of bribery in connection with the Elevated
Railroad, now before the Legislature, be-
gan its public hearing yesterday.

sell and l. P. Hagar, lobbyist. and Sem
ator Fassett, with reference to the Peoples
Elevated Railroad, Senator Fassett said
there was proposition between himself
and Hagar whereby he could secure the
votes of ten Senators at SIC, 600 each, the
money to be given them provided the Peo-
pies Company secured charter. A meet
ing was arranged between Senator Fassett
and the financial men of the company the
next day, from which witness was ex-
Guided. Witness had an arrangement with
Hagar by which the latter was to work for
the Peoples Company. He was to have
money to use upon friends for banquets,
etc., and to entertsin members, and he was
to have $4,000 in cash if he secured the
charter. He spent for lunches about 500.
At an interview with Senator Fassett wit

H., Union and one of the petitioners of the
Peoples Elevated Railroad Enterprise, tes.
titled that at the interview described by
Sanderson the conversation was introduced
by the production of list of members of
the Legislature who were understood to be
favorable to the Peoples Company, and
the impression made upon his mind was
that the proposition was brosched by the
Senators.
Lewis Hagar testified that he is the pub
1.-l- ~f II
and he was employed by the Peoples Com
pany to look after the Senate. The agree
ment was that he should have from San
derson whatever money he desired for
looking after the bill. Asked if he was
present at the interview described, witness
caused commotion by vehement reply
in the negative, and. excitedly pointing to
Sanderson, said: II swear by that God
whom we all reverence that the testimony
introduced here by Sanderson and Moore
is anqualiiedly lie.'

1T WILL STAY.
Belief that the Louisiana Lottery Will
Get New Charter.

Get New Charter.
CHICAGO, June 13th-"There Is no doubt
of the Louisiana Lottery Company's getting
renewal of its charter said G. s. Bush,
well-known sporting man of New Or
leans, who is in the city. The passage of
the bill now pending means the reference
of the matter to vote of the people, and
if it goes to the people it will be adopted
by vote of five to one. An election in
the Twelfth Ward of New Orleans was
held recently, and the issue was between
the lotteryites and the ants. The latter
were defeated by four to one. That million
dollars a-year bid for twenty-five years has
great attraction for the people. Beside, the
people are awakening to the fact that if the
lottery is not retained in Louisiana it will
90 to some other State, and the people of
Louisiana have been playing the lottery 50
long that they will play il in that event.
Therefore they will let it remain where
it is

THE BIG CRUISER.
Likely that the Union Iron Works Will
Get the Contract.

Get the Contract
WASHINGTON, June 13th.-The awarding
OF the contract for the construction of the
s,100-ton armored cruiser was one of the
questions considered to-day at the Cabinet
meeting.
There are but two competitors the Union
Iron Works of San Francisco and Cramp
& Co. of Philadelphia, and each is working
hard to secure the contract The Union
Iron Works made the lowest bid on the
plans prepared by the Navy Department,
while thelCramps made the lowest bid foi a
ship under the modified department plans.
Secretary Tracy said to-day that the mat
ter would be settled in few days, but de-
clined to commit himself further. The
naval officers conversant with the matter
are inclined to the belief that the chances
are in favor OF the Union Iron Works.
CRAMP INDIGNANT.
WASHINGTON, June 13th-Ship- builder
Cramp called at the Navy Department TO-
day and Indignantly denied the report that
he is bringing politics into the contests for
the contracts for the new cruisers. He
says the report is malicious lie. He
hopes to secure the contract for the ar
mored cruiser, but will not call on the pol
iticians to assist him.

meath the wreck. The bodies have not vet
been recovered.
At Bull creek, six miles above here, last
night, there was cloudburst. The creek
rose suddenly and swept away several
dwelling houses and occupants. A dozen
persons living on the banks of Bull creek
are reported drowned. The following
were found John Ruggles, fisherman;
Lucy P. Estler, widow, and her two daush-
tiers, Bette and Julia, and two sons.
LOUISVILLE, June 13th.-A little later
the mixed passenger train would have
passed over the fatal culvert where the
freight train went down, when the loss of
life would have been appalling.
The clouds suddenly burst and caused
a rapid rise in the creek Farmers say
that the creek rose two feet per minute,
and the water looked like a wall twenty-
five feet high when it got to the railroad
fill.
Irwin's portable sawmill was lifted from
its fastenings and with over 100 big logs
hurled violently against the railroad stone
culvert. This is probably what caused it
to give way. The creek raised two feet
higher than it has been in forty years.
