NEW YORK CITY ELECTIONS.



WASHINGTON, Jan. 27-Tho House
special committee, of which Ashbel p.
Fitch is chairman, has concluded its re-
port upon the supervision and admins
tration Of the Federal election laws in
New York city.
The report states that testimony was
promptly given by the U. S. Marshal and
his assistant, but the Chief Supervisor OF
Elections refused any obedience TO their
summons
The committee expresses the opinion
''that all of The Federal Election laws
have entirely failed to produce any good
results in the direction of purity OF cleo
tions, and have been productive Of such
serious and dangerous results that they
ought at once to be repealed"
Concerning John l. Davenport, the re-
port says:
'IIe holds his Office by tenure which
makes him practically independent of amy
criticism or danger of removal He not
only holds this Office Of Chief Supervisor
Of Elections, but he has also had himself
appointed United States Commissioner,
so that he can sit as an examining magis-
trate
w lLD bNG power OF bnB government
behind him, aud with the money of the
Government to use, he has managed for
years detective bureau, by which he
has sought to get proof of che crimes,
which, he has claimed, existed in New
York city.
"WheD, in the first capacity as a de-
tective, he had obtained such proof as he
wished to use, he then, in his second ca
| pacity as a public prosecutor, issued the
| warrants for the arrest Of the alleged
| criminals.
| "Then, in his capacity rs United
| States Commissioner, he has heard his
own charges against the prisoners, which
| he presented to himself rs judge, by him
| sell as prosecuting attorney, and has de-
cided himself upon their guilt or limo
| cenCe.
The committee asserts its whole exami-
! nation failed TO show a conviction toi
| illegal voting in New York city IN the
federal courts under these laws, and since
the present District Attorney came into
| Office
AS a result of many thousand arrests
| only three men have been indicted for

acquitted. a witness sent by the Treas
ury DcDHtmcut before the committee ss-

WIL1IAMsPoRr, Pa, Jan, 81. The first
judicial decision in the Philadelphia &
Reading consolidation case was rendered
last evening by Judge Metzger, Of the
Lycoming County courts.
The opinion Of the court is volumin-
Gus document, covering all the great
mass of testimony, and deciding every
point in favor of the defendants.
IL will be remembered that Matthias
Arnot, of Eimira, brought suit TO test the
legality of the combine, his case being
entered in the courts here about year
ago.
Hon. w. w, Hart was appointed Mas
ter, and he took a great deal Of testi-

PHILADELPuIA, Jan. 27.-President Nc.
Le0d, III speaking Of the decision, said
to-day; ''Ihis is distinctly d triumph for
the Philadelphia g. Reading railroad com
pany. 1t means millions of dollars an
nually to the commerce Of this port.
''With the geographical conditions and
the natural interests that surround them
the Lehigh Valley g. Reading systems
properly belong together, and the union
of their interests is to the advantage of
both and at the same time obtains for
the Lehigh and Schuylkill valleys that
which they lacked before the Consolida-
zion, affording the vast interests along
the line of the Reading a direct outlet
to the West and Northwest, through the
great lakes bringing the commerce OF
Buffalo at our doors here and establish
ing an intercourse Of trade that cannot
fail to expand rapidly the commercial
and manufacturing interests of Phila-

MKlNNIg,s DAMAGING TESTIMONY.


IL Creates Sensation at the Trial Of
P0isoner Beatty.
PITTsBURG, Jan 27.-The Common.
wealth in the case Of Robert f. Beatty,
who is charged with administering poison
TO the union men at Homestead,
sprung a sensation by producing wit
ness, Charles McKinnio, whose evidence
was damaging in the extreme.
MclLnnie is a cook on the river His
evidence came in the nature Of a surprise
to the defense.
When District Attorney Burleigh
called the name OF Charles McKinnie,
the defendant, Robert Il. Beatty, turned
quickly in his chair. His face was
flushed, and his hands trembled As tho
witness gave his testimony in clear
voice and practically sealed the fate Of
Beatty, the latter did not for moment
remove his eyes from him.
Perspiration triclSled down his fore
head, and he sat like one transtiXed. it
was plain that Beatty had not counted
ON the prosecution getting hold OF Mckin-
ME.
The latter told how Beatty had ap-
preached him with proposition to 20 to
Homestead and dose the men with croton
oil, and how witness declined TO have
anything to do witt the scheme.
An effort was made by Mr. Brennan to
confuse McKinnie, but Without success.
The testimony seemed to make an i'm
preston upon all in the court room, and
the tipstayes experienced no little dit6-
Guilty in maintaining order.

sit is to be regretted that the govern

Other Failures Looked for.
ROME, Jan. 27.--A number of promi-
aent men, including ex-Ministers, depu-
,ies and journalists, are openly charged
with having received money from the
Banca Romano for years
1t is said that some newspapers re-
oeiyed subsidy of $4,000 lire annually
The judicial inquiry is said to have shown
that the Bauca Romano supplied the
Ministry with Il large amount Of money
in the last election.
The failure of the Banca Romano WILL
it is expected, cause the collapse OF sew
eral other institutions, notably the Bauca
Industriale.
Signor Taulonga, governor Of the Banca
Romano, refuses to answer questions ut
present, but promises to reveal every
thing to the judges.
Signor Cucineilo, manager of the Bank
of Naples, cyuically tells interrogators
that they Will find everything in his
strong box.
Experts nave been unable, after three
days continuous efforts, to force this box
or to discover the secret Of its lock.

Salts Against Many Trolley Roads.

HAvERHILL, Mass, Jan. 27.-Notices
have been sent to many of the leading
street railways in the country, now op-
Grated by the overhead single trolley
electric system, of suits for infringement
of patent rights The claim is based on a
patent granted to w. II. Sherman, OF
Lowell, now dead, in 1873, which, it is
asserted, covers every device for connect
ing the car with the overhead wire and
has never been improved upon, save by a
little spring that has been added by the
Thomson Houston people.
