AN OHIO REPUBLICAN EX.
POSED IN THE SENATE.
He Ate Of the stolen Pig Hut
Thought Himself Well qualified
tn SIT In Judgment Oh the Thief.

WASHINGTON, September LIN the
house to-day Mr.. Stockbridge, of Mary
land moved to suspend the rules and
pass the bill providing for government
inspection of mines in the territories.
Agreed to.
Mr.. Cooper, of Indiana, rising to Il
question of privilege, stated that one of
the charges made in the resolution Of
icrcd by him for the investigation of the
commissioner of pensions was that the
commissioner was selling stock in re-
frigcrator company to employees al the
pension office. He had in vain attempted
to obtain the names of the stockholders
in the company. To-day he had learned
that one OF the members of the invcsti.
eating committee, NJ. l.. Smyscr, OF
Ohio, was one of the stockholders. Mr..
Cooper therefore offered a resolution DIS
charging Mr.. Smyscr from the commit
tee and directing tnc speaker to appoint
his successor.
Mr., Smvscr, of Ohio, said that the
question which the committee was a,i-
pointed to investigate was whether the
commissioners mad promised employers
positions under him Tor the reason that
they became Stockholders in the reirigcr.
ator company. There was no reason in
his lSmyscr being a stakeholder that
would affect his ability to decide whether
Mr.. Raum's official conduct had been
wrong or not.
Mr. Cultivate, of Ohio, was surprised
that any gentleman Of honor and intcg.
rity should raise any question as to the
proprictv OF the gentleman from Ohio inn
mediatcly withdrawing from the com.
mittcc.
Mr.. Smyscr said he did own some Of
the stock, hut that fact in no manner
could affect his integrity or honor. Hon
est men and his friends would never i'm.
putc to him Il want of honor or want oi
integrity.
