THE INVESTIGATION.
More Witnesses Before the Commit
tee-Reporter Rood Examined.

More Witnesses before the Commit
tee-Reporter Rood Examined.
The senate sugar investigating COM
nlittee resumed Its work today In the old
time manner. Only Senators Gray, Lind
say and Davis were present, but they
had several witnesses before them and
announced a determination to proceed
with the work so long as there was any
possibility of securing witnesses who
would furnish any testimony.
The most important witness Of the day
was Henry Rood, the New York Herald
reporter, who wrote the articles in that
paper upon which the present branch Of
the inquiry is based. Mr.. Rood was ex-
amined at length as to the sources Of his
information and especial effort was made
by the members to get the best informa-
ton at Mr.. ROOd's command as to his
statements that United States senators
had been specializing In sugar stock since
the tariff bill was taken up in the senate
despite their denials. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Hood responded to this request
as fully as he was able to do and pro-
fessed a willingness to aid the committee
10 the extent Of his ability. It was I'M
possible 10 secure the details of the testi-
mOny.
When Senator Gray was asked for a
that he could say nothing and that it was
the intention Of the committee not to give
out any information until the present
branch of the inquiry was completed.
The reason given for taking this position
is that the publication of the facts elected
would interfere with the plans of the COM
mittee and prevent as complete an in
quiry as they desire to make. Today's
witnesses, therefore, were all warned that
they were on the same plan as witnesses
before a grand jury, and were warned
against divulging the proceedings to any
one.
Other witnesses Of the day were w. 3.
Wheeler, a New York broker, and A. NJ
Seip Of this city, Mr.. Wheeler stated to
the committee that he had never placed
any orders for senators for sugar stock
and was unable to give any information.
Mr.. Seip has been represented IN the
newspapers as saying that he had come
into possession of knowledge of the fact
that certain senators had placed orders
for sugar stock during the spring and TO
have stated that il was placed with a
man then representing the firm OF Sey-
mOur, Young & Co, New York brokers.

1.-The testimony shows that two sena-
tors, John Il. Mcpherson OF New Jersey
and Matthew S. Quay of Pennsylvania.
did engage in specializing IN what is
known as sugar stocks or certificates dur
ing the tendency OF the present tariff bill
before the senate. AS their testimony
accompanies this report and is self-eX-
planatory, 1 will do no more than 70 say
that I think 1t fully dlscloses the neces-
sity for a law prohibiting this practice.
IL is a delicate matter for me to speak
upon this subject, but a sense Of public
duty requires me to condemn the prac-
tce as unwise and fraught with danger
and as one which, If INDUCED in to any
considerable extent by senators and REP
resentatives, Will Inevitably lead 10 the
defeat OF the needed reform in legisla-
ton.
The evidence does not show that the
sugar trust had any direct influence in
procuring the presentation TO the senate
of committee amendment to the sugar
schedule. although 1 think that schedule
in SO far as it prescribed an ad valorem
system OF taxation, Is entirely salts
factory to the trust
There is nothing in the evidence to
show that Secretary Carlisle had any
improper interviews with any repre-
sentative OF the trust or that any advice
he may have given or assistance he may
have rendered the finance committee was
at all improper or out of place. l am
well convinced that in what Senator
Jones did in the premises<he was actu-
ated by honorable motives and had no
desire to unduly favor the sugar trust
in any respect. I believe it to be due to
all of these officers 10 say that
the evidence does not cast a sus-
picion upon their conduct am
thoroughly convinced however that no
senator or representative should ever
permit himself to be approached upon
any subject connected with legislation by
the representatives of private or special
interests, except on such occasion when
such persons may be heard by the COM
mittee of which he is a member. exactly
as they would be heard in a court OF
justice in y case there pending and to be
determined.
ut is proper to call attention to the
reckless and open defiance Of the author
ity Of the senate to require witnesses to
answer questions that may be put to
them or make disclosures germane to the
subject matter Of Investigation. The de-
iance Of our authority by witnesses dem
Onstrates to me that If the senate ever
expects to arrive at the truth Of any
matter under investigation by a COM
mittee appointed by 1t, IL must promptly
take contumacious witnesses in hand and
deal with them without delay as they
would be dealt with in a court OF justice
under like circumstances But so long
as partisan politics enters into the dis
cussion and consideration Of investiga-
tons of this character the people can ex-
pect such witnesses to escape unpun-
ished. and no one knows this truth bet
ter than the witnesses themselves"
In conclusion Senator Allen urges the
passage of a law prohibiting specula-
ton BY senators and Representatives and
a law requiring witnesses before COM
mfttees to answer questions.

DESIRE ron PEACE
Prompted the Friendly Advice of the
Government.


Government.
WASHINGTON, July 2O-While there
has been no open developments in the
negotiations between the state depart
ment and the japanese government re-
speeding the withdrawal of Japanese
troops from Corea, there is ground for
the belief that everything is progressing
toward satisfactory termination and
that the happy result will be in large
measure attributable to the beneficent
exercise Of the good Offices Of the United
States.
Without reference to the publications
that have purported to give the language
of Secretary Gresham's dispatch, it can
be stated now that it contained nothing
that could be construed into an affront
even to a diplomatic sense. The quota
tions that have been given were errone-
Gus and especially in the sentence that
places the president in the position of as
sorting that japan is waging an unjust
war upon Corea. When the correspond
ence Is published 1t will without question
be found that the dispatch contains
sincere expressions of good will toward
both parties TO the controversy and that
the government OF the United States has
simply ana in a friendly manner depreca-
threaten peace and the president has
expressed the sorrow he would feel
should the horrors of war follow.
There was no characterization of the
present conduct Of Japan as that of wag-
ing an unjust war, and nothing, IL is
stated. in the dispatch that could offend
the keenest sensibilIdes, especially as the
two nations party TO the correspondence
are and have been on such terms Of
cordial friendship as the United States
and Japan. Moreover. the best evidence
that the japanese have not taken Off
cial Onense at the communication is to be
found in The fact that there has not been
the faintest sign of remOnstrance re-
ceived from Toxic at the Japanese lega-
ton here. as would certainly have been
the case had the government fe.t az
gfieved. in such cases IL is customary
for the minister residing near the presi-
dent to be advised by his government
that certain representations made in this
case by United States Minister Dunn
have not been acceptable. but nothing of
this kind has resulted.
The Japanese minister here was adj
vised Of the contents. and even the Ian
guage of the dispatch 10 Mr.. Dunn, and
It can be stated that he saw nothing in
it beyond manifestation Of a desire on
the part of the United States TO avoid a
bloody and costly war between nations
with which tt has friendly relations and
for which it cherishes a warm friendship.

Committee Thinks IL Has n CIew 10 n
Thing Two.
The senate sugar trust investigating
committee is devoting itself in the branch
of the inquiry which it is now pursuing
to ferreting out the origin Of the rumors
affecting senators, and the members Of
the committee now think, with fair
prospect of success. They are OF the
opinion that the stories accusing senators
of speculation in sugar stock and Of hav-
ing been influenced IN their attitude to-
ward the tariff bill by q friendly interest
I'm the sugar trust, have had a common
origin, and they now think they have
obtained q clew which will ena BILE them
to develop the source OF all the state
ments. The testimony given by the wit
nesses before the committee yesterday
point to a certain individual as the party
responsible for the charges which have
been set afioat. He is not a resident Of
Washington, and his present whereabouts
have not been definitely ascertained, but
it Is understood that no effort will be
spared to find him and bring him before
the committee and thus give him an
opportunity to make good the charges
There is an impression among members
of the committee that he has sought to
avoid appearing before the committee,
while striving to give 1t all the work
possible. The name of this man is
sacredly guarded.

we were defeated by narrow margin
before the people Of this country, there
is not a democrat IN all this land who
did not feel on the morning after the
election as enthusiastic and as determined
to press forward in that fight as he
did when the hope of victory was with
him the day before. applause on the
democratic sideD It was because of that
determination, it was because OF that
growing enthusiasm, Il was because we
felt the spirit and the thrill of the spirit
or American liberty incitng us. ii was
because we felt the Indictment of great
| moral purpose that we took up this cause
in 1883 and fought for it in 1890 and pre-
vailed in 1892 applause on the demo-
cratic side)
''The American people have given US
the responsibility. II remains 70 lie seen
whether we also have the power to fulfil
their mandate. The bill which passed the
house was not only approved, prepared
and voted for by those who ara the i'm
mediately chosen servants OF the tax
payers OF this country, but Il has been
officially indUrsed by the president, who
was chosen by them to carry cut This
great reform Of the tariff. applause on
the democratic side) Thus. every part
or the machinery OF the United states
government today deriving the authority
from the direct vote Of the American
people has indorsed the scheme Of tariff
reform proposed here and carried through
this house. No man in this country has
been more interested in the progress and
successful termination OF this great
movement than the man whom the peo-
PIE selected 10 lead them il This great
campaign. applause on the temperate
side) So far as It was within his power
I believe he has never spoken an uucer-
tain word as 10 his position on this ques-
ton. While his position has compelled
him, as a matter Of courtesy to the two
branches Of congress, to remain perfect
~ quiet during the tendency OF these
bills, he has felt 1t TO be his duty to let
the people OF this country know exactly
what his position IS today and just as
we were entering on the great work Of
comforting between the two houses I had
the honor to receive from him a long per
sonal letter, which, with his consent, OBJ

at PalShoi, a port not often visited by
Europeans. During March and April It
steadily increased until IL assumed gil
gantic proportions. According TO the let
ter OF DR.. Eldridge the eastern authori-
ties treated the disease with their ordi-
nary indifference.
Although Hong Kong is the center Of
trade in the East, but half a days jour
ney from Canton and IN constant COM
munication herewith the existence OF
danger was ignored. Several cases ap-
peared in Hong Kong during the first
days OF May. but not until the 10th or
that month was any official action taken.
1t has steadily increased in that place
until the mortality has reached 100 day,
despite the exodus Of 100000 Chinese and
many Europeans. The natives in most
cases have left on feeling the first symp-
toms Of the disease in the hope of dying
in their native villages, while dozen
Europeans have been attacked and most
Of them have died.
From Canton and Hong Kong the dis
ease is spreading through the neighbor-
ing country and Will probably soon ap-
pear in the coast towns Of China, north
OF Hong Kong, because from the care
lessness in these ports no effective quar-
antine is likely to be established.
Several cases have already occurred on
steamers trading from Hong Kong TO
Chinese ports, but without serious conse-
quences, on account Of prompt action by
the ships surgeons.
A quarantine system has been put in
operation in Japan, holding ships from
the infected district nine days after ar
rival or after the last case had abated.
and but one infected ship has reached
Japan.
IF I may presume to advise" says DR..
Eldridge. AZ would say that the most
stringent measures may need to be taken
to protect the United States, particularly
as regards certain classes Of goods from
China, likely to convey infection"

NEW YORK. July 1S.-The Press VIII
tomorrow say:
Mgr. Satolli, the apostolic delegate, has
jus. rendered a decision condemning the
liquor traffic. He approves Of the eN-
pulsion Of LIQUOR dealers from catholic
societies. This remarkable decision was
called forth by an appeal from the ruling
Of Bishop Watterson OF Columbus. o.
During the last lentea season Bishop
Watterson addressed letter 10 the clergy
and laity Of his diocese dealing wholly
with the temperance problem. Bishop
Watterson said: i hereby Withdraw my
appreciation from any and every catholic
society ia this diocese that has q liquor
dealer or salo5nkeeper at its head, or any
where among It's officers, and I suspend
every such society itself from the rank
and privileges as a cathoGc society until
It ceases TO be 50 differed. No one who
is engaged el-her as princip1l OF agent
in the manufacture or sale OF inuoLcat-
Ing liquors should be admitted 70 mem
beIShlp.'
"One Of the societies laid the matter
formally before Mgr. SaJollL To this
appeal the apostolic delegate has Just
responded. He sust aims the position OF
Bishop Watters0n and says;
e" The liquor traffic, and especially as
conducted here In the United States, Is
the source Of much evil, hence the bishop
was acting within his rights ia seeking
t. restrict f. Therefore the delegate
apostolic susuains Bishop Watterson's
action and approves Of his circular and
regulation concerning saloons and the
expulsion Of sal0onkeepers from member
snip in catholic societies.
THE Rev. Alexander =. Doyle OF the
Paulst fathers, the general secretary Of
the Catholic total abstinence union OF
America, said that the declaration OF the
APOSTOLIC delegate Is the most important
ever pronounced by the church in this
country. and he thought its effect would
be far-reaching.'
