York City.
New YORK, Feb. 13.-Investigation of the
charges against Johr F. Davenport, United
States commissioner and chief supervisor of
elections, has been dragging along nearly
two years A mass of testimony has been
taken before United States Commissioner Ly
MAJ. Davenport has put In large amount
of documentary evidence and few witnesses
have been examined on his behalf Yesterday
witness was called who gave evidence of d
startling nature. Much has been said about
the naturalization frauds practiced in the su-
perior and supreme courts in 1888, but up to
Yesterday no witness fully cognizant of the
manner in which the frauds were conducted
had been called on to testify. When the pro-
ceedings began yesterday Davenport placed on
the stand Pat Goff In answer to question
put by Davenport, he testified as follows: "I
was engaged in obtaining naturalization pa
pers and certificates from the superior and SUI
preme courts in New York in
1868 obtained between 5000 and 10000
certificates in the names of various people.

nished me daily. There were eighteen or
twenty clerks in the basement of the city hall
who were under salary. divided the names

plications, putting in the addresses. There
were no residences written opposite the names
on the list forwarded me, and theresidcnees
put on the applications were fictitious Tbs
clerk wrote In name as witness for the persons
named.
At this stage of the proceedings counsel
retained. by Tammany hall objected
to the witness answering furtner questions
in reference to the papers, unless the orig.
inal papers were produced. The commission.

The Milwaukee & St. Paul River division,
and Chicago line was cleared of snow yester-
day.
The two Northern Pacific trains due from
Fargo and Bismarck Saturday evening, the
one twelve and the other eight hours late.
Last evenings train went out on time, and
the road was reported clear.
The st. P, NJ. & NJ. train from Brecken-
ridge, due here at Z P. NJ, Saturday, was ex-
pected to arrive here at o'clock this morn
ing. The train which left here for Brecken-
ridge Saturday morning. arrived at Brecken-
ridge about 10 O'Clock last evening. The
last evening train for, Fargo, was, sent on
time, and both the main lines were reported
clear. The Morris & Browns Valley branch
is badly showed under, and with favorable
weather cannot well be opened before satur-
day night.
The St. Paul & Omaha's Chicago train was
sent out on time last evening, with all delayed
trains in and the Chicago North Wisconsin,
River Falls and saltwater roads all reported
open.
All trains of to-day for the East and North
will probably leave on schedule time and 60
through without serious delays.
The Iowa & Minnesota and Hastings & Da-
kota roads are still partly closed.
A train from Blue Earth City came into
Mankato yesterday.
The st. Paul division of the St. Paul &
Omaha line was reopened yesterday to Madelia,
and, the shovelers being kept at work through
last night, it was expected to reopen the line
TO st. James by daylight this morning. The
St. Paul s. Nebraska divisions and branches
were still blockaded at s o'clock last
evening, but the work of removing obstruc-
tions is being vigorously prosecuted. The
relief party sent from st. James Saturday
morning to convey provisions on handsleds
to the working train stalled Friday about nine
miles west of st. James yesterday forenoon
and reported their mission accomplished; but
the stalled train was fairly buried under the
snow and local storm, prevailing along the
line for few miles east and west of the buried
train, was nearly as bad as the general bliz-
zard of Friday and Saturday. Nevertheless it
is hoped that the track may be so far cleared
to-day as to allow of the train and passengers
now blockaded at Mountain Lake for fourteen
days being brought out tonight. Passenger
trains will leave for st. James and Blue Earth
this m uOrninp and in the afternoon

Sad Case of Accidental Shooting in Chi
CagO.

CHICAGO, Feb ia sad case of accidental
shooting through careless use of firearms
occurred on the West side tonight, whereby
Edward H. Henning of Hamilton, Ont, was
killed by his friend, Chas. J. Smith, clerk in
the audit Office of the Chicago & Alton rail-
road company. Henning was on a visit to
Smith, the two having been chums before,
Smith left Hamilton for Chicago.
Tonight they had been to see
a border drama in which
pistols were freely used. On returning to
Smiths room conversation turned on the state
of society, in which pistols settled all the
dispute. and Henning showed his
friend his revolver, one of the self
cooking pattern. Smith took the revolver in
his hand and laughingly threw his arms about
his chums neck when it exploded and sent
9S calibrs bullet through .Henning's brain.
Both young men come of good families and
Smith is almost insane over his fatal though
unintentional act.

GERMAN SOCIALISM.
Movement to Secure Aid for the Party in
This Country.


New YORK, Feb IA mass meeting at
Irving hall this afternoon, attended by 5000
Germans, men and women, was addressed by
]. w. Fritzche, of the Reichstag, and Louis
Vicercke, socialists, who recently arrived in
this country, and by John Swinton. Herr
Fritzche was greeted with round after round
of applause. The speaker addressed the vast
audience in German, reviewing the present
political condition in Germany, and comment
ing upon the animosity shown by the ruling
powers toward the socialistic party, which
party Notwithstanding was gaining in numbers
those who characterized others as towards be-
cause they would not at once take up arms
against the government, which the speak
er showed would be suicidal. In
time, however, the army would be
impregnated with socialistic principles
It would itself turn against the government,
and thus their object and aim would be ac-
complishea without bloodshed. The object
and aim of the government in passing laws
against socialism was with a view of angering
the socialists into taking up arms, when the
army would be turned upon them. In con.
Guiding he alluded to the assistance the Irish
people had given Parnell, and appealed to the
Germans of this country to render the social
lists like aid in carrying their election.
John SwInton spoke IN English and paid a
high tribute to the ability and energy display.

We have already pointed oUt in these col

manufacture OF cotton, the iron Industry.
the production of wool, the building of rail-
roads, etc. There is every indication that
this progress, which has been general will
continue. Ithas already been demonstrated
what in fact needed no demonstration, that
the coarser grades of cotton goods can be
made cheaper in factories near the field than
in distant mills. Hence Southern cotton
mills are rapidly increasing in number and
capacity, and from making the coarser
grades Southern manufacturers must in
time advance to the making of finer goods,
though perhaps not the finest. The chief
obstacle to production of wool in the South
has been the cost of feeding the sheep, But
there Is every prospect that this difficulty
will be overcome by the conversion into
the nutritious food of what has heretofore
been waste in the cotton plant. Tbs ma
chinery for this purpose has already been,
perfected, and when this. with ensilages,
shall come into general use, there will be no
