New ORLEANS, Nov. 19.-In the
Senate subcommittee investigation
to-day Bernard Williams was res
called, who testified that Jim Lewis
paid his way to Washington, and
while in Washington Gov. Kellogg
gave him all the money he wanted.
Kellogg instructed the witness to
offer Murray $4,000 to 60 to Can
ada and not testify. In answer to
Senator Cameron's question as to
who was present when kellogg
told witness to offer Murray
$4,000, the witness replied,
nobody. You don't tlink that
when a man engages in that
sort of business he is foolish
enough to have anybody present? ?

to keep me from coming before the
committee. Lewis said [ would be

nection with the Confederate army
may account for his failure to collect
a pension which he claimed from the
Federal Government.

STEAMSHIP DISASTER.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 19.-The
first witness examined to-day before
United States local inspectors of
steamboats,, in reference to the re-
cent collision off Delaware break
water, was the second mate of the
Champion. This witness said the
Champion had four men on each
watch. One of them is kept at the
wheel and another on the lookout.
When three men were required to
set sail they took men from the
lookout to help, provided the
weather was clear. There
was no standing order on
the steamer against taking the
lookout from his post.
Frank jackson, who was at the
steamers wheel that night, testi-
fed that just before the collision
he saw Paul Hand, the lookout;
engaged with two others in setting
sail. This witness altered the
steamers course by order of the
Captain five or seven minutes before
the collision.
Frederick Richards, a seaman on
the Champion, testified that Paul
Hand, the Lookout, went aloft
to loosen the top sail
just before the collision. No one
that witness knew of was on the
lookout while Hand was aloft. Soon
after this he heard the alarm "Sail
ahead y This. warning was given
by the lookout, Paul Hand, but wit
ness could not tell what part of the
steamer the cry came from, but it
was forward somewhere. Imme>
diately after the cry "Sail ahead p
the collision occurred. These wit
nesses and Charles Ehler, another
seaman, ali testified that it was the
Octavia that ran into the CHAINS
pion. None of them saw any
lights on the Octavia, though after
the collision they did not look par
ticularly.
J. S. Mitchell, a passenger on
the Champion, testified that before
the steamer sank he searched for

President Hayes on the Situation.
THE Washington correspondent
Of the Cincinnati Go mmercial had a
chat with President Hayes few
days since, from which we take the
following extract:
"Branching off into political top
les, your correspondent suggested
that the indications were that the
Republican party had the support
of a solid North.
eyes," replied the President,
''the North seems to be solid. The
doubtful States nave all turned into
the Republican column this fall"
"What do you think of Indi>
ana ?"
Il think that if the election was
to-day the Republicans would carry
Indiana by from twelve to fifteen
thousand majority, and perhaps
more"
"You consider the Republicans
capable of making in Indiana about
the same ratio of gains they made
in Ohio 2"
Certainly, and why not? The
States lie side by side, and the gen.
eral character of the population is
the same. It is certainly similar to
this extent, that the same influence
and arguments that carried Ohio
for the Republicans would be apt to
carry Indiana ALSO"
"You look upon Indiana as a Re
publican State, then?"
81 do upon the public questions
now before the country, and which
were submitted to the people OF
Ohio and New York.
"Do you regar d New York as
now safely Republican ?''
Il do on National issues. The
recent election shows that very
plainly, although all the issues in-
volved were not National; they had
many State issues. Had the elec>
ton been for President I believe
New York would have gone Repub-
lican by twenty thousand majority.
AS it was, the Republicans have
won victory, and did it
under disadvantages. The nom
ination Of Cornell was a
mistake. The vote SHOWS that. He
was scratched to the extent of thou
sands of votes. He did not run
with his ticket. Had | been citi-
zen of New York I should have
voted for Cornell, but at the same
time [ think, with very many Re-
publicans, that a stronger man could
have been found to head the
ticket"
Do you regard New York as safe
for the Republican Presidential
ticket next year?"
II see no reason to doubt it. II
issues remain about as now, New
York seems reliably Republican.
When it comes to a Presidential
election [ regard New York as now
Republican, .

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The city
is full of strangers to witness the
ceremonies attending the unveiling
of the statue of General George
Ii. Thomas, by the Army of the
Cumberland. A meeting of the
Society was held this morning, and
owing to the absence of General
Sheridan, President of the So
ciety, on account of sickness,
General Jeff. G. Davis was
unanimously selected to preside
amid loud cheers. After the meet
ing adjourned a procession was
formed and proceeded to the site of
the statute, where the unveiling
ceremonies were commenced. In
the line of procession were the
Richmond Light Infantry Blues, of
Richmodd, Va, and the Norfolk
City Guards, Of Norfolk, Va, and
Alexandria Light Infantry, and
Cadets of St. Johns Academy OF
Alexandria, We. The procession
passed the Executive Mansion and
was reviewed by the President and
Cabinet, after which it proceeded tc
circle around where the statue is
placed.
The exercises were opened with
prayer, after which 8" Hail to the
Chief" by the Marine Band, and
the " Star Spangled Banner" REP,
dered by the male chorus of over
one hundred voices, accompanied by
the full Marine Band, drum corps,
battery a." of the End Artillery,
and battery &C." of the Sd Artil-
lery, formerly commanded by Gen.
Brag during the Mexican war, and
subsequently by Gen. Thomas.
These batteries were aligned on Mas
sachusetts avenue and NJ street,
guns facing eastward and were fired
by electricity, the wires being i'm
mediately under the control of
Lieut.. Swift, of the Signal Corps,
and all under the direction of L, E.
Cannon.
The statue was then unveiled by
the sculptor, and a grand hymnus was
sung by the same chorus, with cam
non accompaniment. An Grafton
was delivered by Hon. Stanley
Matthews, and the statue was ac>
cepted by President Hayes in 8
short speech.

The Knoxville Water Works Cons
missioners have employed Col S. H.
Lockett, of the University, as their
resident engineer, who will have the
superintendency of the location and
construction of all the work. It is an
excellect selection. Col Lockett is a
thoroughly competent civil engineer,
and will no doubt give entire satisfac-
ton. Besides, it will be a great ad.
vantage to the University. for, as we
learn, Col. Lockett will take his
class along in doing some of
his work for the water works,
thus giving the advantage of some
thing practical in the prosecution of
their studies. The appointment will
thus prove very beneficial all around.
The Commissioners have also de-
cided to select board of three COM
petent and reliable machinists, whose
duty it shall be 20 thoroughly inspect
all machinery to be made use of in the
erection of the woIks. The N schinists
have not been named yet.
Work was practically commenced
yesterday, as we learn, on the con-
struction Of the works, and Will go
on as rapidly IS possible. The work
on the re- ervoir proper, however,
will be begun in a few days, and the
breaking of dirt will be attended by
public ceremonies, OF which due no.
tice will be given in the papers.
