MRS. HENN|NG A
STRANGER TO FUNK
Names of Hines and Lorimer
Brought in When Funk Tells
of Being Solicited for S10,-
600 for Campaign.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.--The state We'd
nesday rested it's case against Atty.
Daniel Donahoe and Detective Isaac
Etiefel, charged with having con-
spired to defame Clarence s. Funk.
Funk took the witness stand and de-
clared that ne never saw Mrs. John
c. Henning before she testified in this
trial
Funk disclosed what the state al
legged to be the motive for the attacks
on Funk by repeating a portion of his
testimony in the Lorimer senatorial
investigation.
The court would not allow Mr..
Funk to testify that he had been
watched by detectives. one of whom
told him that he was employed by
Edward Hines
The names of Hines and Lorimer
were brought in when Funk reiterated
his statement before the Lorimer in
vestigating committee of the senate
that Hines asked him for $40. 900 to-
ward a 100000 fund that had been
used TO put LOrimer over, as United
States senator.
Investigation was begun Wednesday
of an alleged attempt to tamper with
the jury. II was reported to Judge
Pam that a man had stood near an
air shaft, opposite the jury's hotel
apartments and had tried TO attract
their attention.

RESULT 4 SURPRISE.

The result was admittedly a surprise
to the political prophets. The inside
crowd of the citizens had been conf
dent for a week or so, but the COM
mon or garden variety were evidently
not up on the dope.
Had the citizen hackers been willing
a hazard a little money they could be
starting for vacations in the Bermu-
daS now. Joyce money. was begging
for takers at odds of 10 TO seven and
two and a half to one. One citizen
backer offered $50 to $125 on a 800
plurality for Keller and the Joyce
hackers fought each other TO get at
him and cover the offer. One cigar
store reported that only about $4,000
changed hands there, whereas in other
elections the amounts have run to
$4,000 and over.
One ardent republican was sure that
Loughman would run ahead of Keller.
He is short just five round dollars to-
day.
Many causes are assigned for the
Keller victory Billy Sunday is given
credit by many for playing a consid-
erable part in the victory. Then Kel-
Ter is a good campaigner, a good pol
itician and generally popular. He is
a much better mixer than Joyce. PeO-
pie have TO know Joyce before they
realize the character of the man. Kel-
Ter the man, was much more widely
known than Joyce the man. And per-
sonality cut a big figure in the result.
The list of causes could be run on
indefinitely, the fact that the demo-
Gratis had been in power for u years
and many thought the time had come
for change. and so on and on.
The dopesters can also work this
out perhaps as they sit around the
comfortable CRATE fires this winter and
listen TO the wind bowling mournfully
through the lonely pines.

ming Of the end" of harmonious rela-
tions in the business came when they

for a dissolution of the firm of Elbel
brothers, music dealers, was begun
before Judge Funk in the circuit
court Wednesday morning.
Attorneys for Richard and Robert
Elbel the defendants, filed an answer
entering denial to Herman's charges
and setting up the allegation that the
business is now organized as a cor
pOratiOn and not a partnership, the
theory adopted in the complaint
The answer sets up in reply to Her
man ElbePs charges that he was
frozen out" Of participation in the
affairs Of the business that in January,
1913, he was succeeded on the board
of directors by Mrs Ella Elbel wife
of Robert Elbel. 1t is alleged that

Robert and Herman El0el. The capi-
tai stock was $4,000.

Herman was paid $3.50 a month sal
airy which is equal to the amount
drawn By the other two brothers The
change in the dictatorship at which
Herman was succeeded by Mrs Elbel
is alleged TO have been affected regu-
larly and it is also charged that the
former recognized the change.

six months after the change in direct
orship the plaintiff charging that he
had been ousted from participation in
the affairs Of the concern and asking
for receiver TO sell the assets and di-
vide the proceeds among the three
brothers. Herman alleged his at
tempts to buy the shares of the other
two brothers or to sell his own 10
them were fruitless.
The defense made request for a
special finding of facts and cOnclu-
sions OF law to be made by Judge
Funk. which was concurred in by the
plaintiff.

NE VI FEATURE IN
CURRENCY BILL

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-An entirely
new feature was tentatively written
into the administration currency bill
Wednesday by the senate committee,
after a full day of heated wrangle.
The new plan was characterized by
Chairman owen, chief administration
supporters in the committee, as
said that the committee adjourned
with the matter up in the air
The new scheme would provide for
the Capitalization of One-half of the
reserves to be held by the regional
banks in the proposed new system.
This proportion would be placed un-
der the complete control of the feder-
al reserve board and would be located
at Washington TO be administered for
the aid and convenience OF the entire
banking system.
As finally voted upon the PROPOSE
ton was a modification of a plan pro-
posed by Senator Reed OF Missouri.
who suggesed it as a means of com
posing the wide differences among
members of the committee. Sen. Reed
and Sen. Hitchcock joined with the
republicans in voting for the plan.
which was opposed by Sens. owen.

1t was a great election from the
standpoint of the political dopesters.
With sharpened pencils and reams
of paper they may spend the long
winter evenings in figuring out just
what votes went to the various candi-
dates in Tuesdays election here, and
what became Of the rest of them and
why.
For example, there were 1O.7I1
people voted Tuesday out of some H.
5G0 of them who had registered for
the election some three weeks ago.
Nearly 1890 of them forgot TO vote.
Were they Joyce men who stayed

they have rolled up an even bigger
plurality for Keller? Why didn't they
vote?

that throw any light on the situation

The dopesters can spend a week or

of which there were total of Sill,

Who stayed Away?
Some 800 people voted at the cleo
ton who stayed away from the pri-
maries Were they republicans and
prOgressiveS who hadn't made up their
minds about the citizens ticket? Or
what?
Joyce got Z. .659 votes in the primary
and 4.345 in the election. However.
there were 5.755 votes cast in the
democratic primary. Did the 1884

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5. - Waiting
for word from Provisional Pres. HUI
erta-this was the attitude of Off
ciaI Washington Wednesday N the
Mexican situation.
Administration officials still refused
to shed any light on the last COM
munication which conveyed TO Gen.
Huerta the desire of the United States
that he eliminate himself from the
tangled situation.
Their attitude is that to discuss
publicly the delicate phases of the
problem might defeat the ends being
sought.
The feeling in the national capital
is none the less one of tense interest,
especially as TO what course will be
pursued if Gen. Huerta declined to
abdicate. II was evident from those
who talked with Pres. Wilson about
the situation Wednesday that he was
calmly awaiting developments He
has told his friends that he would
continue to try TO solve the situation
by peaceful means and would not be
disturbed by predictions of armed in
tervention.
The belief is general here that the
situation is being worked out with
extreme secrecy in diplomatic chan
nels and that only when some tangible
conclusion has been reached. Will
there be any official announcements.
There was no collective opinion in
official circles as to what Huerta's re-
ply to the American representations
might be. No one ventured predic-
tions and so far as could be learned
no intimations had been received as
TO Huerta's future attitude.
