Letter From the National Cspital-5ena
tors Fair, STAFFORD and Sawyer.

WAsHINsToS, April 25.--It ia a little odd
that the three weslihiesl men OF the Senate
should al have come from the came section
OF the country. That strip of country stretch
ing from the southern end OF Lake Michi-
gan up the western shore of that body of
water, seems adapted 10 the development OF
wealthy men. The three wealthiest mea in
the Senate have all lived in little section OF
this great country running along the lake
shore, only a couple or three hours ride by
rail. Senator Stanford, Senator Sawyer, and
SeaBtor Fair are the three men referred to,
ard their wealth is estimated TO a sgregate
100000 900. They are the interesting figures
in the Senate. Stanford, who is now con.
coded the wealthisst man in that body, went
TO Wise nsin VI n q young man, and set

naming until the gold fever of 1919 carried

North and the South resolved itself into
this slavery or disunion, or no slavery

The third point made by our correspond
ent, and the one which be regards as con-
elusive evidence that the letter is fabrics-
lion, is still lsss satisfactory than the others.
Grant writes on April 10: "The news to-
dsy is that Virginia has gone out of the
Union" Our correspondent says that Vir-
giDia did not eocede until the 18th. That Is
the date on which Virginia adopted her con
yention with tbs Confederate States. AS a
matter of fact, the ordinance of secession

ere not only its wealthies' men but ara all
possessed OF ability which they might Claim
and take q much higher rank in the every
day work of that body than they do.
Whether it is characteristic of millionaires
to be modest your correspondent does not
attempt TO say, but this is the case with
these particular men. They are not on thsir
feet as many times in al entire session as
some of their less wealthy fellow Senat DIS
are in day. In the matter of dress tn ~
are quite as modest as in their statesman
ship. A quiet suit OF some dark material,
