The witness declared Mume also had said that William J. Burns, chief of the department's bureau of in- vestigation, was “standing in” on the deal. Holdridge also sald Muma told hiro, that the attorney general safd to him: “If you put this across you ought to get a big cut, not less than fifty per cent.” The witness was asked what he knew about any arrangement where- by the pictures were to be exhibited in spite of the law prohibiting their transportation in interstate com- merce. F.C. Quimby, producer, has testified that they were shown in 22 states under an “understanding”? that ther would be no interference by the justice department, and Gas- ton B.

The committee made plans to fol- jow up its investigation into gun running on the Mexican border and into stories of American financial aid to Mexican revolutionists. A subpoena was announced for Casey Adams, former Mayor of Calexico, California, who w said to have knowledge of Cantu revolutionary affairs in Lower California. The Bostal Telegraph company de. livered to the committee telegrams of Gus T. Jones, a department of justice agent at San Antonio, Texas, from A. B. Fall, EB. L. Doheny, and larry F. Sinclair, from December 1, 1923 to March 7, 1924. Holdridge told of investigating ex- hibitions of the fight pictures and of an “apparent conspiracy” to violate the law in showing them. The de- partment of justice issued a circular letter in November 1921 he said, cal- ling attention to the alleged con- spiracy, The department circular, by William J. Burns. ordered agents to secure evidence, if possible, which would result in convictions. Before the circular was sent out. Holdridge said, the films had been shown in Albany and other New York cities. The witness said his connection special agent for the department of justice was between October 1920 and 1922, during which time he was stationed at Albany. He went to New York, however, Holdridge said, and he and another agent, Thomas Spellacy, while in- vestigating a lottery case, called on Jap Muma, Cincinnati Inquirer cor- respondent at Spellacy's suggestion.

Cogniznace also is taken of recent developments in the Washington in- vestigations. “We pledge recovery of the navy’s oil reserve and all other parts of the Public domain which have been fraudulently or illegally leased or otherwise wrongfully transferred ‘to the control of private interests; vigorous prosecution of all. public officials, private citizens and cor- porations that participated in these transactions; complete revision of the water power act, and all other legislation relating to the public do- main.

Muma produced two letters signed by the attorney general during his conversation, the witness said. Muma “flashed” them but did not let him read them.

Sennett of the law WASHINGTON, March 17.—The name of Attorney General Daugherty was directly linked with the Dempsey- Carpentier fight films deal in $enate’s investigating committee. Gerald O.

I took him to a quiet Place and told him to tell all about it. Holdridge said Muma told him that on July 5, 1921, he (Mfuma) brought films here and went to the home of Edward B. McLean, the publisher, The pictures were exhibited at McLean's house, the witness sald, and Postmaster General New, and various cabinet officers and Ambas- sadors were present. Mr. Daugherty, Mr. New and George Christian, President Hard- ing’s secretary, discussed with Muma the exhibition of the films, the witness said Muma told him. Muma sald Mr Daugherty told him, according to the witness, that the law prohibited only transporta- tion of the films, and suggested to Muma that he take up the matter with A. R. Urion, a lawyer here. Muma safd he had “reached an understanding” with Urion, Hold- ridge stated. He added that Muma told him “we went to it.” There was to be a “goat” in each state to be fined, Muma told him, the witness added, and there was to be an effort to “get a line” on the attitude of federal judges. Muma told him that either Judge Landis of Illinois or Judge Anderson of Indiana, had such a hostile at- titude that the matter was dropped, Hol ge said, adding that he be- Ueved the reference was to Judge Anderson. Muma said Quimby became alar- med after talks with Spellacy and Ralph Navarro, department agents, and went to Washington to see Mc- Lean, Holdridge testified. Muma said he told McLean that he (Muma) was “headed for the Atlanta peniten- tary,” the witness quoted Muma as saying. Then, he said Muma told him Mc- Lean “got in touch with Mr. Daugh- erty. Describing the exhibition at Mc- Lean‘s house, the witness said: “Acting on agreements previously made on or about July 4, 1921, Muma left New York for Washington.” ‘What arrangement?” Asked Senator Wheeler. ‘He passed over that casually.” Holdridge then said Muma told him of the private showing here, at- tended by the president and mem- bers of the cabinet. “Following the exhibition of the pictures, Holdridge went on, “Muma had a talk with Attorney General Daugherty and the presi- dent.” Secretary Christian, secretary Hughes and Mr. New joined them. The discussion became general. “He told me it seemed to be the general opinion that it was shame People could not see them" the wit- ness added. “Later Muma, talking with the at- torney general, he told me, was told that the law against the pictures was solely directed to transporta- tion. Muma said Attorney General Daugherty directed him to see Al- fred R. Urion, an attorney in Wash- ington, Muma broke out to me: ‘He’s the greatest middleman in the world.’”” “Ho sald he saw Urion and that he’ told him what to do” Holdridge resumed. “He said he had great in- fluence with both the Democratic and Republican parties and with the big newspapers." Muma then was quoted as saying there was to be a “goat” to be ar- rested In each state and pay the fine for exhibiting the pictures. Muma explained that it was “necessary to get a line on the at- titude of each federal judge” Hold- ridge went on. In one state, he said, “There was doubt as to the attitude of one judge, who might insist on jail sentences.” Spellacy was present when Muma told his story to him, Holdridge said. He added that Spellacy is in Sst. Louis. Senator Wheeler immediate- ly ordered a subpoena. Muma showed him a copy of a contract, said Holdridge, under which he, “under the name of Mar- tin, received 50 per cent of the pro- fit: The names of Rickard and Quimby also appeared as signers of the contract, the witness said. The witness was reading from a Prepared statement and Senator Jones, Republican and Senator asked how long it wns after that conversation “that ~u inde up this memoranda? ’ “I made notes as soon as I got out of the place,” Holdridge said, “and made up thta tyned account later.” Spellacy “heard all the conversa. tien” Holdridge rata “McLean got “na och with attorney genavali ‘toliridge went on, “Who cajled “3 V J Burns and Muma went to talk with Burns. “Burns said at the beginning of the interview: ‘If you are trying to intercede for Tex Itickard, it is no the witness said, “went back t * PAGE THREE use, for I am going to send him to Atlanta.’ uma was quoted then as saying Burns hafi stalked around his office and declared everybody around the department seemed to know what was happening except himself After this interview, Muma, the New York with sa e:.sier mind. “Did he tell you Burns had given him assurances of personal safety?” Senator Jones put in. “He did not say that; Just that his mind was easier.” “Was Muma ever Drosecuted,”” Senator Wheeler asked. Yot to my knowledge.” “It was just the goats who were prosecuted? “That was all.” of the lms ot to my knowledge,” ridge replied Senator Wheeler suggested they could be selzed under the law. Holdridge said Muma, after tell- ing him the story, showed him the contract under which he and the “dummy” Martin, got 50 per cent of the fight film profits. The witness said he later learned @ man named Martin was Muma’s partner. Muma showed Holdridge a state- ment of expenses in each state, the witness went on, and said there was no doubt that some money was “being held out” in these expenses. At Chicago, legal costs were $35, 000. “What did Urion try to get over to you—what was his ide: ator Wheeler asked. “He tried to impress me that he was a friend of Director Burns,” said Holdridge, “some of these people tried to give me the impres- sion Urion was a friend of Mr. Daugherty.” . “Did Urion speak about pis work for the packers?” Holdridge described a breakfast Hold- Sen. party, at which he met Muma Urion, “Colonel” Martin, and “a young lady.” “Muma showed me a check from F. C. Quimby to him for $2,000" Holdridge went on. Trion got the check, he said, but ‘Quimby was trying to hold out’ on the profits He was keeping Urion on the road at the time, hefsaid, in the efforts to get all the money, and that Urion would get him another check from Quimby that afternoon. Holdridge testified that Navarro, and thelr agent of the justice de partment, told him he had enough evidence to convict F. C. Quimby but that nothing was done. Gordon Muma, a brother of Jap, was present at one of his meetings with Holdridge, the ex-general said. Presently Holdridge found him- self at work in Newark. “Muma told me with great satis faction after his trip to Washington that Navarro, the agent who had frightened him" Holdridge went on “had been sent away on a foreign assignment." Holdridge was asked if that was tru tes, I learned Navarro had been sent to Haiti.’ “Did Navarro tell you why he was sent to Haiti?" asked Senator Wheeler, “Oh, he told me he had a soft snap down there.” “I do, “Holdridge said emphati- cally when Senator Ashurst, Demo- crat, Arizona, asked if he believed the attorney general and Burns were “‘a couple of crooks.” Holdridge said he learned that John Haas, another secretary agent who was investigating the film matter, also had been sent to Hait! The record he got from the de- partment of justice, the witness said, showed only 11 or 12 fines whereas Muma had said they had exhibited in 21 or 22 states and fines were imposed on the “Goats” there. The witness read the list of arrests. William H. Rudolph was arrested four times for transport- ing films through four states, Tex- as, Louisiana, Alabama and Georgia. “Rudolph was a pirate; Quimby had nothing to do with him” sug: gested Senator Moses, Republican, New Hampshire. ‘The committee members got into a long argument when Senator Wheeler sought to develop his in- y further, We are trying to show a con spiracy between the attorney gen- eral and Jap Muma,” Senator Wheeler said, “and these other people. That there has been conspiracy which Jap Muma, Mr. Urion, Will Orr and the attor. ney general sought to show a pic. ture over the United States in vio- lation of the law and that when the conspiracy was being shown up, the department of justice sent the agents concerned to Haiti. “Iam just wondering,” put in Senator Jones, “whether we are going to argue this case out as we go along, or at the finish.” “I thirk the observation of the Senator from Washington ts timely.’ said Chairman Brookhart and Sen- ator Wheeler agreed. In May 1922 Holdridge said, he came here and told Burns of his in vestigation of the film deal. Burns said Quimby was a fine fellow, said Holdridge, but added that ho had told “them” to stop or he would have them all indicted. Burns did not order any arrests in the film case, the witness went Gives Wife Glycerine Mixture - A merchant whose wife had catarrh of the stomach finally gav her simple buckthorn bark, gly ine, etc., as mixed in Adlerika. 0} bottle did wonders because Adler acts on EOTH upper and lower el and 58 out all poison Help: gas on the stomach in TEN minutes.

Holdridge continued he had been “In a hard position where an agent might have to tell tae attorney gen- eral and their chief they were crooks.” “It was to test him out,” the wit- ness said, that he placed the mat- ter before Burns. “I met him at the Shoreham ho- tel in Washington,” Holdridge went on. “And told him of my results in dealing with Muma. ‘When I got to the part about Muma’s seek. ing Burns, the director interrupted me. He sald he had seen Muma who brought Quimby along. He said he told them to stop the film or they would be indicted.” e a full report, Holdridge ned to Albany, and five later was sent by Burns to Cleveland,.on the bank robbery case. Later in May, Holdridge added, Burns wanted him to meet Edward B. McLean in Burns’ office, but McLean did not appear and Hold- ridge prepared a statement and gave it to Burns.
