CONGRESS CONTEST HALTED-
Sudden Adjournment of York-Adams
Hearings at Gettysburg Supposed
to Mean Collapse
Gettysburg, Feb. 4.—Congressman
Brodtbeck sprang a surprise here yester
day afternoon, when he had the hear
ing in his election contest against Con
gressman C. William Beales- abruptly
adjourned. Thirty of those subitoenaed ;
as witnesses in his behalf in Gettysburg |
are vet to he heard.
While the Congressman denied that j
this action was preliminary to with- j
drawal of the contest, rumors persist .
that this is about to occur. To some
prominent Adams county Democrats
with whom he conferred yesterday !
Brodbeck said that he had 'been misin- i
formed about conditions there, but he j
stated that his present purpose is to i
hold more hearings both in Gettysburg :
and York.
Charles H. Wilson, the Adams county i
detective, who recently swore out a
warrant for the arrest of Congressman
Brodbeck, charging him with having
given money to a federal employe in
the Hanover postoflice, in violation of
the criminal code, was a witness yes
terday. He admitted under questioning
of counsel for the contestant that he
had no personal knowledge of the crime
he charged, but hail brought the prose
cution on information fiynished him by
counsel for Beales.
Harry Brumbaugh, the Democratic
tax oollector of Gettysburg, testified
that Robert C. Miller, Republican coun
ty chairman, had paid the poll taxes
of 110 votes, both Republicans and
Democrats. Miller was called and ad
mitted that lie jvaid some poll taxes,
but said it was done as an accommoda
tion to the collector as well as the
voters durinl? a rush of men to qualify
to cast ballots. Some of them, Miller
said, had later reimbursed him.
Frank Penn, Republican inspector at I
the Third ward polls, declared he saw I
nothing of the bottled beer said to have |
been brought to the polls in Hour sacks
on election day for the board.
Dave Wilson, a negro witness, gave
the <big crowd assembled in the court
house for the hearing a laugh when he
demanded his pay before testifying. He
was handed the 85 cents and glanced
at it scornfully. "I's a s2*a-day man,
I is," he protested.
He was told that Congress had fixed
that pay for an election contest wit
ness.
"Den I yields to Congress," he said
grudgingly, and took the stand.
