Washington, June 2S,--His method
of bookkeeping and his loyalty to the
democratic party alike were under
fire today when Edwin Tilden. bank
director packing house manager and
corporation man generally, appeared
before the senate Lorimer commit
tee to testify that he was in no way
interested in the raising of a fund to
send Mr.. Lorimer to the senate.
Attorneys for the committee, attor-
neys for Senator Lorimer and mem
bers of the committee itself asked
Mr. Tilden in almost every conceiv-
able style of question if he had any
thing to do. or knew of anyone that

either before or after the election.

emphasis, that he did not.

by Senator Keynon to state of how

He thought" he was a director in

a long list of banks of which he was

ty he had the right to draw checks
on the banks accounts of twenty-five
or thirty corporations.
The witness testified that he did
not keep accurate books OF his per-
sonal business, merely loose leaf
memoranda Of his receipts and dis
hursements, and only memoranda Of
checks written instead of check
stubs. Senator Kern had the witness
describe in minute detail his personal
bookkeepings.
The witness said he was not proud
of his system but that ii answered

The committee did not ask Mr..

nothing whatever connected with the
election of Mr.. Lorimer and the
committee told him for the present

Los Angeles. June 2S.-That the
more or less mysterious and freakish
thyroid gland, in combination with
the effects OF various diets. may ex-
ert direct influence drawn from a
scientific narrative of experiments
conducted with mice which was read
today before the American Medical
association, by DIR. Reid Hunter, Of
Washington, ID. G.,
An increase in laziness in this coun-
try due to the hook worm was also
predicted by Dr. John W Colbert Of
Albuquerque, n NJ, as a result of the
late Mexican revolution Or Colbert
who is regarded as an expert In hook
worm diseases, declared that ex-rebels
afflicted with II. had crossed over in
10 the United States 10 work on rail
roads as section hands. Whether
they work or not, he said. they would
spread the disease. He added that in
response to his warning the rail-
roads had tnken measures to reduce
the danger Of infection.
In his experiments with the thoir-
old and different diets, DR. Reid said
he had observed remarkable effects.
He fed two groups OF four mice for
a period of four months, and found
that fecundlty Of sterility depended
upon the activity or idleness OF the
gland.
one group of the rodents was fed
upon oatmeal and liver This stimu-
lated the activity OF the gland and at
the end of the four months there were
no little mice, On the other hand
the second group. which had crack
ers. milk and eggs, increased to 10l
in the same period Cornmeal and
milk slightly reduced the birth rate
for a third group of four mice fed
upon this diet had sixty-nine young in
four months compared to the ninety
seven record of the second group.
Whether like experiments would
produce similar results among all
animals including humans, DIR. Hunt
did not say.
Following Dr. Colbert's paper, there
were others addresses on the subject
of the hook worm. Or. T.. f. Endi-
OFT Of Jackson, Cal, declared that the
hook worm Infection Is widespread
among the laborers In the deep mines
of Northern California DR.. Herbert
Gum, of San Francisco said he had
treated a college student who had
contracted the disease while working
IN the mines during vacation.
The Importance of checking the
spread OF the disease on the Pacific
coast was urged.
Practically all of the thousands OF
delegates attending the convention
were present tonight when DR.. John
y. Murphy of Chicago, the new presi-
dent of the association held his Off
