ON TO WASHINGTON.
A Committee Said to Have Left to
Interview Porter and Noble.

"A committee SAID TO Have Lett TO
Interview Porter and Noble.
After the adjournment of the chamber
of commerce the executive committee
appointed TO carry out the provisions of
the resolutions adopted held meeting.
The action taken was not made public.
During the afternoon there was
also a meeting of the special census
committee. The line of policy to be
pursued by it will be made known as
results develop. 1t is known that
committee is on its way to Washington
to ask for a disclosure of the facts
which induced the secretary of the inte
rior to classify ST. Paul with Minneapo-
lis in the order for recount. The au-.
thoritIes at Washington will be asked
to make thorough and searching jn-
veStigatiOn into the st. Paul census re-
turns, and if fraud is discovered in any
section or all of the city the govern
ment will be assured of the hearty CO.
operation and aid of the st. Paul citi-
liens in discovering the perpetrators of
the fraud, and in furnishing the offend
ers. The st. Paul people are
unanimous in the sentiment that
it is not justice to Supervisor
Smith and the people to order a recount
of the entire city without investigation.
They also insist that a rigid 1nvestiga-
ton may be made, in which they will
offer all possible aid. The feeling
among business men is that recount
will increase the enumeration, and are
anxious for a recount on that score, but
not ON the line laid down in the order of
Secretary Noble. A number of mem
bers of the committee approve the rec
ommendation of Supervisor Smith, in
recounting the two districts which were
taken by special agents sent out from
Washington, and over which Mr.. Smith
had no control, and to re-enumerate the
district which Supervisor Smith claimed
there appeared to be fraud on the part
of the enumerator, but all agree that
those three districts argued nothing in
favor of recount of the whole city.

should most earnestly condemn it. At

should most earnestly condemn it. At
present Minneapolis is represented at
Washington by United States senator
whose whole heart is bound up in the
success and prosperity of that city; a
congressman who has failed thus far to
secure an appropriation for much
needed public building in this city, al
though other cities have secured an APP
preparation easily; an assistant secre--
tary Of war. an assistant secretary OF
the treasury and G. w. johnson made
good fifth to this quartette of states
men, who had been occupied with but
little else during the past month
but Twin City census affairs. And
then this city was represented
by senator who was so Ignorant
of the manlpulationS of affairs at the
census Office that he was not aware that
any recount had been ordered in ST.
Paul until after such an order had been
published. Nothing but politics of the
lowest conceivable order was diScernl-
bic in the action of those who had sue
ceeded in having recount for this city
ordered.
Thomas Cochran was compelled to
rise and protest against Mr.. Smalley'S
speech, in SO far as he referred to Con-
gresham Snider.. But he Endorsed
everything else. and reused the enthu-
siasn OF those present with these vigor-
Gus sentences: 81 declare here boldly.
that we are not willing to be made
partners in crime. Arise as with one
voice and defend the name of our city
from these foul aSpersionS and inSinua-
tons. Defend it with money, and If
that is not sufficient | would go to the
congress and president Of these United
States and move heaven and earth to
have this foul wrong exposed and prop
erly punished"
W. E. Bramhall and f. Driscoll Sr.
also spoke. Mr.. Driscoll urged that
they should present united front to
the world. They would be unworthy
of their manhood not to demand the
evidence alleged against them. The
treatment accorded st. Paul was UNI
paralleled. In other cities where errors
or frauds were suspected districts had
been ordered recounted, but in no case
had the whole city been Recommended.
st. Paul was Smirched to save Mime
apolis.
The various amendments were with
drawn and the resolutions adopted in
their entirety. They were Immediately
wired to Washington.
Gen. Sanborn had read the following
telegram, which speaks for itself:
WASHINGTON, July 2S.-Gen. John B. San
born, st. Paul: have proceeded upon the
very strong recommendations of the superin-
tendent of census to order a recount i'll your
city. Yenr people should demand it. and
will eventually see that it's best. NOBLE.
The reading OF the telegram met with
Kisses. Gen. Bishop regarded it as an
insult to the city. and, upon his motion.
it was referred to the executive COM
mite to send reply.
The meeting thereupon broke up.

CONFLICTING TESTIMONY.

Capt. Wethern, Of the Inflated
Sea Wing, Undergoes Rigid
Examination.
The investigation into the Sea W ing
disaster at Lake Pepin was continued
yesterday. Capt. Monohan, of Duluth,
croSs-examined Capt. Wethern, who
said he had been OH the river occasion
ally for six years before being licensed
as pilot. He had been on the river to
learn it, but not employed for pay ex-
cept one trip. His application for
license was signed by Captains A. J.
Young and Charles Meade. He was on
the John Langford at one time when
it was laid up six hours on account of
wind. He had not been employed on
boat before he got his license. He was
only on those boats for fun and to learn
the river.
Capt. Monohan then questioned him
as to the regulations requiring proper
officers on the Sea Wing.
Capt. Wethern replied that he did not
try to secure pilot on the day of the ex-
cursion. He did not know that his eX-
cursion permit and certificate of inSpec-
ton required the boat to carry more
than one pilot. He thought if the mas
ter was pilot that was sufficient.
A GLOBE reporter made an examina-
ton of the certificate of inspection of
the Sea Wing under which Capt. Weth-
ern was acting, and found that it re-
QuireS one master, one pilot, one other
pilot, one mate, two engineers and
crew of ten men.
Capt. Wethern said he did not know
what his excursion permit said with re-
gard to sufficient crew to properly
handle and man the life boats. He had
read it over, but did not notice those
requirements. He had crew OF five
men.
Among other things Robert B. Adams
! testified that he was on the Sea Wing
at the time of the capsizing. He and
| about ten others put on life preserverS
when they got about mile from Lake
| City. Some one of the officers passed
along the boiler deck and, to those put
ting on life preservers. made the re-
mark: You are frightening the la
dies" He recognized Capt. Wethren
as the one who made the remark. When
| the storm came the boat was headed up
| the lake, and then she turned to the
right and headed for the Wisconsin
| shore.
| Capt. Wethern was recalled and stated
| that man named Jim Wilson was on
| the boat who had long black beard
| like himself, and it might have been he
| who spoke about soaring the passengers.
| He was intending to run the boat under
the point when he saw the storm COM
ing, but it caught him too quick. He
| did not see the storm coming until a
minute and half before it struck the
boat. He knew there was strong wind
blowing, but did not think it storm.
He thought the boat would have stood
| the storm if he had kept it headed be-
fore the wind. Ar important point was
made when he stated that he did not
| advise people to put on life preservers
| because he did not think there was any
| immediate danger, and he did not know
| the people were putting on life presery-
ers ten minutes before the boat Cap
sized.

Prohibition gets black eye from one
of it's faithful few. When j. 0. Bar
rett, of Browns Valley, was nominated
for lieutenant governor on the Alliance
ticket it was certainly taken for grant
ed that he was to run as the candidate
of the two parties-Alliance and Prohi-
btlon, both of which had named him
FOR the same Office, but this view did
not. it seems, meet with the appr0ba
ton of a select few in the Alliance.
and consequently Mr.. Barrett was
waited on by committee and
told that he must choose between the
two, taking only one nomination and
swearing allegiance to but one party.
Mr.. Barrett hesitated for time, but he,
too, finally decided that he could not
serve two masters. and decided that he
woul / work only,for the nominees of the
Farmers Alliance.
AS matter of fact, Mr.. Barrett was
given this alternative in the hope
that he would pull off the Al
lance ticket and thus give
the executive committee of the
Alliance chance to place new man
in that place. The men who planned
this claim that Mr.. Barrett was placed
on the Alliance ticket by Mr.. Donnelly
with the purpose of loading down the
ticket, and thus rendering its success
impossible.
To the surprise and modification of
the gentlemen in question Mr.. Barrett
decided not to stick to the Prohibition
lists.
What do the cold water brethren pro-
pose to do about it? is the next question.

can always be depended ON for enthu-
siasm and Democracy.

Hon j. c. Flynn, the Little Falls
statesman who, by a clever combine
with the forces of Mcclure, of Crooks
ton, secured the latter's nomination for
state auditor, thereby laying O. L. Cut
ter Of Anoka. on the shelf. was in the
city yesterday. Mr.. Flynn declares that
he proposes to be the next senator from
bis district, and will make hard fight
for the nomination. He is opposed by
Hon. w. E. Lee, of Long Prairie; Hon.
L. E. Lum. Of Brainerd; and Hon.
Bob Dunn, of Princeton. This gives
each county in the district a
candidate and makes it almost any
body's fight. Deals and combinations
will, as usual, characterize the confer
ence, and the man who does win will be
so hampered by pledges that his useful
ness as a public servant will be abso-
lutely destroyed. Senator G. b. Buck
man, now resident of Morrison
county, will personally engineer Mr..
Flynn's campaign, and it goes without
saying that the contest will be a long
one.
