The committee in Congress to
which was referred the bid in be-
huff OF railroad from Galveston,
Texas, to Camargo, Mexico, have
SO amended it as to require the
company 10 issue to the Secretary
of the Treasury its first mortgage
bonds at the rate of 81, 500 per
mile. Tue bonds are 10 bear an
annual interest of six per cent for
twenty-five years, and are to be
exchanged for the III. S. a per cent
bonds. The difference of the in
terest. which is two per cent, is to
be used for the purpose of4creatine
a sinking fund in the hands Of the
United States Treasury for the re-
siremant of the principal of the
icompany's bonds. The chief ar
gnment used for the building ol
this road is the Development d
trade that would follow thereby
and lessen the probabilities of wal

Counterfeit Fifties.
New York Sun I

When the next steamship from
Hamburg arrives, the railroad
ticket agents in Castle Garden will
examine the money presented for
tickets by the emigrants more
CLOSELY than they did when the
Heraer arrived ON Tuesday. Geo.
O'Connor took twelve crisp, fresh
hooking $50 notes in the Broadway
and the Trades,nen's Banks from
emigrnnts who went West the same
evening. When Mr.. Connor's clerk
handed $1,000 to the teller In the
Manhattan Banking Association
ON Wednesday, the teller mechan-
ically counted the notes until he
saw the first of the $50 notes,
Which he threw out, saying, Conn
terfeit."
"What!' the clerk exclaimed.
Counterfeit, and a $50 note, tool
The teller said nothing, but
threw out another note as spurious.
Then ten more were thrown out.
'sSfx hundred dollars gone at
one swoop," the clerk said, looking
the picture of despair. ''But how
do you know they are counterfeit"
The teller could notexplain why
he had thrown out the notes, as
they seemed perfect. The engra-
wing was excellent, and they bore
the stamp of Plant & Co., we'll
known Berlin bankers.
A Dane who had two OF the notes
snid that when he was in Hamburg
the landlord of an inn advised him
to exchange his gold for American
notes. "A banker named Leayett
who is known as a reputable deal
er, exchanged the gold, charging
the regular rates. The Gerinali
Consul faneies that the banker Was
deceived, rs were also l.. Israel Il
Co., who gave out the notes im
gold.

Washington, June 4.-Anderson
was examined at great length, and
severely by Mr.. Reed, OF Maine,
who pushed the witness closely,
and MIR. Mcmahon submitted that
the witness was entitled to fair
consideration; he submitted the
proposition to the committee. 1t
was decided that the witness should
not be abused by counsel. Moth
ing startling WIS elected, except
that the witness said, regarding
his former testimony, / told the
truth to the Senate Committee IN
such a manner that they might be
deceived. I told only part of the
truth. I testified to certain facts
and let them draw their own con-
illusions. / confess / wanted to
deceive them; don't think that is
the same thing as perjury. / knew
that the committee was misled by
what I said. The sensationalists
were disappointed that Butler did
not conduct the cross-examination.

The Ohio Legislature, some weeks
ago, passed new apportionment act
for TINT State changing and reorgan-
izing the Congressional Districts. I'm
der the old gerrymandering act, passed
by Republican Legislature, the Dem
ocrats, although their vote for members
of Congress was nearly equal to that of
the Republicans, elected only eight.
while the Republicans elected twelve
Representatives BY the new act the
Republicans will elect only seven Con-
gressnlen, the Democrats thirteen. 1t
is natural that the former should howl
over this change, but the result which
annoys them most is that the reorgani-
zation of these districts 1etires q num-
her of leading Republicans from the
field, leaving them in Democratic con-
stituences without hope of election.
The Presidents friends are particr-
larly unfortunate in this respect.
Charles Foster, one of Hayes cham
l,ions in the House, is left high and
dry in district that will give 1926 De
mocratic majority The only hope he
has of election is to leave Fostoria, his
lifelong home, and move to one of the
seven districts left the Republicans.
Garfield was left III similar style, but
not being q man to be driven out OF
Congress in this way, notified the world
That he had moved to Lake county, and
would be a candidate for Congress in
that, q Republican, district.
Jacob ID. Cox, another friend of the
President, has also been left in dis
trict where he has no chance of cleo
sion, a fact that lie acknowledges by
declining to become a candidate for re-
election
The new Ohio apportionment act,
therefore. willnot only lose Republicans
some five Representatives, butrob them
of the services i'll Congress of the lead
ing men Of their party.-N. o. Demo

Atlanta, Ga, May 30.-Mrs.
Kate Southern, the mnrderess,
whose sentence was commuted 10y
the Governor to imprisonment for
ten years, arrived here with her
husband and child this morning.
There was great excitement to 500
her. She will be sent to convict
campin Washington county, where
her sister, Amorelli Hombriek, is
confined. Her husband goes with
her; and says he will remain with
her uutil her sentence has expired.
The lessee of the convict camp has
agreed to give him work on bis
farm, and good wages, that he may
be with his wife and child. During
the journey here Mrs. Southern
met with many expressions Of the
public sympathy. The guard who
was with her said: "Not one harsh
word hes she heard since / started
with her." She and her family are
very greatly impoverished by the
expenses of her trial. Her father
mortgaged his farm for money "

comfortable while ip prison. She
arrived here entirely destitute, and
there was an arrangement made
that those persons that entered ne

INDEPENDENCE IN PoIITIos.-It

Stanley Matthew's.
Special to the N. o. Democrat.

Washington, June 6.-Ihe friends
of Stanley Matthews make the fol-
lowing explanation of the relations
between him and James e. Ander-
son. The statement, as / under
stand, is made emi-officially if not
by authority. 1t is this:
Packard had become sorely ag-
grieved over his treatment by the
administration and was endeavor-
ing to collect evidence to blow it
out of the water, and was relying
on certain damaging documentary
evidence which lie believed to be
in existence to bring scandal upon
the new administration.
In his (Paoknrd's) endeavor to
accomplish his purpose, he conf
ded his plans to Anderson, because
the latter, from the part he had
played III the State canvass, was a
valuable auxiliary 10 him, and An
derson instead of keeping faith
with Packard posted off to Cinein-
matt aud told Senator Matthews Of
Packard's plans, and at the same
time told him that with his Mat
thews' assistance and co-opsra-
ton, be Thought that he could get
possession of the very Documents
thut Packard was seeking.
That Matthew's advised him
| (Anderson) to go back to New Or
leans, hunt up this evidence and
forward it to him, and to enable
Anderson the better to accomplish
this purpose he gave him o letter
to Gen. Harlan, a member of the
Louisiana commission, who was tu
aid him.
Anderson did go to New Orleans
/ and did forward to Senator Mat
thews certain documents, including
the Weber and Nash agreements
and when he had thus gotten these
papers out of Packard's reach he
claimed his reward, and in consid-
Grafton of this service SOLELY, Sen
,ltor Matthew's tried to assist hin
to q place in the public service.
/ This gives Packard chance tc
explain, if he will.
! 1t is understood Stanley Mat
i thews will demand q Senatorial
committee Of investigation of his
connection with Anderson. He
will decline to appear before the
House committee.
