OKLAHOMA CITY, o. t., Sept. 12.-In
the preliminary hearing of Erwin Cook
and John Mcconnell, two young farmers
living five miles east of this city, charged
with the murder of their young friend
and neighbor, August johnson, some
very sensational incidents occurred to-
day. The murder, which was committed
two weeks ago, has been until the pres
ent time shrouded in the deepest mystery.
johnson was calling on young lady at
the time of the killing, and was shot
through the window OF her house. At
the coronor's inquest Cook and McCon-
nell were arrested, but subsequently re-
leased, there being no positive evidence
against them. 4 few days ago they
were rearrested, and have been in
jail ever since. At the pre-
limlnarY hearing to-day, John WEIGH,
their neighbor, testified that Cook had
confessed the murder to him the next
afternoon after it happened. He gave
the testimony very reluctantly, and did
so only upon being told he would be COM
mitted to jail for contempt of court IN
less he answered the prosecuting attor-
neY's questions. He told the whole
story, and the defense Immediately
asked and obtained a continuance of the
case until next Wednesday afternoon.
The prisoner Cook, after he had been
tax en- to jail, sent for the deputy sheriff
TO whom he confessed to the murder of
johnson in the presence of a GAZETTE
correspondent. He stated that he and
Mcconnell went to the house where
johnson was, merely to see what he was
doing and to have q little fun by soaring
him. They could not see him through
the window because of the curtain oyer
it, and they lay on the ground
until almost midnight waiting
for him to come out. Getting tired of
that they got up and each fired their re-
volvers twice. After this they went
home and did not know that johnson had
been shot until next morning.
Both parties TO the affair are wealthy
and influential. The greatest excite
ment prevails over the matter.
Owing to the inability of the farmers
to purchase necessary seed wheat for fall
planting, the Santa Fe railroad COM
pany sent into the territory SO 200 worth
of seed wheat free of freight, and il
issuing it to farmers at its usual cost on
one years time. Seven carloads was
distributed to-day among over 800
farmers 9

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-The tariff
bill reached the house to-day and it is
probable it will be considered in COM
mittee of the whole before going to con-
ference. This will cause some delay.
The free sugar men are dissatisfied wiki
the senate amendments to the sugar
schedule and demand discussion aud vote

senate amendment taxing all sugars
above thirteen Dutch standard gives the
retineres their raw sugar free but taxes
the finished products. The free sugar

The committee on ways and means will

of the tariff bill is conditional upon the

The House Ways and Mean. Committee.

The House Ways and Means Committee.
WASHINGTON, Sept. l2.-This morn
ing, for the first time in several months,
the house ways ana means committee
held q session. The purpose was TO dis
cuss the treatment of the senate amend
menrs TO the tariff bill, and the entire
session was so consumed. AS the bill
itself had not reached the committee no
formal conclusions could be noted, and
the proceedings were entirely confined to
a general discussion. On one point there
seemed 10 be u practical agreement, and
that was that the amendments should be
considered by the committee instead OF
acceding to the request of the senate for
a conference. As 10 how much time
should be allotted to that proceeding
there seemed to be diversity of opinion,
but there was pronounced disposition
on both Republican and Democratic sides
to hasten action in the commit
tee as much as could be. The
date upon which the bill when
enacted into a law shall take effect was
also discussed, but without result beyond
the development of a strong Individual
belief that the date fixed by the senate,

The committee meets again Tomorrow
and will proceed formally to consider the
bill. It is said by some Democratic
members that the facility which their
party associates VIII lend themselves
to Republican efforts to hasten the final
disposition OF the bill is conditional upon
the programme which is to be adopted by
republicans in the house for the remain
der of the session, aud that if it should
be attempted TO pass threatened resolG-
tion to interfere with the Ohio districts
as established by the last gerrymander,
or to force through other pronounced
partisan measures, resort will be had
to all parliamentary means to obstruot

The Raum Investigation.

WASHINGTON, Sept. l2.-The special
committee of the house appointed to in
vestigate the charges against Commits
sioner Raum met at the pension building
this morning for the purpose OF taxing
the testimony of 1873 clerks, who il was
charged had received promotions by rea-
son Of their purchase of stock in the Uni
versal refrgerating company. All of
the members were present with the ex-
ception of Mr.. Goodnight of Kentucky.
The committee, however, decided not TO
call any of the clerks for examination for
tered on the record al the direction of
the committee. Gen. Raum requested
the committee to subpoena every en-
ploye of the pension department who
had been promoted under his administra-
ton of office to disprove the charge that
any of such employees had purchased or
held stock i'll the Universal refrigerating
company or had been promoted by rea-
son thereof. The committee declined TO
comply with his request. on the ground
that it would in their opinion, judging
from evidence already taken, be a use
less consumption of time and a needless
expense. Messrs. Morrill,, Flick and
Lewis sustained the objection, Sawyer
dissenting. The committee then ad-
jOurned.
This virtually closes the Investigation,
and report will probably be made dur
ing the coming week.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Sept. l2.-Since Clark
son severed his connection with the post
office department and gave his entire
mind to the Republican congressional
campaign committee, that body has be-
gun to show signs of awakened anima-
ton. The large building on Lafayette
square is lighted up every night from the
ground to the roof, and fifty or more
young men, anxious to demonstrate
their fealty to the 6. o. p, are busily
employed in doing the bidding of the
self-constltuted chief of the committee.
Thousands of sacks of speeches are being
sent out every week under frank of one
member or other of the body, and every
effort is being made to improve the op-
portunities for gathering in estray voters
from Republican ranks. The committee
seems to have more money than
was in its Golfers few weeks ago.
and it would appear Clarkson has
been successful at least i'll "frying more
fat" out of the manufacturers, VINO are
especially favored in the impending
tariff bill. 1t is said that this was done
through the personal appeal of Aldrich,
and that among those who have been
squeezed for comfortable sums are men
who want to put their capital into the tin
plate industry.
Clarkson announces there is q bright
prospect that Republicans may retain
control of the next congress, but up to
the present time he has not been able to
convert many Republican members of
the house to bis belief.

BEXAR COUNTY REPUB LICANs
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Sept. 12.-The
Republicans of this county are about to
make a departure from their old path of
passive inertness and put q straight
ticket III the field this fall. If this is
done the Democrats will be forced to q
like course, and hence the prospects are
good for the liveliest campaign in this
county since The DAYS of reconstruction.
The parties are very evenly divided here,
though the Republicans have never be-
fore had the lines drawn to test their
strength. There Is also the largest pur-
chasable vote in this county among the
large negro and Mexican population
of any county in Texas, and the
scramble for Office will therefore
be all the more interesting. If the
Republicans share in the victory in the
fall elections additional strength will be
added to the movement TO uncrown
Mayor Bryan Callaghan as king of Bexar
Democracy, and this will in turn go n
long way toward developing some other
leader for the Democrats of this section
of BeXaT in the coming struggle for con-
gresham for the new district to be
carved out by the legislature. The Re-
publican executive committee will meet
tomorrow to determine the date for
holding the proposed county nominating
convention.

SPLIT On THE SCHUUL QUESTION
Snecinl TO the Gazette.

SpeClnl 10 the GaZette
GUTHRIE, o. T. Sept. l2.-The most
interesting days work in the upper
house of the legislature was done to-
day. The question up for action was the
bill establishing public school system
for the territory and the bone of conten-
ton was over the mixed school
question. The Democrats insist on
clause prohibiting the black
and white children attending the
the same schools willis the Republicans
strongly favor schools in common for
both races, without distinction. Great
warmth of words has already been in
dulged in and full fedged circus is ex-
pected tomorrow. 1t Is the general
opinion that the anti mixed faction will
win in both houses. but that the gov
ernor IN his eagerness to strengthen the
ranks of tie g. o. p. by augmentIng the
negro vote will veto it as it is generally
known he favors the mixture of the
races.
Speaker Daniels of the lower house was
assaulted late last night by one of the
Knights OF Labor on account of not hay-
ing received any recognition in the ap-
pointment of legislative employees. Schil-
ling was placed in jail and will have his
trial tomorrow. Daniels was not hurt.

c. F. Cohran for county attorney, Nc
Kinley for treasurer, Talley tor tax col

WASHINGTON, Sept. I2.-The present
deadlock in the house will probably not
be broken before Monday or Tuesday
The situation is very peculiar one.
With but few exceptions the Democrats
are in favor OF almost any tactics that
will prevent the unseating of MIR. Nenable.
There are some, however, who are more
interested in having the river and harbor
bill passed than anything else, and they
declare they will not tilibuster if the
measure is to be endangered. The Re-
publican leaders are sending out
the most urgent appeal 20 their alb
sentees, aud claim that they will
have q quorum of Republicans on hand
by Monday or Tuesday, and then they
propose 10 go right ahead and
DO WHAT THEY PLEASE.
On the other hand, it is stated that quite
a number of absent Republicans havo
sent word to the managers that
they will return if their pres
euce is needed to pass the
tariff bill, but they will not come back
merely to dispose of a doubtful election
contest. just before the house met this
morning Judge Perkins and other prOmi-
nent Republicans proposed to Messrs.
Reed and Mckinley that the latter
should announce his Willingness to al
low the contested election cases to
20 over for day in order that private
bills might be considered and the house
might not lose the usual Friday night
session for the passage of private PEN
sion bills, but the speaker would not lis
ten to the proposition. He was in an
ugly mood and insisted that
THE FIGHT SHOULD PROCEED.
The binding Irvine trust people are
very active, claiming that they will
knock the senate people out when the
tariff bill is considered in the house. It
is understood here that the friends of the
trust on the ways and means committee
will take care to have that item voted
on IN such shape that the Western Re-
publicans in the house will have TO agree
TO a compromise even if they cannot
have free Irvine for their constituents.
The managers do not propose that the
Western men will favor keeping the ar
ticle on the free list.
PLACE FOR GRosvENOR.
The Republican members of the house
are trying to induce the president TO give
Congressman Grosvenor of Ohio a good
place in view OF the fact that he has failed
to be renominated in his district Con-
gresham Williams of Ohio circulated q
paper to-day among the Re-
publican representatives. 1t was
signed by all who were approached
on the subject, and there will be no diff
Guilty in getting the names OF nearly
every Republican in the house on the pc
tition. No particular place is mentioned.
The petitioners Will leave the whole thing
to the president. The Spanish mission is
about the only good office now vacant,
and it Is believed Gen. Grosvenor's
friends will try to secure that place for
him.
