Williams, eae Correspondent of The Bvening ‘World, WASHINGTON, July 7.—Lamar, the Wolf; Lauterbach, the lawyer, end Martin, anti-trust champion, \ crouched and cringed to-day under fire of the Senate lobby investigation. No longer brazen and doflant, they Presented pitiable figures as the com- mittee lawyers dug the probe of ¢rose-examination mercilessly into the operations of the trio. Lauterbach was the witness. He, the fewyer who has tried so many cases, €ross-examined so many witnerecs with @arcaam an* cutting inquiry, was al- Most in tears as the tables were turned upen ‘him. His voice trembled like that of a crying child. He hesttated, atam- Mered, tupned, twisted, dodged, evaded, @zplained, feigned indignation, and practised every art of trapped animal in his efforts to avold ad- mitting attempts to shake down J. P. Morgan and the Steel Trust, as well as the Union Pacific crowd. LAMAR’S DARING GIVES WAY TO HAUNTED FEAR.

Congress inv: Lauterbach went to Morgan to tel! him what the Wicked Lamar purposed do- fing, and to deciare that if only the great king of finance would say a kind word to “the wolf” it all could be stopped. But Morgan declined, and Steele, his partner, sald they would welcome an inquiry, which sure enough came along @ome time later.

At 4 o'clock thia afternoon, J. 8 Jud- king, who has offices adjoining those of the Stern firm, heard loud rappings from the adjoining office, as though @ome one was hammering on a table. He ran into the hall and there found a seventeen-year-old boy, who later turned out to be Joseph Frietman, a brother of the clerk, standing in the hall, peer- ing through a narrow aperture in the door through which letters may be passed. “My brother is in there, bound and gagged, and he can’t get out.

Armstrong, in charge of the detectives in the jewelry diatrict, was hastily summoned, with Detectives Summers, Crystal and Millwork, Dr, Conkey, from the Hudson Street Honp!- tal, arrived about the same time and examined Friedman. The youth claimed to have been struck down with @ billy, but only a small, inmgnificant lump could be found on his head, and the physician declared there was nothing for him to do. ‘The "Job" looked #o suspicious to the detectives that Joseph Friedman was sent to Police Headquarters to be ques tloned by Deputy Commissioner Dough- erty, while Louts Friedman was kept in the firm's offices until the arrival of “finger print” experts from Headquar- ter The youth claimed to the detectives that while he had the safe opened, trana- ferring to it the co its of the trunk, @ man about 6 feet 2 inches in height, welghing 300 pounds, had entered the of- fice, bearing @ card from the Interna- tlonal Silver Company, of Nos, 911 Maiden Lane, and asked to be shown ome allver mesh bags. As he turned to get the bags, the boy sald, he was struck a blow on the back of the head with a billy.

LONDON, July 7.—The jury which for eight days has been hearing the sult to break the will made by the late Sir John Murray Scott by which he left nearly $5,001,000 to Lady Sackville, daughter of the former British Minister at Washington, to-day sustained the will, The jury found no undue influ- ence or frayd on the part of Lady Sackville, Lady Suckville was not present In court when the concluding stage of the case opened to-day, It was stated that she felt the need of rest after her experience on the witness stand last week. Sir Edward Carson addressed the} Jury on behalf of Lord and Lady Sack- ville, upholding the validity of the! testator’s will. Sir Edward Carson declared that Bir John Soott could have changed his will, made twelve years before his death in favor of the Suckvilles, at any time if he had wished to do so, The only hope of the plaintiffs, the members of the Scott family, was, ho argued, In max- nifying and exaggerating the trivial quarrels of a long friendship into the appearance of something !mportant.
