Hud sep Lold the Puu Mission that would divulge it without i Eju die in they considered such a course proper. However it might drove very injurious to or. Kelly in any subsequent action taken against Holni. The after conferring with tie other commissioners stated Miat he would give a. Rilling on the Point at a later hour. Or. Justice gait said it was a serious question for them to give a ruling on Ott . The chairman stated that so far As he was concerned personally. He thought that Only or. Kelly could aay whether objections would be waived with regard to a confidential discussion of that nature. Afternoon session. At the afternoon sitting judge Perdue stated that the co Mislon had considered the question of allowing or. Hudson to reveal what or. Kelly s counsel had said in discussion at the Mani Toba club referred to at the morning sitting. The Comra Issi ii had decided that the conver Salloh was a matter of Privily pro and that it should be left Over until or. Kelly or. His representative was present to discuss it. Or. Hudson said that or. Ship Pron had stated that the continuation of the Mathers commission would prejudice his client Kelly and that for that reason he desired to have the Comini Sion desist at once. No Promise of immunity from criminal prosecution said or. Hudson of any kind whatsoever had been made to i any person in connection with the whole affair. Or. Hudson added that in one of the first conversations he had with or. A Hippen the lat Ter told him he was acting solely for Kelly but that the government would resign whenever homr. Phippen Thorn to do so. Explaining what took place at a i conference Between hims Cli t. H. I Johnson and two others neither of a whoa was a member of the Bench held in his office on Friday. May 7 Imp. Hudson said the question was j i whether the Mathers com i Mission had any Power to order the i return of any moneys or to Puri h any person for i criminal offence Din ins a part of this discussion Norris had i Cen present. Jarl ship pen s objection to the commission on the score of constitutionality had also Ben discussed. Previous in or. Wil son had Uyi cased the View that there was not much in the Point. Or. Hudson had Ben disposed to regard the matter More seriously than or. Talked Over Law suit again is Kelly. The question of a Law suit against Kely had been discussed. It had seemed to him that by Means of an 6xa.minatiqn for discovery in a civil suit they be Able to ascertain All the facts within Kelly s know ledge without being hampered by constitutional difficulties. With the Liberal party in Power they would have had control of the machinery of the departments and would be Able to ascertain Many facts which could not be obtained from Kelly by Means of an examination. Or. Hudson said the position at that time was that he had made very serious charges in the legislature. To had Felt a Burden upon him to establish those charges. They had Felt that if any such arrangement As proposed was to be out an admission from the government to the effect hat what he said in the legislature was substantially Correct would be necessary. Then they had considered the position of the Public and had realised that the Public must know Al tha facts for himself he had been handling the matter from a lawyer s standpoint much As lie would handle a Large lawsuit. Finally they had decided they could t agree to any arrangement unless the government before resign ing acknowledged that he had been Correct in what he said in lature. Further they h and decided that All facts relative to the situation must be submitted to the and that Tho commission must approve of the arrangement to suspend its labors during the procedure of a civil suit. Did not discuss majority. In answer to or. There was no discussion As to How the Liberal party might secure a. Majority in the House i never heard of that until or. Norris told me of having had a discussion with sir at this Point or. Hudson mention led a meeting Between himself and Phi Penin his or. Hudson a office. Or. Phippen had produced a i proposed form 61 resignation for the some discussion Wlllie regard to it or. Phil upon had g ji.6 ii Way and later Utu used wit i a Sliwi of paper on wan the following draft res i fion on investigation or. Hudson appear to Hava had substantial justification for the statements of fact made by him within the House and id tiu1 is Cou i Stith tonally responsible the a 1 Tion of employees of the government this document or. produced in spurt he stated that it had been satisfactory to him. Hudson stated i it had been decided to obtain the vice of chief Justice Howell on the i matter be be Iii an old Friend both i of himself and Mph Ippen the latter and himself had visited the chief Justice at his House. All the s facts had been placed before him. I the idea then had been that the ii at cirs commission should make an. Interim report and Liat after the s add Mission had been a lawsuit should be commenced. There had been no Promise of inn Unity anyone whatsoever. The Burden of tile govern m end s Adonis Pfoh if r tilt had been placed on or. Phipp ii. Highly proper Arranger nent chief Justice Howell. Said or. Guilson had considered Fie ment a if Fly i Roner Oue. In the opinion of chief Justice there Riff it have been some hardship of Kelly if the Mathers had continued to sit the go Vermir Trtanj had proceeded at the Hurne time to enforce rights civil or Crini Inal As Yaj list Kelly. The advantage to Kelly had been that he would have to Iii it lawsuit instead of chief Justice Howell had considered the arrangement fair Paul honest Bot ii to the Public and to Kelly. The chief Justice had stated that it was a scat Vidio Ilion for him or. Hudson to not Fror the such a admission As was proposed. Elliher j voluntarily or on the suggestion of j or. Phippen the Chiel Justice a j. Agreed t o see the chairman of the. I l Fayal commission in regard to the i matter. I in the evening May a or. Phippen had told him that thu had agreed to the required . But added that he had a very time in persuading to fall in the re . With the " Over Ament there had been no difficulty at All. Liter that evening said or. Hud son he had met Norris and Johnson. The former had told him he had had a conversation with pre Mier Roblin who had said the government was Roiner to resign Asaf fairs hid got into a very bad mess from which the government could not disentangle sir Rod mild had admitted that what he or. Hudson had said in. The House was or. Norris had told him Liat sir Rodmund had said to him that All the members of the Troy i Ament were going to design their seats and that he thought other members of the House would also re sign. Sir Redmond. Or. Norris had said had to him that in that Way the new government could get a majority in the House without holding a general election. Sir Rod Nion a he said had advised him to take that course As a general elec Tion would leave the govern ment without any real position. Or. Hudson stated that or. Norria told him lie had not agreed to sir Rodmund s proposal hut had prom ised to consider it. Or. Norris at that time had known that the government was to plead re sign. Commission not to discontinue. Ordinor the Mathers Commir Bioti ski Hudson stated that it had not been proposed that its labors should cease except for the time being. Even if a were to be started against Kelly there might be some things outstanding with which the Mathers commission could Deal. The use of the term interim report showed that the discontinuance of the commission was not contemplated. Or. Wilson had prepared a statement to be read before the commission before it adjourned for a. Week. Asked by or. Fullerton what the effect of the government s admission was or. Hudson replied that if a. Man pleaded guilty it cleared the Issue and shortened the inquiry. If he were a commissioner such an admission As the government s would make a great difference in Many things he would otherwise insist or. You have any conference at any time with the lieutenant governor in reference to the resignation of the or. None but i had a conversation with the lieutenant governor in regard to the ment of the commission but not in regard to the composition of the commission. I had no conversation with the lieutenant governor with reference to any matter relevant to the charges before this commission at any official record proper evidence at this Point or. Fulerton Drc fired to Yomine or. Hudson wit ii regard it a report in the Winnipeg trib Jne of a certain sitting of the Mathers commission. Or. Elt Blado immediately objected pointing but that the stenographic report of the sittings of the Mathers commission was available. The Point was repeatedly pressed by or. Fullerton. He said he wished to show from the newspaper in ques. Tion that an attempt to have the Mathers commission adjourn had ended in a it had t been a real adjournment. Judge Perdue and judge Robson insisted that As to the proceedings of the Mathers commission the official record was the proper evidence to produce. Or. Fullerton still persisted. He contended he said that it was Public opinion which forced the Mathers commission to proceed. He wished to read also an editorial in the Winnipeg Tribune. Or. Pitblado Are we investigating rumours i thought certain specific charges had been finally Fri Fullerton showed the editorial in question to or. Hudson and asked him to read it. Or. Hud son on looking at the copy of the paper said lie t read the edit orial. He had been too Busy to do pc o. take Strong ground. Proceeding in his evidence or. Hudson stated that a caucus of the opposition had been held on tues Day night May 11. Or. Norris had told them of sir Redmond s Sugges Tion. There had been considerable difference of opinion As to the Wisest course to follow. Several members hv1. Taken very Strong ground unit the arrangement was not a course to take. They had considered that eve Miyone had a right to exercise his franchise in connection with a situation such Fly had Arisen and that there ought to be a general election. No decision had been reached that night. Or. Norris had told the caucus that there was nothing in. The Conversi ton with sir Rodmond which him or the party. It had been a five and open offer on the part of the r Oblin if the opposition cared to accept it. Or. Fulle Luu ".mr. Phippen was a pretty astute lawyer defending or. Hudson he said he or. Fullerton do you suggest that or. Phippen brought about the resignation of the old government simply for the purpose of Savins a civil suit with the commission run not getting anything. Or. Hudson or. Phippen to me on the monday that it a very poor bargain and that he was getting nothing. As a matter of fact he was setting ill. Hudson went on to say that the conditions of the arrangement were not complied with by the Date government. The attorney general produced in court the actual letter of resignation submitted by sir mond Koblin. Tho letter however not in accordance with the form drafted by or. Phippen and no proved by himself. The text of the letter Hibib Whitted by or. Hudson read As follows in View of information gathered within the last few weeks by the Public works department and state ments made by sex judge Phippen be fore the Royal commission there in now no doubt that or. A. B. Hudson had substantial justification for the statements regarding overpayment etc., in connection with the erection of the new parliament building. Tin government Beinar co responsible for the actions of their officials in matters of Inis ion., i feel that it is incumbent upon to Reslyn my position us this province which. I now do and would respectfully or. T. C. Norris . Leeiii a of the opposition lie called tip ii 10 form a new in that letter said or. Hudson tie conditions Arnu Igod with or. A Hoij pen been Only partially complied with. The phrase was used sub Stantial Justitz cation for the state ments regarding in the form agreed upon the wording covered All the statements of facts he had brought Forward in uie legis lature. Letter did not cover charges. Or. Hudson admitted that when first he saw the letter in or. An Drew s office he had not noticed any serious discrepancy. But when on the following Day or. Wilson and he had sat Down to work out what should be said to the commission when it met on the monday or. Wil son had said that the letter did t cover the arrangement All. They had then taken the memorandum from the vault and compared it with speech in the legislature. Or. Wilson had then become quite con Vinced that the proposed letter did t Coyer the charges in the speech and that it would be impossible to base any statement to the commission up on it. Or. Substantial difference is there Between the let Ter and the no admission on Salt or. Difference that they pleaded guilty to some things but not others the absence of or. Salt was dealt with in my speech and this was perhaps the most Start Ling part of this inquiry. There was no admission that Salt was being kept away for the purpose of sup pressing his or. That the letter of resignation had been in exact terms you approved of what Dif Ferent effect would it have had upon the work of the or. The conditions had been complied with the work of the commission would have ceased unless something transpired in the lawsuit making it advisable to. new government had declined. Continuing or.

Wilson had told him that he had some Conversa Tion with chief Justice Mathers and found that there was some mis apprehension in the commission. Apparently the commission had not consented to the course suggested and was unwilling to discontinue unless the new government took the whole responsibility of such a course. The new government however bad declined to close the commission. On thursday morning May 20, at s a.m., or. Phippen having returned from new York had telephoned him asking what the trouble was. He had replied that the admission which was to Nave been made had not been made or. Phippen had said Tho Public won t notice the insinuations As to Framo up. Another feature of the situation said or. Hudson was the fact that in a certain Section of the press particularly in the East insinuations were being made As to a Frame up. Rumours were being circulated in Dif Ferent quarters As to a Money trans action. None of said or. Hud son had any knowledge Money transaction. That was a. Very disturbing thing Tome.
