Learning that Gov. Burleigh was to

trial of Clarence S. Darrow, for al

who provided Darrow with the al

examination of the principal witness
by Chief Counsel Rogers for the de-

Franklin's testimony on direct ex-
animation was at times dramatic in
the extreme. The witness departed
from his apparent willingness to tell
all he knew, to a seeming reluctance
to testify about close friends whom
he subsequently drew into his story
of jury corruption. Twice he appealed
to the court, once when he was asked
TO name man who was said to have
offered a bride to a venireman with
whom he was negotiating. and again
when Assistant District Attorney Ford
asked him to give the names of three
men whom he approached with offers
of brides.

H. F. Dougheriy, Atlantic
City, Pleads Not Guilty
To Accepting Bride in Concrete
Board Walk Matter.
But the Court Holds Him for the
Grand Jury.

Atlantic City, N. j., May 3t.-City
Councilman Harry f. Dougherty, ar
rested on charge of having accept
ed a bride of $500 in return for his
vote in councils for the passage OF
an ordinance providing for a concrete
board walk along The beach front, de-
signed to cost 100000 or more, was
given a hearing, today. Through his
lawyer he pleaded not guilty and was
held in $4,000 bail for the grand jury.
The hearing was expected to be
sensational and a great crowd gath
cred in anticipation of hearing sur
prising testimony, but little that was
new developed.
The first witness was William f.
Vail, citizen, who made the COM
plant against Dougherty He said he
obtained the information on which he
based his complaint from William j.
Burns, the detective.
Mr.. Burns ON the stand related that
he was summoned here to investi-
gate alleged corrupt acts and olson
estv in civic matters. He began his
investigation. he said, in April. 1911,
and continued it until August, when
he evolved a fake" board walk
scheme to catch certain couneiimen
and city officials. He summoned one
of his operatives here and had him
pass as mfr. Harris" New York
contractor.
Harris" became familiar with
councilmen, offered several of them
$1,000 each to pass the ordinance. pro-
viding for the board walk and paid
$500 apiece on account. Later Burns
related these councilmen were in
formed of the trap into which they
had fallen. According to his account,
all but one of them confessed and
returned the bride money Dougherty
refused to give back the money or to
confess and he was arrested.
Smiley, Burns operator, testified to
the installation of a distagraph in the
hotel of William Malta. one of the coun-
cilmen, who confessed. The instrument,
he said, was placed on the window Sill
of a room hidden behind a curtain with
the wires leading to room above where
two stenographers took down the inter
view between himself and the council
men at which the payment of the bride
money was. arranged. Smiley said he
paid Dougherty the $500 in 10 $50 bills.
Malta testified that he did not see

deal was clinehed. Councilman Lane.

steady stream of callers. Leading
business and professional men were
in the throng and many of the party
leaders in this city.
One gentleman expressed the gem
eral sentiments when he said that in
spite of the perhaps be-
cause of it, it was the best meeting
of the sort that he had ever known.
Prominent representatives of each
ward in the city were present and one
and all wished Mr.. Burleigh success
in his candidacy and promised him
their support at the primaries and
later at the polls
1t was a very notable gathering and
very clearly indicated the sentiments
of Bangor Republicans in favor of Mr..
Burleighs candidacy.

Lays Down UItimatum TO
The Legislature.
Won't Sign Any Railroad Legls-
Iation by That Body,
Unless II Sends Him Law for Public
Utilities Commission.

Boston, May 31.--In a formal state
ment. tonight, Gov. Foss laid down an
ultimatum to the Legislature, declar-
ing that he Will not sign any railroad
legislation passed by the general court
unless that body send to him a law
providing for the establishment of
public utilities commission or some
other measure giving to public au-
thority greater degree of control
over public service corporations.
The Governor said that he has
changed his mind on his original pub
lie utilities commission recommends
tion. Instead of a commission of five,
as urged in his original message. he
now fayors a commission of seven to
porations, or two separate commits
sions. one of three members TO con-
troll gas, electric and water companies.
and the other of five members to have
control over railroad. street railways
and telephone companies.
We have in Massachusetts con-
dition which must be remedied, in the
interest of the people and / propose
to do ali in my power to see that it Is
he said.
Il am not threatening the Legisla-
ture. | am not trying to coerce them;
| am only trying to do my duty, and as
| see 1t my duty is to see to it that no
further powers and privileges are Civ
en- to the railroads until the people
are given further control.
Mr.. Mellen and Mr.. Byrnes have
been making after dinner speeches
here for three or four years. and
promising lots of things; but they
haven't done anything" In conclu-
sion. the Governor denounced the Bos-
ton Railroad Holding Co., stating that
it never should have been created. and
that it must be got rid of as soon as
possible. He said the tendency of the
times is to get away from these com
panies, and as proof of this he said

National Democracy 10 Fight for
Life In Pine Tree State.

Washington. d. c., May 81 (SpeciaD.
Maine win be the most important po-
ltical battle-ground of the country this
year, in more than one regard. This is
emphasized just now by the activities
of the Democratic Congressional COM
mittee in organizing for their coming
campaign. They have just met to des-
igiate subcommittee and to arrange
for preliminary work, which means
looking after the situation in certain
states, including Maine. where the vote
will be taken early and where the loss
of Democratic district would be in
terpreted as a .harbinger of defeat
throughout the nation.
Ordinarily Maine is regarded as of
small moment upon a campaign for the
control of the National House of Rep
resentatives. The State elected a sol
id Republican delegation so long that
ii came to be thought of as a matter of
course. Bat with two Democratic mem
bers from Maine now in the House.
the situation takes on a new aspect.
Chairman Lloyd OF the Democratic
Congressional committee. believes there
is a lighting chance for Representative
McGfllicuddy in the Second Maine dis
triet but that Representative Samuel
w. Could in the Third district is as
good as done for. He has been casting
about to ascertain whether anything Is
possible to keep Brother Gould from
defeat, not SO mnch on account of
the untoward word OF the country Grom
the Democratic standpoint which Is
bound to attend the election of Re-
publican.
Third District Barometer.
From the view OF the Congressional
campaign committees, accordingly. the
Third Maine district, viii be barom-
etcr of House prospects in the coming
political struggle. Vermont, which
state votes in September in advance of
Maine, can not be Il barometer in that
particular. The two members of the
House from Vermont have long been
Republicans and the State Is SO over
whelmlingly Republican that no Demo
crat has a look in. Maine votes next
however, and If the Republicans get
back one or two districts in the State,
they will have great courage for car
rying the fight through and getting
control Of the House There viii be no
other Congressional elections in the
country, prior to November. which can
be taken as specially significant.
In similar manner. Maine Septem-
Der elections of a Legislature have been
of little Importance to the country at
large in the years gone by. When there
was United States senator to be
elected. Ii was everywhere taken for
granted that he would be a Republican.

publican 50 long no one thought of its
being anything else, Now this year
