TOMORROW Fred Barnett Killed by Holdup Men in His Saloon at Dieringer, Wash. . SO. DAKOTA W . BEUEVESLOB KNEV OF BRIBERY Senator Crawford Protests on Floor Against Whitewash ed Report; Lorimer Could Not Have Been Ignorant.- iValtri Prew Lued Wlr. "-' Washington, Jan. 10. Senator Craw ford Of South Dakota bitterly attacked Senator Lorimer of Illinois today, charg ing that he must have known of the corrupt practices employed Jn electing blm. The election of State Represent ative Shurtleff as speaker of the lower house of the Illinois legislature, Craw ford said, was the "first step In the corrupt program." ' "The next move," be continued, "was to Install Lee O'Neill Browne as minor ity leader." He reviewed the testimony of the rep resentatives and senators who confessed In connection with- the bribery charges. "The strength of this testimony is not broken by Its association with Stats Rep resentatives White, Beckemeyer, Holt slaw and Link, self-confessed criminal. They are contemptible people, I readily grant, but there Is something so con sistent in the' theory that Lorimer pur chased them, and something so com pletely antagonistic in the theory, that they were honest votes .cast In Lari mer's favor, that I cannot escape the conviction that these men betrayed their honor and blackened the fair name of the state for paltry dollars and permit ted Browne and Broderick to sell them like pawns to Shurtleff and Lorimer." Crawford drscussed at length the tes timony Introduced in Lorlraer's behalf. This testimony rails miserably of us purpose," be said. "Its only tendency is further confirmation and corroborative-proof that Lorimer was unlawfully ejected. I wish I could believe that Lorimer . Himself did. not know that fraud was being committed. I regret to say lt but I personally believe that Lorimer knew enougn aDout wnat was going on In Springfield to prove to any reasonably prudent man upon Inquiry that Browne and Shurtleff were his political agents, and that he ratified their acts and accepted the results of their corrupt practices, of which be must have had knowledge. I may be wrong, but I am willing that the report of this subcommittee be adopted with out protest" . V SETASIDE$557,0D0 Money Just Be in Hand for 1 Broadway Bridge Before' the Contract Js Let: , , agent of the leading railroads of the south mot in eonferenoe here today to discuss plans for the "Back Home Move ment, recently Initiated by ths Caro lina. Cllnchfleld& Ohio railway. The plan of Immigration suggested meets with ' the enthusiastic approval of the railroads ' generallyt The prospects are that all .the Important roads in the south will join in the movement, and that the long talked of question of Im migration for the south will at last be placed on a practical working basis. . The ways and meanes commutes of the city council yesterday recommendod passage of an ordinance appropriating 3557,000 from the Broadway bridge fund. The action of the committee was taken at the request of the executive board,; wnicn nas oeiore it a numoer or bids ror the construction of the substructure of the new viaduct to span the river on Broadway street. Before a contract can be let the board must ; have the funds necessary to meet the contract The amount to be appropriated will cover the lowest bid for the job, that of the Union Bridge & Construction company of Kansas City. The committee, of which only threi members, Councllmen Baker, Rushlight and Cellars, were present, expressed Itself as favorable to the appointment of an assistant clerk of ths municipal pourt, In accordance with ths recommen dations of Judge Taswell. . The com mittee will take offtolal action In this matter , later on, when the sessions to make 'appropriations from ths general runa are neia. That the city should pay claims for salaries of its employes when employes have been incapacitated for work by rea son of injuries sustained while in the performance of duty, was the strongly expressed opinion of the counclln.en. It makes no difference whether the em ployes have obtained damages for their injuries from some other source, either, according to the views of the committee. John Zellner and John McLeod, two fire men, had made claims amounting to 1308 for salaries they thought should be paid them while they were Idle, fol lowing an accident In which they came Into .collision with a street car on their way to a f Ira The executive board re fused to allow ths claim beoause the men had received damages from the Portland Railway. Light & Power com pany. In a letter to the council com mittee yesterday afternoon, the men de clared the amount , they recctved, from the company was ' little more than enough to meet expenses for medicine and medical attention.

No amount of equivocation can conceal the fact that if the ruling of the speaker and the house was right' In the first instance, then my resolution last March was In order and the house was right in overruling the speaker when lie declared, It out of order, and the speaker was wrortg yesterday when he declared It out of order when he re vereed that action.
