DONOVAN Hill CASE
OPENS At STAMFORD
Evidence Being Taken Into Con.
tested Congressional Election

Stamford, July 12.-Taking Of
evidence in the action brought by
former Congressman jeremiah Dom
ovan, democrat, of Norwalk. contest
ing the seat Of Congressman e. j.
Hill Of Norwalk, republican. in the
national house Of representatives.
from the fourth Connecticut district,
began here today.
Donovan alleged that Hill in his
campaign exceeded the legal limit for
expenses. FILL denied this and makes
the counter charge that Donovan x
! pended more than the law allows.
The statutory limit in this district
for expenditures by congressional
candidate is $3.50.
Taken In library.
The testimony is being taken in
the library of the office Of States
Attorney Homer s. Cummings by
Walter and Charles Mcclure, stem
ographers, who are acting as COM
missioners. Mr.. Cummings appeared
as counsel for Donovan and Milton
Fessenden for Hill, assisted by J..
Henry ROraback, chairman of the
republican state central committee.
The session UP to recess was oc-
cupied with the examination of
Chairman Roraback and "A. G. Wheel
Ell. Hills political agent. That Of
the latter had not been completed
when recess was taken. and was to
be resumed this afternoon Mr., Hill
and Mr.. Donovan we're present.
Ror,aback Presents Statement.
Mr.. Roraback presented state
ment covering the receipts and ex-
penditures Of the committee during
the last campaign showing disburse-
ments in the state Of about $21, 900.
No part of this amount he said had
been expended in the fourth congress
sjona1 district. The money spent in
this district he said had been raised
by the fourth congressional district
committee. His list included $1,000
from A. G. Wheeler.
Mr.. Wheeler, who is director in
the Bank at Norwalk Of which Mr.
Hill is president testified that he had
acted as Hills political agent in 1912
as we'll as in the lsat campaign. Guess
toned about the 1912 campaign the
witness said that he could not remem-
Der the exact contributions in the
district but he though they were
less than $1,000.
Interrupted for Recess
His testimony was interrupted for
recess. Tits thought probable that
the hearings here may last two days
and will then be held at other places
When the testimony is completed
It will be sent to the congressional
committee ct Washington which will
then hold a hearing.

Mayor Thompson reads It. In the last
80 months Chicago has sold 1851
900 bonds over the counter-at PAR.
The bankers generally bid less than
par. The city saved 1 per cent, and
possibly 2. Hewitt says that means
in cash $16,810 to $33,62O. r..
Most of the buyers were people
who had small savings accounts,
drawing 8 per cent. They get per
cent on the bonds. A gain of 1 per
cent for the city and the same for
the buyers. They cut out the mid
dleman.
The city will open bids tomorrow
for $5,79S,000. Of these $467 900
are 500 bonds and $44S, 900 are $500

If the entire lot were in 500 bonds
the city would save probably $57 $3.50

WEAK STOMACHS CAUSE GAS

Stomach gas which is a cause of great
discomfort to many people is caused by
the food being retained so long that it
ferments if it is vegetable food or putre-
fies if it is animal food. The usual treat
ment is to forbid the use of the food that
is causing the trouble. This stops the
discomfort caused by gas but few people
like to be put on limited diet. They
generally try another doctor.
Food is retained until it causes gas be-
cause the digestion is weak. That is a
simple statement of a complicated condi-
ton. Digestive weakness may involve a
deficient secretion of digestive fluids, lack
of force in the nerves that control diges-
ton, many things, but back of them all
is thin blood. "Without rich, red blood
good digestion is impossible" is an estab-
lished fact in medicine. You can enrich
YOUR blood with DR.. Williams Pink Pills
and begin at once to restore your dis
ordered digestion until you can eat what
you want, within reason, and enjoy it.
These pills have direct action on the
nerves also and so are an ideal digestive
tonic.
Your own druggist sells DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. A diet book, "What to Eat
and How to Eat" that will help you
solve your stomach problems will be sent
