Rainey Lake Lumber company, of Du-
conference with Hines In the Grand
Pacific hotel. in Chicago, shortly after
the election of Lorimer to be United
States senator.
Cook testified that Hines met him
and a Mr.. furnish, another lumber
man. from Duluth, in a hotel.
"How are things going down at
Washington" furnish asked Hines,
testified Cook.
Like h" replied Hines.
Cook then stated that Hines said he
decided the lumber interests needed
a better senator at Washington and
that Lorimer had been selected as the
proper man to take care of the tariff
on lumber.
During our talk the telephone
rang" said Cook. Il answered it, and
the girl said: Here's Springfield; the
governor is on the wire.
Hines said over the phone: It's
Springfield on the next train with all
the money that will be needed. Don't
stop at anything.
Cook said Hines later was greatly
excited because he (Hines) said he
had discovered that instead of talking
to former Governor Yates he had by
mistake been connected with Governor
Deneen.
G. F. Wiehe, Hines brother-in-law,
requested that he be allowed to ask
Cook some questions. Wiehe was then
brought into the committee room and
said to Cook:
did you send me threatening let
ter, which you asked me to give to
Edward Hines, in which you said that
unless Mr.. Hines did certain things
regarding the Virginia and Rainey
Lake Lumber company you would ex-
pose him in connection with his ac-
tivity in aiding Mr.. Lorimer's cleo
tion?"
Cook admitted having sent such a
letter. Wiehe then asked. whether
Cook had threatened to sell his stock
in the Virginia and Rainey Lake Lum-
Der company to 1000 colored persons
to compromise Hines as head of the
company. Cook denied that he had
done so.
The letters from Cook to Wiehe and
from Cook to F. e. Weyerhauser, in
which Cook demanded that Hines
withdraw as president of the Virginia
and Rainey Lake Lumber company or
suffer exposure in connection with the
Lorimer affair, were produced. In one
letter Cook declared that unless Hines
withdraw, he would publicly expose
his alleged corrupt practices in the
election of Lorimer.
