Baker was also at the Union League Club, he said. the day Clarence 8S. Funk, general manager of the Internationa! Harvester Co., asked Hines. according to Hines, for the privilege of contrib- uting to the Lorimer campaign fund. Funk declared Hines had asked him to contribute $10,000 toward a $100.000 fund. Today Baker gave an account of the meeting of Hines and Funk, just as Hines had done. The part of the conversation between Hiines and Funk which Hines said took place near Baker, was repeated by the witness as Hines told it to the commit- tee. He was sure Funk had asked to be introduced to Lorimer as Hines testi- fied, but which Funk denied On cross-examination Baker said first recalled the telephone conversation in Cook’s room after the publication of the so-called White confession April 30, 1910. “What made you asked Senator Kern. Says Cook Made Threats. ‘Cook was getting off the string making threats about what he would do to Mr. Hines.”’ Baker said he had neither read Hines’ testimony about the conversations nor heard him give his version of them. “Don’t you regard it as remarkable, then, for you to make precisely the same report of those conversations that Hines does?” inquired Senator Kern. “No, sir, I do not.” Cook testified that Hines said = he would be down on the next train, pre- pared to furnish all the money need- ed. Hines denied this remark. So did Baker today. Hettler told the committee that on the day of Lorimer’s election, about 2:20 p. m., he was standing in front of the cigar stand in the Union League Club making some purchases prior to taking the 3:03 train for Toronto, where he was going on business. He was very positive that Hines approached him and touched him on his left shoulder, and asked him whether he would like to know the name of his new Senator, and then said: “Tt is Lorimer. Lorimer has been elected. I have just been talking. with him. I elected him. I did it myself, personally.” Had Talked With Lorimer, The witness said his recollection was distinct that Hines cid not say anything about having been talking on the tele- phone with the Associated Press, but with “him,” meaning Senator Lorimer, since his was the only name mentioned. Hettler also was positive that C. F, Wiehe, brother-in-law of Hines = and secretary of the Edward Hines Lumber Co., whom he said he Knows very well, was not with Hines on that occasion. Hines, while on the stand two weeks ago, declared he had not touched Het. tler on the shoulder, that he had not said he elected Lorimer, personally or otherwise, and declared Wiehe was with him at the time. “You have made up your mind to say that about Wiehe,» have you?" de- manded William J.-Hynes, associate counsel for Senator Lorimer and counse! for Mr. Hines. “TI have made up my mind to tell only the truth,” retorted the witness, with the ghost of a smile. “Oh, IT have not sak] dudge Hynes. “Thank you,’ said Broader smile. ‘after the election he recall it then?’’ and raised that issue,” the witness with of Senator Lori- Ane sega om

R. PERRY SPENUER WILL GT PLAT Governor Announces Choice of Democrat After Conference at Jefferson City.

JEFFERSON CITY, July 18.—Richard Perry Spencer and Joseph A. wamison will be appointed the Democratic mem- Louis Board of Election This Had- conference bers of the St. Commissioners, under the new law. announcement was made by Gov. ley this afternoon, after a with Spencer. The Governor has intended from the outset to reappoint Jamison. who is the Democratic member of the _ present board, but the second commissionership, created by an act of the last Legisla- ture, was in doubt for several weeks. Tnomas L. Anderson-and John T. Fitzsimmons were Spencer’s rivals for the appointment. All three were in- dorsed by the Democratic State Commit- tee at its recent meeting here. The Governor also stated today that, as he has previously announced, he would reappoint Henry Kortjohn Jr. and Henry W. Blodgett as the Repub- lican members of the board. Spencer’s victory over Anderson is said to have been due to a speech made by the latter at Sikeston in the cam- paign of 1908, in which Hadley, then Attorney-General and Republican nomi- nee for Governor, was attacked. An- derson’s version of this speech differs from others which have been heard by the Governor, but there seems to be no doubt that this incident made an im- pression on the Governor which was un- favorable to Anderson. Spencer is a native Mis- sourian, 37 years old. He was. born in Koone County, and was educated at Windsor and in Central College at Fay eite. He taught school in Marshal! und Moberly, and while .teaching stud- led law and was admitted to the bar. Fle entered the practice of law in St Louis in 1903, having been married two years before to Miss Jeanette Leonard c: Fayette. They have one daughter. Spencer ran for the Legislature three years ago. He lives at 412 Union bou- levard.— Anderson, his opponent for the appointment, was his fellow student at Central-College, and was City Attorney of St. Louis under Mayor Wells. R. Perry
