DAVEY ACCUSED
OF TAKING SPLIT
IN OHIO "GRAFT"
Witness Charges He
Shared Truck Bonus

CLEVELAND, Feb. 18.-Gov.
Martin L. Davey of Ohio, today
was accused of splitting commits
sions on the sale Of motor trucks
TO the State.
The charges were made by Lee
Bradley, who described himself
as a contact man" for the COVER
nor, before a special committee OF
the State senate, which has been
investigating charges Of legal
graft" for the past two months.
The agreement on splitting the
commissions was made back in
1884, Bradley told the committee.
CITIES CAMPAIGN FUND
The commissions were to range
between 10 and 80 per cent, Brad
ley told the investigating COM
n1ittee.
He said their agreement followed
o meeting in a New York hotel.
Davey, Bradley and L. L. Tramper,
who Bradley said was represent
ative of General Motors, allegedly
attended the meeting. Tramper,
at the meeting, agreed to have
General Motors contribute $25,000
to Davey's campaign fund. Brad
ley added.
Davey, in return, Bradley said,
was to "take care" of General
Motors in the event of his election.
Bradley declared his records
showed that the truck sales in
1885 amounted to between $780,
600 and 100000.
CHARGES DENIED
He told the committee that he
had never received any of the
promised commissions. Later,
however, Bradley said, Davey gave
him a check for $500 and a new
automobile to soothe his feelings.
At Columbus, Governor Davey
branded Bradley's testimony as
"slanderous falsehood." He said
that if Bradley had dared to make
such charges outside the protec-
ton of the investigating commit
tee, he would go to jail for crimi-
nal libel.
CLEVELAND, Feb. 18 (C.T.
P.SD.-At New York headquarters
Of General Motors Corporation, it
was stated that General Motors
made no contribution to Governor
Martin L. Davey's campaign fund,
and that the story told by Lee
Bradley is "silly and ridiculous"

Miss Hopkins as the wise

upon sas an ideal selection for
the role of the independent and
defiant artist.
