wIsCoNsIN's OWN SENSATION.
Question of Veracity Between Statesmen
on Ex-Treasurer Harshaw's Case.

A Question of Veracity Between Statesmen
on Ex-Treasurer Harshaw's Case.
MILWAUKEE, WIS, Oct. 29-More light
was to-day thrown on the mystery surround
ing the sudden refusal of Judge Siebecker to
try the suit to recover interest from ex-state
Treasurer Harshaw, by public statement
from ex-Congressman La Toilette. On
Tuesday morning Mr.. Sawyer caused the
publication of carefully prepared state
ment in regard to certain meeting between
him and Mr.. La Toilette about month ago,
at which, Mr.. Sawyer claims, he preferred a
retainer in the case to Mr.. La Toilette, and
also requested the latter to sound Judge
Slebecker to ascertain whether he was pre-
JUDGED against Harshaw According to Mr..
Sawyer's story, La Toilette refused the re-
tanned on the ground that it would be in
proper for him to be introduced in the suit,
as Judge Siebecker is his brother-in-law.
In his communication to-day Mr. La Fol-
lette pronounces the interview between him
and Mr.. Sawyer, given by the latter, as
false and not true statement of what
transpired. He says he met Mr.. Sawyer
at the Plankinton House, in this city, Sep
tember IL, in response to an urgent letter
from the Senator; that the latter immedi-
ately began to question him in regard to
Judge Slebecker's feelings toward the de-
fendant in the case, Mr.. Harshaw, and that
he Ola Follette) assured Sawyer that the
Judge was fair-minded man who would not
let the fact that Harshaw had opposed his
appointment bias his Judgment. Then, &C.
cording to Mr.. La Toilette, Mr.. Sawyer
said: 81 don't want to hire you as an at
torney in the case, Mr.. La Toilette, and
don't want you to go into court, but here is
$50; I will give you $500 more, or 81, 600, or
$500 more and 81 900 (Mr. La Toilette is un-
certain which he said) when Siebecker de-
uides the case right" Mr.. La Toilette says
he Immediately told Sawyer that if he had
struck him in the face he would not have
insulted him as he insulted him then; that
he (Sawyer) was endeavoring to get him to
talk to the Judge about the case off the
bench, and that he had not money enough
to employ him as an attorney after what had
transpired.

GRANTED HIS SHARE.

A Settlement of the Estate of Murdered
Miss Douglass.
Judge Hawkins, of the Orphans Court,
yesterday handed down an opinion in the
matter of the claim of w. L. Douglass
against the estate of the late Margaret
Douglass, of McKeesport. Miss Douglass
was murdered by her nephew, j. E. Myers,
who is now serving term in the penl-
tentiary for the crime. The claim of w. L..
Douglass is based on an alleged agreement
made with Miss Douglass. Her father died
in 1884, and in his will cut on
her and his grandson, j. E. Myers.
They had no money to contest
the will, but Douglass agreed to pay the
expenses of the contest if Miss Douglass
would pay him % per cent of her share OF
the net proceeds Of the contest was success
full. The will was set aside and Miss Doug
lass received one-half of the estate, farm
then valued at $4,000. Douglass, how
ever, never received his money, and since
her death fled his claim against her estate.
The estate has since increased greatly in
value, but it was held at the
hearing that Douglass could only
get his share based on the value at
the time of the conclusion of the will con-
test In his opinion yesterday Judge
Hawkins, after reviewing the case, said that
Douglass had appeared to have fulfilled his
part of the agreement, and there did not ap-
pear to be any reason why he should not be
paid. A decree in accordance was ordered.
1t gives Douglas for his share after the de-
duction of expenses s., ,36S 53.

INDEPENDENCE OR ANNEXATION.
The Quebec Controversy Drifting to
Dangerous Point for Canada.

The Quebec Controversy Drifting to a
Dangerous Point for Canada.
MONTREAL, Oct ga strong feeling in
favor OF independence is growing in Quebec,
and it can safely be said that at least two
thirds of the people are favorable to it.
There was time when such sentiments as
are being openly expressed at present would
have met with the cry of "traitor," but that
time is past. Not only do the French press
advocate it, but a respectable portion of the
English press have also lately come out in
support of ii. The people are getting dis
satisfied with the existing state of affairs.
Again, in Ontario annexation meetings are
being held in different parts weekly, and
Colonel White, Conservative M. p, is
about starting an annexationist organ.
lie National, Government organ, comes
out with strong article in favor of indie
pendence. 1t says the efforts of Sir Charles
Upper to sell the French Canadians to the
English people, with the only object of
gorging the Canadian Pacific Railroad and
the adjournment of the reciprocity confer
ence, are sure indications that Canada is no
more country but field of operation for
the monopolists and organizers of English
plunderings The article, after slap at
the Governor General, goes on to say that
the only reason for forcing US to exchange
our products with Australia is to Justify
the Canadian Pacific in opening new lines
of steamers and obtaining contracts at ex-
orbitant prices for the carriage of mails and
British troops.

served decision. The same Judge handed

certain real estate in Armstrong county
now occupied by Andrew F. Baum, A. j.
