HIS ACCOUNTS ALL RIGHT.
Nothing to Show Why William A
Simsrott Disappeared.

CHICAGO, June day after day passes
in the inspection of the books of William
A. Simsrott without any discoveries that
cast any light upon the darkness which
surrounds the missing man. Accounts
amounting in the aggregate to 100000
have been audited and found accurate and
regular. The entire list of entries TO be
examined will foot up over the million
mark. The committee of three have DIS

efforts at forecast impossible when the

STRUCK A NEW SNAG.
A Member of the House Need Not
Answer q Senate COMMITTEES.


WASHINGTON, June Representative
John de Witt Warner of New York was
before the Senate Sugar Investigating
Committee for an hour to-day. He took a
decided stand when the tariff bill was be-
fore the House in favor of free sugar, AMI
stories have been published that attempts
we're made in the interest of the sugar
trust to have him deSist from his opposi-
ti0n to the sugar schedule. He refused to
divulge the proceedings in the House conf
mittee-room, and there was some little
commotion when Warner announced be-
fore he was sworn his intention of reserv-
ing the privilege as a member of the House
of answering only such questions as might
be thought proper. Several tines during
his examination he fell back upon this
privilege and refused to answer some of
the questions asked. The committee de-
cided that il had DO power to make men,
ber of the House testify before a Senate
committee, and that all that 1t could do
was to certify to the fact to the Senate.
1t is understood that one of the points
which the committee sought to obtain
from Mr.. Warner was the Influence
brought upon him to cease his opposition
to the trust. but this failed. Mr.. Warner
told the committee that a large amount of
his information came from conversations
with member of the House who were dis
cuSsing the events relating to the sugar
duties. He was asked who these members
were, and in every instance declined to
give the names Of any Of his feIlow-mem-
bers of the House.
The members Of the committee say the
testimony which Mr.. Warner refused to
give was of hearsay character and not of
such Importance that it would warrant
any extraordinary methods to obtain.
There is expressed great desire to have
the testimony that has been recently taken
printed for use in the Senate by the time
a vote is taken on the sugar schedule, and
it is probable. if it is available, that sew
eral blocks of 1t will be read in the Senate
tomorrow. The parts most interesting
are those relating to the testimony of Sec
reIary Carlisle. and the point in Edwards
story as TO how the schedule was drawn
together with certain proceedings on a
Sunday at thee apitol, the occurrence of
which has been denied by all the wit
nesses. Senator Jones has testified that he
requested Secretary Carlisle TO draw the
sugar schedule, and the Secretary has
frankly said he drew it. Senator Mills has
testified that Havemeyer came TO him with
letter of introduction from Secretary Car
Isle, but that he did not see Havemeyer.
The committee will not go to New York TO
take testimony, nor will it resume its sit
ting until next Monday.

A BATTLE AMONG BIRDS,
Herons and Rocks Contend for the
Possession of a Grove.
prom the Bradford (Eng.) Observer.

From the Bradford (Eug) Observer.
At Dallam Tower, Westmoreland,
where is one Of the largest heronries in
the country, memorable battle, lasting
over three days, took place between the
rocks and heherons, the question at issue
being grove of trees. DR., Heysham, a
local naturalist, gives the following ac-
count Of the contest:
There were two groves adjoining the
park, one of which for many years had
been resorted to by a number of herOns,
which there built and bred. The other
was one of the largest rookeries In the
country. The two tribes lived together
for long time without any disputes. AT
length the trees occupied by the herons,
consisting Of some very fine old oaks,
were cut down in the spring OF
l775, and the young broods persisted
! by the fall Of the timber. The parent
| birds Immediately set about preparing
new habitations in order to breed again
but, as the trees in the neigh borhood of
their own nests were only Of late growth
and not sufficiently high TO secure them
from the depredations of the boys, they
determined to make settlement in the
rookery. The rocks made an obstinate
resistance, but, after violent contest, In
the course Of which, many of the rocks
and some of their antagonists lost their
| lives, the herons at last succeeded in
their attempt, built their nests and
brought out their young. The next
season the same contest took place, which
terminated like the former, by the victory
of the herons Since that time peace
seems TO have been agreed upon between
them, the rocks have relinquished posses
sion Of that part Of the grove which the
herons occupied, the herons contne them
selves TO the trees they first seized upon,
aud the Two species live together In as
much harmony as they did before the
quarrel"
That is the old account, which origin
ally appeared in ''Bewick." Some further
particulars may not be embarrassing
The trees which had been so stubbornly
fought for and won were by age aud re-
peated storms brought TO the ground, and
the herons removed only 20 short dis
lance, selecting a row Of tall pine trees.
Here they lived in peace with the rocks,
but some few years ago an open feud
broke out, owing 10 a couple of herons at
tempting TO establish a new colony. They
built their nest, which was Immediately
pulled 10 pieces, but after defending IL in
most logged manner, and not being as
sisted by their friends, they were driven
from the site which they had taken up by
countless fiocks of their sable neighbors,
the rocks. Since that time the two species
have lived together In harmony.
