fectly legal and proper. His examination

fectly legal and proper. His examination
closed here.
Joseph Hence, deputy State Treasurer at
Albany, N. Y. next examined, was i'm New
York two weeks prior to the elections of 1876
While there he was most OF the time about the
Democratic headquarters, at the Everett
House, and at No. Is Gramercy Park. He
was clerk In the executive office at Albany,
and went to New York on leave OF absence
for pleasure. He was not sent there to look
| after or transact any business relating to the
| elections. The witness was question d close
ly, but had no very clear recollection OF the
ciper kilograms or other papers.
JDO. T. Coyle was recalled and asked how IT.
was that certain cipher dispatches shown b m
were sent in his name. He couldn't say. he
didn't know the handwriting, nor the author
ity upon which they were sent. Pelton was
the controlling spirit about the Democratic
headquarters
Ex-Controller Thomas C. Dunn, formerly
chairman of the South Carolina Returning
Board, but now OF Boston, the next witness,
said he was called at his own vOlition with the
desire to pronounce the statements made by
Smith Weed, recently before the sub-com-
mittee In New York, false He then went on
to say that during the meeting OF the board
at Columbia Henry SOlomons, grocer there
and q former Republican, went to witness
and said he was authorized by leading Demo-
Gratis to see and ascertain whether or not the
vote OF a majority OF the board could not be
made in favor OF Tilden. SolomDDs said the
request was made because there was great
danger OF bloodshed and anarchy unless
a peaceful solution was arrived at. He
said further to witness that the Democrats
could call out 40,0 900 armed men to assist Til
denis claim in two hours notice; that the
State was to be carried for him anyhow, and
1t was better to settle matters by gold instead
OF steel. The witness told him that such
proposition was utterly useless. Hayes was
elected, and the board would unquestionably
refuse to accede. Solomons refused to give
such answer to those who sent him, belev-
ing, he said, that the witness and board would
change their motion on rejecting, and said he
would see him again next night. This was at
the house OF witness Next day witness told
Gov Chamberlain all about it.. His object In
doing that was that ii any attempt should
be made to deny the proposition by
those on the other side he would have good
person to back up his integrity. After giving
a detailed statement OF SOlomons' action,
with a view to securing the vote OF the State
for Tilden, the statement made by Weed, he
said, before the committee In New York, that
he saw the witness talking with SolomonS
and then repeating the conversations to
other members of the board, was false.
Solomons never talked with him in the pres
ence OF any living soul, and he had never
mentioned what Solomons and he had talked
OF to a single member of the committee.
Furthermore, he never saw Weed in Colum-
bia
The committee adjourned until tomorrow
