Contending that It had not been conclusively shown that even ona corruptly Influenced vote had been cast for Lorlmer In the Illi nois Legislature. Fletcher of Florida, a member of the committee on privileges and elections, today addressed the Sen ate In support of the committee's report exonerating Lorlmer. Mr. Fletcher would not admit that "four members of the Legislature had testified to receiving money as a con- ' slderatlon for their votes." as stated In tha report of tho committee. "I called attention to that clause and said that I did not so understand the testimony." he said, "but stated that, while they testified to receiving money, each of them said he voted for Mr. Lor lmer without consideration of any kind being paid or promised. I understood tha chairman and the committee to agree with me, and the chairman to state that he would have the wording corrected. I find that language, carried Into tha report and 1 think It la a mis take." Alt the trouble waa traced to White by the Florida Senator, who denounced that member of tha Illinois legislature aa "the limit" In many "disreputable directions." Lorlmer Stoutly Defended. Lorlmer waa stoutly defended againat tha chnrga of knowledge of any bribery that may have been practiced, aa he was ajr.lnst all nlottine with Itrowno or oytiera In connection with tha Sena tor II o. Calling attention to the fact that Lor. Imor did not coma Into the contest un til after the Senatorial deadlock In tha Illlnoia Legislature had continued four months, the speaker contended that Lor lmer had been the natural candidate. Dwelling at length upon the unsavory character of soma of tha transnctlnna of the Illnola Legtalature. the Florida Senator urged that no ona was Justified In concluding that on this account -xr- Imer "was a beneficiary of this boodle. Wa must remember, ba said, "that tha Legislature had mora on Its hnnda than the election of a Senator. There were furniture contracts, probably some public utllltlea proposals, may be some prohibition proposition." Reviewing the testimony, Fletcher said It had not been unimpeachably shown that Lortmer's election had been Influenced by corruption. Some Ijorlmer Votes Clean. If It be argued that when It was ahown that tloltslaw had money, that IVY. I.. i . K . It waa somebody's money and the burden shifted to Mr. Lorlmer to show by hli testimony or otherwise that It was not his money, I submit that tha testimony of Me.urs. Alschuler. Shurtleff. Clark and Shepard all clean, all friends of Irowne. all voting for Mr. Lorlmer. say ing nothing of the testimony of Rrowno, Rrcderlek and Wilson would fully meet that burden. Even Link. Beckemeycr and Holtslaw swear they had detennned to vote for Mr. Lorlmer before any money wna promised or paid them, and Link swears It was not 'Lorlmer money that was paid him. Mr. Fletcher bad a word to say In de fens of Illinois: We need not be taken off our feet by exciting predictions of dancers to tha Republic. Illinois will go forward In line with her glorious past, no matter what decision la reached In this case. The Senate Is anchored hers and In no perlL m White. Beckemerer. Holtslaw and Link are not dangerous persona. They are slraj 111 take car of them and of her local conditions." election of Senators by direct vote. Horah, of Idaho, today notified the Sen ata that after next Friday he would try to keep the measure constantly to the front. The resolution bad been held to permit Senator Root to be heard and when he decided to speak next Friday morning. Mr. Borah lost no time in giv ing notice that after that date ha would press the bill early and late. He prob ably will not ask to have a date fixed for a vote because of the undying; op position of his colleague. Senator Hey burn, but will bold the measure In such condition as to permit a vote whenever there Is no one prepared to speak. The friends of the measure are not sanguine of obtaining; the two-thirds vote necessary to adopt the resolution. They are proceeding; on the theory that even a majority vote will . give the cause great Impetus. T. R. IS FOR PROGRESS HE WANTS IT IN CHRISTIANITY AS WELL AS POLITICS.

Jones Speak Airalnst Lorlmer. Jones of Washing-ton contended that I.orlmers election was tainted with bribery. He held that seven rotes were corrupted by the giving or taking of bribes, and that their deduction from I x rimer's vote left him one short of a majority. He argued that in reality all the JO Democratic votes delivered by Lee O Nell Browne were tainted. Jones contended that the jackpot rund wm used to elect Lorlmer. th main purpose being not so much to elect Lorlmer as to defeat Hopkins. He said: "It waa not necessary to promise money: It was not necessary to ask why the money waa paid. ThM was a part of the system. "So under this system. It Is doubtful If any one will be indicted for bribery in connection with legislation, and if so, he could ssy he had not been prom ised a dollar to support or oppose such legislation, and that he bad not re ceived any money In consideration of Sis vote there. Under such conditions what would naturally happen The men who were looking for money for an act of their legislative duties would flock sround the jackpot fund and around those handling It. like vultures around a dead carcass. When they came to the fountain head there was complete understanding as to their course of procedure without anything being eaid. All they had to do waa to do as they were asked, and then reward would come In due time. rnrpo Was to Defeat Hopkins. "If there were Interests outside the Legislature that habitually contributed to a jackpot fund to control legisla tion. It takes no stretch of the imag ination to believe that there were out side Interests that would be perfectly willing to contribute to the jackpot rund for tne purpose or defeating Mr. Hopkins. Money wa used to defeat him. and this money waa put in the hands of the same person who handled the jarkpot fund. If it was not put Into the fund Itself. The money waa not to elect Lorlmer: It was Riven to defeat Hopkins. It could be used to elect any one they could elect- so it was not Hop kins. This Is the reason why Browne was so insistent that his men should not vote for I-orlmer until he was sure that there were enough vote 'to put it over. vere Cold or a Touch of Grippe.
