POTTER INTERVIEWED.
He Thinks That More VIII Be Developed
Than Was Expected ana Laughs at
the idea of RegOlntIOn.

NEW YORK. juno 4.-Mr Potter was In this
city yesterday. having como from Washington
to visit his family Oh Saturday night and being
detained on professional business, AS q gen-
eral rule he makes a point Of avoiding report
ers. and Intends to pursue this course until the
famous investigation is settled. A reporter
happened to cross his path yesterday before he
atartpd for Washington and interviewed him.
MIR. Potter Is reticent regarding the pected re-
suit pending the invest sigatiOn
The RepubliCaDs, he said, have had everv ad
vantage thus far In tho investigation. They
were allowed to name their own members OF the
committee. with the exception of Con. Butler
| They also chose their own men for the sub
committees. They were also permtted to have
their own way. with regard to parties implicated
appearing before the committee with counsel
and it was left with them to say whether they
would have open or closed doors.
1t was supposed by many belonging to both
political partles that Il great many things would
transpire during the course Of the II vestiga-
ton which 1t would not be JudicOus to give to
tho public at present, and the responsibility OF
publicity has been thrown upon the RepubI-
cans.
Mr.. Potter seems to have no doubt that the
Investigation will bear even creator fruits than
those that have been promised. He has no fenr
of revOl luton and laughs at the Idea. thinking 1t
only a bugbear of the opposition to stihR inves-
tigatiOn on this point He said he had little or
nothing to add to his letter already given to the
public,

New YORK. June 4.-The Socialists In this city
are greatly excited over the attempted 8ssassi-
nation Of the Emperor William not they say.
for any love they, bear him, but because the act
was performed by n Socialist. Scores Of tho
fraternity gathered in clusters ut Schwab's ga
loon, and the proprietor was the centre of an
excited group several times during tire day.
The discussion was very animated and Schwab
became very much excited at times, and gesticu-
lated wildly md talked loudly He denounced
the right of Modelling to cal! himself Socialist
"a he was not true to SOcalistir principles
1t was true he id, that Modelling had at
tended meetings of the order in Germany, but
all true members should dscOuntenAnce him.
Blood was not wanted. Any member WHO
sought to advance the order interests by TAX
Ing a life, only retarded their progress. Nobe-
ling's conduct was very Injurious 0 the order
In this city, and in the whole country. Schwab
did not hesitate to say that he would like to see
everY member of the Royal family ped out
yet he would not advise the use of the bullet or
the knife. The whole family, he thought must
eventually leave the throne, and the sooner the
better, bnt all measures ware unwi-e that

Is not fighting man, took himself away in
very lively manner. He said that the clothes
found were his fathers beyond peradventure
It was a suit he had had made and presented 10
his father about year ago Al OF the clothes
and drawers everything except the outside
shirt and soeks and all of them can be identt-
fed rs his fathers,
The finding of these clothes slowed away up
under the rafters of the building Is, in Mr.
Harrison'a estimation, 9 cheerful, comment on
he assertions OF the officers @ of'the lnstlt9t,2n M
body Ia tho building. Gen. HarrsOn's opinion
is that the robbery Of his iather's grave wes
specially ordered and that that particular body
was wanted and that men were hired to got it,
and paid especially for that Job. Certainly some,
If not al! Of the circumstances, seem to justify
him in this belief.
Cen. Harrison says that If the doctors were
merely buying bodies as thev were delivered,
with no knowledge and no care about who or
solves were to blame. but II these men who
robbed his, fathers grave were hired, with
especial orders to get that body, aud t? rob that
particular grave then the mon who hired them
are the mon he wants to find.
He has no doubt Of his final SUCCESS. He al
ready has a clue that he is confident will lead
to the discovery Of the guilty ones and he will
continue this search for months, or for years.
If necessary, but that be will find out the desc

The best detective talent In the country is being
employed. and nothing that human ingenuity
could devise toward ferrettng out the dee. era
tors will be left undone. Every member OF the
faculty will be obliged to testify before the
grand jury, and then they must tell the truth,
DerjuTe themselves. or claim the privilege OF
refusing to testify on the score that their test-
mOny would Griminate themselves.
Gen. Harrison and his brothers will remain
in tho city until some result is obtained. If
they have to stay for q year, Gen. Harrison
may go to indianapolis to attend to pressing
business this week, but he will return imme-
diately."

RussIa's Agent for the Purchase of Ves-


PHILADELPHIA Notwithstanding sev.
eral business houses have been thrust forward
as the s0-called confidential agents Of the Rus
sian government tor the purchase Of ships in
this country, the fact iB that the man who has
had entire charge Of the negotiations. and who
has bought the three vessels thus far secured
for Russia, and who is tho only person really
authorized to represent the Czar aud has sole
charge of this mater, is quiet and unDssum-
ing gentleman In this city.
He is q banker ut he head Of long estAb-
lished house. that Of Barker Brothers & Co..
and his name Is Wharton Barker. The firm
were the financial agents Of the Russian repre-
eentaives in America during the Centennial
Exhibition, and at that time. 1t s believed. the
preparations bagan. which are eliminating in
the purchase Of American built merchant yes
sells for the Russian navy. 1t is known that Mr.;
Barker was long since In possess ion of a careful
and accurate list OF such ships In this country
az were suitable for the prop sed service. and
when the time came that the impending Euro
pean war made these naval acquisitions desir
able Mr.. Barker was not long in making the
selection.
The statement that he is acting as the agent
of Barring Brothers. the London bankers, in
this matter. and that they furnish the money. Is
not true. While the firm of Barker Brothers
deal with the Barings in sundry other matters.
in this transaction the Barings have no cOnnec-
tiOR whatever
