Story of the Great Bribery Plot
Second Installment.
Q. Now when you met Mr. Polcar this
second time was there anything outlined
as to your operations? A. He gave mo
a detailed list of men and women; a
long list of officeholders; a general
synopsis of people connected with the fac
tion that he was after.
Q. That was the one that was assumed
to be headed by Mr. Dennlson? A. -Yes,
sir.
Q. Was anything said about Mr. Lynch
In this Interview? A. Yes, sir; he in
formed me, after giving me a detailed
statement, which was made the subject
of a long report, and I wish I had It here,
that the wife of a commissioner; I don't
know as It Is necessary to mention the
name; the wife of a commissioner was
supposed to have some written evidence
of the collections from the underworld,
which had been made by Mr. Dennlson
and Mr. Lynch and Mr. Loch; the wife
of this commissioner had stated that they
had met at the home of Mr. Lynch or
at the home of Mr. Loch, these three
men, and divided up tho tribute col
lected from the underworld, at stated In
tervals, once a month, and discussed the
protection of certain gambling houses
and saloons; and he was advised that
this commissioner's wife had written evi
dence of that, and he- wanted a man sent
here who eould buy wine, get In with
Mrs. Loch and Mrs. Lynch, get them
drunk, and debauch them, if necessary,
and obtain the evidence.
Q. Was any of that work assigned to
you? A. I told him that I would not do
it, and in my capacity aa salesman for
the burner I could not do It; and I so
reported to the agency, and another man
waa sent for that purpose.

Who is the Liar?
Detective Pickard Writes an Open Lottpr Ohallonging Produc
tion of His Reports that Prove His Statements Under Oath.
OMAHA, July 18. Mr. Joseph I'olcnr, Kdttor lcr Sir: In n
signed article published In your paper you charge me with the uttonuico
of a fnlse statement ngninst you while tinder onth nt my hearing before
Judge Ilrltt on Friday, July 17, 11)14. If your signed article I true,
then, as you assert, 1 ant guilty of perjury. If your signed article Is mifl
true, you are guilty of libel.
Xow, Mr. Polcnr, I will meet you beforo a committee of ministers,
junges or nusinrss men or nte city or
committee, If you will produce the reports written to the Hums Agency
by K. Ti. Bernard signed "Investigator No. U-Ol," which reports 1 wllj
prove were mailed to you by the Burns Agency at our request and paid
for by Kdltor-ln-Chlef CWver of Minneapolis. Thee reports, together
with expense statement attached of auto hire nnd bills for entertainment,
are also In the possession of the Hums Agency.
If that committee on reading these report doc not admit the truth
of my statement on the wltnes stand "that, you requested the mtvIccs of
an operative to persne the methods outlined with these two unfortunate,
women, whom you brought Into this case, and If they do not admit that
K. Ij. Bernard, Investigator from New York office of the William J. Burns'
Agency, handled this dirty work for you, I will go before the judge of your
criminal court and plead guilty to the rharge of perjury.
.Mr. Polcar, you state In this signed article that I demanded $,i00
from you. I will prove to thin committee that that statement Is false, but
I did demand $2,B00 from the Burns Agency to pay the eyponso of my
defense, and ant now bringing snlt against the Burns' Agency for thnt
amount.
Mr. Polcar, you appeal to the people, your renders, nnd nk them to
lelleve you, the editor of a great paper, nnd to discredit me, becnuse 1
was humiliated by nn unjust nr rest. When I was arrested you stated In
the Dally News that you had no knowledge of the presence of Burns' op
erative In Omnha. WAS THAT TRl'K? Why did you not admit that
yon had hired this service from William J. Burns. You hnve said many
time that you never Instructed an oKratlve to offer a bribe, yet Mr. Han
son in hi testimony nt the hearing of July 18 before Judge Britt states'
that you did Instruct him to offer a bribe of to Mr. Wolfe. Who Is
telling the truth, you or Mr. Hanson?
When I whs back In Omaha in chains, as you stxy, your paper de
fended ino beforo the people for two days, but when 1 refused to be ex
plotted or permit Woodrough, the Daily News attorney, to conduct my de
fense because ho Represented your Interests and not mine, when I de
manded tha the Bums' Agency furnish me money nnd attorney of my'
own selection, not your, you published n scurrilous front page article
charging me with helping to frame up with whnt you designate as the.
Third ward gang. The charge is absolutely fnlse, but It seems to bo your
theory that if the Dally Now docs not own a man nnd control him, the
enomle of the New must own and control him.
You wrote falsely when yon chnrged me with a frnme-up, but you
certainly surrendered me In open court, without bond, iu nccordnneo with
agreement and frnme-up between you nnd the Hums' Agency, n arranged
over the long distance telephone between you and John A. Oustaf.son, their
Kansas City manager, unless I submitted to your dictation and control.
Mr. Polcar, the records of Jackson county, Missouri, show that I mort
gaged my home to pay the expense of my trial, nnd my personnl nttomoy,
T. J. Madden, In Kansas City, conducted that defense. Krom the date of
my arrest I Insisted that when placed upon the wltnoss stand I would by
telling the truth show thatvmy connection with this Omaha operation was
d"" MJ ate nnd testimony
was nnjustly arrested and -.honorably
Now you cringe nnd whimper because you could not prevent my toll
ing tho truth and beg the public to believe you.
Name a committee of as mnny men as you desire and produce the
report of K. I. Bernard, Frank M. Piclcard and T. .1. Hanson, and justify,
Jf yon can, your plea to the public for credence. If you do not do this C
can produce some of them for you.

Women with Novel
Way of Dispensing
Beer Are Both Fined
In two raids Sunday the Omaha police
found novel ways of concealing and cool
ing beer when they searched the house
occupied by Emma Glvens, 3K!2 Charles
street, and It. Toly. SOS North K'Rhtcenth
street.
At the Poly residence, according to Spe
cial Officer Williams, beer was concealed
In an Innocent appearing washboller,
while benenth a sack lying on the floor
they found a miniature cellar where the
empty bottles were stored. The weight
used to hold a quantity of pickles in the
brine proved to be a Jug of whisky. Poly
was fined $40 and costs on a charge of
keeping a disorderly house.
When officers appronched the home of
Emma Glvens at 2022 Charles street they
found a sign on the front door, "Go to
the back door."
The officers did.
They found a number of colored women
drinking beer, and upon searching the
premises discovered a keg of beer on tap
In a garbage can in the cellar, and at
tached to the keg a regulation beer pum.
Emma Glvens explained In police court
that the beer had been bought for a fish
ing party and that when the "boys"
didn't show up the girls decided to drink
the beer. Judge Foster apparently doubted
the fishing story and fined the women
J50 and costs on the charge of keeping a
disorderly house.
as Told by Pickard
puny never paid a cent for anything.
Q. Not even the lent of your office?
A. No, sir.
Q. How long did Mr. Crowe, the oper
ator, continue here? A. -He came here
along about tho 20th of January and
stayei until I left In May and closed up
the office.
Q. Now at the time you say that Mr.
Polcar wanted sonio one to come here to
take out a certain woman and debach
her. If necessary; who wns sent here to
tin inai nuiT a. h.. i.. Hernard.
Q And how soon after that demand
was made? A. -Well. I believe they told
me he waa In New York; It was about a
week after my report got In before Bern
ard arrived.
Q. And he came here for that purpose?
A. Yes, air.
Q. He waa employed to meet the la
dles? A. He was here to get the written
evidence supposed to be In the hands of
the commissioner's wife, for Mr. Polcar.
Q. You do not know whether he ever
got It or not, got any evidence. A. I do
not.
Q. Now how often did you make re

RAPS IDEA THAT SIN IS
NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT
The Idea that sin is nothing to worry
about was severely rapped by Rev.
Charles E. Raskervllle In his sermon Sun
day morning at the First Presbyterian
church. He Is vice president of Rellevuo
college, and preached In the place of the
pastor. Rev. Edwin Hart .Tenks, who is
spending his vacation with his sons, Ches
ter and Hart, on their homesteads In
Canada.
"All people are sinners," Rev Mr. Baa
kervllle declared. "No one can stand
beforo God uncondemned by conscience.
Sin, Instead of being an Inconsequential
thing that can easily be glossed over. Is
really the one thing In the way of man's
highest felicity. Every person Is account
able to God. the Maker, and the only es
cape from the consequences of sin Is re
pentance. '

Gustafson; 1 don't know; I sent them to

use them In his own way when he saw
fit.
Q. Was lie engaged by you personally?
A. Never engaged by me In the world.
Q. You were nsked by the Burns
agency to use him? A I was not. I was
Instructed that when I reached Omaha, a
man would meet rcre by tho name of
Woodrough, whom I afterwards found to
be the attorney for the Dally News,
