THE BRIBERY CASE.

The bribery investigation committee met
early this morning. Francis III. Bangs,
of New York, appeared as counsel for the
committee. He explained that he had
been called upon very suddenly and had
not had opportunity to examine the testi-
mony and proposed that the committee
take a recess in order to enable him to do
so, after some discussion during which a
desire to proceed as fast as possible with
the investigation was manifested. 1t was
decided that what Bangs asked was neces-
sary and that when the committee ad-
journed it would be until o'clock Mon
day morning. William K. Tremble
assemblyman for the Twenty-irst New
York district, testified that a man named
Edwards visited him in his room at the ho-
tel and, introducing the senatorial ques-
ton, asked witness why he persisted in
voting for Conkling and Platt when there
was no chance of electing them. Witness
replied that he didn't agree with Edwards
as to the latter statement. Edwards next
INQUIRED what witness expenses
were, meaning election expenses, Witness
told him about 81 900. Edwards then said,
if the friends of Depew would pay these
expenses, whether witness would change
his vote; the proposition was declined A
few unimportant questions were. asked
witness and the committee adjourned.

Dulin and Vaughn Acquitted.

Ned Dnlin and Emps Vaughn, the
negro men implicated by Henry
johnson, as the murdercrs of Isham
Dulin, were tried last Saturday be.
fore Judge Long and acquitted. The
testimony pointed towards the boy
johnson as the guilty party. Ills
statements made in the Jail aud also
al the trial were not corroborated By
any other testimony. The evidence
went to show that johnson had sto-
len lsham Dulin's gun aud steps
were being taken by Dulin TO haye
him arrested, This snppliedthe mo.
tive for the deed. Johnson admitted
being present at the killing, bdt
claimed that the shooting was done
by Ned Dulin. HIS testimony did
not consist with what no told at the
first trial. After hearing the evil
,lence of y large number Of witnesses,
Judge Long discharged Dniin and
Vaughn aud held johnson without

citizens Of the neighborhood stated
to us that the prevailing opinion is
That Ned Dulin killed his father, aud

This cannot be shown, however, and
