THE OTHER LIAR.

A's Interesting Interrie,O Nth Anderson.s
RiUnt-Wh0t Mr.. Weber Has to Say.
New Orleans Special to Chicago Daily News.
The Democrat publishes the following in
tervlew with E. 5. Weber, in regard to James
Anderson's recent recantation:
Anderson's recent reversal of himself, and
the assertion of the Republican press that
Weber would soon follow suit, creates a new
interest in the latter gentleman. Mr.. Weber
is in town, and was called on last night,
when the following conversation took place:
Reporter-What do you think of Ander.
sons recent affidavit recanting his testimony
against John Sherman before the Potter
committee?
Weber, think he was bought. AS far as
his statements relate to me they are lies made
out of whole cloth.
any money for your testimony before the
Potter committee?
Weber, did not receive any money for
my testimony, but I was led to believe that
l could get money or position if / would tes-
tify in favor of John Sherman and the Re-
publican party.
Rep.-Were you approached directly or
indirectly with view of retractinp yonr
testimony before the Potter committee. and
If so, were you led to believe you would be-
paid for so doing?
Weber-Yes.
Rep.-Do you object to giving the names
OF the parties who approached you to retract
your testimony and those who told YOU that
1t would be to your interest pecuniarily to 90
with the Republican party.
Weber, will not give any names now
other than those mentioned in my testimony.
At a proper time I will give all of them.
Rep-It is charged that your evidence in
regard to the destruction OF the Sherman let
ter is not true. It is argued that a man Of
your sense, knowing the value of such a
paper, would have Kept it to bank on.
Weber, told the truth, however improb-
able it may seem. It may be one OF those
cases where truth is stranger than fiction.
That letter would have been disgrace to nv
brothers family; his widow was anxious to
find 1T to destroy it. Those and other inf1u-
ences caused me to destroy the letter. IF
had been disposed to conceal the truth. il
would have been very easy for me to have
said that my brother had such letter from
John Sherman, of which I had seen the hand
writing, being known to me, but what had
become of it l was unable to say. That
would have been very probable story, but
as 1t was not true did not say SO. Every
material fact stated by me before the COM
mittee is true, and have nothing to take
back.

ENGLISH GRAIN.
Condition of the r.ll Work and the Mar.

lSets.
LONDON, Nov. 19.-The Mark Lane EG-
press says: Very cold weather throughout
the kingdom with heavy snow, hail, and
rain, seriously delayed agricultural opera
tions. Fortunately field labor was fairly adj
vanced before the weather broke, but dry
weather is now desirable to enable northern
farmers to end their autumn sowing. Not
withstanding the cold weather, and the be-
ginning of what promise to be long, Sc
we're winter, there has been a want of buoy
ancy in the wheat trade which is very disap-
pointing to sellers. Heavy rain having pre-
vented threshing, supplies of English
wheat have been curtailed in
the country markets and Mark Lane,
while the condition of the bulk of offerings
has undergone further deterioration. Daily
complaints are heard that millers are Obliged
to use large proportion of dry foreign pro-
duce IN their manufactures, hard Russian
and Indian varieties being most in request
for this purpose. Imports of foreign wheat
into London has been moderate. The bulk
OF supply was shipped at Constadt or st.
Petersburg. Notwithstanding small arrivals
at ports of call, the floating cargo trade has
been quiet for American wheat at decline
OF about shilling per quarter, while Rus
sian sorts have been steady. Barley firm
and maize lower.

great deal Of discussion has been excited by
the arrest on Monday night (or rather at o'clock
Tuesday morning) of two couples Of emlnently
respectable young people from Marscilles. The
circumstances were these: the young folks came
down for II ride and gay time generally. They
drove into the city about 80 O'Clock In the
morning, singing, talking and laughing loudly
and boisterously-say the police-and kept 1t up
till 3 O'Clock, which caused their arrest In the
ing who they were released them. There 1t was
supposed the matter would end, quietly and un-
known to but half dozen persons. Not so, how
ever. citizen OF Marscilcs came down and
hcgan spreading the news OF the "outrage'
right and left; the Times devoted two columns to
il and 1t became the town talk the police pretty
generally being abused for their part in it. That
the young people were making disturbance
there is no question The fact was partially ad-
mittcd by themselves and can be proved
ty plenty Of witnesses. That they were partly
unconscious of the amount of noise they did
make, may also he true that their characters are
above reproach is equally tue; yet all these
things give them no right TO or excuse for vlo-
lating the ordnance which is supposed to have
been framed to meet such cases, regardless of
sect, class, rank, "color or previous condition of
scrvitude.' They were unknown to the police,
who had no discretion but TO do their duty.
Doubtless the business is unpleasant all around,
but is not with redeeming traits If it is properly
accepted by the young people rs a wholesome
lesson.
