Dawes. The senator referred to "Dawes, the banker," and "Dawes, the genera! of the minute men.” The speaker re viewed the history of the Lorimer bank failure, with which he associated Dawes on account of his presidency of the Central Trust company of Chi cago. Cites Hank Case. The senator stated that, when the Da Salle Street National bank de cided to change into a state bank, an announcement of $1,230,000 capital and surplus was made, which amount the senator asserted Lorimers new bank did not have in cash as re quired by law in Illinois. "On the afternoon of October 21, 1912, Dawas turned over to Dortmer's new bank the required $1,250,000,” Wheeler ’said. "The agent of the state auditor of public accounts counted it and issued a certificate authorizing Dorimer's bank to do business. Then the $1,250,000 was handed back to Dawes' Central Trust company. The part that Mr. Dawes had taken in his transaction became known when the receiver, appointed by the court, tried to find the $1, 250,000.” Calls Hawes “Kidnaper.” The Montana candidate takes issue I with General Dawes on an interprets I lion of the Illinois laws pertaining to | the issuance of injunctions by judges against labor unions or other organi zations or individuals "merely upon the filing of a bill of equity.” Wheeler stated that the enlightened opinipn of the American bar ie that no in junction should ever be issued in controversies between capital and labor.
