New ORLEANS, July 3.-The Potter sub
committee met at 1870, but no Witnesses
appearing, a recess was taken. 1t re-as-
sembled at 1910, when J. =. Harris took
the stand. The witness testified that he
prepared, at Packard's suggestion, and filed
with the returning board, the paper knosn
as "The Packard General Protest" and
which covered several parishes. The OBJ
ject of filing it was to induce the returning
board to defer action until testimony should
be collected from the parishes. He was
acting as an attorney for Packard in the
Circuit court room at the custom house;
affidavits were prepared that were used
before the returning board when the wit
nesses came from the parishes. Harris
heard their statement and
WROTE THEM OUT
in legal form; his duties were mainly
clerical. The witness thinks he assisted
Don Weber in the preparation Of his pro-
test, which the witness was to file with the
returning board or not a. he (the witness)
might think proper Weber said to the wit
ness: "If Tilden and Nichols are elected
and my protest goes in, my property in
Feliciana will be worthless as could not
live there, but if you think the Republi-
cans will succeed, you can send the protest
to the returning board" 1 afterwards
filed the protest; . number of clerks in the
custom house were engaged several weeks
afidavits to Mr.. Reed; the pa
er / prepared for Governor Packark was
merely preliminary statement, such as Is
authorized BY section three Of the election
law.
WILLIAM SIMPSON TEsTIFIED
that he was formerly private secretary to
Col. Casey, and afterwards, for seven years,
cashier of customs. The witness was re-
lieved from duty by Collector King; short
y easterwards he met afneod who had al-o
been dismissed from service in the custom
house this friend, whose name the witness
positively refused to divulge, told the wit
ness that he was present in Gov. Kellogg's

EXCLUSION OF REPORTEEs

The feeling among non-partisan citiz1ns Is

Engineering Extraordinary.

THE LAST NIGHTS WORK ON THE BRIDGE
OVER THE RARITAN AT NEW BRUINS
WICK.
On Saturday morning of last week the
bridge over the Raritan river at New
Brunswick, N. j., was burned, and 127
hours later, or at 2 o'clock on Thursday
afternoon, train crossed on a new
bridge of over 1000 feet In length and
from 80 to ~ feet in height. In view of
the unpropitious weather 1t was a won
derful feat of engineering.
On Monday a strong southeast wind
drove the water back, and there was an
unusually high tide. The low, marshy
ground on the north side of the river was
Hooded, and then came the storm of
Tuesday. Despite the rain the work was
pushed forward while daylight lasted
but after Dightfall IL was impossi BILE to
work in the storm. On Wednesday
morning, however, the storm abated,
and thenceforward until all was compile
ted, there was no cessation except for a
few minutes long intervals apart to ell
able the men to cat.
On the last night of the work, the
New jersey men had about $50 men at
work, the Pennsylvanians 100. At night
fall all the lower bents were in place but
of the upper tier there were still seven
to be raised by the Peunsy lvanians and
and five by the New Jersey men. The
Raritan had been 80 swollen by Tuesdays
storm that it had shifted several of the
bents, and had changed the bottom at
one point of the stream, so that to ac-
commoaate the new situation, all the
mbsrs of the five north side bents, had
to be reframed.
As the sun went dswn on Wednesday
evening the. smoke from some smould-
ering log fires on the meadow and on the
end of the piers changed to fame, and
ere long the ruddly freight was brigh-
tening all the scene. There were three
such fires on the piers, two on the
marshy grounds below. and one on a
higher level where the carpenters work.
ed. Then locomotive headlight at the
north end of the work, glared over every
thing, all night long. The light afforded
by these fires enabled the men, who
we're moving about on the trestle work
or beneath it. to see that thew neither
plunged through any OF the many open
ings IN the frames, nor, If below, ven
tured into places where the mud was
over knee deep.

GET RID OF YOUR FAT.-The very
best and safest way TO get rid of super
Huous fat is TO work it of, walk or run 1t
off. This may be aided by eating food
which contains large amount of nitro
gen and a small amount ofcarbon. Nitro
genous food is that which gives strength,
power to work, as lean meats, carbOna-
ceous foods are those which make fats,
such as cheese, potatoes, rice, corn, peas,
beans, tapioca, arrow-root, corn-starch,
milk, sugar, syrup, and all oily and fat
food. Raw fruit and berries, largely
eaten, are great aids in reducing weight.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Special Correspondence OF the HERALD.

Special Correspondence OF the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, D. G., Dec. 2.
The actual necessary work of Congress is
done by its Committees. Debates, political
speeches, ,..and other causes Of delay may be
called the ornamental work OF a session,
and alone attract attention from the people
at large. Half the needed work of this
session was done before Congress met on
December 9nd, the House Appropriation
Committee having met and prepared The
bills, 80 that when the House adjourned
over on Thursday two appropriation bills
had been passed and two more. reported
and all the others are nearly ready. If, af,
ter passing these bills during the next two
weeks, Congress would adjourn without
day know of no Government interest that
would suffer, for their schemes are not
ready this early to be pushed.
But the consummaten so devoutedly to
be wished cannot be expected. Senator
Blaine and others in the two Houses must
discuss the politics of the country. What
good they expect to do, either to the coun>
try or themselves, puzzles the understand
ing. In hardly any ofthe Northern States
has any party majority of votes, and this
condition of things exists simply because
thousands have already had too much poll
ties and wish to see the business of the
country attended to. Senator Blaine will, If
he gets eh ance, speak next Monday on his
political resolution, introduced the first
DAY of the session. do not believe that
there will be extended discussion on the
subject.
senator Edmunds will endeavor on same
day to get up his bill to amend the manner
of counting votes for the President. 1t is
not likely this will be made party ques-
ton. The Senator, for wonder, seems to
have drawn bill which has no party in It.
OF its details shall speak further, but it
seems, upon Q hasty examination, to be
fair and prsctical.
Secretary Schurz and some Of the In
dian Agents were yesterday "a before the
