CARLISLE TESTIFIES.
The Secretary Before the Senate
Investigating Committee.
NO TRUTH IN EDWARDS CHARGES.

The Head of the Treasury Department
Declares That There Was Only one
True Statement Regarding Him In the
Published Statement.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-The committee
Investigating the sugar trust resumed its
session yesterday. Chairman Gray says the
committee will continue its investiga-
tions, leaving the district attorney to deal
with the witnesses who refuse to answer.
Senator Mcpherson was the first wit
ness of the day, and his testimony was on
the same lines as that of other members
OF the finance committee. He said that
he knew nothing of Secretary Carlisle's
alleged secret visit to the Democratic
members of the committee and demand
that the sugar interest be taken care of in
tariff legislation, nor of the statement
that Mr., Carlisle had revised the sugar
schedule.
AT Mr.. McPherson's request he was ex-
amined with reference to his own dealings
in sugar stocks, and he repeated the state
ment which he had hitherto made on the
floor of the senate, that when it became
apparent that sugar was to be made the
subject of legislation he had instructed
his broker to cease all dealings in sugar
stock in his name.
The committee also examined Senators
Harris and Mills, and concluded the sit
ting for the day with the testimony of
Secretary Carlisle. The secretary denied
explicitly all the charges made in Mr. Ed
wards letter, except one. This one was
the assertion that while comforting with
the committee he (Carlisle) on one occa-
sion, at the suggestion of the members Of
the committee, and using their figures, put
a sugar schedule into shape, as he did
other paragraphs in the bill.
The secretary declared that he had not
made such visit as that he was repre-
sented as making to the committee to de
milnd that the sugar interest be cared for
in the tariff bill, because of the Demo
cratic party's obligation to the sugar
trust. The examination Of Senators Har-
ris and Mills completed the inquiry among
the members of the finance committee and
senators who assisted in the preparation
of the bill.
Both senators denied any knowledge Of
the operations Of the sugar trust in con
nection with legislation, and also denied
that Mr.. Carlisle had demanded protec-
tion for sugar. Senator Mills was asked
II it were true, as had been reported, that
Mr. Carlisle had given Mr.. Havemeyer, Of
the sugar trust, letter OF introduction to
himself. He said this was a fact but that
he had declined to receive the letter.
1t is understood that the committee has
come into possession of the name of the
wire manufacturer who is represented to
have overheard the conversation between
senators and members of the sugar trust
while in an adjoining room at the Arlng-
ton hotel, and that he will be subpnned
to appear and make a statement.
Vice President Stevenson has signed
the certification of Shriver and Edwards
to the district attorney. This is the for
NAL order made under the laws of 1851
under which it is proposed to try to pun
ish Edwards and Shriver for withholding
names of persons giving them informa-
tion.

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, June 1.-The confer
enoe of coal operators of Illinois called to
attempt n settlement of the strike adj
journed sine die without having accom-
plished anything TO break the strike. The
conference passed resolutions deploring
the fact that the southern operators re-
fused to meet with those from northern
Illinois, and announcing that the latter
were ready to fix a scale satisfactory to
all.
Charles Ridgely president of the Con-
solidated mines, fatty refused to enter
the conference, and sent word to that eff
feot. The members criticized Mr.. Ridgely
severely, claiming settlement could be
effected at this meeting il he would go in.
G. M. Swallow, representing the Danville
held, said he would speak in behalf of his
section, that they would not enter the
conference because the Consolidated mines
were not in. If Ridgely would come into
the conference he would allow the Dan
vile field to agree to anything that might
be done. Mr. Swallow also stated that he
had been authorized also to speak in like
thhhhcT loE tht llcluS III central anu SOUTH
ern Illinois.
F. w. Tracey, of this city, deplored the
failure Of the conference, saying; 1--WE are
not conquered by the miners but by the
operators. and can do nothing unless
every operator in Illinois agrees to do
something with u.s."
Several of the operators were seen after
the conference adjourned, and the concen-
sus of their opinion is now every man
for himself"
The southern Illinois operators say they
will go home and try and effect settle
ment with their own men on the best
terms they can secure. They are angry at
the northern operators, and President
Ridgely in particular, and say if it had not
been for Ridgely the entire matter would
have been settled. State President Craw-
ford and National President Mcbride of
the Miners Federation, say they can make
NO statement as to what will now be done.
They said they would not like to be re-
sponsible for any future actions of the
men. They were out to stay if it stopped
every engine in tho United States and
syery cook stove in the land They had
offered a flag Of truce and done all in their
power, they said, toward effecting set
Element, and had been repulsed. The
whole matter was with the operators, and
they were to blame for all future pro
oeedings.
