\ " HORWISH BULLETIN, FRI MURPHY DIDN'T RETURN THE $25.000 Sulzer Testifies That Tammany Boss Paid Anthony Brady $25,000 to Compromise a Suit, But Campaign Contribu- tion Was Retained—Ryan’s Contribution of $10,000 Al- . %o Went to Murphy—Many Dummy Contributors in List New York, Feb. 26.—Charles F. Mur- phy, der of Tammany Hall, did not give back the $25,000 campaign contri- bution of the late Anthony N. Brady in 1912, as Murphy said he did, accord- ing to the sworn testimony today of William Sulzer, deposed governor of New York. - Sulsger, a witness today for the sec- ond time at the John Dee inquiry into political graft, testified Mufphy had told him he had turped the $25,000 over to the democratic state committee. He added that Murphy also said that he had “fixed it” so that it would be re- ported in the committee’s list of cam- paign contributions under the name of a dummy. This is the $25,000 which Sulzer says was first offered to him and which he refused to accept. Brady Threatened Exposure. Murphy, in a recent public state- ment, said that he had given the money back to Brady. He will probably be called in the near future to tell his story under oath. Sulzer conceded today that Murphy had given $25,000 back to Brady, but that it was not the same $25,000. The 325,000 which was paid to Brady, ac- cording io Sulzer, was to compromise a suit for $46,000 which he said Brady had brought against Murphy. “Murphy sent J. Sergeant Cram tio see Brady and get him to call off the suit,” said Sulzer. “Brady was angry and wouldn't listen to Cram. He said Murphiy had sworn falsely in his an- swer to the suit and that he had bel- ter come across with the money or he would press the suit and expose him.” Murphy, on the advice of Samuel A. Beardsley, Brady's attorney, finally went to sce Brady himself, Sulzer said, and Brady compromised for $25,000. Ryan’s $10,000 Aiso Went to Murphy. “Brady made him a present of §$15,- 000,” added the witness. “The sum- mons and complaint in this suit, if they are not destroyed, would make interesting reading at this time.” Sulser also testified concerning the 310,000 contribution which Allan A. Ryan, son of Thomas F. Ryan, the financier, asserted at the witness' im- peachment trial he gave to Sulzer and which was never reported in Bulzer’s list of contributions. The witness said he gave it to John H. Delaney, now head of the state bureau of efficiency and economy, and that Delaney told him be had given it to Murphy. This ‘was another contribution which he said Murphy told him would be listed un- der the name of a dummy. He declared — Don’tLet“Acid- Mouth” Stea/ Your Teeth It’s safest to be ever on guard against ‘‘acid- mouth,”” for it is the greatest filcher and stealer of tooth-health known to dentistry. ““Acid-mouth”’ works silently but swiftly— works mcognito and un- der a string of a/iases— but it’s always working.

McAvoy, Tammany leader of Harlem, and George W. Plunkett, another Tammany leader. McAvoy, calied as the next witness, denied that he had ever “given one dollar to the demogratic party , that wasn't my ewn money.” “I gave from $2,500 to $3,000 every year,” ne said. Plunkett. who was also to have been called, failed to respond to his sub- poena. $2,500 from Steel Trust. Another witness was William J. Suilivan, secretary to James A. Far- rell, president of the Unf States Steel corporation. He {estified that at the request of Farrell he had in 1312 given $2,600 in cash out of Farrell's personal funds to Arthur A. McLean, treasurer of the.democratic state com- miitee. Ile produced a receipt made out to hifnself and signed by McLean. “How did you happen to have the receipt made out in your name instead of Farrell's?’ the tness was asked. “It was my own idea,” said Sullivan, . “I knew that Mr. Farrell was the énly democrat in the steel organization and I thought ne would prefer not to have his name appear. He was quite exer- cised over it and told me that there was no reason why it uid not be in his name, but to let it go as it was im- material.” Contribution Never Reported. The witness added that there was nothing significant in the fact that the contribution was made in cash, as he was accustomed to vay large bills for his employer by cash instead of check. It was brought out that the contri- bution was never reported by the democratic state committee. A sub- poena was issued for Sullivan by the managers in charge of Sulzer's im-~ % peachment, but he was never called. WANTS ROCK ISLAND ROAD INVESTIGATED. “It doesn’t seem a bit greasy,” is the J universal verdict about the pleasant-to-use Cottolene Because of its purity and high shortening value Cottolene makes foods tender and delicious. It has been a favorite cooking fat for many years. HOMINY CRESCENTS Fine hominy or.corn meal may be used in the same way to serve with meats or for breakfast with syrup. Cook 2-3 cup hominy or meal in 1 pint Loiling water over the fire until thickened, then place over boiling water to finish cook- ing for about an hour, adding salt and more water if too stiff, also the yolk of an egg, or a little butter. When done, pour into flat pan and when cool cut into crescents, diamonds or strips, roll in egg and crumbs and fry in Cottolene. MRS, HELEN ARMSTRONG. It “creams up” beautifully when used in mixing pastry. Itis a firm fat when cool, but nevertheless is always of just the right consistency to blend evenly with the flour or sugar. You who make cakes, pies, cookies, biscuits and the like know what an advantage this is. Cottolene is especially excellent for all frying—whether pan frying or deep frying. Foods fried in Cottolene do not absorb grease, neither does Cottolene absorb odors. Using it over and over for frying, you not only find it eco- nomical, but you produce food that is wholly digesti- ble and most appetizing. A. prominent physician says of Cottolene: “Cottolene, being essentially a vegetable product, forms the most healthful and nutritious cooking medium known to the food experts and medical profession.”—(From an article in the American Housekzeper, entitled “The Most Elealthful of All Cooking Fats,” by Dr. James Paige] Emery.) lowa Congressman Compares It With the New Haven. ‘Washington, Feb. 26.—Bitter critic- ism of the Rock Island railway and ifs financial operations was raised in the house today by Representative Green of JTowa, speaking in support of his resolution to authorize the interstate commerce commission to make an in- vestigation of that rcad.
