coNidential tidings from Mr.. Hughes
Colonel Roosevelt would say nothing
about their talk beyond acknowledging
that Senator Lodge had called, but Mr..
Lodge admitted, "Of course we dis
cussed Mr.. Hughes"
In answer to the question as to
whether or not the colonel would sup
port Mr.. Hughes he said with smile:
That is my impression"
Even if Mr.. Hughes doesn't come
out more explicitly for Apprehension? -
Il thought that Mr.. Hughes first

PHONE GIRLS TESTIFY.
Weld New Link in States Chain In
Orpet Case.

Chicago, June 20.-Iwo telephone
operators who listened in" one win
ter night in Lake Forest when along
the electric thread youth spoke thru
the darkness in enigmas and girl an
swered in riddles, gave evidence in
Waukegan yesterday that brought the
Orpet murder trial to its most sensa-
tional and dramatic climax.
BY these two witnesses the state
sought to prove these startling facts:
That Will Orpet planned to murder
Marian Lambert on the night of Feb.
ness.
That he brought cyanide Of POTASH
um from Madison and purposed to give
it to her in the suise Of medicine the
night he arrived.
That the fatal meeting In Helms
woods next day was an afterthought
adopted as a last desperate resource to
rid himself of the girl who stood in the
way of his marriage to Celestia Youk-
er.
Last Saturday morning a woman who
refused to give her name telephoned
Chief of Police Walter MCGUIRE of Lake
Forest and told him Of the two switch
board operators in the Lake Forest tel
ephone exchange who had overheard a
conversatio between Will Orpet and
Marian Lambert. Chief Mcclure imme-
diately got into communication with
States Attorney Dady.
That night the states attorney, the
police chief, and Special Prosecutor
Ralph Joslyn drove in an automobile to
Darlington. There they found one of
the telephone girls. When she worked
on the Lake Forest switchboard she
was Miss Edith Lihdke. She Is now
Mrs. Kennedy, q bride Of three .:o.:sshs.
Then the party drove to Lake Forest
and at / o'clock in the morning reused
from 20 tiia utiler telephone girl, Miss
Mary Dunn, who Is still employed at
the exchange. This midnight ride gave
the state the most important evidence
1t so far has developed.
