THE THREE REPORTS
y rue PAYNE BRmERY CASE,
The Weak Defense Made by Senators Logan,
Evartsi aud Teller for tho Position They
Tnko-seaatOFs FryO and Ioar Give
Reasons for PavOrIng Investigation,

WASHINGTON, D, G., July l5,-Three ro.
ports from the Senate Committee on Pfivr
ileges and Election upon the Payne case
were submitted to the Sanate to-day, The
report signed by Senators Pugh, sauls'
bury, Vance and Eustis, tho Democratic
members Of the committee, eats forth at
length the public history Of the case,
recognizes the trRnscendent Importance Of
throwing around the Senate Of the United
States the highest safeguards against seat
ing a member whose title was procured
by bribery, fraud or corruption, and re-
cites the processes by which the siglers
reach the conclusion that there Ia no
ground for further proceedings against
Mr.. Payne. The report sayH the commit
tees first act was to comply fully with the
llrst request OF the Ohio House OF Repre-
sentatives to make on examination Of the
testimony taken by tho Select Committee
at Columbus, Upon this testimony Mr.,
EFoar made o report to the committee that
after careful reading no evidence, opin-
ion or statement whatever WAS found per.
sona!ly inculpstlng Mr., Payne in any way
with the corrupt use Of money in Connec.
ton with his election, neither did such
examination show that enough had
been found to Justify the charge
that the election WAS procured by the
corrupt uae OF money. About this tins
tho supplemental resolution OF the two
houses OF the Ohio Legislature and Of the
Republican State Central Committee made
their appearance aud soon after Congress.
men IAttlo and Butterworth were heard at
length. The siguers Of tho report declare
that no new evidence not contained in tho
original matter submitted weB brought to
their tention which any court would not
hold to be merely cumulative and specu.
lGtIve and insufficient by itself, or connec-
ton with the original to iustily report
in favor Of trial by the Senate Of Mr.,
Payne's right to his seat. They conclude
that Henry .. Payne has not been charged
with having anything TO do personally or
with having any personal knowledge OF or
connection with or participation In any
act or anything that may have been done,
or charged as having been done that was
wrong, criminal, immoral or repTehensi-
be, In his election; that no member OF
the committee aud no witness, representa-
tive or other person has expressed the
opinion or intitnaLGd any belief or suspi.
cion that Henry b, Payne Is or was con-
ncCted In tho remOtest degree by act or
knowledge with anything that was or may
have been wrong, or criminal, or INN oral
in his election, aud on tho whole case pre-
sented 10 them they recommend that the
Senate make no further investigation Of
the charg, involving tho right OF Henry
B. Payne to his seat, This report asks
that the committee bO discharged from
further consideration Of the subject and
that 1t be indt ttinitely postponed.

Tho FISHERY Quarrel.

SAINT ANDREWS, N. B., July 15.-I1on.
Mr.. Foster, Canadian Minister Of Marine
and Flsherleu, stated yesterday that there
has been no change in the orders for tho
enforcement Of tho terms Of the treaty OF
1878 since the seizure oil the achooncr
Adams at Digby. All reports 10 the con.
trary arc baseless, as Is also the report that
the Imperial Government had warned
Canada 10 modify her course. Mr., Foster
could not understand how Senator Frye,
Mr.. Dlngley and others could maintain
that reciprocal legislation subsequent to
the treaty Of 1878 has made that treaty OBJ
solete. The subsequent conventions apply
only 10 commercial relations. He stated
that the orders to customs collectors are to
hold vessels believed TO have violated tho
treaty until the matter is reported To OttR.
wa for advice. The captains Of cruisers
are given great discretion. They Canmake
seizures without delay.
