The letter from Mr.. Williams of

testified among other things. that he
remembered his mother taking him
from the Bromley farm to her father s
home because of the i'll treatment she
had received there, when he was seven
years old. The abuse of his mother by
his grandfather Bromley had been
continual up to the time of their leav-
ing the farm in April, 1911.
On one occasion when his mother
left the farm she went to NOrthamp
ton and engaged in nursing in a hos
pital- He went to school at Burr &
Burton seminary and later to, the
Clawson Hamilton commercial college
in this town and his mother paid his
expenses.
He told of his mother living at the
Davis house on Canal street where
they had two rooms. of which she oc-
cupied one and he the other. Later
they lived at 76 Canal street, where
his mother took boarders and also at
80 Prospect street Burby roomed
part of the time at each place.
Mrs Bromley, in her direct testi-
monv. sketched her life career, corrOb-
Grating the testimony of her son so
far as it concerned her movements.
She testified that she had been
school teacher before her marriage at
the ace of 10 and that her child was
bern i months after marriage. She
swore that her father-in-law s abuse
of her began almost as soon as she
went to live ut his farm with her hus-
band and that on one occasion he
forced her out of the house at
o clock in the morning.
She said on direct examination that
she finally made up her mind early in
1911 to leave and told her father-in-
law 90 and went up stairs to pack her
trunk and that he came up and forced
Ter out of the house and abused her.
On cross examination she was taken
more carefully over some portions of
her story as told in direct examination.
She said that she nursed in the North
a19pton hospital four months and ad-
mitted that she met Burby on the
street there She denied emphatically
that she had ever written him that
she had found him job there in
livery stable, adding that she did not
know whether there was livery stable
in northampton. She returned to the
farm because her husband wrote her
to come back.
After she had been taken through
the financial transactions with Burby
she was asked whether she did not
know that Burby was in Brattieboro
at the time she left the farm finally,
and she denied any such knowledge
Asked whether she bad not beeen ae-
cused by her father-in-law of having
improper relations with Burby, she re
piled that he had accused her Of mis-
behaving with everyone who was ever
employed on the place.
! An occasion when her husband
chased a man through the lot back OF
the house was mentioned, and she de

A Former New York Broker
Who ImpersOnated Sew
eral Congressman
FIGHT EXPECTED
ON EXTRACTION
Prominent Figure in the Lobby Inquiry
in Washington Held in That City to
Answer to Charges Preferred in New
York

WASHINGTON, Sept. l2-David
Lamar, conspicuous figure in the Senate
lobby investigation here, and now I'M
der Indictment in New York for i'm
persOnating members of Congress was
arrested in this city last night by
order of Attorney-General McReynolds.
He was released on $4,000 bond What
promises to be long drawn out ex-
tradition contest will begin Wednesday,
the date set for Lamar 5 appearance
before the United Safes commissioner
at Washington. The warrant on which
the arrest was made was issued by the
federal court in New York and had
been taken to the capital before, only
to be carried back, the authorities hop
ing to get their hands on Lamar in
New York state and avoid the neces-
sity of extradition proceedings and
delay of probably a year or more.
Ia the meantime Lamar has been in
Washington stopping at a downtown
hotel and appearing at the capitol all
most daily to attend sessions of the
Senate lobby committee. Lately he had
vainly tried to get the investigators
TO hear him expose what he said was
great railroad lobby maintained in
Washington r. o. Campson, a New
York special agent of the department
of Justice, went to Washington yester-
day afternoon with the bench warrant
and, accompanied by several district
officers, arrested Lamar as he was en-
tering his hotel The prisoner did not
seem surprised, and within a few min
utes had summoned by telephone his
LAWYER and bOndSman.
When Lamar former Wall street
broker, first took the witness stand be
fore the Senate committee and nonchal-
antly told of impersonating Represent
ative A. Mitchell Palmer of PennsyI-
vania, Representative Riordan Of New
/ York and other public men, in an effort
/ to have Edward Lauterbach, a New
/ York lawyer. employed by the Union
t Pacific railroad for work in Washing
/ ton, it was said that there was no law
! by which he could be reached. Later,
I however. the case was investigated by
the federal grand jury in New York
and indictments returned charging the
former broker with impersonating fed
craI officers with intent to defraud
This is said to be the first attempt
on record to punish impersonation of
a member Of Congress, although there
have been various instances of such
representations and bills have been in
troduced to make the act unlawful.
The process of extraditing from the
District of Columbia is extraordinarily
slow. When arraigned before the com
missioner, Lamar Will demand proof OF
n prima facie case against him and the
government will then present the record
Of the New York indictment. If ex
tradition is ordered, then the prisoner
may bring the matter before the SUI
preme court of the district by suing
out writ of habeas corpus.

Upon being inquired of as to her
relations with Burby she became hys-
