DETECTIVE BELLS STORY.
District Attorney Dyer Before
the Committee.
A Partial Confederation of ReIPs
Testimony.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The Committee on
War Expenditures to day heard ID. P. Dyer
District Attorney at st Louis, in reference to
the testimony of c. S. Bell, the detective, who
testified yesterday.
Bell soon after the proposition to furnish Over
information delivered to him the cipher and
Bradley the letter. After the trial he returned
them to Bell and has not seen them since ex.
cept as produced in the New York Herald.
These papers were not produced till nearly the
end of the trial. The reason they were not
used in evidence was because Luckey was sum-
moned there by the government and was final
ly claimed as witness for the defence At
consultation between witness and his associates
Broadhead and Eaton, and as to the advisable
ty OF calling Bell as witness, it was decided to
wait until Luckey was put upon the stand and
then produce Bell in rebuttal 1t is understood
Bradley was there, also called by the defence,
and it was intended that Bell should not be
brought in as witness in chief Had the
prosecution known or believed thai the defence
would not call Luckey, they would have had
Bell brought forward and used in chief
Mr. Bell, who was in the room, asked Col.
Dyer whether it was because of his supposed
unreiability. that he was not put upon the
stand.
Col. Dyer answered that when he told him
he had stolen the Avery papers from the Dis
trict Attorneys Office he did not look upon him
as witness. He did not believe much in him
till he got all the papers, but if Luckey had
been called he certainly would have put Bell
on the stand in rebuttal.
Mr. Bell then asked Col. Dyer if in such a
case extraordinary means are not necessary to
get evidence.
Col. Dyer said he was not in that kind of
business and did not feel competent TO answer
the question. He had rot found it necessary,
either as professional lawyer or otherwise, to
resort to such means either to purchase the alb.
straction or suppression of evidence, or any
such violent or questionable tactics. That was
not his way of conducting business
Col. Dyer said Bells testimony was substan.
TALLY correct so far as he had seen it printed in
the Washington papers as far as it referred te
him. Bell was, however, incorrect in locating
the conversation at the District Attorneys of.

Eaton, one of his associate counsel

Hefferan and stoned them. The st. John pa.

There is little prospect Of the saw mills in

100000 900 feet logs in stock; about $500 900
feet boards shipped since the LIST of January.
At a meeting of the Depression Committee
of the Dominion Honse, f. Killam, M. p,
ship owner of Yarmouth, was examined. He
said shipping interests were much depressed.
This began ten years ago in ships making short
voyages, but until the beginning of the present
year long voyages had been remunerative,
Ships returning from Guiana and West Indies
had no offer of paying freight to return. He
attributed the causes of the shipping depression
to the fact that the demand for imported arti-
cles had generally decreased in the United
States.
There is one sort of hummer we don't have,
as the following from a Dominion paper indi-
Gates: LAST week plausible scamp, calling
himself Col. J. P. Del Les Derner of Baton
Rouge, Louisiana, called on some of our citi-

South, and the remittances he is expecting
