A 6razen Counterfeit
Louis Marshall devoted several
scratching pages OF his address TO the
testimony OF Duncan w. Peck. suDer-
%intendent OF public works. who swore
that Governor Sulzer had asked him
to deny under oath tnat he had given
him a $500 contribution. Marshall de
clared that his story was n 'brazen
counterfeit and accused Peck OF hay-
ing a strong motive for so testifying
because John A. Hennessy. the gov
%ernOr's special Investigator. had nm
earthed irregularities OF a serious
nature" IN Peck's department. He
said that Peck's testimony would
enable him TO aid in the destruction
OF the man who had set in motion the
Investigation which Threatened not

very liberty"
This evoked a statement from Peck
tonight in which he characterized
MarshaIls attack upon him as a lie

Tho purpose for which each con.
