SELF"
Mr.. Anderson is man of
FIERY TEMPER,
and he hardly waited for word from the Sec
rotary when he continued in very loud tone
of voice: II suppose the trap is only one of
your many schemes against me. You know
that know all about that letter that you
wrote to Weber, and which is now in the
possession of Mrs. Weber. suppose that
you would like to put me out of the way in
the same fashion that Weber was, who was
guilty of the crime of knowing too much.'
At this outburst from the infatuated An
derson, Secretary Sherman
SANK BACK INTO HIS SEAT
and did not appear to know what to do.
Marks finally endeavored to restrain Ander-
son, but the latter was beside himself with
rage and would pay no attention. He shook
his cane in Sherman's face and defed him.
He said To him: "You have endeavored to
entrap me, and
SO HELP ME GOD
I will never speak to another member of this
administration or have anything to do in any
way with any of you"
After several more passages of a severely
denunciatory character, he went out with
Marks who endeavored to pacify and quiet
him down, but it only resulted in violent
quarrel between them which drew quite a
crowd, but some of tho friends of Anderson
interfs~ed, got possession of him and car
ried him off. Nothing that has been thus
far developed is more convincing that there
is a
CROOKED CASE AGAINST SHERMAN.
One can understand Marks motiv es with
out trouble. H is seeking to be appointed
collector Of internal revenue at New Orleans
and has tried to make point of Anderson
in order to curry favor with Sherman, but
that Sherman should lend himself to any
such scheme and provide trap with a law
yer and shorthand reporter to intimidate
this possible witness, would appear to war
rant almost anything that could be said
about
sHERMAN's PERSONAL CONNECTION
with the Louisiana frauds. There is an ap-
prehension that Sherman and his lawyer
will combine with Marks to make up a
statement for Anderson, for thus far the
scene has been kept dead secret. None of
the parties to the sensation anticipating pub
licat;on.
The Potter Committee.
There was no meeting of the Potter inves.
tigators yesterday afternoon. A formal
meeting will be held Monday. There is sur
prise among the Republican members at the
| report that the subcommittee to visit Louis
lana will consist Of Morrison, chairman,
Mcmahon and Gen. Butler-twu Democrats
and Gen. Butler. This would leave the Re-
publican friends of the administration with
out a representation in this important sub
committee. If Gen. Butler is not placed
upon the Louisiana subcommittee it will
not be because he has not earnestly desired
to be. He wishes to
! GET EVEN WITH MAYNE MC'vEIGH.
He is reported to be very earnest to secure
secret sessions, and it is possible that the
Democrats may yet reconsider their deter
mination and hold sessions in secret. Th,
Republicans will resist secret sessions t.
every possible extent. The Republican
managers and counsel are engaged in pre-
pairing their case. They will probably sub
NIT it Monday, with the demand that larg
number of witnesses be called. It is possible
they may insist that Tilden himself be called
as being the person, who, more than any
body else, would know about many of tn.
mysteries of the canvass.

Those who know all about Washburn an

suggestion that either of them lays claim t
any striking intellectual superiority $ * Bot
of them will draw their pay with grea
