The Teller and Potter Invessiga.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24th.-At
the meeting of the Teller Commit
tee the Chairman said if it was de.
sired to investigate the manner of
conducting elections in Pennsyl.
vania, New York, Massachusetts,
Vermont and Colorado it would be
necessary for the committee to sit
during recess. To do it it would be
necessary to obtain authority from
the Senate, and as the charges came
from the minority of the mmit-
tee, the minority ought to desig-
nate the States in which the COM
mittee should continue the exam
ination. Senator Garland replied
that the minority would do this at
a meeting on Thursday, when they
would be prepared to agree upon
the terms of the resolution to be Of
fered to the Senate with view to
conducting the investigation dur
ing recess.
When the Potter Committee met
to-day, the Chairman read q sworn
statement from G. w. Wooley, of
CincinnattI, stating that he had
read the evidence of John F. Coyle
before the committee on the 18th
inst, and says that, without excep-
ton, so far as the statements of
Coyle purported to say Of him are
utterly false. The Chairman also
read letter from Alex. Thain
who, according to Coyle's testi-
mony, offered to sell the Florida
returns for 100000. He asks per-
mission to refute before the COM
mittee the charges against him. No
action was taken upon the letter.
VIM. II. Chandler asked leave to
place in the hands of the Commit
tee some papers In the handwriting
of General Barlow. One was let
ter written by him to Jas. Bell,
Monticello, Florida, introducing FL.

partment, as o man fit to be trust
ed. The other paper was MEM

THE anti.Chinese bill now only
awaits the signature of the Presi-
dent TO become law. The San
Francisco Chamber OF Commerce
yesterday memorialized President
Hayes in favor of his signing the
bill. An immense clamor, origi.
mating in the Brotherhood of God
and Brotherhood of Man" portion
of the Republican party is being
brought to bear on the President to
prevent his signing the bill. We
are sorry that the Los Angeles
Chamber of Commerce was not got
together yesterday to second that of
San Francisco. Is it too late to do
it to-day?
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-02-25

to Miles, one of the Republican
Collectors. These letters were put
in evidence to show that, at the
time they were written, General
Barlow was working in Republican
interests. Chandler Informed the
Committee that his Florida cipher
and numerous kilograms by him to
Florida were in possession of John
I. Davenport.
Jas. Maddox, replying to Whar-
toms statement, said wharton
knew that Gov. Wells was for sale
and he proposed they should see
Packard in regard to it. They
talked the matter over with him
and $SOo,O00 was mentioned as the
sum that would be required. Pack
ard did not decline to put up the
money, but said he would take the
matter into consideration. A few
days afterwards it was suggested
| by Wharton that Packard should
promise an office to Wells. Pack
ard said he couldn't promise him
an office at that time, but that he
had done Wells many other acts OF
kindness and he must judge from
the pact what he would do in the
future.
The witness was requested to
give an account Of the Bosier m as
sacre of 1858, ut the close of whi ch

Wharton, asked, "And the com.

Answer.-Yes.
Question.-By appointment of
Mr.. Hayes, OF Ohio, is not that

Witness did not reply. Other
details were given by witness as to
the drawing up of protests. The
protests were drawn up upon evil
dencc and at1idavits of Supervisors
aud they were obtained iii some
instances only By dint of consider
able pressure. VIM. E. Anderson
refused to make his protest when
when he arrived, out subsequently,
on the same day, he made one.
On the following day he repudi.
ated it. On the 18th he re-adopted d
it and on the 23d it was transmit.
ted by letter to the Returning
Board. Witness testified that he
had the original of the writ and
