patriotcally trying to remedy conditions in the
economic and political life of the nation When
Mr.. Sorensen and Mr. Evans came to me and
greeted me, I felt too cheap for words. I decided
then and there to tell these men, who had proved
themselves my friends during my work in Nebraska,
the plot against the League and of those behind it,
Pursuing this plan, 1 went to Evans on the fol-
lowing day and asked him to come to my rooms in
the hotel and requested him to bring Mr.. Sorensen
with him. Later in the day met Mr.. Sorensen, and
I decided that, instead of waiting would unburden
myself to him at once ..-@
Sorensen took me into room in the legal offices
of the League. There l told him that was a

to McGrath and told him
what had actually hap

had told Sorensen.
McGrath did not COM

said that he would take
up with the manager of

next day I was instructed

I told me that Ryner had
already spent several
thousands of dollars in

Corliss said that only
nine shares, of stock had
been sold in Minnesota

and that these nine
shares had been taken by
friends of Corliss himself.
He wanted me to learn
whether Ryner was actu-

he was drinking. 1 had
not progressed very; far
with this operation, how
ever, before 1 was called
suddenly back to Omaha
with instructions to re-
port to McGrath, general

McGrath told me that
the Faribault operation
would be called off tenn

me to proceed to St.

would take place on De-
