Charges of MuIhaIl Against
BarthOldt, Colder, Sherley,
Webb and FairChiId Are De-
Clared UnfOunded.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Pres. Will
sons charge that lobbies existed at
the capital to influence legislation
were sustained in the report of the
house lobby investigating committee
presented to the house Tuesday The
charges preferred by Martin Nj. Null
hall against Reps. Bartholdt of Mis-
souri,, Calder of New York. Sherley
OF Kentucky. Webb of North Carolina
and Fairchil1 of New York, were how
ever, declared unfounded.
few points brought out by the
report follow:
That the main purpose OF the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers
was to prevent legislation curbing the
use of the Injunction against labor
unions.
That the tariff commission legisla-
tiOn in 1909 was not improperly in
fuenced by lobbies.
That no improper influences have
been eXerted in nominating or elect
ing congressman as far as the COM
mittee can ascertain.
That Rep. James G. McDermott of
Illinois has been guilty of acts Of
grave impropriety unbecoming the
dignity of the distinguished position
he occupies"
That Mulhall and Emery should
change their ways or remain away
from the capital for ever"
The committee states that a loan of
$500 given Rep. McDermott by Hugh
Harvey, secretary Of the Washington
did not influence his vote but the
transaction is severely condemned.
McDermott is eXOnerated of any i'm
proper conduct in connection with an
alleged contribution by Harold Nc
Cormick to his campaign fund In 1912.

F rom NEW
ORLEANS TO WE'D
IN SOUTH BEND
Young Couple Skip Out While
Preparations Are Being
Made for Elaborate Wedd-
ing in South.

After travelling all the way from
New Orleans TO South Bend, eluding
their parents and friends who were
planning for them the pomp and cir
cumstance of a fashionable wedding.
Rene Esnard. %, and Hazel Tillotson,
%, found the way to the altar block
ed by mere legal form.
By mere freak OF chance this i'm
pediment was removed the couple
were married hurriedly in Sacred
Heart church, Notre Dame, and re-
turned to Chicago early Tuesday.
Esnard is a dentist in New Orleans,
where his father is a capitalist. The
brides father is a travelling auditor,
with headquarters in New Orleans.
Miss Tillotson resided IN South Bend
with her parents several years ago.
Following the announcement of the
engagement of the couple, plans were
made for an elaborate society we'd
ding. The young people failed to get
enthusiastic over the brilliance of the
proposed function and secretly agreed
that il would be far more romantic
- slip quietly away and be married
while the wedding preparations were
going on. The elopement according
", was agreed upon.
''If mother could only see me now"
exclaimed the bride, as she glanced
down over her travelling suit while the
license was being issued in the county
clerks Office late Monday evening. Miss
Tillotson explained that her mother
had been preparing a. most elaborate
trousseau for her wedding which she
now will have no opportunity to dis
play.
The couple had left all their bag
gage in Chicago on their hurried trip
10 this city. They planned TO return
there and surprise friends.
License Was Invalid.
On leaving New Orleans they had
planned TO obtain a license in Chicago
and then slip over to South Bend to be
married at NOtre Dame. In Chicago
they applied for and obtained a license
only to learn that it was invalid in
Indiana. When they reached this city
late Monday they went Immediately
to the city clerks office to get the re-
ouired license but found an additional
difficulty in the fact that the licenses
are issued by the county clerk instead
OF the city clerk under the Indiana
laws.
1t was long past closing hour in
the county clerks office but fortunately
for the elopers a deputy clerk had re-
turned for some extra work In the
evening. The details were soon over
and armed with their two licenses the
couple were whirled away TO Notre
Dame where hurried preparations had
been made for the service.
