STATE SENATOR GRAuAM's CAsE.-Tbe Sen
ate Committee on Privileges and Elections
was engaged yesterday afternoon 10 the con-
sideratiou Of the case Of Senator George W.
Graham.
Mr.. Boiling, counsel for MIR. Graham,
stated that he had been to Petersburg and
seen Mr.. Max Marshall, who positively de.
ciined to come over to testify. MIR. Marshall
also said that his testimony before the CON-
mittee would hardly be regarded with any
weight, as he was greatly prGjudiced against
Mr.. StoWell.
The committee decided that Mr.. Marshalrs
testimony was not necessary they therefore
agreed not TO send for him.
The question of the admission of Mr.. Gra-
banl's statement to the effect that the printed
record of the case before the Naval Commit
tee was correct as far as it went, was dis
cussed Mt some length by Messrs. Boiling
and Wise, who claimed that at the time this
statement of Mr.. Graham was made he said
that it was true as far as it went, but that he
also stated in connection with the admission
that material papers were missing which
would alter the whole phase OF the case, but
that he would make an effort to get them
supplied from Washington.
Several members of the committee re-
membered 10 have heard him make the adj
mission, and also TO say something about
making an effort to get certain papers; but
they had no recollection Of his having said
anything about these papers altering the
whole phase IF the case. The question Was
then discussed whether the printed evidence
should be allowed to 90 to the Senate IS
competent and legal evidence. 4 vote being
taken the committee stood as follows: In
favor of admitting, Messrs. Penn, McRae
Finney. and Ragland; against, MessTs. SMITH
of Nelson, L2ckland, Quesenberry, and Rue
Mr.. Smith Of Nelson presented a state
ment of his recollection of what MIR. Ora
ham had Sad-viZ., that what was in the
printed record was true as far as it went, bu
that important papers sand letters were absenl
or missing which would alter the whole
phase of the case.
After some further discussion the commit
tee rose to meet again and to agree upon for
NAL reports.
