Mr.. Blaine and the Railroad
Bonds.

All the scandal mOngerS aud newspapers
that are hostile to republican leaders have
referred 10 Mr.. Jos. b. Stewart as one
who could tell a good many damaging
facts. They have called upon Mr.. Stew
art, IN various ways. until they have 81
last drawn him out IN long statement,
through the columns OF the New YORK
Tribune. The statement completely ca
onerateS Mr.. Blaine OF ali connection
with the scandals charged against hun,
and as Mr.. Stewart is 3 witness called by
the other side they must, 10 decency, &C
cept II IS 8 vindlcatlon. Mr.. Stewart
says:
"For some time past there have been
in circulation, through the medium OF the
press and otherwise. false and Slanderous
statements, 10 the effect that | had paid
10 the Hon. James @. Blaine certain
bonds OF the Union Pacific Railroad.
Eastern Division. and that Mr.. Blaine
called al my Office and received those
bonds. Upon the first announcement OF
this statement, some time in February.

and denounce as false every statement
70 the contrary. let il come from what
source il may.
in 3 communication filing three col
umns and half in the newspapers

tons. but shall present facts Of 3 eharac-
ter which cannot be disputed, and shall
only use such comment as NAV be r.

Mr. Stewart then gives documentary
evidence showing that he did act as at
torney Tor John f. Blaine in the railroad
Augations attributed TO James G.. Blaine.
and that the latter had no connection with
them. In relation TO the appearance OF
Mr.. Biaine's name in various forms dur-
