WASHINGTON, Jan. 26-Judge Moody
was heard by the house committee on ter
ritorles today upon the proposition to
divide the territory of Dakota. He fol-
lowed the same line of argument pursued
by him at his previous hearing. He dis
claimed any personal interest IN the divi-
sion of the territory on the forty sixth
parallel, and charged that Mr.. L. g.
johnson, who accused HIM of desiring
such division in order that he might be
returned to the senate, was not citizen
Of Dakota, but of Illinois. He said Mr..
,,ehnson was = land speculator who want
cd division north and south in order to
hiring his lands near the capital Of new
state. and thus enhance their value. Mr..
Mcdonald, a banker of Pierre, Dakota,
smoke few minutes in support OF the
views expressed by Judge Moody.

OF the cases which was developed by the
committee. He says that II did not occur
to him at the time that 1t was Of Much
Significance, but il the matter goes before
the U, s, Senate, he thinks his testimony
will be Of great importance, There are
other letters giving new Clews, which it Is
thought will be very valuable In case OF

As stated, some OF the letters are from
witnesses who appeared before the legisla.

the reason that they were OF the opinion
that the matter would be dropped with
the investigation here, and they did not
care to incur the displsRsure Of certain
persons, but seeing that business Is meant,
they can add some material things to the
testimony already given.
II would not be surprising II the United
States Senate proceeded with the case,
and the old witnesses are recalled, thai
the discovery would be made that many
Ol these witnesses fell into the hands Of
Doodle attorneys before going on the stand
here, and the idea was beaten into them
