AIDS OF MURPHY

Agent of Paving Firm Says He
Split Commissions With
Tammany Men.

New York, Dec. thames L. Gaff
ney, brother-in-la of Charles F. Muir
ply, and Joseph d. Carroll, former
treasurer of Tammany hall, split Sill,
600 in commissions with the agent OF
a paving company under an oral agree
ment by which they were to use their
political influence to obtain contracts
for the company with the state high
way department, according TO .esti-
mony adduced at District Attorney
Whitman's inquiry into state highway
graft.
Two thousand dollars more of the
commissions went in cash, according
TO the testimony, to George NJ. Palmer,
chairman of the democratic state com
mittee, in response to a request for a
champaign contribution made by C..
Gordon Reel. deputy highway com
missioner, through whom the con-
tracts were obtained. The contribu-
ton, the district attorney learned, was
never reported.
The agent was John VI. Murphy, rep
resenting the firm of Warren Bros. of
Boston, manufacturers of bitulithic
and other pavement material. ard it
was he who gave the testimony.
IL is known to be considered by Dis
trict Attorney Whitman the most i'm
portant he has thus far brought to
light and that at an early date he will
place it before the grand jury and
seek an Indictment for conspiracy
Before taking up the case. however,
Mr.. Whitman will place before the
jury evidence that State Chairman
Palmer received political contribu-
ton from corporation, an offense for
which Arthur A. Mclean, treasurer of
the democratic state committee, now
stands indicted. Such evidence was
given yesterday by Dudley E. Van
Writ, vice president of the Flood &
Van Writ Engineering and Construc-
ton company of Hudson Falls. y. Y
Mr.. Van Writ is expected to go before
the sand jury tomorrow.
Van Wirt's testimony was that he
sent a contribution of $500 in behalf
Of his corporation to George NJ Palm
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1913-12-11

er in 1912 at the solicitation of Ever
EFT p. Fowler, to be used in paying
party expenses at the Baltimore con
ventio /. The check, indorsed by Palm
er and also Arthur A. Mclean, was
produced in evidence.
Van Writ said he had made three
other contributions to the democratic
state committee, one in 1911 for $500,
to Norman Z. Mack, and two others to
Palmer in 1912, one of $4,000 and one
of 81 800. These three were, however,
his individual checks, he said, al
