Impersonation of Congress- men Was All a Part of His Financial Game. WASHINGTON, July &—In an elabor- ate defense of his action in pledging fhe Democratic leaders of the House ‘and the Senate to the banking firm of 3. P. Morgan & Co., and of the personat- ing Congressmen Palmer and Riordan, Devid Lamar declared to the Senate Levey Committee to-day that it w: only ¢he ‘usual Wall street game.” He inaisted that he had been actuated by only “the highest public motives and that Gis plan had been two fold—to re- te Edward Lauterbach as Morr-n s ‘a attorney and also to force a general reform in Wall street methods. The “Wolf of Wall street” was not 8 domineering to-dey as on his first appetrance before the committee, The fact that he had nm forced publicly to waiye immunity from prosecution fer hig impersonations may have had ‘Time rebuked ‘by Chairman Over- man, tors Reed and Walsh, and finally was sharply warned that he erest stick to facts and not fancies or else be removed from the room. LAMAR GETS A REBUKE RIGHT AT START. At the outset Lamar declared that he was well satisfied to leave his fate in the hands of Senators Overman, Nelson and Cummins. “As far as Senators Reed and Walsh ere concerned’ * “Hold on, sir!” broke in Senator Over- man. ‘We will have none of this, If you want to make any statement we will hear you, but we will not permit any indulgence in personality.” Lamar declared that he lized that hie character on trial before the country, He declared he had planned impersonation of Riordan and of Palmer te uncover a base conspiracy against his friend Edward Lauterbach. He de clared that ae « result of his plan he had uncovered what he started for. “It qwas a Wall street pian designed to wes bring yard and his associates into the open,” he said. ‘They have ruined many men before. I wanted to get them. It was a game of duplicity on thelr part as much as it was on mine. 1 wanted to give them a dead open and shut case, wo that they would come out into the open. I used Mr, Lauterbach. \ wanted to give them prepared evi- dence that Lauterbach had lied, and they fell into the trap. It was an open game I got what I wanted.’ Here Senators Reed and Overman both rebuked Lamar for his personalities, and he apologized, saying that he only want- e@ to tell the actual facts, “You se Lamar resumed, “I felt certain that Ledyard knew it wae Lamar talking and not Paimer, My ear has become so perfectly attuned that T could hear him putting branch tele- phone lines on. I called Ledyard up and offered him the entire National Go ment in partnership with Morgan & Co., with the exception of the President.
