PAID BIG SUM FOR LOBBYING Buckley Received $21,400 for One Insurance Job. MET GREAT OPPOSITION Company Objected to the Charge as Excessive, but the Legislative Agent Asserted He Had Overcome Serious Obstacles and His Claim Was Liqui- dated—Charge Against “Big Tim” Sullivan Corroborated by Witness. New York, April 1.—State Superin- tendent Hotchkiss, satisfied that noth- ing more regarding corruption in con- nection with fire insurance legislation at Albany was to be had just now from the companies’ agent, William H. Buckley, indicated an intention of harking back to early developments in the sensational raid on legislative secrets. John B. Luznger of Hartford, Conn., vice president of the Travelers’ Insur- ance company of Hartford, testified his company first employed Buckley in January, 1903. He declared Buckley was retained to get the Hability re- serve bill through solely on account of his familarity with insurance mat- ters. ‘When the bill had been passed Buckley called on the company for the payment of $21,400. The company thought the bill excessive. Mr. Lun- ger sald he came to New York and asked Buckley to reduce this bill, but Buckley refused. “What did Mr. Buckley say to Justi- 1y such a bill?” asked Mr. Hotchkiss. Overcome Great Opposition. “He sald he had been kept busy for several months, and had met much opposition, as well as having to do a great deal of explaining.” 2 “Did.he tell you that he had paid out any money to any one in connec- tion with the passage of the bill?” “He did not.” . “And so your company paild to a lawyer who had been practicing law for less than two years $21,400 for services covering less than five months?” The witness assented. George F. Seward’s charge that Ed- ward F. Brown offered, in 1892, in be- half of Senator “Big Tim” Sullivan, to have an insurance bill killed for $10,- 000 was corroborated in some details by E. E. Clapp, formerly of the Fidel ity and Casualty company, of which Mr. Seward is. president. Mr. Clapp, who was the first witness of the day, is a brother-in-law of former Warden Brown of Sing Sing prison. In friendship we see only those faults which may be prejudicial to our| friends. In love we see no faults but those by which we suffer ourselves.— De la Bruyere. CRUISER FORCED TO LEAVE German Warship Warned to Quit Li- berian Waters. Liverpool, April 1.—The German cruiser Sperber has left Cape Palmas upon the orders of the Liberian au- thorities, according to the latest ad- vices from Liberia. The German com- mander’s offer to land a detachment and quell the outbreak of the natives is said to have so incensed the Li- berians that the latter ordered the Sperber to leave Liberian waters with- in thirty-six hours or “take the conse- quences.” . The situation between the natives and the Liberian troops is said to be improving. WILL CHANGE SCOTT BILL House Committee Would Make It Ap- plicable to Cotton Deals Only. ‘Washington, April 1.—The Scott, bill prohibiting option dealing in the grain markets of the United States, but with amendments to apply spe- cifically to the cotton exchanges only, is the indicated outcome of the delib- erations of the house sub-committes to which the proposed legislation was referred. It is sald to be not impossible that the grain exchanges, which made a much more favorable showing during the hearings before the committee, ‘would be eliminated from the scope of the bill.
