Patrick Hgan Says the Press Re p orts
Were True

CHICAGO. March 1.-Mr. Patrick
Egan. who was in the city to-day on
his way to Washington, had his atten-
ton called to the published statement
of DR.. McCahey, of Philadelphia, i'm
peaching the accuracy of the London
cablegram to the Associated Press on
the day of tie exposure of Pigott's
falsity.
The statement of McCahey was to
the effect that Egsn and Sullivan did
not make the exposure, and that Father
Dsrney did not carry the papers to
London. but that they were taken over
By Mr. Robertson.
Mr.. Egan declared this McOahey
statement altogether wrong, and cor
roborated the story given in the Asso-
GATED Press cablegram of February %.
Mr.. Egan gave reporter some inter
esting gossip on the character of Pil OFT
and his methods of raising monev, etc.
When asked if hs believed Pigott orig
mated the scheme or was hired to do it,
Mr.. Hgan said: II believe he concocted
the whole plot alone, but I also believe
he sold the Times people goods they
wanted to buy. The Times did not ex-
pect to get into the sort oil
hearing which is now on. The
proposition was that Parnell would

The man afterwards committed sui

He spoke English only. A small

WASHBURN'S TROUBLES.
Thomas Lowry Says They Have
All Passed Over.

New YORK. Julp Histories which
have been widely published over the
country in reference to the financial
embarrassments of Senator w. D.
Washburne, Cf Minnesota, are made the
subject of an authoritative statement
here to-day by Thomas Lowry, of Min
neapOlis, who has been his business as
sociate. Senator WaShburn sailed for
Europe on Wednesday before the pub
licatiOn of the stories affecting his
credit. Answering an inquiry about
the alleged sale of Senator Washburn's
house to him for $4,000, which the SEN
ator was said to require TO pay interest
on his debts, Mr.. Lowry said:
There is no truth whatever in the state
ment Senator Washburn's house is not
decided to me and never has been. / never
loaned him $4,000 to pay interest on his
loans and never was advised that he was in
need of that amount tor such purpose. AS
to buying the senator's house. l can frankly
say that it is about all can do to support the
one now live in
what is there about Senator Washburn's
trouble?h
ut has all passed few months ago he
was said to be embarrassed, owing to the
fact that his time was occupied in politics
instead of paying close attention to his va
rious business interests. He, however,
promptly converted securities which he had
in hand and paid all maturing obligations.
Senator Washburn is financially sound, and
his moral and personalintegrity is such that
he would sacrifice the last dollar he pos
sessed, including his homestead and all per-
sonal possessions, to pay 100 cents on the
dollar This he will do despite the efforts Of
political enemies to bring about destruction
of his credit which has been attempted by
the publication of these stories, after he had
sailed for Europe and when he could not re-
ply to them"
