THE INVESTIGATION" PROGRAMME
The following programme which some of
the Republican papers published for the
Democratic investigations this week, is
very near the truth in its spirit, If not in it's
letter:
Monday, 2ith. A fresh discovery relating
to Mr.. Bristow's accepting o large fee for
defending a Government delauller.
Tuesday, 25th. Contradiction of the Bris-
tow report. The alleged culprt died be-
fore Bristow was OF age. Blaine charged
with collusion TO defraud Jacob Little.
Wednesday,, 26th. A card from Jacob Lit
ties grandson showing that Mr.. Blaine
never bad transaction with Jacob Little.
Report that General Grant drew rations
for six horses when in "the Wilderness"
aud was only entitled TO rations for three.
Investigating committee appointed.
Thursday, 27M. The Democrats have dis
covered that Grant had only two horses
with him on his great march, and never
drew rations but for two horses, and fail
ed to compute. 1t will be whispered in
the lobbies that Secretary BriStow is sup
posed TO know more than he is willing 10
10 tell about the secret history of the SYM
dictate.
Friday 2sH. 1t has been discovered that
the syndicate was formed when Mr.. Bris-
tow was practicing hlsprofession in Ken
lucky.
Saturday, 29th. A sub committee OF which
Clymer is chairman, has been appointed
TO investigate the causes which led to the
destruction of so many American flags
during the recent rebellion, and to see ii
the exposure of the standards 10 the fire
of those defending their hearthstOnes was
entirely justfiable.

Unfounded Charges against the Presi
dent.

The sensational newspapers were made
happy last week by the announcement that
immense frauds had been discovered in
the payment of money to U. S. Commits
sioner Davenport by order Of President
Grant. The Democrats even claimed that
they had at last found something which
would surely impeach the President, but
when the investigating committee found
that the trail was leading TO further de-
velopments in regard to the Tammany ring
frauds, they concluded that they were on
the wrong scent and dropped the subject.
The examination of EX-Attorney General
Williams showed that the money was
paid for the purpose Of eilec;ing registra-
ton of the voters Of New York city 10 pre-
vent frauds. 4 law of Congress had au-
thorized such work TO be done, and the
President when in New York examined
the plan of the work, and approved it,.
Both he and the Attorney General agreed
that it was a good work and should be paid
for. Between the years 1871 and 1875, there
was paid for that purpose $4,000. The At
torney General, in explaining the matter
TO the committee, showed that, according
TO his view, the expenditure was legal, and
properly made under the law. 4 member
of the committee gave it as his opinion that
there was not particle Of evidence thus
far before the committee TO show, even by
inference, any improper or illegal act on
the part Oft President.
Another Imaginable feature Of this inves-
tigation mania was that Of mysterious
Witness" with whose testimony one of the
investigating committees proposed to break
down the reputation of President Grant.
But the witness turned out to be stark
mad, and the Democrats are greatly annoy
ed at the ridicule brought upon them
selves because of their whispering that this
President.

Executive Mansion, April Is,

A REMARKABLE FUNEnAL.-Mrs. Rox-
cellanah KeysCr, the widow of the late Err
nest Keyser, the eccentric millionaire, was
buried from her late residence, No. IA East
Eiity-seveuth street, yesterday. Such a
funeral display was never before seen in
this city, and probably never will he again.
1t for ned fitting ending to a most eccen-
trio career. Mr.. Keyser, who died two
years ago, was originally butcher, and
then became an ice Spectator. He made
an immense amount of money Ivy purchas-
ing land in the neighborhood Of Finh ave-
nue. when it was mere swamp, and sell
ing il when the city was built up at higher
prices. MIR. Keyser was about eighty
years old ut the time Of his death. Mrs.
Keyser, who WIS buried yesterday, was
the daughter of an old man named Peter
Decker, who owned two blocks of land
running from Fourth to Fifth avenues, and
from Finy-sixth to Finy-severih streets.
Old Mr.. Decker lived in stone house on
his property, and carted swll from the
disllleries, his wife driving milk cart.
Mrs. Keysor's body was placed in the re-
ceptiCn room on the first floor. The casket
was made of oak, lined with white satin,
and covered with black velvet costing Sll
yard. II was covered with gold fringe
and had solid gold plate and six chased
gold handles. The cost Of tie casket was
$1,000. The floral decorations were superb
and cost nearly $1,000. They consisted OF a
pillar Of tea roses and carnations, an an
Choir Of tubcroses. cross of camclias five
feet in height, bed Of snilax aud exotic
flowers, and number Of smaller pieces,
among which were a beautiful crown and
wreath OF immortclles aud vole,s. DIR.
ArmitaSe of the Finh Avenue Baptist
church read the funeral services and made
some suitable remarks in reference TO the
life OF the deceased. The funeral cortege
then started. The hear>o was drawn by
six black horses, each horse covered with u
heavy velvet pail. Then came the six car
riagcs for the friends Of the family and the
mourners, each carriage drawn by cour
horses, and the procession was brought to
close BY the seventy carriages, each
drawn by two horses, many Of which were
unoccupied.
Mrs. Keyser, it is understood, leaves ST.
900, coo TO be divided between her sister and
her sisters four children. 1t is said that
before she married Mr.. Keyser, in order to
save trouble ia the family, she made him
settle $4,000 on each of his nine children
by his first wife. Despite their great
wealth, Mr.. aud Mrs. Keyser were not re-
ceivOd into sOcety.-N. J. Times.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN MINSEsoTA.-
Minnesota is trying the experiment of wo-
man suffrage in limited and cautious
way, but by the adoption Of a method
which will peGhaps 60 far to solve the prob
lem by testing results. a law passed by
the Les islaiurc, last winter, extended to
woman the right 10 bold the Office Of school
director, and the right 10 vote for candi
dates for that office. Wherever there were
vacancies on school boards, therefore, the
women took their prescribed but uuaccus-
toned part in the local elections on Tues
day last. The Minneapolis papers report
that, in tho portion of the city east of tho
Mississippi river, which is usually demo-
cratic, the democrats nominated two of
their most popular men, and the republic
caHs two oftheir most effective women, and
the ladies-Mrs. Charlotte Van C!eve and
Mrs. Charlotte Winchoil-wero elected by
las and rs majority. There were no noisy
appeals, and only one meeting was held,
which was addressed by women, but the
canvass though quiet, was earnest, and sew
eral hundred ladies availcl themselves of
the right to VOTE The Tribune Of that city
says: Separate boxes had been provided
for the ladies, and 10 the credit of their big
and brawny brothers, be ii said, they were
everywhere treated with the highest court
esy and respect, and one would hardly sus-
poet from casual observation that any
!hng uuususl was transporting in political
or social life. Nearly all the ladies voting
came in groups, from four to six in num-
Der, the men stepping aside until their bal
lots were placed in the special deposit pro-
vlded for them, and then the party would
leave for home, leaving their brothers
somewhat astounded that "woman's suf-
fla5e" could be $50 courIeously and effect
lively demonstrated. Occasionally lady
appeared alone, but the rule was largely in
favor of the grouping programme.

The President. veto Of the Salary nn.

To The Senate Of the United States:
Herewith | return TO the Senate bill No.
liz, entitled "An act fixing the salary of
the President Of the United States" with
out my approval. ram constrained to this
course from sense Of duty to my success
ors in Office, TO myself, and 10 what il due
to the dignity Of the position of the chief
magistrate of a nation of more than &c, OOO,-
0t0 of people. When the salary Of the
President Of the United States was fixed
by the constitution at S25 900 per annum,
we were nation of but 3,O0O,00O of people,
poor from long and exhaustive war, With
out commerce or manufacturers, with but
few wants, and those cheaply supplied.
The salary must then have been deemed
small for the responsibilities and dignity
Of the position, but iustifably so from the
impoverished condition of tho Treasury
and the simplicity it was desired to cult.
yate in the republic.
The salary of Congressmen, under the
Constitution, was first fixed at So per day
for the time actually in session, or 1920 per
year, or less than one-thirleth OF the sala-
ry Of the President Congresses have leg
islated upon their own salaries from time
TO time since, until finally il has reached
$1,000 per nnnum, or Oue.tinh that of the
Presidents before tho salary of the latter
was Increased. No one having a knowl-
edge Of the cost of living at the National
Capital will contend that the present salary
of Congressman is too high, unless it be TO
make the Office entirely one OF honor, when
the salary should be abolished, PROPOSE
ton repugnant TO our republican ideas and
institutions. | do not believe that tho cit
zens of this republic desire their public
servants TO serve them without a fair COM
pensation for their services. twenty-five
thousand dollars does not derray the ex-
penses OF the executive for Que year, or has
not in my experience. 1t is now ono-lirth
in value to what it was whcu fixed by the
constitution, in supplying the demands
and wants. Having no personal Interest
in this matter, l have felt myself free to re-
turn this bill to the house in which it orr
Ginated, with my objections, believing that
in doing 50 | meet the wishes and judg.
ment of great majority OF those who in
directly pay all the salaries and other ex-
penses of the government. (Signed)

THE HYDE PARK TRAGEDY Edison
Cook, who brutally murdered his son at
Hyde Park last Sunday morning, has been
an inmate OF the Brattleboro asylum for
about four months during the past year,
his insanity taking the form of religious
mania. About the first of January last he
was taken home by his son Qhe murdered
MANI to save the expense of his keeping,
but quite contrary to the advice of the asy-
lum physicians. The circumstances of the
murder are given as lollows:-
Early Sunday morning Charles went to
the sugar-place TO work, and beng afraid
10 leave his father in the house with his
mother and sister, he took him with him to
the sugar orchard. In about half an hour
Cook came back to the house and told his
wife, and daughter Carrie, that he had
killed Charlie down at the sugar-place
Carrie was sick in bed but got up and ran
to the sugar place, and there was Charlie
welterng in his gore. In her horror she
ran 10 MIR. Bliss, the nearest neighbor, and
gave the alarm. When Mr. Bliss arrived
Charlie was yet gasping. 1t was found that
the frontal and superior portions of the
skull were iearfuly fractured. The first
blow had obviously been struck with the
back OF the axe, upon the forehead, aud
probably eXtinguished consciousness in
stantly. Several more blows were, howev-
err, struck, as the skull was horribly crush
ed, and many gashes were visible. Both
bones of the left leg were broken. To all
appearance, Charley was inside the sugar
house, coming towards the door, and his IA
Their outside waiting with axe in hand TO
deal the fatal blow. In the meantime, the
agouized wife aud mother was alone with
the maniac at the house, not knowing the
awful fate of her son, but fearing the worst,
went out of doors and remained Till some
men came and brought the intelligence.
Cook had got a battle-ground staked out In
his door-yard, and had brought out the
plow, pitchork and such edge tools as he
could find. lie tried to make desperate
resistance but was thrown down. shaekled
aud takea TO Jail, where he now lies await
