KNOWLEDGE

tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to

the value to health of the pure liquid

ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

tenant of the Democratic President
on the money question, so in this
House his lieutenant was the emf
nent and talented gentleman from
Maine (Mr Reed. He had wit
messed scores of roll-calls on which
all the Republicans except four hon
orable and independent gentlemen,
Messrs. Sweet, Broderick, Bowers
and Hartman, had been the chief
allies of the Executive and Secre-
tary of the Treasury These alone
had been above the control and
crack of the whip of the leader of
the minority, But the Democrats,
he charged were no better than the
Republicans. They had juggled
with silver; they had stricken it
down, and now sought to deceive
their constituents by their support
of this bill. On the 10Th a Demo
cratic caucus had been held, and
the most rampant man in the hall
was said to have been the gentle
tleman from Tennessee (Mr. Patter-
sony, who last fall took back all he
had said for fifteen years. He act
ed with the administration and in
return secured patronage for his
district and state, No man on this
floor had eaten more administration
pie than he, Yet this man who
had surrendered the convictions of
a life time and stood up like the
gentleman from Texas Kilgore) and
thanked God that he had changed
his mind and had had the courage
to stand by his convictions, became
the most rampant of silver leaders.
He went to the extent of proposing
a resolution authorizing the Speak
er to count quorum. Mr.. Pence
continued and said that his chief
objection to this bill was that back
sliders last summer would utilize
their vote upon it to cover their
retreat and deceive the voters, The
utterances of Mr.. Patterson in the
Democratic caucus would be made
to commend him to his constituent
cy as a silver leader.
Mr.. Chairman, said Mr., Pence, in
conclusion, | do not suppose it would
do a bit of good if the gentleman
from Maine ReeO were here now
for me to make an appeal to him to
keep his hands off, to fold up his
whip, to suspend his management
of his party here upon this question.
But although the gentleman has
left his seat / will treat some of his
representatives now present as
standing in his stead, and will make
an appeal in behalf of the Republi-
can members, who, it seems to me,
have not had the courage to make
the appeal for themselves. Laugh
ter. The crack of the gentlemans
whip has failed to control four mem
bers of the Republican minority
here.
And, Mr.. Chairman, in addition
to these four men there have been
five or six of the most accomplish
ed, well-rounded, graduated and
slippery dodgers that ever went on
record upon any vote in any House
Of Congress- [Laughter].

SUDDEN DEATH !
P. R. Marshall, Travelling PhOtOgra-
pher, Dies in His Tent about
Noon To-Day.

A few moments before u o'clock
today P. r. Marshall the photog-
rapher occupying the tent on the
vacant Byrne block on State Line
avenue, fell dead from a box while
seated thereon, conversing with his
colored porter, George Wilson, who
lived with him.
DR. d. S. Williams was summoned
and arrived just as the unfortunate
man was in the throes of death He
breathed his last in few moments.
The physician made an exanina-
tion of the body, pronouncing the
case one of death from natural
causes, presumably "heart di-
sease. that most fatal of human
affections.
The deceased was a travelling
photographer, having arrived in
this city and pitched his tent, on
the spot now occupied in September
last He was, apparently, about 45
or 80 years of age, of quiet man
ners and gentlemanly demeanor.
AS to the antecedents of deceased
little or nothing is known, as his
only attendant was the colored por-
ter, George Wilson, who has been
with him since November last.
His pockets were searched and
$40, 10 in cash found on his person,
He also had a fine gold watch. The
money, watch, and a trunk and va
lise, containing clothing etc, were
taken in charge by county Judge
Friedell, who also had undertaken
Reeves to take custody of the body,
for burial or other disposition De
ceased MarshalD has a brother at
Oakland Cal. who has been tele-
graphed, and reply from him is
expected, as to what disposition is
to be made of the remains
A stranger by the name of A.
Rodgers who was with deceased
just prior to death, states that he
was then preparing to make a
Photographic negative for lady,
when he fell over, headforemost,
and expired without regaining con-
sciousness, The unfortunate man
had been complaining slightly of
cold, etc, for several days past, but
declined to seek medical assistance
or advice, applying instead some
simple remedy Of his own selection.
A bill of sale, for the tent, fix
lures and photographers outfit,
owned by deceased, is held by the
Colored porter or assistant, above
mentioned, He, the porter, states,
however, that he makes no claim to
anything, save that which is shown
to be his by the books of the de-
ceased, 1t would seem that the bill
of sale was made on some kind of
private or personal understanding
between the two,
Owing to the fact as stated above
that a competent physician had
been called and was with the de-
ceased before death came, county
Judge Friedell, announced that an
inquest over the remains would not
be necessary.

WASHINGTON, May 2l.-The Commit

c. w. Buttz, with his attorney, was
without the doors Of the committee

witnesses in the corridors. Senator
Kyle was in his seat In the Senate
chamber.
Mr.. Buttz. through his attorney, made
a verbal application to be present and

from II, he then made a written appli-
cation.
At IL o'clock Mr.. Buttz had received
no answer to his demand to be present.
He said that II the COMMITTEES would
| give him no opportunity to cross-ex-
mine witnesses he would demand a
transcript OF the evidence taken before
he gave his testimony. and II 1t was not
furnished he would refuse to testify.
Senator Kyle was the second witness
called. He was before the Committee
for more than an hour. and when ex-
cused was informed that he would prob

months ago with the proposition to vote
against the Tariff bill and receive pay
for his vote. the amount offered being
$4,000. as has been stated in the news
papers.
In reply to a question, Senator Kyle
said he was confident that BUTTE repre-.
sition, il it had been accepted. would
have been made good.
Senator Kyle also stated that Buttz
had intimated to him that, II $4,000 was
sum he would name, as high as SIS. 900.
The, Committee took a recess at
o'clock for lunch. Senator Gray, Chair
that time. said the testimony so ia,
taken was not materially different from
that which had been published, except
that the facts were given more In detail
than they had been given to the public
through the press.
Senator Gray stated that he though,
the inquiry into the attempt to bride
concluded within a day or two. He also
stated that the testimony so far given
had not placed the Committee in pos,
session OF any names Of persons who
could throw light upon the question
other thar those which have already
been published.
Chairman Gray also stated that tn,
Committee had not vet formulated an,
plans for the investiga ton of the opera
lions OF the Sugar Trust. in connection
with legislation In the Senate.
When Senator Gray was asked wha,
the Committee had decided to do IL
response to Mr.. Buttz's request to b,
allowed to be present while other wit
nesses were being examined, thai h,
might question them, he said the re
quest had been denied. as had a similar
request from Senator Hunton to b,
present when Buttz should testify.
Shortly after 8 o'clock Buttz was
called before the Committee and his at
torney was admitted with him.

WANTS c0NNoR RESTORED.
This "Rooter" Thinks New York
Needs More Pitchers.

To the Editor:
Referring to the New York Brooklyn game
played at the Polo Grounds May IS. your morning
edition seems to lay the blame for the crushing
defeat to stanord's poor showing on third base.
Having witnessed the game, permit me to diner
with you. 1t was not Stafford who lost the game.
but the poor pitching OF Westervelt and German.
1t Is apparent that the New Yorks have but
two pitchers on whom reliance can be placed. viz. (:
Rusis and Meekin. Would II not be a wise move
on tho part Of Manager Ward to give keefe apd
Terry n trial! The former would willingly re-
turn 10 MS hrst Ioye. anu as ne says MS pitchI
as Clarkson, Mcmahon, &c, who were styled
back numbers" By all means he (Keefe) should
be given a trial at once.
1t is a poor Judgment TO take ''old Waterbury
from FIRST base. Many patrons Of the game will
stay away from the Polo Grounds II Roger Ia
not put back at his old stand. Common is all
right, and many n club will be glad to sign him
at once II the New Yorks let him go.
