SILCOTTS STEAL.
The Sergeant-at-Arms' Office
Investigated.
CONGRESSMEN IN THE LURCH
They Will Have to Grin and Bear 1t
The Defaulter's Stealings Fixed
at $71,80O.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, December 6.-The spe
cial committee charged with investigating
the accounts of the office Of the Sergeant
alarms of the House met this morning
The committee went into secret session.
At the end of half an hour word was sent
to Leedom that the committee desired
his presence. Lsedom, accompanied by
ex-Congressman Phil. Thompson, whom
he has retained as his counsel, responded
to the summons, but Thompson was de.
MED admission. Leedom has made
another searching examination Of the
books, and places the amount Of the de-
falcation at $71, 800.
Leedom's examination was confined to
an investigation of the manner in which
business was transacted in his Office, in
it's various ramifcations with the Treas
ury, national banks and Representatives.
j. w. Whelpley, Assistant United States
Treasurer, testified as to the mode in
which the drafts of the Sergeant-atArms
of the House are presented and paid at
the Department. After hearing Whelp-
ley's statement the committee made an in
vestigation into the legal aspect of the
case, with result most unsatisfactory to
the members whose salaries are in ar.
rears. Although the matter is still an
open question, it appears as the result Of
the inquiry so far that the responsibility
for the loss cannot be located. Alto.
gether the situation is distressing to
those members who at first had no
doubt that they could promptly recover
4 their missing salaries.
Having exhausted the knowledge of
the treasury officials, the committee
went to the Office Of the Sergeant.at-
Arms and began an examination of the
formidable array of books and accounts.
Ex-Congressman Paige, of Ohio, bonds
man for Leedom, emphatically denied
the statement which gained some cur
rency that he was indebted to Silcott.
He says he owes Silcott no money what
ever. Representative Adams, chairman
of the investigating committee, says the
story that Silcott had gone to New York
to collect money of Paige is doubtless
one Of Siicott's lies, invented to gain
time.

sr. LOUIS, December 6.-This morning
Powderly, Wright and Beaumont, repre-
senting the Knights of Labor, met the
demands of the committee of the
Farmers and Laborers' Union and basis
of federation was agreed upon. 1t was
agreed that the farmers should appoint
a Legislative Committee of two in con-
junction with the Legislative Committee
of the Knights at Washington, to secure
legislation in accordance with the rules
of both bodies. Ths officers of the two
organizations will form a Central Com.
mittee.
The various farmers bodies have agreed
upon plan of consolidation which will
90 into effect as soon as the necessary
reference can be had to the various State
organizations. The result will be the
bringing about of an absolute union. It
is probable in time that the Knights of
Labor will also join the farmers in an
actual union.
The National Farmers Alliance adopted
a long series of resolutions favoring
woman suffrage, demanding reservation
of the public lands for actual settlers /;
demonstrating against the acquisition of
lands by aliens; asking for the rigid en-
forcement of the law against railroad
corporations not complying with their
contracts as to the disposition of lands /;
calling for the free coinage of gold and
silver; favoring the payment of the pub.
lie debt as rapidly as possible; reiterat.
ing the arguments against the national
banking system, and declaring in favor
of the greenback doctrine.
Taxes on real estate mortgages and a
Graded income tax are demanded. The
LIQUOR traffic is opposed in all forms. A
deep harbor on the Gulf coast is indorsed
The resolutions also recommend that
Congress compel the Union Pacific and
Central Pacific railways to pay their
debts without any further extension 81
time. The Australian system of voting
is enthusiastically endorsed. The reso'
luton on the tariff is as follows:
Resolved, That we favor such revis-
ion and reduction of the tariff that taxes
may rest as lightly as possible upon pro
ductive labor, and that it's burdens may
be imposed upon the luxuries and re-
moved from the necessaries of life, ane
in q manner that will prevent the con
tinue6 accumulation of the United Statel
Treasury surplus"

An Illustration Of BrotherIy Love.

General Dan Maoauley, OF New
York has been here for some time,
looking after the interests of the Mic
srsgua Canal company. His jolly
face and big, upright figure have be-
come familiar to all the frequenters
of the capital in the last four weeks.
A gentleman who has an acquaintance
OF long standing with Gen. Macsuley
was relating a story about him day
or two ago. "The affection that ex-
lists between Dan Macauley and his
brother John is very remarkable"
said he. "They are devoted to each
other. John runs Macauley's theater
in Louisville, and Dan is as well known
in the west as he is in the heae- OF
his sdoption-New York. There
was a strong illustration of the
warmth of the love OF these
brothers a few years ago. Dan
and Jack were in the same town
I cannot at this moment recall the
name of the place. Some one
offended Dan and he was obliged, for
business reasons, to leave town with
out obtaining satisfaction. The
grievances ranked in his bosom,
however, and at the first place where
the opportunity offered he tele-
graphed back to his broteer: "Please
lick--for me. Dan"
"As soon as possible after receiv-
ing the message Jack started out to
find the offender. He found him,
and without any argument proceeded
to lick him in the most approved
fashion. AS no limit had been placed
on the operation or its character or
extent, he gave him a compromise
licking-one that did not MAIN him,
but was guaranteed to leave him in
a very sore condition for a good
period. When his operation was con-
cluded his victim asked in q grave
tone:
"'What did you attack me for?'
"'I don't know says Jack. You'll
have to ask Dan.'
IF that record Of brotherly affec-
ton has ever been beaten I would
like to know by whom" said the story
teller Washington Press.
