litigation of former Senator Joseph Bailey of Texas. Mir. Heney sought to show that MT. Bailey was retained, for a fee of s5,000, pro-rated among the packers on basis of their business in Texas, because of his influence with the attorney general of Texas.
 Does not Recollect Act
 MT. Borders did not recolfct that MT. Bailey had been retained at all. When Heney read a letter by Henry Veeder, counsel for Swift & Co.,, dis cussing the share each packer should pay for the Bailey fee, and remarked that "Mr. Borders has already paid on this basis" MT. Borders said he could check up on it.
 MT. Heney repeatedly tried to get the witness to admit knowledge of efforts to defeat the Borland resolution.
 Do you remember of Morris & Co. paying out $1,O00 in an attempt to get Congressman Taggart of Kansas to vote against the resolution?" asked Heney.
 Witness did not, nor did he know of any other efforts along that line.
 Senatorial Aspirations A letter from Henry Veeder to F. A. Hunter, manager of Swift & Co., at East St. Louis H., on August 20, 1914, referred to the senatorial aspirations of Lawrence Stringer. The letter read: MT. Scott Matthews of the dairy and food commission, called upon me this morning and asked that Swift Ss Go. at East St. Louis give their moral.support to the candidacy of MT. Stringer for United States senator and I assured him that Swift x Co. would be glad to give their moral support as he re- l quested. The attorneys for Morris & 1 Go. and Armour x Co. have also, as understand, agreed to give moral sup port of their companies to MT. String er."
 On the same day Mir. Veeder. re- ported that Matthews interview to Ed ward F. Swift and said that evidently the commission did not intend to ad- minister the food and dairy laws op- pressively but fairly.
 Bad Eggs are Found l He (Matthews) then added, how Lever, that the department intends to enforce the law and that they now have a case against one of the packers, he l thought Swift x Co.,, for the sale of bad eggs,' read the letter. "He intend ed to prosecute to the end. 1 think this egg case can be settled up in view of our present relations with MT. Matthews and I think it important to do so while it can be done
 In the same letter MT. Veeder eX- pressed the opinion that if Swift Ss Co. were to be in constant trouble with the
