Ittical rivat and enemy, Senator David
Bennett Hili, OF Now York. The New
York senator spoke for almost two
hours;to.breathleas galleries and o full
senate. Several times tho presiding
officer was unable TO restrain tho cnthu.
siasm his remarks evoked, notably
when Mr. Hill declared that personal
considerations would not prevent him
from defending the President when ho
was unjustly attacked. He defended
Mr.. Clevelands letter, his right to send
II and the sentiments II contained and
made strong point against his adyor-
sarIes when he pointed out that they
criticised tho President for siding with
tho house whom they admitted TINT
they had used all their influence to In
duce him to interpoee in behalf OF the
senate amendments to the tariff bill.
lie took up Mr.. Gorman's argument
and met 1t point by point in manner
satisfactory, to himself at least, and
concluded with a piece Of satire that
stung those on tho floor and tickled the
galleries unmeasurably. Mr. German,
on Yesterday, compared Mr.. Hill to
Iago. To-day Mr.. Hill likened those
who had Joined in tho assault on MIR.
Cleveland to the conspirators who
stabbed Cesar 10 death at tho foot OF
Pompeii's statue in tho Roman senate.
Mr.. German, he characterized as tho
lean and hungry Cassius; Mr.. Jones,
Marcus Brutus, the honest Brutus OF the
senate; Mr.. Vest, who struck the
first blow on Friday as Caaca; Mr.. Voor-
hees as Trebonius, "testy, but earnest"
and Mr.. Harris as Metallus Climber.
Thoy had struck down tho President,
Mr. Hill said, not that thoy loved Mr..
Cleveland less but that they loved the
senate compromise moro. "And yet"
he concluded, and each word rang out
like q hammer on an anvil, II can say
with Antony they arc all honorable
men,"
Mr.. Cafery, of Louisiana, who fol-
lowed MIR. Hill ll'with brief speech, also
gave to the country his share of the se-
crets Of the political prison house. He
detailed at length the mannor in which
tho sugar schedule had been prepared, F.,
insisting that it was made by and in the
interest of the sugar trust, He then
gave way, in order to give tho Demo
Gratis chance TO caucus. Altogethcr 1t

Ing committee to-day. While not a
member Of the firm Of Wheeler & Co.,
ho acts as personal representative Of
Mr.. Guillcradeau Of that firm in his ab.
sencc, aud 1t Is understood his testi-
mony substantiated that given by Mr.
Guillcradeau, and that 1t related to an
order for sugar stock alleged to have
been given by Senator Camden. Tho
committee still rcfuscs to give out tho
testimony, but tho mcmbOra unite in
saying the testimony is important
Senator Camden was to-day asked II
ho desired to make any statement con.
cerning tho reports in tho newspapers
to the effect that the testimony had in
vo!ved his name In sugar speculation.
He replied that he did not dcsire to say
anything at the present time, but
would defer any statement that be
might havo to mako until he could have
an opportunity to 500 tho testimony.
Ono OF tho persistent rumors that
were in circulation wAa that tho COM
mittcc had obtained copy OF an
alleged ordor tor sugar stocks, signed by
Il senator. and that this order purporteIi
to have boon given before tho senator
testified before tho committee that no
had had no dealings in sugar.
This was repeated to a mombcr OF
tho committee, who snid that Eo had no
way OF telling how such information
rot out OF tho committee, and that all
l.c could say was that tho testimony
had been discovered which will call for
a grcat deal OF explanation, and,
iurthOr, that II would be unfair to tho
accused to publish my testimony until
hO had had an opportunity OF making n
defense. Tho committeeman further
assorted that 1t was very unsavory nj
fair all around. 1t is claimed by the

der that It Is n forgery and was gotten

THE PRESIDENTS SIDE

Presented ny the baltimore ''sun"-
What Ia Evidently an Inspired Article
Expresses CIevsIand'S Surprise.
BALTIMORE, Mp, July 4,-Under the
caption "How tho truth is perverted
sometimes" tho Baltimore Sun to.mOr.
row will cay edltorallY:
"Thc charges against the President
and the hints and lnuendoes which
have been made in tho senate arc all tho
moro dAstardly because his position
scarcely permits him to protect himself.
1t will not do for tho President OF tho
United States to be baudyinG words
with senators. It IL just as vol to state
feW facts as they are given BY those
who arc intimate with the clrcum-
stances.
"One day last week a close personal
friend Of Senator German asked the
President to send for German and talk
with him about tho tariff bill, assuring
him It was his conviction that such IN
intorviow would go far toward
settling the taritt deadlock. The gon:
tleman who made this request Of
the President was so close TO Mr.
German that he had every right
TO believe that tho request came
from tho senator himself. After some
speculation Mr.. Cleveland wrote a note
to Mr.. German asking him to como to
see him and Mr.. German came. Tho
interview, instead Of being stormy, as
has been asserted, was rs calm and
quiet as possible. Tho heroics OF Mr.,
German In declaring that nothing but
sudden death could prevent his making
hiu speech against the President did
not occur. The President did not re.
quest him not to make the speech,
nor did tho senator give Mr.. Cleveland
any idea Of the character OF tho speech
he was going to make, telling him only
that he was going to mako briei
statement OF fncts. No one was more
surprised at tho tenor Of tho speech
than Mr.. Cleveland.
"But more than anything else tho
President was astonished at tho conduct
OF the senators upon whom MIR. Cor.
man called for corroboration. In their
remarks In the senate they sought 10
make II appear that tho President had
abandoned his advocacy OF FREQ Iron
and coal. Whatever was done by
tho President In tho connection was
done at tho earnest solicitation the SON
ators made. Mr.. Cleveland did not 10y
much stress upon tho form Of the bill!
as II passed the senate. He was assured
and no beloved that defects would be
cured In the conference commit
tee. 1t was tho President'a carneet
desire all along to get tho bill
away from tho senate where thero
was danger that II would be throttlod
aud into tho conference committee, and
to assist in this ho was urged by tho
corroborating senators. The astonish-
nemt Of the President, therefore, can bO
imagined, when tho senators tried upon
tho floor Of tho senate to havo 1t appear
that be had abandoned his principles"

HILL AND CAFNERY.

Tells How tho Sugar Schedule was Die.
tated by the Trust
WAsnIxoroS, b. O., July 24.-When
at 1928 Mr.. Harris, the floor manager
Of tho tariff bill, called up tho confer
ence report almost every scat on tho
floor was occupied. Str. Hill, Of Now
York, was on his feet and was immedi.
utely recognized for speech. He
agreed, he said, at the outset, with Mr..
German that tho Democratic party was
in tho midst OF a great crisis. Tho
Democratic party, after such q long
struggle In tho minority, had at last
been entrusted with power. It had
gone to work to reclaim tho pledges 1t
had made. Tho greatest Of those was
that 10 reform the tariff. Tho house
had passed tariff bill which, aside
from its income tax feature, seemed to
meet with general satisfaction and ap-
proval. As 1t passed tho senate, how
ever, after long weary months ot do
bate, it was not satisfactory, and IT vio'
lated tho pledges of tho party. 1t went
to conference.
Tho house conferecs were confronted
with tho fact that the senate had made
tho bill incousistent, had madc it un-
worthy Of Democratic support. They
rejected tho duty on coal and iron orc.
They refused to yield, and there was
no hope that thoy would yield. II they
insisted upon their attitude and tho
senate was obstinate, all prospect OF
tariff legislation was at an end. Ills
QIilpe) motion that. tho senate rocedo
from tho coal and iron dutios was in line
with an agreement. at will do no
good to obstinutoly adhere to tho posi-
ton taken whom tho bill was passed.

PISTOL AND WHIP.
An Uncomfortable Predicament.

Monday afternoon young man, B.
Hall, came up from Leesburg and
called on Dir. w. O. Massey He
showed Mr.. Massey letter which he
Massey had written Halls sister and
insisted in it his sister had been in
suited.
No sooner did Mr.. Massey acknowl.
edge the letter than Hall drew n pis-
tol, with which he covered Massey,
and with whip proceeded to lay it on
with lively stroke.
This incident took place on South
Third street, opposite J. w Sanders
livery stables. Az soon as the deed
was done Mr.. Hall took the train for
home.
The circumstances leading to this
little episode are these: Mr.. Hall had
sister who came to Ocala several
weeks ago from Lcesburg to rent a
house. Miss Hall was stopping at
Mrs. McAteer's, aud in course of bus-
mess called on Mr.. Massey, who is a
real estate dealer. He made several
business calls on the young lady. In
course of conversation, after he be-
came well acquainted with her, he
called her little sweetheart, y using it
in a playful manner, and as TIE young
lady took it good natnredly, in writing
to her on business, after she went
home, he used the same expression IN
his letter, This letter Miss Hail
showed her brother, who took excrp-
ton to it, boarded the first train for
Ocala, with the denoament as above
related.
The occurrence created food for
talk, and the town was full Of it Tues
day morning.

the young womans grandfather, in

spectful or discourteous by the express
