(iNSAn intl mate, close-up picture the nomina tion of Warren O. Harding for the presidency In 1920 by one who tat In the conference "In the little smoke filled room" In the Congress hotel In Chicago was given the senate lobby Investigating committee today.

The member of that historic conference was JosephT R. Orundy, whose lobbying activities in favor of higher tariff rates have had htm on the witness stand her for several days. Orundy was there piat night In Chicago and under Insistent questioning from senators today gave his version of It. Denies Prnrme Strong. Orundy denied the somewhat popular theory that the late Boies Penrose "dictated" the nomination of Harding from his sick-bed In Philadelphia.

On the other hand, he gave the late Senator Henry Cabot Lodge credit for proposing Harding's name to the gathering In the hotel. Orundy listed the conferees as George Harvey, late ambassador to England; Senator James E. Watson of Indiana; Senator Reed Smoot of Utah; the late senator Medill McCormlck of Illinois; the late Senator Frank Bran-degee of Connecticut; former Senator James W. Wadsworth and former Senator William R. Calder of New York, and himself.

"Was King there?" referring to the late John T. King, national committeeman from Connecticut, and one of Penrose's lieutenants. "No." "You and Harvey were the only men there not senators?" "Yes." "Why were you so honored?" "Only because I came from Pennsylvania." "Did they know you were accustomed to raising larga funds?" "They didn't mention It." "What was the business of this conference?" Lowden Not Wanted. Well, Senator Lodge opened the proceedings and stated that as the presiding officer of the convention he had watched the proceedings with great Interest," said Orundy. "He said he had come there In the interest of Leonard Wood, and developments around the convention bad convinced him that the nomination of Leonard Wood would be ill-advised.

He said he felt the nomination of Governor Frank O. Lowden would likewise be Ill-advised." "That was because they had put up and spent too much money?" "Because their friends had," replied Orundy. "That was Friday evening and It had been a hot week. There had been a lot of balloting and the delegates were tired. Their money was nearly run out and Senator Lodge said he doubted whether he could hold them there over Sunday.

He said an effort must be made that evening to agree on a candidate. In looking th nlrttire over. he said, he was satisfied that the most available man was Senator Harding. He said that the question whether Senator Harding's friends had spent a lot of money had not been raised and wasn't an Issue and so could be Ignored. "Senator Lodpe recalled thnt no Republican had ever been elected president without the vote of the state of Ohio.

He pointed out that It looked like Governor Cox of Ohio would be the Democratic nominee and that It was especially Important that the vote of Ohio should be secured. For thp.se reasons and divers others, he said, we ought to go out nnd brlnu about the nomination of Senator Harding the following Ratiirdny morning. "So we did N. Y.
