'Address, F. A. Stuart Co., 406 Stuart Bldg., Matshan, Mich. An Associated Press correspon dent said: "The special committee of the house appointed last summer to investigate Senator Gore's charges of attempted bribery in connection with J. W. McMurray's Indian at torney contracts in Oklahoma, made its final report to the house tonight. The majority of the committee finds that Jake L. Hamon actually 'did, about May 6, 1909, make an im proper proposal to Senator Gore re specting the McMurray contracts and that about June 16, 1910, he approached Representative Charles F. Creager with an improper propo sition on the same subject. The committee finds no evidence, how ever, to show that Hamon was act ing by authority of or with the con sent of McMurray.' On this ground the committee exonerates McMur ray from any connection with an at tempt improperly to influence mem bers of the house or senate. It finds, however, that he used more than 'undue influence' to secure the sup port of Chief Green McCurtain and his son, D. C. McCurtain, in getting these contracts by transferring a contingent interest of $25,000 in the contracts to D. C. McCurtain."
