Washington, Feb. 9-Pubnc hear
lngs in the second senatorial inVesti-
cation into the election of Senator
Lorimer were declared closed today
by Chairman Dillingham; Of the SEN
ate LOrimer committee. Attorney
Hanecy, representing Senator Lori
mer, was given permission to file a
brief to the effect that the senator s
election was adjudicated before the
the present investigation began and
it therefore could not be the subject
Of a second investigation.
The inquiry has proved to be one
of the most exhaustive ever made by
a congressional committee In the
eight months hearing about 10000
pages of printed testimony were TAX
en-, constituting about 100000 words.
It is estimated that the stenographers
fees alone reach $4,000.
The closing hour of the hearing was
a veritable love feast. The attorneys
explained they had never intended
really to display temper and the COM
mittee added that it did rot entertain
like intentions. A w. Blumenburg,
the official stenographer who was dis
charged for his conduct before the
committee Saturday night, wrote a
letter of profuse apology, which was
read into the record.
Edward Hines was the last witness
called. He denied that he attempted

DEMOCRATS REDUCE
STRENGTH OF ARMY,
Five Regiments of Cavalry Wiped Out
by Vote of the House.

Washington, Feb. "a reduction Of
the cavalry force of the United States
army from Is to 10 regiments, with a
consequent reduction of the enlisted
force of the army by $3.50 men, was
voted into the army appropriation bill
in the house late today, after a bitter
fight.
The cavalry reduction amendment
was presented by Chairman Hay of
the military affairs committee who
was in charge of the SSS,000,000 appro-
priatiOn bill, but it did not bear the
endorsement of the committee. 1t was
vigorously opposed by the republican
side of the house, and it probably will
be the cause of another fight When the
bill is put upon its final passage.
Mr.. Hay said the United States army
was topheavy with cavalry. Where the
British cavalry force equal to one sixth
Of the infantry he said the American
cavalry was equal to One-half the in
fantry strength.
The Hay amendment as adopted to-
day would establish a maximum of 1C
regiments of cavalry. It was estimated
by Chairman Hay that the immediate
saving from the reduction in cavalry
force would be S4,367.253.
The present strength of the army is
80 regiments of infantry and Is regi-
ments of cavalry. The Hay amend
ment, if retained in the final draft OF
the army appropriation bill, would be-
come effective July l, 1912.
