Very truly yours, FRANK BARRETT. Cap! In another letter Barrett writes: I employed Elwood Bruner Esq. as attorney to prepare a bill for the protection of oil pipe lines, for which I paid him 850. Within a day or two Mr. Bruner informed me that there were so many bills ahead of mine that it would be impossible to have it passed unless I would em- ploy » chairman of Judiciary and Dibble, ho was chai ules, and e one would charge §100.

The Senatorial contest of the regular ses- sion was then pending. Senators Rowell and Flint, who were voting against Burns, were advocates of the bill, and Thomas R.

There were ref- f| erences to delays caused by Senator Row- | || ell and A mbly Falrweather. | said frankly that he regarded his :x;nhf{f | ment by Captain Barrett as perfecl?y legitimate. He spoke also of having been 1etained as counsel for Public Administra- tors and being in a position to assist Cap- tain Barrett in the oil legislation. Ife was strong in the contention that he ex- pended more energy and time than $250 would pay for in Captain Barrett's oil bill. Mr. Bruner recollected that he wrote | and wired to Captain Barrett, but he was | pot sure that he ed for more money. | | He had the impression that he asked for | | additional payment. The attorney, when asked if the Com- mittee on Rules, Dibble chairman, wanted another $100, replied that he did not pay ‘}‘!Xhh)e a cent. He further remarked: And If you say in The Call that I said r | that Dibble was paid $100 by me I will have the statement contradicted by every pa ;;r 11;] (‘ha State.” ¥ e limit was put on to get some 1A why Mr. Bruner at first taxed vapmfi | Barrett 350 when they were at the theater and subsequently raised the amount to | $20, oFhe capiain and Mr. Bruner agree at $50 was the sum mentioned 0. at the theater. b et ‘ BILL WAS BLOCKED,. | Fairweather and Rowell Blamed by | §| Bruner for Impeding Its Progress. ! When the limit was taken off the attor- ney explained that the bill was blocked, but he would not admit that it was block- ed by Dibble and the chairman of the Judiciary committee.

The ‘*confidential mit” was put on or off. When he sald everything that he had a mind to say in confidence he was asked to speak for publication. He was not hurried.

He repplied, ““I did not pay Dibble one dollar,” and added: “Yes, that is for publication. I authorize you to say that I did not pay Dibble a dollar and ‘did not teil Captain Barrett that Dibble would charge $100. When the *“‘confidential limit” was Mr. Bruner was asked thls question: you had paid Dibble $100, $1000 or any other sum for the Committee on Rules would you acknowledge the fact of such payment?” Mr. Bruner replied: “I would tell you that it was none of your business, or I would say nothing.

When asked if the chairman of the committee on rules under such privileges would be justified In accepting a fee of $100 to advance a bill, he declined to ex- press an opinion. He fancied that the committee on rules as Now constituted was a new thing in the Legislature, and he remarked that such a committee did not exist when he was in the Legislature.
