CAPONE STORY WAS CORRECT, SAYS WRITER (Continued from Page One.) attributed to him that he has "plenty of Chicago newspapermen on his payroll," and that he and Chicago police knew who killed Jake Lingle, Chicago reporter. Capone elaborated at length in a dictated statement on the points at his home Palm Island, Miami Beach, last night, when he was questioned regarding a copyrighted story published by the St.

Louis Star yesterday and written by Harry Brundidge. Brundidge quoted Capone as telling him, during an interview, that he and the police knew who killed Lingle, that he had Chicago newspapermen on his payroll, and that he gave Lingle a diamond belt buckle. "If he trying to build his reputation what he thinks I said, and not the truth, he deliberate liar," Capone asserted. "I defy him to say that these statements he has made are true. I will face him before any grand jury and deny them to his face." He referred to the portions of Brundidge's story having to do with the Lingle assassination and the newspapermen's payroll.

Admits Giving Belt Buckle. "It is the truth when he sa said I gave Lingle a diamond belt buckle," Capone said. "Lingle was a dear friend of mine. The buckle was a Christmas present and I gave it to him as a Christmas present and not for any service he had rendered me as a a newspaperman." Brundidge Capone for approximately 10 minutes recently, the former gang lord said. He continued that Brundidge asked him if he ever had paid money to newspapermen and that he had replied that he had, but that if he had he wouldn't tell the reporter about it.

"I told him I was through with the racket in Chicago and didn't care to be mixed up in it one way or another," he said. During the conversation, Capone said, Brundidge several times attempted unsuccessfully to turn the course of conversation to shootings in Chicago, and eventually proposed to write a story of Capone's home life. The latter proposal was refused, Capone said. "All he is trying to do is to build up a reputation by faking stories on a so-called interview he had with me, the facts of which I have just mentioned," Capone went on. Denies McCormick Campaign.

Capone also denied published reports that he had contributed to the senatorial nomination campaign of Ruth Hanna McCormick of Illinois, but added that he would have been glad to contribute had he been approached.

Gonzalez, which affidavit charged Hidalgo with selling a still and then raiding it, seizing it, and selling it again, even unto the third time. "Happy Jack" only made such an affidavit, Hidalgo explained. "because he wanted get even with me for trying to catch his brother, 'Choo Choo'." Hidalgo Has Busy Day.

It was a busy day for Hidalgo, with all the explaining he was called on to do. There was only one thing he was not called upon to explain. He was not asked why he had misinformed the governor two weeks ago, about a supposed illness in his family that made it impossible to hold a hearing at that time. The governor did not ask him about this. Other charges that Hidalgo explained were based on affidavits from bootleggers and moonshiners and from one Hamp Smith, who.

cheerfully affirmed that he was Hidalgo's partner in crime, and aided in the collection of graft, Blames Bootleggers. "All these bootleggers want me out of office," said the constable, "because I enforce the law so zealously. They want to get rid of me." One affidavit by Hamp Smith swore that it was Hidalgo who wanted to get rid of a bootlegger. The bootlegger was O. H.

Holloway, said Hamp, who ran a still in the Rocky Creek district, and when raided by Hidalgo and Hamp, was assessed $100. He only paid $25, times being what they were. He then went down and made an affidavit anent. Hidalgo's grafting proclivities. This, swore Hamp.

angered Hidalgo. "He came to me," Hamp's affidavit ran, "and said he was going to kill Holloway--that he would shoot himself in the arm, and would then shoot Holloway, and claim that Holloway had shot him first. I told Hidalgo he was crazy -that if he shot himself in the arm would show that he did it because of the powder burns from he would let shoot him in the such a close shot. Then he said arm." Hamp Smith declined the opportunity, he said, and the scheme fell through. Says Liquor "Planted." Another time, they decided to get even with Holloway by "planting" some liquor in his truck.

Hamp said they went to the Straw Hat cafe, on North Willow avenue, and "borrowed" a gallon of moonshine. That very night, they had chance, he said, and planted the liquor, but that scheme also fell through, largely because another man, named Glass -he had his driving wife and truck, kids and with him- wasn't was right to send Glass to jail." The whole narrative of the affidavits was a pretty story of official corruption, told against one alleged scamp by coterie of others, most of whom confessed they were tarred with the same brush. Governor Dissatisfied. "For that reason," said Governor Carlton, "I am not satisfied with the affidavits. I am going to ask the grand jury to investigate them further.

I will also make a further investigation myself." The hearing before the governor yesterday, the brought, Peace besides A. D. Hidalgo, Lopez, who had been charged with habitual drunkenness. Lopez, sented by Attorney W. H.

Jackson, repredenied the charges; and Jackson pointed out that the charges were apparently a "counter barrage" brought by Hidalgo, after the charges against Hidalgo had been made. In support of which theory, Jackson pointed to the affidavits themselves, most of which had been notarized by Luis Milian, who now shares an office in West Tampa with Hidalgo. The governor referred these charges also to the grand jury for further investigation. Mansker Home Acquired By Mr. and Mrs.

NORRIS' NAMESAKE Groceryman Cannot Enter as Senate Candidate.

By The Associated Press Lincoln, July W. Norris, the insurgent republican leader in the United States senate, has won out over George W. Norris, the grocery man from Broken Bow. Reversing the decision of Secretary of State Frank Marsh, Chief Justice Charles A. Goss of the state supreme court ruled last night that the grocer's name should not appear on the republican ballot for United States senator in the August 12 primary as his filing did not reach the secretary of state's office until two days after the time limit had expired.

Investigation to Open. The barring of the grocer had no effect, however, on the decision of Senator Gerald P. Nye, chairman of the senate's campaign investigation committee, to inquire into the of the Broken Bow man's name. Senator Nye has summoned witnesses for the opening of the inquiry this morning in Broken Bow. Norris the grocer was missing, however, but Nye's investigators were looking for him in three states with subpoenas.

"I could not see how any other ruling could be made," Senator Nye said. "However, I will carry my investigation through to a finish. We will find out just what were the reasons for the filing of the Broken Bow man in the race under exactly the same name as that of the present senator." Attorney General C. A. Sorensen, close associate of Senator Norris, said the Nye investigation was accentuated by the disappearance of the Broken Bow man the day after his filing was mailed.

Petition Mailed in Time. The groceryman's petition, mailed July 2, reached Lincoln too late for delivery the next day--the time limit expiration date. Due to the July 4 holiday, the papers did not reach Marsh's office until July 5. Marsh approved the petition but the chief justice's ruling further appeal. Three candidates are in the race; Senator Norris, State Treasurer W.

Stebbins and Aaron Read, of Madison. Senator Norris' friends said he had accepted the ruling and had abandoned his plans of running as an independent.
