WAsHINGTcs, June 26-The members OF
the United Stllses senate were surprised on
picking up The Congressional Record to
find nearly twenty-eight columns of al
speech supposed to have been delivered by
Senator Call before the senate on June ?,
on question of privilege, in reply to GER
tain charges against him contained in a
pamphlet by w. ID. Chirley, sent to each
senator The remarks sctually delivered
by Mr. Call on that occasion would have
occupied less than a column Of The Record.
Mr.. Call had obtained from the senate,
however, permission 20 print some papers
with his remarks, and these remarks had
been withheld for revision thar the papers
referred to might be incorporated with
them.
The most remarkable part Of the addi-
tion of the twenty-seven columns made BY
Mr. Call TO his original remarks was a
table in which he made q comparison Of
his work in the senate during the Fiftieth
congress with that Of other senator's

The surprise Of the senators at this state
ment in The Record was followed in some
cases by anger and the matter was discuss
ed at great length.
Mr.. Call was interrupted in an address
upon his Cuban annexation scheme by d

CHICAGO, june 26.-Frank Collier the
well known Chicago lawyer who, as the
special delegate Of various British-Ameri-
can societies. journeyed to England and
presented 10 Queen Victoria the felicita-
tions Of her former Chicago subjects on
her Jubilee, told strange story last night
in narrating his recent experiences. Mr..
Collier was released from the State Insane
asylum yesterday, where he declares there
has been conspiracy to keep him.
The release was after an extended ex-
animation in court, which was conducted
by Mr. Collier in person, and in which
dozens Of prominent people, lawyers, ply
sicians, school teachers, judges and others
testified that in their opinion he was not
insane. Mr. Collier said that for time be
had been demented, but that he had Long

After his formal release he went into the
remarkable details Of his case. He begin,
he said, to be irresponsible on the 9th Of
August, 1889. 81 recall that on that day. 2
he continued, II tried TO remember where
was on the night of the Cronin murder.
"a fear seized me that would be charged
with the crime. was known TO be anti

that if they were brought out in court
would have been very dangerous"
Mr.. Collier related at length how such
thoughts haunted him, and how in his
desperation he went out one night and
followed over the whole track taken by the
Cronin assassins, and on the spot in Lin
coin park described so minutely by the
suspect, Woodruff, attempted suicide
The revolver failed to discharge, and Mr..
Collier, according to his own story there

point. He declares that as a matter Of fact
