Senator Hiram Bingham of Connecticut faced a likely censure in the Senate after Norris charged him with improper employment of Charles Evanson of the Connecticut Manufacturers Association as his secretary and tariff expert. Bingham defended his motives, insisting no public funds were misused and arguing his actions served a protective tariff goal for his constituents.
