CORONER'S JURY SAYS
DOCTOR KILLED GIRL
Robert Thompson Charged with
Murder of Eva Swan in
San Francisco
RAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 28.—Dr.
Robert Thompson, alias Grant, was
formally charged by the coroner's Jury
today with the murder of Eva C.
Swan, the young stenographer whose
mutilated body was found buried be
neath the cement flooring of a vacant
house last Friday night.
The verdict charged that Thompson
performed an operation upon the
young woman, which resulted in her
death. In conclusion the Jury re
quested that the authorities take steps
to stop malpractice in medicine "so
common at present" and prevent the
display of signs advertising "this crim
inal practice."
Immediately after the rendering of
the verdict Paul Parker, tha former
Stanford athlete, who had been held
since last Sunday in connection with
the case, was released. No evidence
tending to connect him with the case
was adduced before the jury.
Dr Thompson already rests under a
murder charge preferred by the district
attorney.
The police were informed today that
a man answering the description ot
William Saack, former assistant to Dr.
Thompson, had escaped from the gov
ernment hospital at Angel Island last
Monday night. It is believed that he
left the hospital after learning of the
ilisi overy of Eva Swan's body.

RESTRICT PROSECUTION
IN TRIAL OF HASKELL
Court Rules Evidence Be Confined
to Proof of 'Conscious
Participation'
McALESTER, Okla., Sept. 28.—The
hearing In the trial of Governor C. N.
Haskeil and others in the Muskogee
town lot cases was postponed today
until tomorrow. Federal Judge John
A. Marshal] granted a request hy the
government's attorneys that they be
allowed time to examine their witnesses
before putting them on the stand.
Judfi-"' Marshall ruled that the evi
dence against Haskett would have to
be confined to proof of "conscious par
ticipation" in the alleged conspiracy in
the three years prior to the returti of
the indictment against him, which w.is
on May .'7. 1909.
S. R. Rush, special assistant to the
attorney general, said the government
did not wish to take up the time of the
court if the witnesses for the proseeu
tlon would bo unable to present evi
dence under the n strlctlons laid down
by the court. Mr. Rush said he did
not wish his statement to be taken as
Indicating the government was nnt
sure of its case. Heretofore he said
the government expected to use evi
dence coverning the entire period of
the alleged conspiracy, which began In
1901. The ruling of the court restrict
ing the prosecution made it necessary
to reconsider the government's cast-.
Judge Marshall's ruling was based
on a decision handed down by the cir
cpit court of Minneapolis at St. Louis,
Mo., last June in what was known as
the Lonobaugh case.

TELLS INSIDE OF
I. C. CAR FRAUDS
Former President of Ostermann
* Company Relates Sensa
tional Story
PAID OFFICIALS FOR BUSINESS
Testifies Vice President Rawn
Received Percentage on
Repair Charges
[Associated Press}
CHICAGO, Sept. 28.—Henry C. Ostcr
inann, former president of the Oster
mann Manufacturing company, who Is
said to have been a big factor in the
Illinois Central car repair frauds, re
lated a sensational story of the inside
workings of his concern before Munici
pal Judge Burggemeyer today.
• The lato Ira G. Rrawn, former presi
dent of the Monon route, who was mys
teriously shot to death at his summer
home last July, was named by Oster
mnnn as One of the chief figures In the
alleged srraft ring. .. ■ .
Ostermann declared that Itawn, when
vice president of tho Illinois Central,
was given 1600 shares of stock in the
Ostermann Manufacturing company,
and that this was increased to 2700
shares.
He said Rawn sold his stock to the
Ostermann plant at par, or $5 a share.
After he had sold back the stock for
$13,600, the witness testified, Rawn de
manded and got first $5, then $10, and
finally $15 for each car repaired, or al
leged to have been repaired, at the
Ostermann plant.
FAYS RAWN *10,500
Ostermann testified that he person
ally made one payment of $10,500 to
Rawn, which, he said, was for 700 cars
upon which the concern collected re
pair bills.
In addition to the payment per car
'as to Rawn, said Ostermann, a fixed
monthly sum.was paid certain officials
and a 2 per cent per month dividend
was paid on large blocks of Ostermann
Manufacturing- company stock held by
Illinois Central officers.
"What Illinois Central officials held
stock In your company?" Ostermann
was asked by Attorney Walter L*.
Fisher, counsel for the railroad.
'"Ira G. Rawn had 2700 shares, Frank
B. Harriman had 2200, John M. Taylor
had first 1000 and then 6000, Joseph B.
Buker had 2200, William Renshaw had
1500 and W. .T. Taylor had 600 shares.
S. P. and Mildred Harriman had 100
shares each, but I do not know who
they are, or whether they were con
nected with the Illinois Central com
pany, , their stock being *bought and
paid for by Frank B. Harriman."
TCKNS DOWN FRIENDS '
Ostermann then told of the organiza
tion of his company and how the men
who helped him get started were later
"turned down" to favor certain Il
linois Central officials.
Ostermann first jeeured a patent on
a special door for box cars. To get
money to market the enterprise he j
went to his old friends, to brakemen,
conductors, yardmen and other em
ployes. Many of them purchased stock
in the concern with their savings. They
paid par value for the stock, but were
never given anything but a nominal
dividend upon their investments.
"The idea of going into the car re
pair business was first suggested to me
by a Mr. Considlno, whom I met while
selling stock in the grain door enter
prise," said Ostermann. Later I took
it up with John M. Taylor of the Illi
nois Central. Ho discouraged me at
first and later assisted me, Joseph Bu
ker and Ira G. Rawn to arrange for
a contract to do the repair work for
the Illinois Central.
"Mr. Rawn asked me how many cars
I thought I could turn out and I replied
about twenty-five a day. You are the
man we are looking for,' he said, and
the deal was arranged."

FAVORED LORIMER
BUT TOOK $2500
State Senator D. T. Holtslaw
Tells Committee of Re
ceiving Money
GETS HIS SHARE OF 'JACKPOT'
Legislator Claims He Did Not
Know Why $700 Was
Presented Him
(Associate Press*
CHICAGO, Sopt. 28.—State Senator p.
T. Holstlaw of luka, one of the fifty
three Democrats who voted for the
election of Senator William Lorlmer,
on the witness stand, today before the
senatorial Investigating committee, tes
tified that after he had voted for Sen
ator Lorimer he received $2500 and that
he supposed the money was paid be
cause of his vote.
The state senator, who until recently
was a banker in luka and- had some
prominency in the Baptist church, was
the second legislator to tell the com
mittee that money was paid because
of a vote for Lorimer.
Senator Holtslaw, In response to the
question by Attorney Austrian, "Was
anything said about payment for your
vote for Senator Lorimer?" said:
"The night before the election of
Senator Lorimer I met State Senator
John Broderick outside the St. Nicholas
hotel in Springfield, and he said to me:
'They are going to elect Lorimer to
morrow.'
"I replied: 'Yes, I think bo, and I am
going to vote for him."
REFERS TO MOXEY
"He said: 'Well, there is $2500 in It
for you.'
"That was all that was said. I In
tended to vote for Lorimer anyway,
and had made up my mind three or
four days before that and did not know
there was a thing In it for me."
"Were you offered anything?" was
asked, and the witness replied:
"He did not offer me anything, and
simply said there was $2500 in it for
me."
"Did you get the $2500?"
"Yes," was the answer. "I went to
Chicago about June 16, 1909, to Senator
Broderick's office and he gave me
$2500, which he counted out of an en
velope. He merely said 'Here's that
money,' and I said nothing to him be
yond greeting him when I met him."
On further examination, Holstlaw
said he supposed the money was paid
for his vote for Lorimer.
In response to the question by Sena
tor Prazier, Holstlaw said Broderlek
was the first man to speak to him re
garding voting for Senator Lorlmer.
"Did you ask what the $2500 was for,
or who was paying It?" queried Senator
Frazier. /•
--' ASKS NO QUESTIONS
"No," was the reply, "I asked noth
ing."
The witness declared he had had no
other conservation with Broderlck rela
tive to the vote, and that he went to
Chicago to see Broderlck in response to
a letter, the substance of which was a
request from Broderlck that he (Holst
law) meet him In his office.
"Did Broderlck owe you anything?",
asked Senator Frazter.
"No." was the reply, and the same
monosyllabic negative was the wit
ness' reply to the questions "Did you
have any claim upon him?" and "Was
there any reason other than your con
versation before the election for the
payment?"
Further on Holstlaw said that later
Broderick paid him $700.
"When I got the $700 Senator Broder
ick simply said that much was coming
to me, and I simply took It. I don't
know what It was for."
The $700 has been referred to as part
of the alleged jackpot fund.
CONFESSION RECALLED
Senator Paynter asked the witness if
Senator Lorlmer or the senatorial elec
tion was mentioned when he received
the $2500 from Senator. Broderick.
"Neither Senator Lorlmer nor the
senatorial election was mentioned
then," said Senator Holtslaw.
A confession signed by Holtslaw May
28, 1910, when he was before the Sanga
mon county grand jury, was presented,
and Attorney Austrian called the atten
tion of the witness to his statement
there that "Broderick told me there was
$2500 In it for me if I would vote for
Lorimer."
On cross-examination Attorney Han
ecy brought out that Holtslaw had told
many persons prior to the Lorimer elec
tion that he had made up his mind to
vote for Lorlmer.
Asked by Senator Johnston what In
duced him to vote for Lorimer, the
witness replied:
"We had tried so long to elect a Dem
ocrat and could not, I thought electing
Lorlmer would make the breach wider
In the Republican ranks. I naturally
liked Lorimer, and just made up my
mind to vote for him."
RECEIVES NO ADVICE
"Who advised you the time had come
to vote for Lorlmer?" was asked.
"No one."
"Did you know that anyone was paid
to vote for him?"
"I did not." ,
At the afternoon session Chairman
Burrows announced that Representa
tive White would be permitted to tell
what he did with the money he said he
received for his vote for the election of
Lorimer and his share of the alleged
jackpot, without making the ruling of
precedent In other testimony.
White then began a recital of his ex
penditures, beginning with his pay
ment of debts in O'Fallon, 111., his home
town.
White testified that he did not de
posit any of the $1000 he says he re
ceived for voting for Senator Lorlmer
in any bank, but left about $700 of it
over night In the custody of the cash
ier of a department store In East St.
Louis.
He also said that he did not deposit
In any bank any part of the $900 he
alleged he received as his share of the
alleged jackpot. .
