Senator Sessions Testimony.
ALBANY, June 15.~-This morning Sena-
tor Sessions testified that he knew of no
legislator receiving a bride in any Legisla-
ture; had no idea as to whether legislators
could be so influenced; had no reason to
believe that Bradley's vote could be in1u-
enced by money, or that he was dishonest;
he believed him to be honest; when he first
talked with Bradley the latter said, May
be you won't be disappointed in my final
VOTE" which witness construed to mean
that Bradley was voting to please some
Grant men in his district, and would finally
vote for Depew; he did not know that Bar
Der, with whom no had had several talks
in Woodin's rooms, was in the pay Of the
Central Railroad, and never heard any
thing about the Central Railroad in his
rooms; had seen several games of cards
played in his rooms for q 25-cent raise;
couldn't swear to seeing Depew in BARRIERS
rooms since May 30; had bought some
stocks this year through Spencer, Trask &
Co.; did not know that Depew kept his &C.
count there.
Bangs offered in evidence two articles
published in the New York Tribune in May
and June, 1879, d~enouncing Sessions.
Pending the discussion as to their admis-
sion the committee took a recess.
A Sickening Sight.
CHICAGO, June 15.-Yesterday afternoon
about 4 O'Clock, a gentleman walking on
Pine street was Mortified to find at the
base of the water works tower the body Of
a man with his head jammed into the
ground nearly a foot and his neck broken.
He gave the alarm and a crowd quickly
gathered. While they were wondering
and specializing upon the sickening sight,
q German named Victor Gangelin rushed
out from the tower and, pale with fright,
told the following story, During the aft
ernoon he had come across the deceased,
who gave him the name Of Hugo Won
Malapert. and who said he was shipping
clerk for a firm at 176 East Adams street.
Malapart proposed that they should take
a walk up to the top Of the tower, which
they did. As they were coming down, and
had made about one-third of the distance,
the deceased said that he had left his
handkerchief at the top, and went back,
while his companion waited. He was gone
80 long that Gangelin became alarmed and
reascended the stairs. Finding no signs
OF him, he quickly ran down, and found
that Malapert had jumped from the top,
1870 feet, to the ground, and lay dead at
the foot Of the tower.
Grant and the Administration.
WASHINGTON, June 14.-General Grants
outspoken condemnation Of the Admins
tration has added force to the whispering
that Stalwart Congressman will, after Con-
gress meets, antagonize the Administration.
The talk seems to have come from disap-
pointed oHRce-seekers, but Grants open op-
position creates the impression that it will
be done. A prominent C~onklingite to-day
said that the PURPOSE Of Grant, Conkling
and their friends win be to drive Blaine
from the Cabinet for threatening to dis
turb the Republican supremacy in the Sen.
ate and House. The Administration thinks
slightingly of this talk, and is confident
that two Administration men will be re-
turned in the place of Conkling and Plat.
The Wyoming Miscegenation Case.
CHEYENNE. June 14-The famous mis-
~cegenation case, wherein q Chinaman and a
white woman were indicted for intermar-
riage, the ceremony having been performed
in Colorado, was decided to-day by Chief
Justice Sever. The Court held that the
marriage being legal in Colorado it was
legal here under the statutes, and defend
ants were finally discharged. A curious
outgrowth Of the case Is that the China
men here lave ostracissd the bold groom,
Lee Chin, and claim that he disgraced
their race by marrying a white woman.
