FOR CENTRE HURON, WHO PREFERRED THE CHARGES. of his interview with Mr. Taylor re garding the settlement of the claim. The Premier's statement was received in profound silence and. only when he declared that he told Mr. Taylor it would be useless to try to - n of imtimi- a date -him was there any sign ap- plause. -Referring to his interview with Air. Taylor, Sir James said that about three years ago, he could not fix the time. Alr. Taylor called on hint and said he had a claim against the Government. "I am not sure whether he told me what it was but that the Government did not seem inclined to pay it, that he was en- titled to better treatment for what he bad done and mentioned the fact that he had given Mr. Hanna a subscrip- tion to an election fund previous to the election of 1908. He gt'ew quite warm over the statement of what he called ifs wrongs so much so that I interrupted him and told hire that what he was saying sounded very much intimidation and that it would be useless for him to try to intimidate me. He then went away." In 1911 Taylor, Scott & Co., contractors for the Central Prison labor and power i•Preived from the Goverumelt $21;088 in consideration for to 350,- 000 claim. 38.000 is intimated as the amount of the firm's contribution to the Conservative election fund.
