WASHINGTON, D. G., October 28, 1885.
Alex G. Bell: II
DEAR SIR: I hand you herewith an authentic
statement of facts compiled by my associate E.
n. Hill, which may interest you. The scheme to
destroy your patents was a tolerable we'll made
matter though immatured, and 1t remains to be
seen whether our reform administration will
lend itself to its contamination. Truly yours,
-. j. HALE SYPHER.
The article enclosed by Sypher was read
and proved to be identical with that of the
Worlds publication. The editors of the
Now York Tribune, World and Times, and
the Washington correspondents Of those
journals, will be examined tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-John Hale
Sypher, ex-member of congress from New
Orleans, was examined by the telephone
investigating committee today. He said
that he had suggested to E. N. Hill the com.
pilation articles mentioned in the evidence
yesterday. The article had been prepared
for the New York Tribune by its Washing
ton correspondent on September 25th,
which was prior to the preparation of the
article sent to Professor Bell. Witness sug-
gested the names of G. r. Beckwith and j.
r. Pitken, of New Orleans, as witnesses
who might furnish valuable information
concerning the Pan-Electric company.
Witness did not regard as confidential any
thing that occurred between him and Casey
Young. ave drank together, slept together,

he remarked. He had taken Hills state
ment for whatit was worth. It had been
said, "a public Office was public trust" He
believed it reflected on the character Of
theipublic offlcersswhen they got in situa-
ton of this kind.
Whitlaw Reid, of the New York Tribune,
was the next witness. He testified that the

We put our own Interpretation on facts.

ton whatever with bringing the suit?

Chairman-H Have you had any personal
feeling against Mr.. Garland in this mat
ter? 5 8
Witness-None whatever.

monstration, he said: 81.

companied by his youngest daughter, at II
o'clock this morning. They were in a spe-
cial car in charge of a committee of citi

CROP REPORTS.
The Farmers Review Prints Reports on
the Situation.

CHICAGO, April 27.-The Farmers Re-

view, based on its returns from correspond
ents: ....
The weather has been exceptionally fa-
vorabIe during the past ten days for spring
wheat seeding, and has been improved to
the utmost in Wisconsin, Iowa, Nebraska,
Minnesota and Dakota. Full one-half to
two-thirds of the entire acreage in Dakota
and Minnesota has already been seeded,
and under conditions that could hardly
have been excelled. Seeding is progress
ing favorably in Wisconsin and iowa, but
in Nebraska complaint of wet weather still
continues, and considerable land which
would otherwise have been devoted to
wheat, has gone to fax and oats. While
cations are for slightly decreased acreage
in Wisconsin and Minnesota, and a consid
cradle increase in Dakota.

LEVEL HEADED PRESIDENT.

President Cleveland's expression of
the belief that no State east of the Mis-
sissippi would stand the Mormon pro-
ceedings a month without civil war,
ought to satisfy the most suspicious Gen
tile in regard to his position upon the
Utah question. Anything which would
cause such an uprising in the Conserva-
tive States in the East ought certainly to
be efectually and summarily seuelched in
any portion of the Nation, and the Presi-
dent would never had made such an ad-
mission were it not his determination to
exert to its fullest extent his executive
power to eradicate the existing evils. It
is evident that the loyal people OF Utah
have staunch friend in the head of the
Nation, and that the tenure of Office of
any Federal appointee who truekles to
the Mormons, will be abruptly abbre-
waited
