Our WHISKY RINa.--Chicago, March
12th.-An Associated Press report from
San Francisco this morning refers to an
American Press report from this city
giving the substance of an interview with
Revenue Agent D. L. Phillips, recently
engaged in working up the frauds on the
PacificCoast, and states on the authority
of Revenue Agent Clark that no evidence
has been found to implicate Senator
Sargent. Mr.. Phillips, who is editor of
the Illinois State Journal, and O gentle
man of high standing, was quite en-
phatic in his statements, and left the inn
preston tiat the testimony which he is
about to present. to Congress will un-
doubtedly implicate Senator Sargent. It
is alleged by writer in the Tribune to.
day that the entire public service on the
coast is run by Senator Sargent in the
interest of the ring; that the Postoffice,
Mint, Custom House, Internal Revenue,
and District Attorneys offices are filed
with men subject to his orders, and that
he is all powerful in Washington to pro-
tect them in office. The same writer
states that Bristow and Commissioner
Pratt are cognizant Of these facke, have
ample proof Of frauds. and could bring
the guilty parties to justice and punish
ment if they desired to do so. Accord.
ing to the testimony of Mr.. Phillips,
every obstacle is placed in the way of
revenue officers from the East, who seek
to ferret out corruption at San Francisco,
although it is we'll understood that fraud
exists, and the impression is that the
members of the Pacific Ring enjoy pro-
lection from some powerful official
source. Mr.. Phillips stated that the rev.
enue officers and ring men made common
cause to prevent him from gaining infor.
nation. and every move he made was
reported simultaneously in the revenue
offices. and to the Ring head authorities,
Notwithstanding Mr.. Clark's denial.
