KEIFER VS.. BOYNTON.

Testimony of Several Correspondents Regard
ing the Ex-Speaker's Visit to the Latter.
WASHINGTON, March Am the Keifer- Boyn-
ton investigation to-day General Swain was
called to testify to the character of Charles S
Garfield, but it turned out that he was ulr,c-
quainted with him.
Mr. McGarraghan was recalled but his testi-
mony was without interest.
John Carson, correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Ledger, and clerk of the ways and means
committee of the Forty seventh Congress- was
the next witness. Saw General Boynton ON the
night of March l about u o'clock, when the
conference of the committee the tariff bill
adjourned and witness walked down with Boyn
ton to his Office, and dictated to Wynne and Bar
rett the action of the committee as far as any
had been taken.
w E Barrett of the Boston Advertiser, tesh
fed to being in Bovnton'S office on the night of
March l. and seeing Mr.. Keifer there Boynton
and Keifer were discussing the general action of
the conference committee and what the probable
result would be- The witness detailed the con
versation which he had on the last night of the
session with Speaker Keifer in which the latter
made use of the expression, Il don't care God
damn for the press" He had told General
Boynton about the conversation.
Charles 3. Ketcham, Of the Associated Press,
WoS Cdlietj duu Sldl6u lildl III 4htfCu, 1909, ne
was correspondent of the Kansas City Journal.
He was in Boyntons office OH the night of March
l, and saw Keifer there. Did not hear the con
versation which took place between them.
Louis OShaughnessy stated that in March,
1858 he was staff correspondent of the CONNER
cial Gazette. He corroborated the testimony of
the previous witnesses as to Kiefer's presence in
BoyntOns Office on the night of March l. This
witness created good deal of amusement by
the terse and direct manner in which he an
swered the questions propounded on the loss
examination, and by a statement of the mode by
which he could recall the exact date of conver-
stations in Boynton's Office He recalled it
through the fact that on that night he was en-
gagged in looking up the Tabor wedding and the
whisky bill
a. NJ. Gibson testified that ]. w. Elders repu-
tation for truth and veracty was not good.

fed to Elders bad reputation in Washington.

shot, and believed but for that shot no negroes
would have been killed that day. He knew
Hatcher had denied having been armed. The
witness knew as we'll as he knew he lived that
Hatcher had pistol and fired it. The witness
voted the straight Democratic ticket He saw
nothing on the day of the riot to indicate that
the whites were in danger, Nothing which he
saw justified the statement that the whites fired
in selfdefense The colorcd men We're in the
habitof carrying arms They had drawn their
pistols on him.
J. H. Johnson, mayor of Danville, testified a
message was sent him by a Democratic friend
that there was going to be trouble. The mes
sage was brought by one Coleman, who said GER
tain things.
Senator Vance objected on the ground that it
was second hand hearsay."
Senator Sherman said Coleman was Demo
crat, and he thought it was res geste.
Witness-"Oh, he's no Readiuster"
The witness did not call out the colored com
pany after the riot, because he knew the whites
would kill them. If a negro had shown himself
on the street there would have been a million
holes in him. The whites told him they would
shoot them.

The Greatness Thrust Upon Him 10y the Con-
duct of Prince Bismarck.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, March 4.-The refusal of Prince
Bismarck to accept the resolution of the House
on the death of Herr Lasler has made its author,
Representative Tom Ochiltree, of the Galveston,
Tex, district, big man in the eyes of the coun-
try and it may lead says rumor, to his nomina
ton for Governor of Texas, and to his election
as United States senator Ochiltree is a native
Texan He is red-haired and stout, and about
forty years old; is cross in one eye, plays good
game of billiards, but often loses at draw He
has the reputation of being an extravagant pre-
varicator, but hits the truth as often as most
statesmen and is generous and good natured
He claims intimate friendship and acquaintance
with the crowned heads of Europe and the con
tinent, and chums with General Grant, his sons
and Roscoe Conkling
Ochiltree is no fool; he is, indeed a man of
sense. At first his friends supposed he would be
a subject of ridicule in the House. but, to their
surprise, he has conducted himself with not only
discretion, but as a man of unusual intelligence
both in committees and on the floor of the House
He may be a much bigger man yet.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-Senator Sherman
expressed the opinion tonight that the exposure
made of the Democratic villainy by the Danville
and Copiah investigation would have the effect
of securing not only Virginia but the Carolinas
and some other Southern States to the Republican
party this fall. He thinks the fact that the Re
publicans have thrown the veil off the diabolism
of the Democratic party in the South, and that
they propose to stand by the black men at the
polls will have the effect of giving them an as
surance that will bring out the full colored vote
for the Republicans, and that the Republican
nominees will carry several southern States

After a Contest of Varying Fortunes,
the Bears Are Defeated.
The Advance Calls Out Heavy Offerings of

Special to the Indianapolis journal.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
CHICAGO, March 4.-The markets on Change
to-day were moderately active Wheat and corn
got into rut and remained there Bulls" and
"bears' took turn at the market alternately,
and the former came out victorious, those in
wheat being helped by the decrease of 6OO,O0
bushels in the visible supply. Wheat showed
IN advance of 3-Se and corn 1-SG3-8c. Pro
visions were manipulated by packers, and out
side operators were backward about taking hold.
Wheat opened strong, influenced by the cold
weather and fair buying ouside account at
97097 1-Sc for May and sold to 81 1-4c
The advance called large offerings by the
t1ongs," and prices quickly declined to 96 3-8c
The shorts began buying at the bottom, and,
with reports of better cables, prices reacted and
closed at 97097 Sc on Change, but on the call
prices weakened under heavy offerings, to 96 78c;
later on the curb was strong at 81 1-8o. Stocks
in store, 1850, 600 bushels against 6, $4,000
bushels last year
Corn was irregular The receipts were 443
ears, LOG being contracted. The visible supply
showed an increase of 861, 900 bushels; stocks
here, 6,926,000 bushels an increase of 257 900
bushels. TrI1ing was fair with Hberal outside

garded with considerable favor for an up turn
The market is well evened up, and as there was
strong under-current, the ''shorts" appeared
backward about putting out large lines. The
market opened strong at 81 81 l-Sc, and sold up
to 81 lac, when Lester offered heavy lots and
caused decline to Sc l-2c. The ''shorts"
took hold at the decline. The
"Big Two" also purchased through brokers
and caused a reaction to SIC at the close. On
the call the feeling was easy, with light sales at
1-8c decline, but on the curb became h1mer and
closed at Sc 7-Sc.
Provisions were active, irregular and lower
Cudahy & Stevens and the packers hammered
pork from the very start, and broke May from

buyers and were followed by the small local

and declined, with moderate sales, .05 a .10c but
closed at the outside prices. Short ribs were
