Gegnn and Brown introduced Devaney
and Conkling to Senator Lusk, who
said he would handle the Smith bill,
which had been abandoned by Senator
Smith. because he (Lusk) wanted to do
something for the New York detec-
tives.
&c. On the afternoon of April the
Smith bill, without my change In 1t
whatever, was formally introduced by
Senator Lusk. with his name on the
BILL This bill was later reported out
within few days thereafter.
az. President Burns Of Tho Dctec-
tive Endowment Association has also
admitted that about $1,000 was spent
by that association for expenses in the
furthcrance of the passage of the bill,
and l am informed that there WAS u
great deal moro money expended than
the several sums aforestated."
Hrshtield in his letter also an
nounced he had subpoena servers out
hunting for John L. Kleist, the lobby
list, who is now said to be in Washing
ton He said tknt he would not let up
in his endeavors until he found Kleist
and the latter "told him what he did
with the fund intrusted to him by
Devaney and Conkling.''
To Continue Examinations
In his letter to Senator Meyer, Com
missioner Hirshfeld also said:
III need not tell you, member Of
the Bar, that the use of funds in the
manner indicated to promote, develop,
or influence legislation, is contrary to
the criminal statutes of this state and
subject to action Of the District At
torneys of Albany and New York
counties.
''My investigation into this slush
fund in connection with this detective
bill has not been concluded, and I ex-
pect to examine many more witnesses,
who, l believe, may have information
which will tend to shed light on this
subject
Referring further to his reason for
inviting Senator Lusk to appear before
him as witness Hirshfield said:
cit is unfortunate that the testimony
thus far taken and the facts and cir
cumstances developed, seem to call for
an explanation of Senator Lusks &C
tivities in furthering his detective bill
and l hasten to assure you that should
the Senator decide to submit himself
as witness for examination, every
courtesy will be extended to him by
me-"
Important revelations are promised
for this week in the investigation.

attacked and killed yesterday afternoon
by John r. Bergendahl, 35. in the lat
ter's sign painting shop at 30 Myrtle

screams of Mrs Bergendahl and ran in
side. They said they saw Dubey lying
on the floor and Bergendahl. who was

tives and said:
II did it, did II with my feet That's
the devil there. That's where he be-
longs He's made trouble for me-.

Long Island College Hospital. where he
died a short time later of a compound
fracture OF the nose and a fractured
skull. Bergendahl was held without
bail until May 81 by Magistrate Dodd.
Mrs. Bergcndahl said that Mr.. Dubey
had taught her husband the poster paint
ing business and that, until yesterday.

actly what kind of skirts
are in this Sale. They are

POCKETS in nearly every
model are simple in design
and will be appreciated by
young women of fastidious
taste.
The prices will speak for
themselves when you see
