POLICE SEE STRONG BOX
 OF BRIDGEPORT PRIEST
Examine Private Papers of Father Dahme in search for Clue to
 His Murderer

Bridgeport, Feb. 7.-Detectives to- day examined the contents of a safe deposit box which Father Hubert Dahme, the murderer rector of St. Joseph's church, had at a local bank in the hope that some clew might be found which would lead to unravelling of the mystery which covers the mo- tive for the crime.
 The police are now inclined to opinion that an old style gun was used by the man who shot Father Dahme as both were walking along the street on Monday evening. The bullet Is known as an outside lubrica- tor while weapons now made have in- side fabrication.
 The body of Father Dahme was re- moved from the undertaker's where he has been since Monday night and carried into St. Joseph's church to lie in state in the basement with guard of honor made up of parish- toners. The church being a new one has not completed auditorium and services are being held in the base ment which is chapel.
 Right Rev. Bishop John c. Murray will officiate at the services tomor- row. The eulogy will be by Rev Anthony kaicher Of Sacred Heart church, Hartford.

DOHENY ADMITS l MISTAKEN TESTIMONY
Sends Letter Correcting Statements Concerning
 McAdOO

Washington, Feb. 7--E. l.. Doheny, the California oil operator. has noti- fled the senate oil committee that in- stead of the s250,oo0 he recently es- timated his interests had paid Will liam c. McAdoo law firm, the amount actually paid so far is s150,0O0. in- cluding an annual fee of t25,000 to Mir. McAdoo himself.
 In a letter on the subject sent 10 Chairman Lenroot, Mir. Doheny add ed that none of the money, or any other payments ever had been given the McAdoo firm with regard to any matter relating 10 the contracts and leases which have been under inves- tigation by your committee"
 The letter follows:
 "On the first instant while testify ing before your committee as a wit ness under subpoena, was questioned the employment by companies in which am interested of persons who prior to such employment held pub lie office, and speaking entirely from memory. testified that William G. McAdoo and his New York firm. had. I thought. received a total of s250,000 as compensation for services as at- torneys and counsel, that sum being made up of the amount paid the firm Of which Mir. McAdoo is a member in New York. and as l thought and then stated. the sum Of s5o,000 as a yearly retainer to Mir. McAdoo at Los Angeles.
 By telegraphing Mir. McAdoo called my attention to tho fact that I was in error in regard 10 these amounts and have had the records looked up and now beg 10 inform you that on November 20, 1919, there was paid to the law firm Of McAdoo. Cotton & Franklin the sum of si0o.- 900. Beginning March l, 1922, Mr. has been in receipt Of an an- nuai retainer at the rate Of s25,000 per year on account of which the fol- lowing payments have been made:
 March 1, 1922. s12.50O. August 1. 1922. sI2.5Oe: February 1. 1928, s12.50o; July s1. 1928. s1s,5oo.
 Tt will thus De seen that the total paid to the firm Of which Mir. McAdoo Is a member in New York. and paid him as counsel al Los Angeles, is ti50.0e0. instead of ;25o.0 900. as er- stated by me; and that Mir. McAdoo's annual fee is s25.000 in stead of s50.000 as also enormously testified to by me.
 Permit me 10 add that as already testified by me. neither Mir. McAdoo's New York firm nor himself person ally was ever employed in any way In connection with any matter relat- Ing to the contracts and leases which have been under investigation by your

 Texas Election

Washington, Feb. LA public rep rimand of Hume Graves. deput, sergeant ot-arms of the senate. fol statements said to have been made with regard to the Mayfiela election case, was issued today by Chairman Spencer. of the senate election com mittee.
 This statement was issued by Sen ator Spencer:
 My attention has been called to the statements which a deputy ser geant at arms of the United states senate has made regarding irregular itics which he claims were found by him in connection with the ballot boxes in Texas which he was eni- pioyed solely, with companion rep- resenting the other side, to collect and forward to the United States post office for transmission to the ser- geant-at-arms.
 Any such comments are entirely out Of place and outside the duties of the deputy sergcant-at-arms in the matter.
 "I very much regret any attempt to prejudice in any way this case which must be decided entirely by the evi- dence as it is submitted in the pres ence Of both parties, before the regu- larly constituted committee of the senate, and gossip of the kind to which my attention has been called, cannot be too severely reprimandcd."
 Mir. Graves is Texas man and was appointed as a representative or George F.. E. Petty, who is contesting the election of Senator Mayfield, dem- ccrat. Texas.
 Senator Spencer said his work Of gathering the ballots in the 1922 elec- tion was about completed and that otherwise he either would be removed or severely reprimanded.
