Witness Cook Tells of Conversation Between Hines and the Governor.

TAFT ALSO FIGURES

President Alleged to Have Dipped His Finger in the Illinois Election.

(National Newa Association) Washington, June 27. W. 11. Cook, a lumberman of Duluth, told the Lorlmr senate investigating committee today that Edward Hines told Henry Turrlab, also a lumberman of Ihiluth, In hi presence, at a hotel in Chicago In May. 1909, that he (Hines) had "fixed" Lorlmer on a $2 duty lumber schedule and that Lorlmer would stand pat. also that Ixrlmer would be the next senator from Illinois. Hines, Cook alleged, said he had a "hell of a time" in Washington working against the lumber proposition; that the southern men were 'the worst bunch he ever tackled; that bo would get them fixed up one day and they would flop the next day and bad to ,be "fixed" again; that Poutelle was picked for senator, but he flopped for ' free lumber aftr . promising to stick for the duty. Cook said Hines told htm Aldrich suggested Lorlmer; that after a conferenco with Lorlmer, ho was selected for senator. Later the witness said I lines had a telephone conversation from his (Cook's) hotel .room purporting to be with Cover nor Deneen at Springfield. Cook said the teU phono bell rang and he answered it. A voice said, "This la Springfield. Here is Cover nor Deneen." Hines took the receiver and said "hello, -hello,'; is this you, Governor, how are you this morning? I have just left Taft and Aldrich fn Washington last night. They told me tbat under no circumstances did you

want Hopkins elected. Now Lorlmer must be elected. I will be down on the morning train, prepared with all the money that may be required. Now, don't atop at anything. Lorlmer must be elected." He Knew Hines Well. Cook said he know Hines very well. He said In May, 1909, he waa in the lobby of the Grand Taciflc hotel, Chicago, with Henry Turrlsh, also a lumber man of Duluth. They met Hines there. Turrlsh asked Hines how he was getting along In Washington. "What did Hines say?" "He said he wna having a 'Hell of a time.' For instance he said, 'There is old Stephenson (meaning Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin.) After I went to work and elected him, he goes down to Washington and starts working for free lumber. What do you think of btm? and in the lumber business, too. Those southern men there are the worst bunch I ever tackled. You get them all ixed up today and tomorrow they flop. Then I have to go and fix them all up again.' " ' "Anything further said?" "Turrlsh asked Htm how they were getting along in the senatorial deadlock In Illinois" continued witnesses. Hlnes said. 'I will tell you confidentially Lorlmer will be the next senator from this state. We had Boutelle (Boutelle Is now minister to Switzerland) picked for senator. He had promised to keep $2.00 duty on lumber but when the. lumber schedule came out

Boutelle was for free lumber. I immediately took the matter up with Aldrich and It was decided that . I was to have a talk with Lorlmer. I went and saw Lorlmer. " funk's testimony was completed before Cook was called. Chairman Dillingham announced that three of the detectives whom Funk had stated were shadowing him were umler subpoenea and ready to appear before the committee. Has His Detectives. "The three detectives are here this morning," said Funk, '"and I can produce them" the witness said in response to QUtbtlDI. Asked to tell his experience with the "shadow nun'-Funk said they had been following him for weeks. He

first made the discovery when two men were found loitering about his house. Some of his neighbors thought they were looking for a chance t6 burglarize the neighborhood and had them arrested. Funk would not prosecute them and they were released. "When I came to the hotel here" said Funk "I met one of these young men, who. I had observed, had been following ino for a long time. 1 spoke to him and we bad a quiet talk. I talked to him like a father and gave him some good advise, suggesting that, he find some other business. But he came to my room and after considerable swearing' he told me e verything and asked that I should not interfere with him as I had some others who had followed me, for he 6ald if 1 did he would lose his Job. I promised him that I would not give him the

worst of it and would arrange to see that he kept track of me." "You were entering into an agreement with him?" "I was helping him earn his salary." "Has he ever been in your employ?" "No sir." "What is his name?" "Blaine, I think," answered the witness. Mr. Funk was then excused. He appeared surprised when no further questions were asked. Attorney Marble read a telegram from E. Conway, of Chlcogo, saying he would apiear before the committee If his presence was desired. Conway Is one of the men whose names were mentioned by Kohlsaat as having been given to him, ho thought, by Funk

when he told of Hlnes's suggestion about raising a $100,000 fund to pay for the election of Lorlmer.

ACID FOR" PRISONER Vial Found in Trousers Taken to Gunsaulie.

What may have been an attempt at a jail delivery for the benefit of Guy Gunsaulie of Milton, who is held at the county jail on the charge of burglary, was frustrated on Tuesday morning when Turnkey Sam Roberts examined a pair of trousers which had been brought to the bastile by his sister. Miss Gunsaulie. and took

therefrom a two ounce bottle, filled

with carbolic acid. The vial and its contents went into cuspidor in the jail corridor. No questions were asked the visitor and the authorities are not apprehensive that Gunsaulie will even make an attempt to escape, for they believe he lacks the "sand." The authorities scouted the idea that the acid was brought to the jail for any purpose other than medicinal, Gunsaulie having a serious ailment, it is said. It is believed by some, however, that if Gunsaulie had obtained the acid,' he would have watched his opportunity and threw it in the face of the jailer when the chance came to escape. After leaing the jail the Gunsaulie girl went to the Home for Friendless where her sister, Susie, aged 19, is confined on a larceny charge. She took some clothes with her to the

home, but the matron declares nothing was left which would be of aid to the girl in escaping.

ter than that allowed Dunbar and Tur

ner, the Amercan Girt and the Yankee Doodle Dutchman, a duo presenting an artistic (vaudevivlly) singing,

dancing and talking act. The act was

a big hit Monday. Mr. Dunbar's coon song, first as a negro would sing it with facely mugging and afterwards translating eame song into German, scored heavily. After several bows he was finally forced to respond to an encore, which also went big. The act has a bright line of talk which is handled properly by the right people. Their dancing is Immense. They do not cater to tho old stock which other dancers use, and their finish is original and a screnm. Al! in all they were the legitimate hit of the bill.

Laid Out. Edinburgh and Glasgow have for long been notoriously jealous of each other's iustltutious and attractions. The story goes that a Glasgow man met an Edinburgh man on the neutral ground of London. They got along very well together nntll the Glasgow man happened to mention that his native town was "a very flue dry." Then angry passions urose. "Yes," was the reply, "I dare say it is, but it's not so well laid out as Edinburgh." "I'll admit that." answered the Glasgow man, somewhat to the other's surprise. Then he added, "Glasgow is not so well laid out as Edinburgh, but It will be when It is as dead as Edinburgh." Pearson's.
