STATEMENT AMPLIFIED.
Senator Gallery Again Before the Sugar
Trust Investigating Committee.

Senator Canery Again Before the Sugar
Trust Investigating Committee.
WASHINGTON, June IL. = Senator
Caffery went before the sugar trust
investigating committee yesterday to
amplify the statement heretofore
made by him concerning his meeting
with Mr.. Havemeyer at Senator
Brice's house. He was reported in his
former testimony to have said he had
been requested to see Mr. Havemeyer,
''who happened to be in Senator
Brice's house, but he had not stated
the manner in which Mr.. Havemeyer
happened to be there, which he wished
to do.
Prior to seeing Mr.. Havemeyer,"
Mr.. Caffery said, there was a dis
cussion between those present and
ex-senator White and myself as to the
comparative methods of the ad va
loren and specific rates of duty on
sugar There was a great deal of
difference of opinion on this point,
and Senator Brice stated there was a
gentleman in the city who knew more
about the operation of any given rate
OF duty on sugar than perhaps any
other man in the United States, and
that if it was agreeable he would send
for him. That man was Mr.. Have
meyer. Senator Brice asked me if I
had any objection to meeting Mr.
Havemeyer and having a discussion
with him on this particular point.
told him I had none. 1 simply de-
sired to state Mr.. Havemeyer came to
the house in pursuance of the invita-
tion of Mr. Brice.''
Henry R. Reed went before the
committee and was examined at some
length. he added he knew nothing
of any speculation in sugar stocks by
United States senators
The committee will report Mr.. Chap
mans refusal to answer questions to
the senate and willunot probably ask
him to appear again. The proceed
ings will be similar to tn ose in the
case of Edwards and Shriver.

RAPID WORK.
Nineteen Pages of the Tariff
Bill Disposed Of
The Brakes Are Taken Off
at Last.
THREE BIG SCHEDULES
RaiIrOaded Through By the
Senators Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, June 12.-The brakes
were taken of in the senate yester-
day and more progress was made with
the tariff bill than during any pre-
vious three weeks of the considers
ton of the measure. Three schedules,
spirits and wines; cotton and fax;
jute and hemp manufactures
from paragraph 237 to PIT, in
elusive, comprising nineteen pages of
the bill, were disposed of. The entire
cotton schedule, ten pages OF the bill,
was finished in thirty minutes. The
Republicans made no opposition to
the amendment proposed to this
schedule, maintaining that the rates,
though reduced, were SO changed as
to make the cotton schedule the most
scientific ever prepared. Bags,
made of burlap, for grain and cotton
barging, were placed on the free list
The collar and cuff paragraph, pro-
viding for duty of so cents per dozen
pieces, and 80 per cent ad valorem.
while shirts or other articles COM
posed wholly or in part of linen carry
duty Of so per cent, provoked con-
siderable discussion and more or less
Amusement. To-day the woollen
schedule was taken up. Mr. Quay
gave notice just before adjournment
that he would, when this schedule
was reached, resume the speech he
began delivering four months ago.

OWENS TALKS PLAIN.


I'm His Contest Against Breckinridgs He
Does Not AIince words.
LEXINGTON, KY, June 12--From
5000 to 5000 strangers were here yes
terday to hear w. L. @. Owens and
Evan Settle, the candidates for con-
xress in opposition to Colonel Brock
inridge. They spoke in the opera
house to crowd only measured by
the walls. Owens was introduced by
Judge Jere B. Morton, an ex-Confed-
crate soldier and = man of high stand
ing in the district.
Owens made several illusions to
Colonel Breckenridge, but made no
new attack on him. He said, how
ever, he stood by every word uttered
in his famous Paris speech, when he
attacked Breckenridge bitterly. He
said if anybody took offense at any
thing he had or would say, he wanted
that person Ito come to him
like a man, and not sneak of behind
that long-eared, long hs ired, irrespon-
sible, crazy brute, Charles c. Moore.
Moore publ ished in his prohibition
paper several columns last week
against Owens, and this allusion is a
rehe ction on Breckenridge, who is
said by Owens men to have furnished
Moore with the information.
Settle and Owens spoke again last
night at the court house, to a room
full of voters.

INFLAMED NERVES.


Topeka Doctors Have a Specimen Before
Them for Discussion.
The Topeka academy of medicine and
surgery met last evening at 723 Kansas
avenue. The main paper of the evening
was read by DR.. s. G. Stewart on the sub
ject "Neuritis." This malady, to put it
in common, everyday terms, means Sin
fiammation of the nsrves."
DIR. Stewart brought with him a pa
tient whom he said was suffering from
the disease. The mans lower linn bs
we're almost paralyzed, but showed signs
of recovery.
The man was injured about nine yea rs
ago while working in the field.
DR.. w. s. Lindsey didn't think the pa
tent showed signs indicating that he
had neuritis, but most of the doctors
agreed with DR.. Stewart.
DR.. d. B. Colcord was to have read a
paper on "Microbic Diseases" but as the
next meeting, and DR.. J. c. McClintock
reported a case Of pelvic adhesion. The
patient, a lady, was present with her
nurse. DR.. McClintock said that as he
had been out of the city and had been so
busy he had not prepared a written
report of the case. The case is being
treated by massage.
DIR. j. T. Lewis arose and said that he
thought DR.. McCiintock had not pre-
scented his case in the proper shape, and
that they weren't there for the purpose
of discussing massage.
DR.. McClintock said: 81 apologized at
first for not having prepared a written
report l have been out of the city and
the past week l have done work which
is harder than any worker in the field"

STANFORD,S ESTATE.

Attorney for. Mrs. Stanford Talks About
ths Claims Filed Against It.
NEW YORK, June 12.-Russel j. Will
SON. attorney for the estate of the
late Senator Leland Stanford, speak
ing yesterday of the claims of the
United States against the stock hold
srs Of the Southern Pacific company
and the fling of the claim against the
Stanford estate, said: II have been
travelling for several days and have
heard little of the more recent pro-
:eedings in congress I understand
Congressman Geary was to make a
speech in committee on the subject,
but have not heard wheeler he has
done so, and do not know the latest
developments
Senator Stanford died on June FL,
1898, and the first notice to the credi-
tors of his estate was published June
27 following. BY California law all
claims not presented within ten
months after such publication are
barred by limitation So the govern
ment, after waiting until the very
last was nearly over, suddenly IN
jected this claim into my Office This
was on May 20, a Saturday when bus
mess hours close at noon AfterWard
it was claimed that the statue of linn
itation did not run against the gov
eminent anyhow. offered them the
privilege of withdrawing the claim,
and testing that little point, but they
did d ct care to do it.
s'Our position is that the govern
nent has no rights over the outside
property of the stockholders. If a
man owes you a debt secured by
mortgage and promissory note and
you sell the security under foreclos-
ure and the proceeds do not pay the
note you still have a claim on him for
the balance. but if you merely have a
lien on certain of his property, all
you can do is to sell that; you have no
further rights against his property.
I'VE claim that the government has
merely lien on the railroad prop
erty. They can take it at the proper
time if they wish, but they can not
proceed further against the stock
holders"
IF the Stanford estate had to pay
this claim, would there be much 1eft?''
was asked.
20, yes," Mr. Wilson said, ''there
would be what would be a very tidy
fortune to most people still remain
ing. 1 have not the faintest idea
what the attorney general means to
do, or what action congress will take
in the matter"

FORT GIBSON, I. T., June 12.-The
