Illinois Democrats, It Was Alleged, Were Paid to Join Republicans In Legislature and Break Deadlock by Electing Chicago Man—Ends Dis- cussion That Has Lasted Long While. Washington, March 1.—Senator Wil- liam Lorimcr of Illinois will retain bis seat. The charges that ho obtained it by bribery were not upheld by the seuato in a vote on the resolution of Senator Beveridge declaring that Sen- ator Lorimer was not legally elected by the Illinois, legislature. The vote was 40 to 40 against un- seating Senator Lorimer. William Lorimer, as congressman from the Sixth Illinois district, tras a power in the slate at the time of the campaign of 1D0.S, in which he was trying to defeat Charles S. Deneen for governor. He had come to the con- clusion that Albert J. Hopkins, whom in 1903 he had made junior senator from Illinois, had betrayed him. Lori- mer, therefore, was after his scalp. The legislature met in 1000 and be- gan balloting Jan. 19. Hopkins receiv- ed the necessary votes in the senate, but in the house he failed to do so on account of a factional fight there. This Republican split in the house caused a deadlock on the senatorship, which lasted from Jan. 10 to May 20. In Ihe course of the session Lorimer became friendly again with Deneen. He tried t o have Deneen elected t o the senate to defeat Hopkins; but, not suc- ceeding in this, he became a candidate himself. On May 2i>, a t roll call, fifty- three Democratic ballots were cast for Lorimer. About this time the Chicago Tribune published a manuscript which it had bought—the price is said to have been $3,200—from a Democratic legislator of the name of White. \White assert- ed that he had been paid .f 1,000 by Lee O'Xeil Brnwne for his vote for Lori- mer and fin 10 in addition as his share of a senatorial \jack pot.\ The offer was made to him on the night before the Democratic flop which elected Lorimer. and the following week, he alleged, he received $100 from Browne, later $.\50 and finally .?8.\)0. At the time of this last payment White declares that Browne carried with him a belt containing $30,000. In July, according to White's story, he went to St. Louis, and in the lobby SENATOR WILLIAM I.OBIJIEB. of the Southern hotel he found four other Democratic legislators from Illi- nois. It was there that he received the jack pot allowance. Before the grand jury a Democratic legislator named Beckemeyer confessed that lie had received from Brown*- $1,000 for his senatorial vote, with tin- remark, \There's your Lorimer money.' Two legislators, Wilson and Link, whom White asserted that he met ai the Southern hotel in St. Louis, were indicted for perjury before this grand jury. Link, however, afterward con- fessed to receiving §1,000. TVhpn the hearing finally got under way, however, May 2S, 1010, Senator Lorimer made a vigorous speech in the United States senate defending th-> character of Browne and laying the accusations to a political conspiracy. While he was making this address State Senator D. W. Holtslow, a re spected Democrat of Marion county, was confessing to the grand jury in Illinois that he had been paid $2,500 for his Lorimer vote. The jury remained in a deadlock US hours, whereupon the judge, seeing no hope of a verdict, dismissed them. It is said that the alignment was eight for conviction qf the indicted man to four for acquittal. The United States senate decided in June, 1910, to investigate the Lorimer charges on its own behalf. After t:ht> hearing-, in which several of .the indict- ed men confessed to receiving bribe money, the senate committee on privi- leges and elections in December sub; •ROF. CHARLES ZUEBLfN.

Chic-ago, March 1.—Money, not the possession of it, but its lack, is re- sponsihle for the degradation of the millions of women who must marry mcu whom they do not love. Lack of economic independence has compelled women to place this stigma upon their sex. These were the conclusions of Pro- fessor Charles Zuebiin in a lecture on \The Family.\ He advanced a new reason for the existence of \the un- written law.\ He said that it was due to the fact that a woman with \a mil- lion dollar personality\ found herself dependent upon a \thousand dollar masculine income.\ - \It is a painful fact that unless a man and woman love each other or are sacrificing themselves for the sake of their children they have no right to live together,\ he said. \Yet there are millions who do and must.\ Another Is Held, Charged Willi omitting flie Deed. New York, March 1.—Annie MeCar- rick, thirty-live years old, is in jail charged with setting Are to Mary Mc- Nerny's hair in their room, 3.17 West Twenty-fifth street. Mrs. McXerny is in Bellevue hospital with all the hair singed off her head and her face and snalp frightfully burned. The two women occupied two rooms on th« top floor of the tenement. Ac- cording to Mrs. McNerny, she laid her head on the kitchen table and fell asleep. When she awoke it was to find her hair afire. Her husband heard her screams and, running in, ex- tinguished the flames. Dr. Rose, from the New York hos- pital, found the woman in such a se- rious condition he rushed her to Belle- vue. The police arrested the McCar- rick woman. An empty kerosene oil lamp was found on the floor beside the tablr- where 1 Mrs. MeNerny had been sleep- ing, and the police say the strong odor of kerosene i n the room indicated that the woman's hair had been satu- rated with oil before it was set afire. BURIES MOTHER, THEN WEDS Minister Performs Marriage and Fu- neral Ceremonies on Same Day. New York, March 1.—The Rev. An- drew C. Wilson, rector of St. Paul's C'rotestant Episcopal church, Brooklyn, preached a funeral sermon for Mrs. James A- Babcock in the afternoon and six hours later performed the mar- riage ceremony for Gates Babcoclc, son of the dead woman, and Miss Addie B. Murr. The wedding invitations had been sent out before Mrs. Babcock was taken ill. They were recalled, but it was tilie dying wish that her son should marry Miss Murr at the appointed time. FALLS IN RIVER; ARRESTED. Wat Stoker Didn't Want to Be Treated, So He Goes to Jail. New York, March 1.—'William Has- ted, a stoker, fell into the East river while trying to board the tugboat Phoenix at the foot of Broad street and wias fished out nearly drowned. When an ambulance surgeon at- tempted to treat him for submersion he fought him off and was arrested. Pleads Guilty to Charge of Stealing $27,000. HIS INSANITY WAS A SHAM, Fooled Alienists and Attorneys In Hope of Escaping Jail Sentence, but Gave Up When Confronted by the Jury That Was to Try Him—To Be Sentenced March 27. New York, March 1.—Tired of play- ing the part of an insane man and re- alizing that it is impossible for him to longer hoodwink the public and the jury before which lie is being tried, Joseph G. Robin, the skyrocket finan- cier and bank -wrecker, abandoned his defense of insanity and pleaded guilty before Justice Seabury i n the criminal branch of the supreme court. Itobin, AVIIO was adjudged insane by thirteen eminent alienists, now says that he i s absolutely sane and that he has been sane all the time, but that he was shamming in order to \beat the case.\ Justice Seabury postponed sentence until March 27. Following his pleading guilty Robin broke down, sobbing loudly. His sis- ter. Dr. Louise Rabinowitch, tried to console him, throwing her arms about him. but he was inconsolable. Ho had continued his pose of insanity up to the moment he jumped up and plead- ed guilty, when his feigning seemed to drop. The sudden change of affairs in the proceedings came after former Dis- trict Attorney Jerome had withdrawn from the case and brought the trial to a sensational close. Owing to his be liefs in the matter Mr. Jerome told Justice Seabury that he could no longer conscientiously go on as Ro- bin's legal adviser. The specific charge against Robin was the larceny of $27,000 from the Washington bank. The eight indict- ments against him involved more than 5200,000. Robin has been in the Tombs for the last two months in de- fault of $40,000 bail. Robin had a meteoric career after he came to this country from his Rus- sian home fourteen years ago. He is now thirty-four years old. From a penniless peasant he became a million- aire—first a book agent, then a re- porter, a real estate promoter and then a high financier, whose sensational methods finally landed him behind the bars. The climax of his operations came Dec. 27, when the Northern bank, with its nine branches in the Bronx and Manhattan and with deposits approx- imating §7,000,000, closed its doors. Robin was the controlling stock- holder of the institution. A few days later the Washington bank, of which he was president, closed its doors, and the other corporations in which he was the moving spirit went Into the hands of a receiver. The assertion was made that Robin had attempted suicide by jumping from a window. His mind, it was stated, was temporarily unbalanced by financial worries, and he was sent to a sanitarium. The day the banks closed Dr. C. F. MacDonald ordered Robin t o leave the sanitarium to which he had been com- mitted. He did so, accompanied by his sister. Robin was arrested after the grand jurj- had indicted him on a charge of grand larceny for the alleged misap- propriation of $S0,000 from the Wash- ington bank. He was released on $25,- 000 bail. On the following day he col- lapsed. .On being revived he said he had taken twelve small tablets of hy- oscyamine, a poison, while on his way to the court. After his return from Bellevue hos- pital, whither he had been taken for treatment for his dose of poison, his bail was increased to 540,000. It was about this time that the dis- trict attorney in searching Robin's record found Mr. and Mrs. Herman Rabinowitch, an elderly couple, living in Brooklyn. They said that Robin was their son. Robin when confronted by them in the district attorney's office repudiated them. So did his sister. Robin admit- ted that they had brought him to this country, but insisted that his real par- ents when he last heard of them were exiles in Siberia. Dr. Louise Rabinowitch was subse- quently indicted for perjury because i n a statement made before Judge GofC she had declared that she and her brother Edward were the only heirs at law. She spent one night m . the Tombs In default of $3,000 bail, but was later released. Then the battle of the experts reach- ed its climax. The experts for both sides declared the defendant itisane, but a jury Jan. 31 declared him sane. Judge Swann complimented the jury on their decision, but Jerome was furi- ous, declaring that the finding: was a farce. Robin did not decide.to plead guilty until after all the jurors were drawn for his trial. Eiectetl Candidate For Mayor by Democrats !n Chicago Primaries. Photo by American Press Association. GHi I Gi Harrison and Merriam Candi- dates of th Primaries. Chicago, March 1.—Carter H. Harri- son, Democrat, and Charles E. Mer- riam, Republican, are the candidates who will fight for the mayoralty of Chicago on April 4. It was estimated that 250,000 votes were cast in the primaries, hundreds j of thousands of dollars distributed among the faithful and many cracked heads recorded in the various hospitals. Every ballot cast cost $3. The enor- mous sum of !?<>0f;,r>00 was spent by the organizations of the various candidates for office and by the city to get out and then care for the vote. POSTAL BANKS PROSPER. Depositors Are Just Beginning to Realize the Advantages. Washington, March 1.—More depos- its were made in the postal savings banks during the first week of Feb- ruary than during all January, ac- cording t o estimates made at the post- office department. Department officials account for the increase by the fact that depositors are just beginning to realize the workings of the system and the advantages that will result to them from opening accounts with Uncle Sam. A' stylishly dressed young woman called at the Washington postoffi.ee with $2,000 in cash with which to open an account. When told there was no branch in this city she expressed dis- appointment and said she would not deposit the money with private banks. JOKE PROMPTED MARRIAGE. IF YOU WANT HELP, ADVER- TISE IN THE JOURNAL, Harvard Student Made Good a News- paper Report. Cambridge. Mass., March 1.—So sur- prised was Graham Glass, Jr., a Har- vard senior, and Miss Helen C. Roch of Roxbury at the announcement printed in the papers that they had elopSfl to Nashua, N. H., that they did exactly that. After reading of their marriage, evi- dently the joke of a college chum, they decided immediately to wed, and the Rev. George Edmund Soper of Nashua performed the ceremony. MAN HAS A TWO YARD WAIST His Collar Is Size 24, and He Weighs 518 Pounds. Brockton, Mass., March 1.—When Charles H. Jackson, sixty-two years old, went into a tailor shop to got a suit of clothes it was found that he measured exactly two yards around the waist. He weighs 518 pounds and wears a 2-i collar. His chest measures (55 inches, his arm above the elbow 22 inches around, wrist 1V/2 inches, calf of leg 22 inches and thigh 36 inches. NO LIQUOR ON TRAINS. Nebraska Railroads Enjoined From Selling Drinks to Travelers. Lincoln, Neb., March 1. — The su- preme court has issued an order of in- junction against the Union Pacific and the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroads prohibiting the sale of intox- icants on trains.' The order was issued on representa- tions of the attorney general that the law enacted two years ago prohibit- ing drinking of liquor on trains had been violated. FACTOR Receives Eighteen Votes In Albany Deadlock, SHEEHAN OFFERS TO QUIT. If Insurgents Are Promised That He Will Not Be Nominated Again a New Democratic Caucus Will Be Held and a Compromise Candidate Selected and Elected. Albany, N. Y., Biarch 1.—Martin W. Littleton jumped into the running as a real candidate for United States sena- tor to succeed Chauncey M. Depew when he received eighteen votes i n the joint ballot. William F. Sheehan re- ceived seventy-seven. Eighty-nine -were necessary to choice. The vote was: Sheehan, 77; Littleton, 18; Kernan, 1; O'Brien, 3; Sulzer, 2; Hopper, 1; Parker, 1; Glynn, 1; Carlisle, 1; Tjazansky, 1; Depew, 71; total votes cast, 177. Hope has dawned that the senatorial deadlock which has existed since Jan. 17 will be broken this %veek, possibly on Friday, by the withdrawal of Wil- liam F. Sbeehan. A new Democratic caucus probably will be called and a compromise candidate selected. That Mr. Sheehan has promised to with- draw if the second caucus favors some one else is believed, following a long statement in which he says: \If the majority of all the elected Democratic senators and assemblymen shall sign a call requesting that the Democratic caucus be reassembled I shall loyally abide by the decision of that caucus, and If such caucus shall decide that another than myself shall be chosen to carry the party standard which 1 have been carrying since Jan. 10, 1011, I will give to such candidate my unqualified and whole hearted sup- port. If another than myself should be chosen as the result of such ma- jority action I would in such event ask every Democrat in the legislature to vote for the choice of the majority.\ It is expected that the Sheehan lead- ers will circulate a petition for the reassembly of the caucus. The prema- ture announcement of the intention of Governor Dix to issue a call for this caused his plan to be upset, but Mr. Sheehan, it is said, was induced to make a statement which would allow the call to come from the leaders in the legislature. There is no doubt that the governor approves the contemplated action. The chief stumbling block is the attitude of the insurgents. They fear to at- tend the caucus again without posi- tive assurance that Mr. Sheehan will be entirely eliminated as n. candidate. It is said that these assurances will be given them. ABE RUEFF IN JAIL NOW. San Francisco Grafter Must Serve Fourteen Year Sentence. San Francisco, March 1.—Abraham Rueff, former political leader of San Francisco, who has been out on bail of nearly $250,000 for some time past, pending the result of certain appeals, is back in jail. He was taken into custody after the state supreme court announced that a recent order granting him a rehear- ing had been vacated. This action of the court apparently sets aside RuefC's last hope for escaping his sentence of fourteen years in San Quentin. The decision, which is long, recites that the finding of the appellate court In RuenT's case is final. The supreme court bases this decision on the point that the absence of Judge Henshaw from the state when the rehearing was granted rendered that decision invalid. NEW SKIRT HAS ARRIVED. Drapery Cut In Four Quarters to Bs Reproduced In New York. New York, March 1. — New York dressmakers are planning to reproduce immediately the four-quarter skirt that was worn on the.Prinz Friedrich Wlihelm by Mrs. Jeanne Marchal.

When Mrs. Marchal walked in a breeze the streamers of the skirt part- ed, showing a pair-of velvet knicker- bockers \ of Louis ' Quatorze cut, to\ which were added silk stockings and jumps with jeweled buckles.
