COMMITTEE TOLD
OFFOUNTA|NNEED
Witnesses Urge Furnishing
of Site by U. S. for Work
of MaCM0nnieS.

The House Library Committee yes
terday heard four witnesses in sup
port of the bill sponsored by Repre-
sentative Sabath Democrat, of Illirois,
authorizing the erection of the Mac
Monnies Columbia Fountain on ute
to be furnished by the Government in
Washington.
The witnesses were Humphrey S.
Shaw. secretary Of Representative
SABBATH. who was detained in Chicago;
James Salter< Hansan of New York
and Paris, personal friend of the
late sculptor MacMonnies; Francies
P. Sullivan, who brought a report
from the National Architects Confer
ence in New Orleans approving this
measure, and Clyde Tavenner, who
made a personal appeal to the COM
mittee, having seen the famous foun-
tain.
Several committee members argued
the advlsability of accepting gifts of
statues and memorials to the Capital
City. some commenting that the
parks would soon be cluttered up with
great hunks of marble" The general
feeling was that there should be some
showing as to whether the proposed
gift would be suitable for the proposed
site, harmonizing with other Federal
structures.
IF this fountain is so beautiful and
desirable as a municipal attraction,
why doesn't the city of Chicago keep
lt?' one committee member asked.
Delay Is Likely
Action on the bill, which will be con-
sldered in executive session next week,
probably will be indefinitely postponed
Representative Sabath's bill provides
that there shall be no expense to the
Federal Government. the only stipula-
ton being that a site be allocated on
land already owned by the Govern
ment.
The SABBATH bill provides that the
location of the Columbia Fountain and
the plan for development of the site
be submitted to the Fine Arts Com
mission for advisory assistance and
| that the construction be under the
director Of public buildings and public
| parks. 1t asks that general AUTHORITY
be granted to any association organ
lied within two years to erect the
| fountain. Representative SABBATH, how
ever, has been assured, he says, that
! the organization will be announced
| and funds promptly assured Just as
soon as the legislative authority is
granted by Congress.
Models in Good Condition.
Mrs. MasMonnies. widow of the
famous sculptor has reported that the
models for the fountain. now stored
| in Paris. are in excellent condition.
and will be shipped to the United
| States soon and placed at the disposal
of the organization which raises the
| funds for erection of the fountain in
the Capital
| The Columbia Fountain is recorded
as the outstanding artistic feature of
the Worlds Columbian Exposition in
Chicago.

quite candid with the Government.
Federal investigators located in De-

Of books, one rejecting the state

Unfortunately the Government got
hold Of the real books
The Federal agents-who will pry
into things-also summoned q stenog-
rapher who swore she had taken
statements from defendants when
Lias was preparing for his trial two
years before. In one statement
sworn before a notary-Theodore said
he had visited Lias in the Atlanta
Penitentiary in February Of 1882 and
that Lias had advised him to file
a 1891 return for the numbers and
to talk the matter over with Seibert.
LiaS was in stir" for 4 prohibition

Two Sets of Books.
Seibert, according to this statement,
told Theodore Russell it was not
necessary to disclose all the income
the little group was netting from the
sl,000,000 a year their business was
crossing. Theodore was to cut the
figure substantially. He slashed it, he
admitted. to about one-sixth Of what
the taxable income actually was. And
he contrived the phony sets of books,
never dreaming that old "whiskers"
would get hold of the real ones.
1t appeared that Theodore had
conf1ded in altogether too many
people. He decided to make amends
by taking the rap. At the close OF
the Governments case he changed
his plea to guilty. He is serving 1s
months in the Federal prison at Lewis
burg.
The jury acquitted seibert and Old
ham.

George H. Seibert. Wheeling restau-
ranteur. and Mike Russell took the
stand and declared it was not, as the
Government had contended, LAS
sole business but a three-way partner
ship, with Lias, Seibert and Russell
each owning third This gummed
up the income tax case against Lias,
and he could not be tried again be-
cause he had been placed in jeopardy.
Agreed to Testify.
But Big Bill" agreed to testify for
the Government at the later trial OF
others. He was willing to tell at least
part of what he knew
The Federal grand jury indicted
Mike Russell. his cousin, Theodore
Russell: Seibert and George w. Old
ham, member of the West Virginia
Legislature and tax accountant.
The trial was set for August 30,
1887. Several weeks before that date
Mike Russell, finding the situation
disquieting. remarked to friend
somewhat as follows:
why should be the goat? I'm
going to tell what I know and get
out Of this mess if I can. I'll give
EN- names, too"
Five days before the trial, at $40
am, Mike returned to his home in
Wheeling. His wife heard him start
ing in and went to the window. She
saw some shadowy figures leap on
him. There was brief struggle, then
burst of gunflre. The figures Jumped
into a car and drove away.
Mike Russell Killed.
Mike Russell was dead. beaten un-
mercifully and shot IL times.
There had been a lot of unfortunate
talk about how the numbers racket
which ran so openly in Wheeling
and other towns in West Virginia,
Pennsylvania and Ohio-had been
protected from intrusions OF the law.
Federal agents, in ferreting out the
books and accounts of the mob, had
found so much evidence along this
embarrassing line that it couldn't be
ignored when Theodore Russell, Sci
bert and Oldham were tried.
Seibert admitted on the stand that
the item police protection" on the
books meant monthly sums paid to

certain persons" He declined to
name these persons.
But it was disclosed, in the course
OF the trial. that the mob's pay roll
allegedly included not only police
men. but Mayors of several cities,
sherif1s. constables and other officials.
No names were mentioned. Mike
Russell apparently had intended to be
more fortnight. but certain indivi-
duals - to date unidentified - had
thought it best for him not to testify.
Bill Lias told all-with reservations.
Competition Died Quickly.
There was some intimation that
the business not only was protected
from legal proceedings, but from rival
entrepreneurs. It was said that now
and then some competitor would start
up somewhere in the tri-State area
reserved for the Lias monopoly, but
every time this rival would be raided.
Somehow, although he did business
IN the same way the Wheeling mob
did, he always violated the lottery
law.
The business, the Government
brought out. was started in 1890,
modestly. with Seibert and Lias each
putting in $4,000 and Mike Russell a
smaller sum. Theodore Russell had
