The Chairman said is Henderson's recall was futn,d ueceesary, he could be recalled, Senator Vidal asked witness if Ilen- der::nn spoke seriously. Witness -Ile was serious, but he thnigllt it a good joke to get the $100, Q. Yon understood he was tellingtlle truth ? A. Yes, he said he had got the S100, and he showed' it to me. 1 said if Oliver had given him ,a cheque he might have refused to pay it after wards, but Henderson said he would not be satisfied with 1668 di: an cash. Ile then took the bills out of his pocket and showed them to me. I said -"1 am almost sorry yott have elope that, because it [night iufleence your evi- dence," I said -''Tell the truth any- how." "Yes," said Ile, "if he had ,S,1ven me a $1,000 it would not have changed me. I will swear the Halite still." That ended the couversation. He dill not say anything to me about expect- ing any further payment. Senator Atkins asked to put in a 11e. nial to the statement of i1r. Leys that Stratton was his nephew. The denial was accepted.
