and gigantic mares nest will have to be
prepared for the committee to pick solcmnly TO
pieces.
The review made in these dispatches last night at
the close of the first weeks work, makes II unnrcrs
sary to 20 over that ground again II was shown
then that nothing had been brought ont tending III

cruva,,. This statement is equally truo now.
The committee started IN AZ the bceln-
uug with Bradley and has come oui at
the end with Bradley, or what there IL left OF
. him. hatiu. certainly gained nothing by the way
The only interesting political disclosure the cont
mit,cc has been able to make made in the trNii-

interesting than Important The story was. III brief
| that he was tclcTlphcd for hy John !. Davenport
to como to Ncw-York on May Is and that pa-

| Marsha,lnp for the Southern District OF New

asked him whether hc would Ice expected
to support she Administration If there was contest
over the clrCtiuu of Senators, and Mr.. Davenport
said " suppose So" The senator then said hr did

told him To take the night to think IT over and let
him know early in the morning Tn" Senator did

the offer. In giving thc conversation with ln'cn-
port senator Strllan let drop that hr had then pro
nounccd the lctrro resignation printed ia the papers
| of that morning inadequate to the action taken
and to the clucncc, which would ilow from 1t.
The further NaiuuIton made II clear that the onrr
was made at q time when IT was u" known whether
