WASHINGTON. June 2. 1873.

w ASHlNGION, June q, 1915.
My Dear Sir-Yours of the twenty seventh
reached me yesterday. | learned, on inquiry,
that the committee had not ordered Mrs.
Weber to be summoned, but, on the contrary,
Yesterday decided not to summon her to
Washington. OF course there cannot be any
summons except in writing, signed by some
official, or q telegram SO officially signed, and
there can be no arrest of any one except by
vote of the House of Representatives.
You will have seen in the papers that AM
derson has testified, and that Secretary Sher-
man has denied writing the letter about
Mrs. Weber is wanted by Mr.. Sheldon to tes-
tify BIS to whether she has seen 1t or not. I
do not know that I ought to advise you or
her on the subject Your own good judgment
will determine what you shall do. / will
only say that it would be wise to keep your
own counsels, or at least confer only with a
good attorney OF your own selection, until
you are called upon to testify, and then testi-
fy to the exact truth whether it hurts or helps
friend or foe, Republican or Democrat.
Webers knowledge, that you or she think
ought to be known, it would be well to write
them out carefully and communicate them to
Gen. b. f. Butler, or any other Republican
member OF the committee who could Judge OF
their Importance, and whether Or not you OF
she ought to be called as a witness. I do not
care about taking any part In the business
but If you prefer that course you may for
ward me any statement you may prepare
and will submit it to the Republican mem.
beers of the committee, who viii then judge OF
it as above. Very truly yours,
w. E. CHANDLER.
Mr.. E. L. Weber, Donaldsonville, La.
There were several other letters to and
from Twitchell and II. Morris to read. They
were offered to corroborate that portion Of
Weber's testimony relating to business trans
actions with both these men.
The committee adjourned until 10 80 O'Clock
this morning.

The London correspondent of the Sprin
field RepuJlieon makes the following state
ment indicative of the British love of beer /.
Messrs. Bass & Co. brewers of Burton ale,
paid the railway carriers, last year, $4,000
a week for freight charges upon their goods.
As they are not the largest firm in the traf-
fc, it can be guess d what the largest firm
pay. Certainly not less than $4,000. How
much beer is drank in London every day ?
We cannot tell exactly, but, as there are
10000 t~averns, We can venture to calculate /;
there is not less than IN average of 25 gal
Ions in each, and decidedly not less than
100000 in all. There * u small inn close to
the London general post-oftice where 1855
of stout are retailed every day,
one opposite the Bank of England
sets rid of not less than 200 gallons. A not
rery large beer saloon close to the Great
Northern Railway depot lately sold its good
will for $4,000. Many very quIet-looking
beer houses have a wagon load oF ale and
tout every morning. The loaa is never
ess than a dozen to a dozen and n half sc
gallon barrels. Certain houses, such as the
: Elephant and Castle" the Red Cap"
{ Adelaide" Mother shipton," Royal
Oak Eagle" and Angel" couldn't be
under a moderate fortune, and
would be cheap at that, SO enormous is their
srade.
