LORIMER LAWYER OBJECTS
Iue of Veracity Arises From Al
Irged flrport or Conversation

Shown hj t Kiperts.
W A4s I I NOTuX. Feb. . one day
efforts to determine by epert stenog
raphers the genuineness of J. K. Sheri
dan's stenographic report of Charles
Mci.owan. alleged "perjury admissions'
at Toronto last January, made the
Senate Lorlmer committee so weary
today that tt Toted to try another
method.
It was resolved to put young Sheridan
to a "practical test In the committee
rooms, staged after the fashion of the
hotel rooms at Toronto, where Mc
Gowan was alleged to have talked Into
a phonographic apparatus. An ex
ecutive session was held tonight to
determine the nature of this test.
After the conclusion of the testi
mony of Milton W. Blumenberg. II. H.
pechln. a commercial stenog-rspher. and
Alllster Cochrane, one of the stenog
raphers of the House of Representa
tives and an employe of Blumenbers; In
reporting the Lorlmer committee, testi
fied as experts. Both said In answer
to hypothetical questions that they
considered :t Impossible to make such
a record under the conditions under
which Sheridan worked.
Doabt Cast Aeearary.
In cross-examination. Pechln said
that In order to be absolutely certain
It would be necessary for him to know
all the facts surrounding- Sheridan's
recording of the notes, but without
such knowledge he was of the opinion
that the notes were not a correct re
port. Cochrane, like Pechln. spoke of the
"curious uniformity" of the notes, no
more speed being manifested in a para
graph of words, where no breaks
were Indicated, and which botb thought
must have been ottered at a fast rate
because of the subject matter, than
was shown In the Isolated sentences of
the report. Senator Kern suggested
Sheridan had Indicated a break after
the paragraph, but Cochrane testified
that he belleveS It would have been a
mental Impossibility for the stenog
rapher to have carried the paragraph
In his mind and written It down at
leisure during the break.
Teat ef Stbertdaa Fresiese.
It was in the course of Pechln's
testimony that Senator Gamble sug
gested a test of Sheridan as a more
expedlentlous way of settling the con
troversy then by expert testimony. At-
torney Hanecy. for Senator Lorimer.
s ild he had summoned 11 expert stenog
raphers KUfc-sjested by Mr. Blumenberg.
and Senator Kern announced he would
want some stenographers that Mr.
Blumenberg has not suggested.
.Attorney llanecy objected to being
deprived entirely of the privilege of
presenting expert testimony, on the
theory that any teat would at the best
merely demonstrate Sheridan's capacity
to take notes and not the Issue as to
whether he took the particular notea
on a particular occasion.
Blumenberg. who caused a scene In
the committee rooms Saturday, declared
today that it was necessary for him to
know the conditions nnder which the
notes were taken In order to form an
opinion as to their genuineness.
"tToulil not Sheridan have taken down
sl.ort. explosive remarks In longhand?"
ake.l ll.-aley
-,. but his report would be of no
value."
Hlasseabers; Already ('aavlaced.
Senator Ia asked why Blumenberg
wanted more time to examine- the notes
when he had said on Saturday night
he was convinced they were "manufac
tured." The witness wanted time to
find reasons to convince a layman. The
general appearance of the notes had
been enough to convince him. aa an
expert, he said.
Mumenberg declared he was not suf
term on Saturday night from a ner
vous breakdown. He denied be had
been overworked. Some of his friends
had sugaested this might have been
the cause of bis sensational outburst
before the committee. lie denied he
waa Intoxicated. Repeatedly he refused
to say he regretted his action.
As Blumenberg was finishing his ex
amination. Chairman Dillingham again
a.-ked him If he meant any disrespect
to any roewnbeirs of the committee on
Saturday night. He denied It.

Jlelatlre of Hers.
ST. LOUIS. Feb. . The third trial
of the Klmmell case involving an
Identity mystery began In the United
nlfying g!as the Jurors could not have
made a critical examination of the ex
hibit. , A
Some of the Jurors are reported to
have said that the clinching point made
by the state was the charge that the
Olmstead report was fabricated, con
vincing them that Mrs. Haxxard was
guilty and was endeavoring to manu
facture evidence.
The point upon which a new trial la
asked Is one of the many technicalities
raised by the defense during the course
of the trial, which is aald to have had
no exact parallel by which the court
could be guided in making rulings.
ln.OOO Bonds to B- Presented.
Other allegations or misconduct of
the trial are that the Jury waa al
lowed books and papers not allowed by
the court. Prosecutor Stevenson was
advised tonight that bonds of $10,000
for the release of Mrs. Haxzard have
been obtained and will be presented In
court tomorrow.
That "Dr." Haxxard sold teeth from
Miss Williamson's mouth for a few dol
lars after death had come to relieve
the tortures of slow starvation, which
the Jury declared Sunday night had
been Inflicted on the helpless English
girl by the starvation specialist, la
stated by Stevenson, who says he was
unable to Introduce It In evidence on
account of the ruling of Judge Yakey.
This, the prosecutor alleges, was the
climax to a long series of outrages per
petrated upon Miss Williamson.

Million Busliels Involved.
DULUTH. Minn., Feb. S. The conges
tion of-traffic on the Canadian rail
roads, which resulted in sweeping re
duction of freight rates to permit
Canadian grain to come to the Ameri
can head of the lakes for elevating and
storage, ia more serious than at any
time since its inception, according to
news received here from Port Arthur,
Ont.

There is no place to store grain when
It arrives at Fort William. Thirty mil

number of empty cars that are deliv
ered daily to elevators at the Canadian
head of the lakes, on the theory that
it is useless to load cars when they
cannot be hauled to destinations.
