NEW YORK, May 2O.-In the Grant &
Ward reference case to-day Mr.. Bangs
produced book which Ward SAID he re-
cognized. Ii proved to bea book in which
the famous contracts were recorded. The
entries were written in Wards hand
writing in black and white. The word
settled" appeared across the face OF each
in red ink IN Fish's handwriting. The
contracts were numbered from to 233,
beginning in April, 1882. and ended in
May, 1884. Occasionally other words APP.
peared in Fisll's writing, 9s profit" and
date when paid. Each contract was
also labelled as "pork." "cOrn," oats y
and the like, referring to it, nature.
Among the parties with whom contracts
were made were the Manhattan Com
pany. Mystic-Riler National Bank, st.
Nicholas Bank, Wyndham National Bank,
Second National Bank, Lincoln Ma
tional, and others. Grant & Wards notes
were endorsed by Ward himself IN
order to get money on them. The
manner Of discounting paper at these
banks Ward could not remember. The
profits, Ward testified, were simply writ
ten down as the person estimating them
might please. They were imaginary, and
could be put at any figure. Contract No.
233 had the words opposite, &C. Il W.
take this" Ward said that Grant & Ward
did not take anything that he wrote the
words himself, but did not remember any
thing about it. The imaginary profit on
this was 100000. Opposite one Of the
contracts were the initials &C. A. A."
Witness, however, said that President Ar
thur had no interest whatever. Many
Of the contracts and letters were merely
private work. There was no system OF
the division OF the profits when any
accrued, but Ward admitted he usually
got his share. Fish was the one who de-
termined what interest each one had in
the contract business, and his decisions in
these cases were arbitrary and unques-
toned. When a man was taken into these
contract operations he was given paper
which contained instructions. The I'M
initiated could only get in through him.
self and Fish. but principally through
Fish. When Ward made the transfer of
$500, 900 to Warner he said he did not
make any estimate OF the profits in the
transaction. He did not know what the
value of the securities was; 1t might have
been $4,000, 900; he did not know.
Davies filed in evidence schedule OF
collaterals left by creditors with the firm.
Ward was served with subpoena to
testify before the grand jury as he entered
the reference-room to-day.

Remarkable Adventure and Narrow
Escape OF q Woman During u Gale.

A Newport Or. H. SPECIAL OF Monday
says: The adventure OF Mrs. Stuve, wife
Of Captain J. NJ. Stuve, OF Bristol. is the
sensation OF the hour in this vicinity.
Captain John started in his two-masted
boat, carrying four persons to Providence
Island, taking his wife in the boat with
him. He arrived in Potter's Cove about
O'Clock. anchored his boat, and taxing a
small skif, landed his passengers, leaving
his wife on board. The passengers on land
ing, being unacquainted with the island and
the night being dark, requested the skip
per TO go up to the house with them,
which be did. On returning be found
that the tide had floated his skiff away. In
the morning the boat also had disappeared,
and he came to the SOrrowful conclusion
that his wife was lost IN the gale which
had prevailed during the night. Twenty
hours afterward the boat, with signal OF
distress, was seen of COnanicut Point,
and upon going to the rescue it was found
to contain the shippers wife. When the
wind sprung up the boat dragged her
anchor and drifted about the bay. II was
very dark until toward morning, when the
anchor finally caught in rock, and Mrs.
Stuve took in the sail, hauled up the cen
tre-board, and made things snug, after
ward hanging out her signal Of distress.

sion was two miles long, and there were
twenty thousand people present. The

and that the votes Of not,,ra,i,ed c,tIxens

and that the votes OF naturalized citizens
and others were frauduicntly rejected.
Mr. Hart, OF Ohio, presented the grounds
on which the contestec, Pcelle, bases his
cain 10 seat, and controyerted the as
sertlon made by the majority, contendirg
that they had no foundation on which 10
rest.
In advocating the claims OF the con-
testant, Dir. Lowry, OF Indiana. alluded to
certain language used by j. S. Wise. OF
virginia, when the O'Ferrall-Paul case
was under consideration, 10 the effect that
Virginia Bourbon was riding into
Congress on the back OF one Of
Barnum's Indiana mules. He sup
posed that that remark was founded
upon the legend that the chairman,
Mr.. Barnum, had once telegraphed to
Indiana concerning some mules. In view
OF the spectacle which the gentleman from
Virginia presented on this floor he appre-
hended that II Mr.. Barnum had been tele-
graphing TO Virginia for an animal Of q
lower order he wovld have telegraphed
for one still more brutal in its instincts
than mule.
Mr.. Wise (who had been in one OF the
closk-rooms) came into the House, and in-
quired what case was under considera-
tion--his case, or that OF Englsh-Peelle?
Mr.. Lowry replied that he was now dis
cussing the English-Peelle case. When he
came to the consideration OF the gentle
mems case he would consider and deter
mine 1t according TO his conscience, not
withstaading he understood that the gen.
tleman plumed himself upon his courage
and the practice OF rules OF honor accord
ing TO the code.
Mr.. Wise asked that the words be taken
down, and the clerk read Mr.. Lowry's last
words.
The Speaker ruled that they were not un-
parliamentary.
Mr.. Wise said that that was not the Lam
guage TO which he referred. While in the
lobby he had heard the speaker make an
allusion to Barnum's mule from Indiana.
which he appeared to have accepted as the
description OF himself. The gentleman
had spoken OF member as having in
stincts lower than mule. 1t was that an-
gusge which he desired have taken
The Speaker said that the proper time
for that request had passed.
Mr.. Wise: | waive all points, and re-
serve the privilege OF personal eXplana-
ton hereafter.
Mr.. Lowry then proceeded with his ar
gument. In the course OF his remarks he
referred to Thomas \. Hendricks. Per-
haps some OF his Republican friends had
heard OF that gentleman as having been
the successful candidate for the Vice.
Presidency in 1876
Mr.. Reid, OF Maine, disclaimed any
knowledge Of the gentleman in that con-
nection.
Mr.. Lowry retOrted by intimating that
Mr.. Hendricks might be heard OF as elected
to the same office in 1884 IN connection
with the great heart of the Democratic
party Samuel J. Tilden.
Mr.. Hiscock, OF New York, suggested
that this discussion should be carried on
in cypher; which suggestion was received
by sundry calculations OF "Tattooed

The English Franchise Bill.
fBy cable to the Dispatch.l


LONDON, May 20.-The extension OF the
franchise bill was considered by the House
Of Commons to-day in the Committee of
the Whole. Lord Randolph Churchill in
speech strongly disagreed with the
amendment OF Mr.. Brodrick, Conservative,
to exclude Ireland from the operation OF
the bill. This announcement was greeted
with cheers by the Liberals.l
Lord Randolph said that although be
objected to the bill strongly on account OF
some OF its provisions, he thought the
position taken by the Government was
statesmanike. He had no fear OF the
result of the acknowledgements OF the Irish
agricultural laborer, and expressed the
hope that the Conservatives would not
ALLEVIATE the good opinion OF the Irish by
supporting Brodrick's amendment.
Lord George Hamilton asked Lord Ran.
dolph Churchill what he was really driving
at. IL, he said, this was the statement OF
the Democratic toryism OF the future, then
he declined to follow under such leader
ship. He contended it was introduced to
suit the eXigencies OF Liberals. Its appli-
cation to Ireland would result in reopen
ing the flood. gates of agitation.
Mr.. Brodrick's amendment was rejected
by vote Of 1872 to 1877.
Lord Randolph Churchill. Mr.. Gorst,
and several other Conservatives, and all
the Parnellites voted for the Government.
Sir Stafford Northcote and many of his
Conservative followers quilted the House
before the division was taken. Lord
George Hamilton's attack on Lord Ran
dolph Churchill caused considerable ex-
element in the House. The matter is the
subject of general conversation, and gives
rise to renewal of the report that Lord
Randolph Churchill is at variance with the
Conservative leaders.
