der oath last Thursday that he had
sent a telegram to John a, Hcnncssy,
former Governor Suizers graft inves-
tigator relative 10 politicians today ad-
mitted he was the author of the telc-
gram.
A threat of indictment Of perjury
was hanging over him when the ad-
mission fell from his lips and he left
the witness stand almost in a state OF
collapse.
A physician was called to attend
him. Mcclure was testifying for a
second time In the John Doc inquiry
instituted by District Attorney Whit
man into Hennessy's charges that con-
tractors on state work had been sand
bagged" into making campaign con-
tributions to Tammany hall Hennes-
sy had testified that he obtained most
of his information from Mcclure and
that the latter had sent him a tele-
gram from Syracuse signed M" set
ting forth that William Kelly. leader
OF the Democrats of Onadaga had
helped Mclean, Democratic state
treasurer to shake down state high

who took with him typewriter
brought from McGuire's office. The
stenographer testified it is understood,
that the machine was one which Nc
CURE himself frequently used and the
expert declared the letters originally
on the telegram corresponded with
the letters on the machine.
Mcclure was informed at his hotel
OF the contemplated action of the d is
trict attorney against him and soon
afterwards friends telephoned Mr.
Whitman saying he had collapsed.
They asked Mr. Whitman what he
would promise IF Mcclure told the
truth" The district attorney replied
he would promise nothing but that
Mcclure would be indicted for per-
jury If he did not tell the truth
Mcclure was shown the original
of the telegram when he took the
stand and was asked If he had writ

freshed my memory; ] wrote IT,"
Mr.. Whitman then questioned Nc
CURE regarding a conversation with

investigator says, Mcclure gave him
