BELLBoYS CONFESS PARTS IN
ALLEGED FUNK CONSPIRACY
Two former beIboys at the Grand
Pacific Hotel today confessed their
parts in the alleged conspiracy to
blacken the name of Clarence S.
Funk, former general manager of the
International Harvester Company,
whose testimony played an important
part in the unseating of William Lori
mer, former United States senator
from Illinois.

Daniel Donahoe and Detective Isaac
Stieffel, indicted as alleged conspira-
tors, the two bellboys-Edward Deu-.
ter and Patrick Enright-repudiated
their sworn statements in the $4,000
alienation suit filed by John G. Hen
ming against Funk, after the latter
testified in the Lorimer investigation.
They declared they had lied when
they said they saw Funk and Mrs.
Josephine Henning together in the
Grand Pacific Hotel, and swore that
for their part in the plot they were
paid $25 week each by Donahoe
and Stieffel from November, 1911,
until July, 1912, with additional
gifts" ranging as high as $87.
The bellboys were put on the stand
today when physicians reported to
the court that the condition of Mrs.
Henning, who suffered nervous col
lapse under cross-examination would
not permit her to resume the stand
until Monday.
Enright was first. employed by
