THE FESTIVE JONES.
Why FlOriaa's EOve-SiGk Senator
fingers nj Detroit,

CHICAGO, ILL, April 16.-A local pa
per this morning publishes an inter-
view with Mr.. James Mccarthy of
Jacksonville, Fla who arrived yester-
day from Detroit, where, it is asserted,
he had been sent by sew raj of Senator
Jones's personal friends, as we'll as
the press of that section, to investi-
gate the reasons for the Senator's
strange actions and to ascertain the
cause of his prolonged absence from
his post of duty at Washington. Mr..
Mccarthy says that Senator Jones
originally went to Detroit for his
health, and adds: 81 found that one
reason for his remaining there was
because he was largely Interested in a
new manufacturing enterprise now
being gotten up, in which several
millions of dollars are being invested"
Regarding the story of the Senator's
connection with Miss Palms, Mr. Nc
earthly says the reports of his falling
in love with the lady and prosecuting
her are false. His acquaintance was
merely passing. Mr.. Mccarthy fur
ther said: "The Senator will avoid
answering directly or indirectly any
question PIT to him by friends or any
body leading on the subject of his
being in any way connected with Miss
Palms. When asked him to explain
his prolonged stay, he said: came TO
Detroit in the first place to seek reCB-
peration and rest, and my stay has been
prolonged beyond my expectations,
or, / might add, personal inclination,
but the local press, subsequently aug
mented by the papers of my own State
and others, have taken it upon them.
