More testimony became public to- jaay in the suit for $10,000,000 brought ‘by Louis N. Hartog against the Corn |Products Refining Company, Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall; Arthur J. Baldwin, Murphy's attor- ey, and John A. McCarthy, Mur- ‘@ political associate and friend. Murphy has brought a counter sult against Hartog for $175,000, The testimony of Baldwin, under examination by Max Steuer of coun- eel for Hartog by order of Justice Bijur, presents Murphy's aide of the jcontroversy, It made clear that | Baldwin, who went to President Bed- ford of Corn Products and Standard Oil, as @ representative of Murphy, obtained for Hartog glucose which the Corn Products Company was un- Willing to sell to Hartog for himself. Baldwin swore that Vice President Walden of Corn Products told him Hartog, who had a $7,000,000 contract with the British Government for the denefit of British brewers, was not entitled to any more glucose than had already been allotted to him, There was a shortage of glucose, and further sales to Hartog would “get Corn Products in trouble with other |dealers.” It was arranged, according to testimony, that Corn Products I believe there) — a cumbent,)—I believe the enactment and enforcement of the Federal Prohibition Law is unconstitutional. ‘The matter should have veen left to the States. The people of each State should be entitied to vote on this issue, W. F. Koster, R. and Personal Liberty—The sentiments of my would sell to Baldwin at one cent a pound above the market price of glu- cose and would deliver “body syrup,” which was practically glucose. The one cent a pound was later rebated te Baldwin, Murphy, according to his former attorney, learned that Hartog— against whom the Corn Products Company had warned his new anso- ciates—was not using all the glucose delivered to him to fill the British contract. A new contract was mad by which Murphy took one-fourth of the stock of the North Kensington Refinery for $250,000 and was entitled to share in Hartog’s domestic profits, In the course of the negotiations Vice President Walden engaged Bald- win as @ lawyer “in a certain matter” for the Corn Products Company. Baldwin refused to divulge the nature of this business, but denied that he had ever said Murphy would “bring to bear” upon the Corn Company to force deliveries of glucose to Hartog. Murphy heard Hartog was boasting among his acquaintances, Baldwin suid, of being “in business with Charles F. Murphy.” Murphy told Baldwin, It ie asserted, he could not afford to be associated with @ business which savored of profiteering in war time and wanted to get out. Hartog object- ed to letting Murphy out. At this point, it was said, Baldwin sent word to the Corn Products Company: “Ship no more glucose to me.” Har- tog’s supply of raw material was cut off. In the meantime, acording to testl- mony, John McCarthy will buy it,” meaning Murphy's share in the glucose busi- ness. McCarthy did buy it, but Har- tog refused to return the funds Mur- phy had advanced for the business, saying Murphy had agreed to take them out of profits, pt. ood GIRL “RED” ARRESTED. - Ida Lachotseky Tak: “Arm Yourself” Charged with having dropped tn the United States mails coples of an anar- chistic circular known as “Arm Your- self,” Ida Luchkofsky, twenty-two, a Russian of No, 484 Grand Street, was arrested to-day by Dotectives Hermann and Murphy of the Bomb Squad and held for arraignment. before United States Commissioner Hitchcock, The Luchkofaky girl, employed in the shirt factory of her brother-in-law in Brooklyn, aid to have “worked” with Mollie Stetmer, who was sent to Tombs Prison yeaterday in default of $5,000 ball following a hand bill “tending to incite arson and as- sansination. twenty-two, constituents shall decide, I am in|+ favor of temperance tn work, pleasure and in life—not Probibi- on.
