Some Are Flogeed and Others

sational rumors and 1t was announced

BILE, according to Warden Simpson.
The warden denied that he had
flogged many of the troublemakers,
but it was admitted that several pris-
oners were suffering solitary confine-
ment, while others have been strapped

Wonder Who viii Be First.
Much speculation Is abroad as to
who will be the first witness put upon
the stand when the committee con-
venes about September 80. A report
is current that Colonel Roosevelt
would not appear at that time, as he
will be touring the west.
Inasmuch as the committee has sub
poenaed no one to appear before it,
but has left the date of appearance
to the discretion of witnesses, it ia
believed by many that this course
will be followed in regard to Colonel
Roosevelt.

When He Gets Back to Chicago He Will
Be Welcomed as a Conquering
Hero--Glad It's Over.

Washington, July I6.-William Lori

ing his time in departing from Washing
ton. Yesterday he was at the office he
has occupied as senator in the Senate
office building, packing up books, docu-
ments, and records, and getting ready to
go.
True to the attitude he has thus far
maintained, Lorimer was cheerful. even
optimistic. He did not look as il ex-
pulsion from the Senate was heavy
burden TO bear. II might fairly be said
he wore the air Of man who was glad
the fight was over and who had load
lifted from his shoulders.
Lorimer plans to depart in two or
three days. He continued yesterday
morning to get kilograms of sympathy,
and some Of his supporters in Congress
called on him,
The "blond boss" talked freely about
various things, but he had nothing def
mite to say concerning his political plans.
He recalled several things he would have
liked to say but forgot to say in his

Plans are making in Chicago to give
Lorimer reception such as would lie
given a eonquering hero.

SEEKS new HEARING
ON PATENT MONOPOLY
Attorney General Will Attempt to Have
the Former Judgment of Supreme
Court Reversed,

Washington, July l6.-Attorney Gen
eral Wickersham has begun preparations
10 have the full bench of the supreme
court of the United States pass upon the
patent monopoly question. The issue
will be reopened through the antitrust
move against the "bathtub trust" which
has been appealed to the supreme court
by the defendants, who were ordered
to dissolve the trust by the United
States circuit court for the district of
Maryland. Mr.. Wickersham has as
signed Edwin p. Grosvenor, his special
assistant, who conducted the case in the
lower courts, to take charge of the ques.
tion in the supreme court, which with
seven members sitting decided last
spring, four to three. that the owner of
a patented article might restrict its use
and stipulate the use Of certain appurte-
nances. The decision affected several
pending trust cases and a great number
of monopoly Investigations under way.
Before attempting to restrict the pat
ent monopoly by legislation, officials are
anxious that the full bench OF the su.
preme court pass upon the issue.

EXPECT GOTHAM
GAMBLING SCANDAL
District Attorney Probes the Charge OF
Organized Police
Protection.

New York, July l6--Thst gambling
scandal which might equal some of the
revelations OF the noted Lexow investi-
CATION of the city police department, was
likely to follow the falling out OF some
of the leading gamblers was the gen
eral belief here to day.
District Attorney Whitman hurried
back from his vacation to start an in
vestigation of the charge that organized
police protection again existed and that
a score of well-known gamblers were
operating unmolested in the fashionable
section of the city.
Whitman admitted that Herman Ro-
senthal, who alleges he had police lieu
tenant as partner in his gambling
house, told him this story a month ago.
Il told him." said the district attor-
ney yesterday, that if he would bring
some evidence besides his unsupported
word, | would refer the matter to the
grand jury. This office is ready to pre-
sent to the grand jury, at any time, evil
dence which involves the police or any
other city department, but it has no
right to waste the time of the grand jury
BY calling witnesses whose evidence is
based on hearsay Stories
1t was reported, however, that Ger
tain private detective agency, which
makes a business OF uncovering munich
pa! corruption has been engaged for
several weeks investigating the alleged
alliance between the local gamblers and
certain city officials, and that its report
win be presented to the district attor-
nev shortly. Whitman when told of this
report said he knew nothing about the
matter
