ever before, because Of the marvellous

A Bitter Contest Before the Senate Com
mittee on Finance.

WASHINGTON, d. C., oct. 3.-The al
legged contest between Senators Ransom
md Vance over the n1r1ination Of Col
Iector OF Internal Revenue for the Wes-
tern District Of North C0rOlina, broke out
afresh this morning in the Senate Com
,nittee on Finance, which has charge OF
sych nomIr ations. and OF which COM
rnittee Mr. Vance is a member. The nom
il.ation OF Mr.. Kope Edas 20 fill this place
was made by the Pres lent about the mid
die Of August, the appointment being
credited to Senator Ransom, who IS an
administration senatfr. Naturally Sena-
tor Vance, who is opposed 70 the admin
istraticn on the silver question, IS op-
nosed TO the confirmation Of Mr.. Elias,
but. fl is said, places his objections on
grounds higher than politics and attacks
his qualifications for the important Office.
There is also a Republican side TO the
contest, for Mr. Settle, the only Repub-
lican representative from North Carolina,
is said to be as hostile 10 Mr.. Elias as
IS Senator Vance. In the event, then,
that Mr. Settle is able 10 command the
almost solid strength Of the Republican
vote and Mr.. Vance the silver Demo-
Gratis. il would appear that Mr. Elias
would have hard road TO travel in reach
ing confirmation.
Almost the entire time Of the COM
mittee was consumed to-day In the dis
cussion Of this case and nothing definite
was accomplished. Mr. Elias was before
the committee himself and made a state
ment; and when the committee adjourned
a subcommittee, consisting OF Messrs
Vance and Jones CArit.l remained o. CON
tinue the hearing. a full report Of all
that Mr. Elias had to say was made by
a stenographer, and this, in connection
with some voluminous documentary evi-
dence, viii be laid before the committee
at its next meeting
The charge against Mr.. Elias is that OF
| uuprofessional conduct in the manage
ment Of certain matters In his capacity
as attorney. He answered these charges
fully, but whether to the satisfaction OF
the committee remains TO be seen. There
| will be no special meeting OF the commit
tee. as has been rumored, for the pur-
| pose of considering this case, and 1t vii
| take the usual course, going over unit
