Morton Stands by Spencer.

WASHINGTON, March 20.-The Senate COM
mitiee on privileges and elections, finding
that the evidence against Senator Spencer
was positively proving the most corrupt and
disreputabe means that could have been con-
ceived to secure his election to the Senate, re-
solved To-day, after secret consultation, to ex-
elude all the convincing and damaging tesii-
mony, and the witnesses by whom the frauds
had been established were discharged In
their place the republican members of the
committee have agreed to permit Spencer to
summon a dozen of his Alabama strikers to dis
prove nothing, as the committee refused TO
admit corroborated testimony. The country
will have its opinion of the conduct of the re-
publican members of this committee, tie chair
man Of which is Oliver P Morton, and against
whom the charge is made OF getting willing
tools to blacken and smirch the character Of
Secretary Bristow, in the hope Of defeating
him thereby for the presidential nomiHation.
Honest republicans turned away from the pro-
ceedings of the senate committee on privileges
and elections to-day as they would from pest
house. 'sCan such band of brothers afford
to divide their influence or weaken their
power now?' asked a elong republican as
he loathingly left the committee room.
