that he had gone to the document room

the report had not yet been received.
Then Messrs. Kenna and Cox, of New
York, rose respectively to a parliamentary
scene ensued, which continued for some
time.
Mr.. Cox insisted that he had made a mo-
tioh to adjourn, Mr.. Hazleton having yielded
to him for that purpose, which he had never
withdrawn, "and Ito the Speaker you know
it."
Mr.. Page, of California, rose excitedly
and demanded that the gentleman from
New York should be respectful to the
Chair. Derisive laughter and shouts of
GOAL OH ob'' on the Democratic side.
Mr.. Cox to Mr.. Page-YOu cannot lecture
me. You are not the Speaker.
The Speaker stated that Mr.. Cox had
withdrawn his motion to adjourn, and there
fore he had not been entitled to the floor.
Mr.. Cox asked to make statement in re-
ply, but the Speaker stated that he had
already made his statement, and the Chair
was willing that the two statements should
stand side by side.
Mr.. Reed then moved to adjourn and the
Speaker proceeded to put the question, not
withstanding Mr.. Cox's efforts to be heard.
"Well," said Cox, f'that is what call

THE WHISKY RING.
The InvesrIga,lOn Continued.

WASHINGTON, June SENATOR Windom's
whisky ring investigating committee to-day
heard j. NJ. Atherton, of Louisville, KY,
whose utterances to a Louisville CONNER
ciGt reporter, called this committee into ex-
istence. Witness is a member of the execu-
tive committee of the Kentucky Dlstillers'
Association, and gave the committee a his
tory OF the formation and purposes of that
association. Their income was derived
from membership dues, which are $25
per annum for each member. The associa-
tion employed Colonel Wharton for one year
from January, 1882, at a salary OF S., 900, to
look after their interests and represent them
before Congress. The association had never
employed anyone else or paid any money to
secure influences In Congress or elsewhere.
When witness was in Washington In
January last offers of assistance
were made by certain gentlemen in pre-
pairing bill to be presented to Congress,
but their offers were declined. Witness was
asked who the parties were, and positively
declined to give their names.
Mr.. Hswley said it had been reported that
applications were made to distillers for en-
ployment In pressing these matters upon
Congress, and by newspaper men among
others. 1t was intimated that the distillers
were told that II they did not make dis
bursements in some form to press CORE
spondents among others, the measure sought
would be defeated. Now, some of the gen
tlemeu OF the press, ,and they as body are as
honorable as the people of any other pro-
fession, said that IL an investigation should
be made they hoped that any such conduct,
Ii such there was, would be fully exposed.
This they desired for the honor of their
calling, and Mr.. Atherton will oblige them
by exposing any attempts or suggestions of
the kind.
Mr.. Atherton explained that he had never
been approached by newspaper correspond
ents on the subject, nor had he ever received
from any newspaper man an intimation that
II certain correspondents were not feed, they
would kill the bill. Any such assertion was
utterly false. The gentlemen who had made
offers of assistance had done so
in good faith. He presumed, of
course, they expected, If retained,
to be paid for their services, but they had
not mentioned the name of single Senator,
member or government official or intimated
that they might improperly control any in
fueDce in Congress. II such had been the
case he could not hesitate to expose them,
but he did not feel justified In dragging
in the name of honorable gentlemen
and exposing them to unjust censure.
Argument and persuasion failed to move
the witness from this position, and when the
commission adjourned it had gained no
further information. The commission is
now considering the advlsability of adopt
ing compulsory methods of extraction.

OUTRAGES IN IRELAND.
A Theory OF n Wise Ex-MayOr of
Liverpool

LONDON, June 1.-Mr. Forwood, late
Mayor OF Liverpool, writes to the Times that
his experience during the Fenian activity
convinces him that the outrages in Ireland
are perpetrated by hirelings of the small
knot of Fenians in America. To suppress
these, he says, American cooperation is
indispensable. This can only be secured by
showing that the American conspirators are
distinct organization from the Irish
Nationalists, and can be dealt with without
interfe ing with the Irish vote. England
has a right TO ask America to strangle
Fenianism in the place of its birth.
