tho following statement TO reporter:
"We have not yet paid the purse, but
we shall do 80 In season. Tho club Is
temporarily embarrassed. 1t is no secret
that We havelost Considerablemoney on
the fights recently given. The public
knows that, and We have no desire
to deny the truth OF tho statement 1t
is also true that tho club has enemies
and that they aro doing what they can
to affect our reputation aud our credit
They would be pleased to know that wo

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 13.-The
senate discussed for nearly an hour to-
day tho resolution offered last week by
Mr.. Henderson, intended to limit the
action of the senate in the present ex.
traordinary session to executive matters,
or matters requiring cooperation on
tho part OF the house.
Mr.. German favored that policy, but
preferred to have it take the form Of
unanimous consent rather than Of u
resolution. Objection to unanimous
consent came from the Democratic side
Of the chamber and tho most strenuous
opposition to the resolution came about
from that side. The question finally
went over without any decision and
tho senate adjourned till Wednesday.

Tho Chicago switchmen Discover That
Public Sentiment is Against Thorn.
CHICAGO. March l2.--It is certain now
that the Chicago switchmen will not go
out on strike, they having returned an
answer to tho general managers to-day.
The switchmen were somewhat aston
ishod by the array of public sentiment
against any strike at this time, almost
every paper in tho city having declared
that the attempt savored too much OF
an attempt at oxtortion because OF the
amount OF traffic incident to tho Worlds
Fair. Besides this, the general man
ayers we're so we'll prepared for strike
that there was but a small chance OF the
mon being successful, aud the switch
men were smart enough to read tho
signs and sec that they had but small
chance for winning.

BOURGEOIS AGAIN.

NJ. Goliard followed Madame Cottu
on the stand and confirmed her state
ment to the effect that he had told her
he would sec N. Bourgeois, but he
added: Nobody authorized me to say
So"
NJ. Bourgeois arose and exclaimed:
III any one knows that acted contrary
to thediCtates OF honor, let him speak" "
At these words tho uproar in the au-
dienee was renewed, many as was evil
dent from their murmurs and exclama-
tions taking part with NJ. Bourgeois,
and others with his accusers. Judge
Desjardins concluded that the most
effective way to allay the excitement
was to suspend the hearing, and he
gave an order to that effect.
When the hearing was resumed Nj.
@. soinoury was reCelled. lie made q
long statement to affect that neither NJ.
Bourgeois for any other minister was in
any way responsible for the interview
with Madame Cottu. lie himself had
originated the idea OF conference with
her and had arranged the meeting with
out communicating with his superiors.
For professional reasons he had deemed
IL best to keep the matter secret. He be-
lieved he was only doing his duty in
trying to got at the centre OF tho scandal.
The charge that he had threatened
Nine. Cottu, had promised her any favor
in return for Information which she
might give him we're utterly false.
