Investigation Continued.

Washington, May 26.-The report of
the senate committee appointed to in
vestlgate the charges of attempts 10
bride United States senators to vote
against the tariff bill and the charges
OF improper influences being used in con-
nectlon with the sugar schedule was sub
mltted to the senate to-day, SO far as
concerns the attempted bribery of Sen
ators Hunton and Kyle. The report af-
ter rcciting the facts of BUTTS proffer
of money to the son of Senator Hunton
and to Senator Kyle says:
'Ncur committee are absolutely iusti-
fled in stating that the facts have beea
established by the evidence, notwitll-
strnGing the denial ON the part of Charles
w. Buttz. There is no evidence to SHOW
the truth Of Mr.. BUTTS statement to
SENATOR Kyle and Eppa Hunton, Jr. that
syndicate of bankers and capitalists
had raised Il sum of money to be used
for the purpose of defeating the pending
t; Tiff bill, or that there was an agent of
81 CHI syndicate in Washington, and that
any money was in Washington for that
purpose Buttz denies that he made
any such statement, or that he had any
knowledge of the existence of such Il
syndicate, or that he was the agent or
repro sentative of any one. He further
denies that he has any money himself"
Judge DitteDhoefer, counsel for Cor
respondent Edwards, appeared before the
sugar trust investigation to-day and an
nc unced that he had advised his client
not to give the committee the names of
persons from whom he received certain
information bearing upon the subject UNI
der investigation, He quoted the SUI
prone court decisions in the kilbourne
| and Counselman cases in support of his
position. Among other reasons Judge
Dittenhoefcr stated that for Mr.. Edwards
to disclose the names Of his informants
would be to degrade him as IL newspaper
man.
The committee overruled Judge Often
hoefer's objections and again called Mr..
Edwards in, repeated it's demand that he
give the names requested in the first in
stance, and received his final decision not
to comply with the demand He was
Their excused and the committee again
went into secret session. No decision as
to future course of action was reached
to-day.
Senator Gallery and ex-Congressman
Lefevere of Louisiana were before the
committee later in the day and absolute
ly denied the story of their participation
| in the alleged conference with the sugar
trust people.

TRAGIC DEATH OF A SOLDIER.
Charles Dicl<crsOn Of Fort Smelling
Commit Suicide.

st. Paul, May 2G. - Private Charles
Dickcrson, of Company e, Third regi-
ment, Department of Dakota, stationed
at Fort Smelling, committed suicide in
one of the squad rooms of the fort at
$3.50 last evening by shooting himself
through the body with rifle. The sui
eide was committed in terribly tragic
manner. Private Dickerson got excused
from parade duty and, it is alleged, Sc
cured possession of liquor in some man.
ner and drank himself into Il half-crazed
condition. What motive prompted the
soldier to kill himself is unknown, unless
for the time being he lost control Of his
reason. Private Dickerson was thirty
eight years old, unmarried, and bore
good reputation. There is said to have
been no reason for his tragic death be-
You'd the fact that he was half-crazed
with liquor. His treatment at the hands
of his superior officers and by his COM
panions, it is said, has always been the
best conceivable, and he had never been
heard to complain. 1t is the first suicide
that has occurred in army circles for
plumber OF years, and has created q
profound sensation.

BROTHER OF BUTTE.
Another Man From Duttzville Lets
His Light Shine In st. Paul.


His Light Shine In st. Paul.
st. Paul, May 2G.-D. II. Buttz of
Buttzville, n. D., is in the city to-day,
but will return to his home tonight. Mr..
Buttz is Il brother of the now widely
known Maj. Buttz Of Buttzvllc, who is
having Il little difficulty with some of the
senators down at Washington over the
charges of alleged bribery made against
him. MIR. Buttz is rather handsome
looking man with sunburnt complexion
and clear cut features. He did not seem
to be bit worried over the disa greeable
affair in which his brother is involved at
Washington.
"All l know about the bribery case is
that there is a great deal more at the
bottom of it than has yet come out 1t
is not ut all reasonable to suppose that
man. a lawyer. with the degree of i'll
teEigcnce and the experience possessed
by the major would make such crude
sort of a break as he is credited with,
even il he should have been dishonorable
enough to do so. But the fact, of the
matter is that the major never would do
anything dishonorable"
Mr.. Buttz then went on to explain that
his brother had been for some time past
very successful lobbyist and pusher of
legal claims at Washington, and the
present move was probably made by an
tagonistic parties to head off some work
in which Maj. Buttz was engaged and
which promised to result successfully.

Annual Report of the State Insu-
rance commissioners

rance Commissioners.
st. Paul, May 2G.--I'art of the TWEEN
ty-third annual report Of the state in
suraDce commissioner was received yes
terday. 1t covers all fire and marine i'll
surance business Of the state. An inter-
esting portion of it relates to the advisa-
bility of legislation to prevent losses by
fire, concerning which Commissioner
Smith says:
1.-The rates OF insurance were increased
during 1893 20 per cent. and still there
was heavy loss to the insurance COM
panics. 1t would seem that some legis-
lation was necessary to prevent the great
waste Of property by fire. 1t is well
established fact that about one-third of
the fires are caused by incendiarism, and
still we seldom hear of parties being
convicted Of the crime of arson, prob
ably for the reason that there is no officer
whose duty it is to investigate the causes
Of fires. Ii some of the cities of the
Eastern states the Office of fire marshal
has been created, whose duty it is to in
vtstigate the causes of all fires occurring
il the cities and prosecute offenders
where it is shown that fires resulted from
incendinrisnl. This officer is paid from
the tax collected of the insurance COM
rnnics, and does not increase the tax
rates in the cities. 1 would recommend
the passage of a law authorizing such all
officer in the cities Of this stutc.''

st. Paul, May 2G.-After session
EAlch lasted over ten hours, the state
bSSrd of worlds fair commissioners COM
pleked their work yesterday and ad-
.1strned, probably never to reassemble
The meeting was held in the governors
Office at the capitol. All the board ex-
aeept the eA-otticio members We're present.
lAfter eve,-l obligation has been can
cell A3athc board still has in its possess
sch the sum of SIS, 800, Which reverts to
the state. Dcducting this amount from
the appropriation of $15O,OOO the sum Of
$l32,OOO remains, which shows just what
the great exposition cost the State Of
Minnesota. Aside from the cash bal
ance left ON hand, $4,000 worth of per-
mancnt exhibits have been brought back
from Chicago intact and donated to vari-
GUS Institutions as the special act of the
legislature provides.
Several bills were allowed. One of
these, and the largest. was in favor Of
the Great Northern road and for 81 ,2l4O.
This item has been under consideration
for some time and was not paid owing
to the fact that it's accuracy was dis
lifted. With this the last liability of
the commission was was wiped out and
the books closed.
The final report to the governor will
not be made public for several weeks.
With to-day it will be placed in the
hands of the printers and as fast as the
| pltof sheets are turned off copies will be
sent to members of the board for theil
approval before the whole goes to press,
1t will contain a summarized statement
by the commission and u detailed report
by each of the treasurers.
One of the most generally satisfactory
items Of the boards work is the return
of the permanent exhibits and their dis
tribution. These were the booths of the
forestry. mines and mining, fishery, hor.
ticuiu.ral, historical, educational, fauna
and fora exhibits. The actual expense OF
| obtaining these exhibits was $4,000, all
of which is saved to the state Aside
from this expense was that of arranging
and repairing the booths after they were
brought back from Jackson Park

The Chief of the Bureau of Ordnance
TeStifies,

Washington, May 26. = Capt. w. T.
Sampson, chief of the bureau of orduun. re
in the navy department., appeared to-day
before the house committee investigating
ar,nor plate Irregularities. He said he
did not consider the blow holes Il serious
defect. Capt Sampson related how sus-
picion was arrousal of the so.lndness Of
the plates furnished during IL long period.
They, were subjected to tests ard Capt.
Sampson found the suspicious circum-
stances that the plate invariably i'm
proved on the second test. The con-
clusion was that the Plates were being
surrcptitiously doctored between tests.
In answer to questions as to the motives
Tor frauds Capt. Sampson said he be.
liavca the heads Of the company knew
nothing of the operations. A Mr..
Schwab was general superintendent. He
had a certain amount of stock in the
company, so that his interests would lie
