ATTACK ON SECRETARY MANNING.

StrateS its Absurdity

EN-Senato Thomas j. Creamer Demon
strates Its Absurdity.
NEw YORK, March 9-"Yes,' said en-
Senator Thomas J. Cresmer Yesterday. 81
was Chairman of the Senate Committee on
Printing for the four years that Tweed was
o Senator For the first two years | was
not even on speaking terms with Tweed"
The Tribune said his interlocutor. IRE,
publishes extracts rejecting on Daniel Man
ming from Mr. Tweed's testimony before an
Aldermanic investigating committee, taken
September 29, 1877. What do you know
about itY
We'll" Mr. Creamer replied, 81 know
that the Argus had the State printing. and
that Mr., Tweed had no influence whatever
on my committee nor did he ever try to in-
teriere with its work. He always confined
himself to New York City affairs. Mr..
Manning was a reporter in the Senate dur
ing the four years. never saw him speak
to Tweed in my life, nor do believe that
their relations were intimate. The print
ing bills of the Argus took the same
course, as the printing bills OF the Journal.
Henry c. Murphy was the controlling spirit
Of the Finance Committee in the Senate
and Tweed was never big enough TO control
him. His talked before the investigating
committee was wild. He mightas Sell talk
about controlling the court that tried him.
Tweed was in prison at the time of the in
vestigation. and was being squeezed to the
utmost under promise Of release. When
his testimony was spread before the Attor-
ney General, Mr. Fairchild declared that
there was nothing in il, and refused to re-
lease him. Tweed then saw he had been
duped for political effect, and regretted
what he had said to the last hour Of his
lie"
Did you notice that Tweed said that the
brother of the editor Of the Argus was put
upon the pay roll. and drew money for
wears which was charged TO the Argus;

Ambrose Cassidy, brother of William, was
put in the Street Department when Charles
q. Cornell was Street Commissioner, at the
request of Peter Cagger, who WAS on the
State Committee with Cornell. This was in
1868, aud long before Tweed appeared in
State politics II only shows how Wild
Tweed was talking under the pressure

In Texas stin Continues With No Signs Of
Let Up.
DALLAS, Ten, March S.-Passenger
trains on the Texas Pacific arrived today
nom opposite directions without Interrupt
ton. Railroad men admit the strike has
reached the most critical juncture. A re.
port is cure Mt that Gov. Ireland has been
asked TO send troops 10 break the deadlock
along the Texas Pacific, but rsfased to COM
ply for the same reasons given for not
calling the militia into action to
suppress fence cutting. The railroad
men claim that the State is as responsible
for loss arising out oil the restraint CT their
property as the city of Pittsburg for the
destruction OF property during the riots.
The mass of the people north Of Texas
svmpathize with the strikers and their
methods. II necessity arose for an lmmed-
late action it is doubtful if the militia would
respond. An agent Of the labor
Unions passed through Dallas to-day,
eDroute for Fort Wayne where
thew propose to make this their head
quarters for the circulation OF petitions ap-
resEpr to Congress and the Legislature OF
The several States for immediate legislation
against the tyranny of unrestrained cspi-
tai.
At Marshall.
MARSHALL, March S.-The strikers last
night sent man to Boyce, Louisiana on
tie Missouri Pacific road to bring engines
from there. He disabled two engines and
brought one TO Marshall where the fire was
drawn. This puts a stop to shipping freight
fIom Shreveport to New Orleans. Quiet
and order still prevails among the strikers
LonENiew.
LoNryIEw, March S.-All classes OF clii'
zens sympathize with the strikers aud are
rendering them every reasonable assistance,
Bu, few section men are at work. The risk
of passenger travel is thereby increased.
Al DeDison there is no change IN the strike
everything being quis' The bridge on the
Missouri Pacific, near Durant, Indian Ter
rilory, was burned last night. The strikers
allow ed the company TO tale the material
