This aras preceded b* a dramatic denun?
ciatlon from Blumenherg of the steno?
graphic note? by J. K- Sherl'lan. then on
the witness Stand, a? "faked" and -manu?
factured." The notes purported to have
bei-n recorded from a phonographic repro?
duction of ths alleged admission by Chartas
McCowan at Toronto that he SWOTS falsely
before the committee.
Throughout the daj Utmieubrrg had
peered over Sheridan'? shoulder as Hi* wit
nesa read from his note?. Immediately
after tluf session began to-night Blunien
berg procured Sheridans notebook. Alter
Inspecting it lie whispered to Kdward

dan's notes and was prepared to denounce
them as "fak? B."
?What do you mean b) tli.it?" ?letnanded
Banater .ion?-,, who was presiding.
? I mean they have been manufactured,
and are not th?' reporl Of a conversation,
made as It took place."
"Oh. you are mistaken about that.' ?l??
ela red Sheridan.
Senators Jones. l,ea and Kenyan, lbs
only members present, asked him to whom
he had talkeil about the notes. Blumen?
berg named Mr. HUMS, Miss Lawler, a
committee employe, and one or Iwo others.
Von did not eoaununleate with a mem

"No."
?Why?''

Tells of Toronto Conversation.
At the day session H. B, Kerr. Of I>etro,t,
a brass ? Xpert" and friend of A ('. Bailo y,
a ?ietectlvf. and J, K. Sheridan, testified.
i\> rr detailed the Toronto cunvercuiion
, In almost th?' precise words used by Bailey.
Whether the men gathered la th?- room and
ordered one round of beer perplexed Ke? r.
'Looks as if yo?i people and Burns failed
to remember several things that happened
j in tne last fifteen days. 1 remember thlng?
a month hack," BBSjSJBSted Senator Fletch

of beer.
"How does it happen you l*0*Hemb0l so

other things?" inquired Senator Jones.
"1 paid especial attention to what was

"Didn't y??u think MHIowan was rather
easy to talk so freely to you the first time
he met you?" asked Senator Kenyon.
"I think he liked me. I know I liked him.
and de still."
"Lore at flint sight:" snapped Senator
Jones.
"Have yon l>?-en ?Irlnking to-day?" nsked
Mr. Hynes, in beginning his ?-ross-examlna

Ken ?aid iie "had a l?ott!?' of !?er for

When Ken's attention was ?ailed to Ihe
phonograph!?- aoCOOnt showing Kerr said
Hlnea was "so crooked he could not Hs la
bed straight." Senator Junes asked Why he
did not repeat that when he began the ac?
count of the conversation to the committee.
"Well. I'm no orator?" was the reply.
"I am doing the best 1 can."
Sheridan was cross-examined sharply as
to why he recorded only part of the BBS*?
