Columbia, April A sub-com-
mittcc Of the committee Investigate
iny the affairs OF the late State dis
DonSary met this afternoon and heard
testimony Of w. ri. MacFcat, Co
lumbia stcnographer, who had taken
testimony at the famous "label

mittee adjourned to meet at the call
Of tho chairman.
Mr.. MacFeat was the only witness
this afternoon. He was asked to
read certain Of his notes which show
ed that Attorney General Lyon had
brought out on cross-examination
at the label trial the statement that
Dennis Weikopf, the liquor drum
mer, against whom an indictment is
now pending, had deposited with a
Cincinnati trust company tho sum of
$500 to be paid to the State when
the indictment against him was nolle

This corroborated the statement
