ENTICED INTO
THE CULM DEAL
Alleged Plot to Trap Arch
bald Told by Witness.
COCKRELL ON THE STAND
state Commerce Commission Gives
Interesting Testimony Before House
Investigating Committee.

Washington, May 14.-A purported
deliberate plan of w. p. Boland, the
Scranton (Pa.) coal dealer, who origin
ated the charges against Judge Rob
ert w Archibald of the commerce
court, to entrap the jurist in embarras-
sing transactions, was revealed before
the house judiciary committee which
is investigating the case.
Allen Cockrell, confidential secre-
tary of the interstate commerce COM
mission, read to the committee his
memorandum of w. p Boland's orig
inal statement of the charges against
Judge Archibald.
Boland, according to the memor-
andum, told interstate Commerce Com
missioner Meyer he purposely sought
to entrap Judge Archibald i'm the Katy
did culm bank transaction after a de-
murrer in a suit against his coal com
pany had been decided against him in
Judge Archbald's court.

Jams to Archibald to lure him into the
Katydid culm option deal with the
Erie railroad, after Williams had come
to him with Judge Archbald's $500
note for discount. Boland refused to
discount the note and subsequently
his demurrer was decided against him.

mitted, according to Cockrell, he had
used Williams in an effort to involve
the Judge in discreditable transac-
tion.

randum of charges against Judge
Archibald which was submitted by In
terstate Commerce Commissioner Mey-
er. Cockrell made notes of the
