He later sent a friend j to arrange another Interview with me, but I refused."

If f hnd sent him nothing the committee would have raised a ' stench that I had accepted hi services free, Ilei aupe I did, therefore, there Is something crooked la It." j iiingham aeerted tliat every Several times Caraway sought to Interrupt Bingham, but he declined to yield. Caraway then paced the senate floor, spending much of the time walking near Blhgham, who stood with one hand In a pocket and spoke almost In a monotone. "I sat here and listened to one Innuendo after another," Bingham said, "and was amazed that a senator would so forget himself that ha would stand In hla place on this floor and pan Innuendoes of that kind for political purposes, "Kvery effort has been made to twist flimsy evidence to show that I was crooked. It has been the purpose of the oommlttee from the beginning to see that I came out of thla befouled with political slime and corrupt Innuendoes." Bingham then referred to the memorandum written by Joseph E. Wulchet, a clerk of the Connecti cut association, to Eyanson, showing that Wulchet apparently had knowledge of the secret sessions of the senate finance committee. The memorandum related that Wulchet told arms manufacturers of the position of senators on the com mittee on certain tariffs. Bingham said all the rates of the bill had been made rubllo when Wulchet wrote the mtmoranduni. An for Wulchet's pretensions of knowledge of the positions of senators on the rate.

When Bingham concluded both Blaine and Caraway asked recog nition. Blaine took the floor. By this time nearly every seat In the chamber was taken and house members, cnpltol officials and clerks crowded the chairs and dl vans In the rear. Asserting 44 Increases In rates on Connecticut products had been proposed, meaning an increase to Connecticut alone of $878,000,000, the WlscoiiKin senator sold: 'Those rates were transported down the slimy, dirty trial thnt led from the office of the senator from Connecticut to the office of the Connecticut Manufacturers' nsaorl- tlon, and then down to the room of the committee on finance. Every one of those Items comes to us tainted." Jlialnn argued the employment of Kyanson was "conceived In secrecy and conducted In secrecy." K arson was on three oavrolls." he shouted, "ostensibly aa clerk to the committee on territories, osten sibly as rlerk to the senator from onnectlcut, but in fact an employee of the Connecticut Manufacturers' association." He added BliiKham hnd tilaced upon Kyanson "an official clonk that would permit him to go into the secret sessions of the finance committee." LOS ANGELES, Oct, . 2.

Her screams attracted police of ficers who placed Pantages under arrest when she pointed st him and said: "That's the beast."

I'lio trial started October 8 In the same court room In which Pantages' wife, Mrs. Lois Pan-tages, had been convicted of manslaughter lees than two weeks before. She wsa found responsible for the automobile death of Juro Hokumoto, Japanese gardener. Her request for probation will be heard November 8. BIG CROWDS AT TRIAL. Pantages' trial for the assault on tha young dancer drew the greatest crowds Los Angeles courts have known since William Edward Hickman waa convicted of the murder of Marlon Parker.

It charged, Pantages made violent love to Miss Pringle and finally assaulted her after she fainted while fighting off his ad vances. The high light of the state's case brought Mlsa Pringle to the stand A quiet-spoken, demure looking girt, she told a forceful story of what went en in the conference room. She held that Pantages first told her he Intended to book her art on his vaudeville circuit. Then, sho said, he told her he loved her. and that lie hated his own wife. "I told him to be a gentleman," Miss Pringle testified, "but Instead he clamped hla hand over my mouth and started to attack me." fihe went Into a vivid descrlp tlon, Its details unprintable, of a horrible experience. Ginis clothes torn. Other witnesses then told of how she ran from the room screaming hysterically. Her clothes were torn they said, and she bore every evidence of having been assaulted.

He was 'as polite as possible" In warding off her attack and In forcing her from the room, he Mild. Pantages called witnesses to vr-Ify tils version and he also-called witnesses to testify that'Mlss Pringle engaged In a Conversation In which she Intimated she Intended to "make Pantages aorry If he dldn t give me a Job."
