-Discredited at Washington.
NEW YORK, July 1.-The Atlas line
mail steamer Atlas, from Port Limon,
arrived here yesterday AFTERNOON. Late
in June the Atlas touched at Hayti and,
| according to her officers, it was learned
| that Fred Douglass, United States min
lister to Hayti, had left his post at Port
au Prince because the Haytien govern
| ment did not care to recognize repre-
sentative of the United States and that
it was rather the desire of the BLACK
republic" to break off all intercourse
with this country. The Haytien gov.
eminent, it was said, feared the United
States, and in order to avoid interior.
ence of any kind from this government
would sacrifice official intercourse
with it.

CARDS the story as pure invention and
says there is no reason to believe that
any such condition of affairs exists in
Hayti
Minister Douglass, when shown the
telegram, said that there was no truth
in it SO far as he knew. He had re-
ceived no intimation either in Hayti or
here that the government wished to
break off all intercourse with the
United States or was dissatisfied
with him as minister. Continuing,
he said: "If such had been the feeling,
there is no doubt but that would have
heard of it before leaving, either
directly or indirectly. You may say
that do not think there is any danger
Of sacrificing official intercourse with

Mr.. Wanamaker's DeniaI,

PHILADELPHIA, July 11.-Postmdster.
General Wanamaker, who had entered
the committee room while Bardsley 8
statement to Editor McWade was being
read, then stood forward and requested
that he be allowed to testify. II have
been anxious to appear ever since the
question was raised regarding the stock
| OF which previously testified" said he
In answer to the question Mr.. Wana-
maker said his interest il the bank
arose OFT of his acquaintance with
President Lucas and his brother when
they were young merchants. He stated
that he never pledged the over-issue
stock after he was told it was an over
issue, and it was out of his hands at
the time; that he did not know Fl. I'll.
Yard, and had met Mrs. Lucas but once
and that was at an interview about the
over-issued stock.
AS to the story told by Bardsley to
McWade that he had threatened to
close the bank unless he was paid for
the over-issued stock and Lawyer Sulz-
berger and Johnson had forced him to
return it Mr.. Wanamaker said it was
absolutely false. Granville y. Haines
and Samuel B. Huey went to Washing
ton to see him about the over-issued
stock and he told them that they
must settle for 1t, and that if they
did not, in justice to himself, he should
inform the comptroller of the currency.
After the bank closed he gave up the
stock. Bardsley's statement that
Marsh obtained from him $500, 900 for
Wanamaker in March, 1890, he said
was absolutely untrue and without the
slightest foundation, and invited the
committee to inspect his books.

Jail along side of me. There are more
men than one who got money out of
the treasury"
Fl. H. Yard, Bardsley said, got
great deal out of the keystone bank
money. He was in the pool with Lucas
and Marsh and Marsh allowed him to
overdraw his account $4,000, even
when the run on the bank was going
on Widener & Elkins, the traction
magnates, he said, never sold him any
traction stock or had any dealings with
him.
McWade also asked Bardsley if Judge
Wilson had ever borrowed money from
him as city treasurer. He said no: and
on being asked what judges had Dor
rowed money, he answered in a whisper
"Finletter and Ashman." The money,
he understood, was simply an advance
and he did not know whether he was
lending the state money, city money or
his own.
The remainder of the statement was
simply a long story of Bardsley's
troubles given in his own words with
numerous comments, all of which con-
tanned no new facts.

Her Statement Regarding the baltimore
Ontrages Laid Before secretary Of state
blaine.
WASHINGTON, Dec. ls.-Minister
Montt had an interview with Secre-
tary Blaine at the state department
Wednesday and laid before him the
statement of the Chilian government in
regard to the Baltimore outrages. The
statement presents theChilian side of the
case. and undertakes to minimize the
attack on the sailors. Minister Montt
was very conciliatory, and the docu-
ments he laid before Secretary Blaine
were free from the offensive tone that
has marked Foreign Minister Malta.
But the representations he made
bore out the cablegram re-
ceived Tuesday from Minister
Egan which foreshadowed that
the Chilian government was deter
mined not to make reparation and
would join issue as to facts. As this
country cannot admit the contention of
Chilli that there is NO outrage to make
reparation for. the next step will
be to have Minister Egan for
IAdAAy IHC SuIIdu ROSCtns
ment that its reply is not satis-
factory. This reply may direct Min
lister Egan to withdraw and diplo-
matte relations be broken off, but
circumstances will determine whether
this shall be done at once or await the
presidents message to congress. This
message, after giving the facts and the
correspondence, will indicate what ac-
ton the president thinks advisable on
the part of congress. Meantime, the
navy was never in better trim.
The members of congress do not as q
rule share in the belief that war will
be declared against Chilli Many Of
them say that it would be punishment
enough to the little republic to send
her minister home and cut off diplo-
matte relations with the United States
1t looks as though there might be .
war in congress over the matter before
any blood is shed in Chilli.

GRAND RAPIDS. Mich, Dec. IT
Henry Marshal Kinglnan, up to eight
cen months ago the vice president and
cashier of the First national bank Of
Chicago, committed suicide here
Wednesday morning as the result Of
continued ill-health and despondency. A
year and half ago Mr.. Kingman was
compelled to retire from business on &C.
count Of failing health. He spent some
time last summer at the sanitarium in
Alma, Mich, but derived no benefit.
and in September made an attempt to
put an end to his existence by cutting
his throat. At that time there was ev-
idence that the general breaking down
of his ply steal forces had affected his
mind. and since then his condition
steadily grew more serious. After
leaving Alma Mr.. Kingman, his wife
and three daughters have been
guests at the home Of Frank
Chaplin. the restaurateur in this
city, whose wife is a cousin of Mrs
kingman. Some time after midnight
Kingman went into the bathroom ad-
joining the apartment occupied by his
wife and himself. and. fastening new
trunk strap. evidently purchased for
the purpose. over q hook, he inserted
his head in the moose formed by running
the strap through the buckle, and
threw himself upon it, deliberately
choking himself to death. He was
quite dead when found. An attempt
was made to keep the cause Of death
quiet. and the facts in the case did not
become known until Wednesday even.
