HARRISBURG SCANDAL
GETS AIRING IN COURT
Alleged Confession Of Contractor
Sanderson, Furnisher Of State
Capitol Building, Admitted as

WEST CHESTER. Pa. May 22.-
An alleged confession by John H.
sanderson of Philadelphia. contractor
for furnishing the new state capitol
building at Harrisburg. about which
there was a scandal some years ago,
has been admitted in court here in
the trial of the suit of State Senator
T. Larry Eyre against William H.
Berry, former state treasurer and
now collector of customs at Phila-
delphia. Eyre, who is a republican
Berry, a democrat. for $4,000 dam
ages for slanderous statements made
Oh the stump in 1916. when Eyre was
a candidate for the senate.
In the alleged confession sanderson
stated that Eyre and his friends re-
ceived more than 100000 of state
funds appropriated for the furnishing
of the capitol. 1t has been whis-
pered for years that such a confess
sion was in existence. but it had
never before been made public.
United States Senator Penrose Ii
also involved in the alleged confess
sion. sanderson having stated that
he personally gave Penrose checks
for $4,000 and that another contrac-
tor had given Penrose $4,000. After
the publication of the supposed con-
fession today, Senator Penrose said
the check charge was an old story:
that it came ut at the trial Of the
men charged with cheating the state
in connection with the capitol work,
and that he had explained that the
checks had been indorsed by him and
turned over to the republican state
committee as they were campaign
contributions.
Senator Eyre went on the stand and
denied the confession of Sanderson as
far as it referred to him.
At the time capitol contracts were
awarded Eyre was in Office, but he
soon went out and was succeeded by
James NJ. Shumaker. Sanderson's al
legged confession says Shumaker did
not receive any Of the capitol money.
1t also clears Gov. Pennypacker. who
approved the plans and contracts for
the capitol. saying he was as inno-
cent as a newborn babe"
The architect and the two state
officials served penal terms for their
connection with the affair and 9TH
ers died before being brought to trial
1t is expected the trial will be con-
cluded today.
