state treasurer. Phillips testified re-
lating to taking possession of the Office

up witnesses and procuring previous
testimony. The testimony of Burning
ton. Pettigrew, Humphrey, Crawford
and Diamond does not implicate Mccoy
in criminal way. McCoys attorneys

ficient to convict for conspiracy.

finished their argument this afternoon.

the morning.

upon the adjournment of that body,
which began Immediately after the adj

125 members of the house gave notice

Ex-Speaker Crisp. who was among

GROWERS OUTING BEGUN.

Cunning for Ducks.


Cunning for Ducks.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-The ores
ident, accompanied by DR.. O'Reilly, his
physician, Commander George w. Wild,
of the lighthouse board, and Command
er Lamberton, Inspector of the Fifth
lighthouse district, left here this morn
ing OH the Viola, for ten days days
shooting on the inland waters of North
Carolina.
There were many callers at the White
house today, more than have been seen
in one day for a long time past. Every
senator and representative who was
about to leave the city desired to put
in a last word for some favorite candi-
date, and came to the White house,
some of them fastened by the intima-
ton in the papers to the effect that
the president would probably leave
Washington himself during the day.
All these people were doomed to disap-
pointment, for the president was now
comfortably steaming down the muddy
Potomac before the first of the visitors
had reached the White house. His de-
parture was not unexpected, although
Mr.. Thurber, his private secretary,
said that it was not until late in the
night that the president finally deter
mined to take his outing. 1t is stated
that the movements of the ice
which covered the Potomac and the
waters of Chesapeake bay, and even
the North Carolina sounds, had dis
placed many of the buoyS and bea-
cons and other aids to safe naviga-
&c fn,
the light house officers to make a
personal inspection of the damage
in such cases, and estimates for re-
pairs. The president was aware Of
the fact that the inspection trip was
about to be made, and determined
to go along with the light house
officers for an outing, which he felt
to be needful, after the strain upon
his energies imposed by the heavy
work attending the close of congress,
SO, after an early breakfast, the
presidents carriage was driven
around to the rear of the White
house, and there, with Mr.. Thurber
and DR.. O'Reilly, his attending ply
sician, Mr.. Cleveland entered.
Mr.. Thurber said goodbye, and the
party was soon steaming down the
Potomac at ten-knot rate, bound
first for Hampton roads, taking the
buoys and light houses en- route.
1t is expected that the trip will last
about ten days. The North Carolina
sounds will be entered through the
Chesapeake & Albemarle canal, and
the Viola may go as far south as

IMMIGRATION DECREASES.
Statistics Show That Latest Ar

bic. !,
WASHINGTON, March 5.-A state
ment prepared at the immigration bu-
reau shows that the total number of
immigrants arriving at the ports of
the United States during the seven
months ended Feb. 1, 1895, was 1885.
as against 189. 5S2 for the seven months
ended Feb. 1, 1894, decrease of 6,207.
The arrivals at the port of New York
for the seven months from June 80,
$685. to Feb. 1, 1894, 100, S53; June 80, 1894,
to Feb.'1, 1895, 1888, decrease of 81 ,4S0,
or 80 per cent, as compared with last
year, when the number arriving was
very much less than any year since
$780,
A great decrease in immigration is
observed from Belgium, Denmark,
France, Germany, Norway, Finland,
Sweden and Switzerland compared with
same period of fiscal years 1893 and
1894. There is decrease of AZ per cent.
These countries usually furnish the
most desirable class of immigrants.
From Italy for the seven months of
the fiscal year 1894 and 1896 there was a
decrease of 5,96S, or "a per cent
The recent arrivals are chiefly of the
most undesirable classes, and are in
destitute circumstances, entailing great
labor upon immigration officials and
expense to steamship lines for main
tenance whilst undergoing inspection
and transportation of those debarred.
The actual number of outgoing alien
steerage passengers who came here as
immigrants cannot be accurately as
certained, but from the data furnished
by steamship companies it is found
that from Nov. l to Dec. 8, 1894, % ,544
steerage passengers left, whilst by bu-
reau statistics only 1856 immigrants
arrived in the month OF November,

CAST OUT The BEAM
IN THINE OWN EYE, SAY THE
PERFORMERS
TO LADY HENRY SOMERSET
Serious Charges Regarding the
DisreputabIe Character of
Some of Her Houses.

CHICAGO, March 5.-The statement
made in New York yesterday by Will
lam Everett Hicks, the reformer, that
many of Lady Henry Somerset's houses
in London were tenanted by disrepu-
tables is creating discussion that may
lead to an investigation of the charges.
The Daily News says: 1t is probable
that resolutions asking for an in
vestigation will be introduced at sew
eral of the clergymen's meetings next
Monday, and that Rev. George r.
Mitchell has been asked to preside at
an undenominat ional meeting to dis
cuss the matter and after due investi-
cation vindicate Lady Henry Somerset
or support William Everett Hicks in
his crusade. Said Rev. Frederick SulZeI
today:
Hicks holds too high a position
among the people of America to make
public statements of this character
which he has not verified by personal
investigation, and If Lady Henry Som
erSet is a SuffragiSt, as she claims, she
has no excuse for not knowing what her
agents are doing. The w. c. 7. u.
comes to the churches for support, and
we have a right to demand that its
highest officer be either indicated OF
the charge or, if found guilty, we must
withdraw our support. However, we
will take definite steps at our meeting
next week, and surely If the English
have a right to investigate our lynch
ers. they should not object to our in
vestigating their nobility"
Rev. T. G.. Atterberry, secretary oil

the Woman's temple, thinks the mat
ter should be investigated thoroughly
eve wish to know whom to support,
he said. THAT a mass meeting Should
be held in New York on this subject
shows what is expected of the leaders
of reform movements, regardless OF
sex"
Mrs. W. r. Sanborn said: "Mr. Hicks
is right to denounce Lady Somerset il
she is turning her estate into a deel
park to escape taxation. Think of 81,
coo acres on which not an acre is giver
to the rearing of child. Reformers
must learn that reform, like charity
begins at home"

II. o. ID. Is After Them Regarding

WASHINGTON, March 5.-Assistant
Attorney General Thomas, of the post

Mr.. Thomas decides that a publisher
who makes a demand for payment of

payment of arrearage has been made,
and that the publisher may prosecute

FEAR GERMANY's ARMY.
French Deputies Stirred Up Over
War Measures.

PARIS, March 5.-During the discus
sion Of the army budget in the chamber
of deputies today NJ. Roche. reporter of
the committee, said that France tried
to place her army upon a parity with
those Of other nations, but since 1887
the military expenditures of Germany
had exceeded those of France. The
German military doctrine was based
upon numerical strength. and Germany
now possessed an army ready to fight at
any moment. He maintained the SUI
perioriiy of the offensive system, when
he was interrupted by an insulting re-
mark from Socialist member. A great
uproar followed. and some minutes
elapsed before M. Roche was able to
proceed He then said that 542, 600
men ought TO be serving in the French
army; but. as fact, only 100000 were
serving. He demanded that the French
army should be as we'll organized as the
German army, claiming that the ecOno-
MIXING of few million francs might
mean defeat in the event Of war. APP
plause.l
Nj. Cavanagiac, minister Of war. re-
preached NJ. Roche for exaggerating the
gravity of the situation, maintaining
that the French army only numbered
about $4,000 less than the German army.
The debate was then adjourned.

BANK LAWS CLASH.
Supreme Court Deciding Prefer
ence OF Claims.

ence OF Claims.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-The SUI
preme court of the United States to-
day heard arguments in the case of
Charles Davis, plaintiff in error, VS..
the Elmira Savings bank. The case
involves the question as to whether
the claims of savings banks shall have
preference over other claims on ma
tional banks which have failed and
involve large interests. 1t appears
that at the time this case was in
the court of appeals May last there
were more than $1S,00O,0O0 of savings
bank deposits in national banks in
New York alone. Nearly all the states
have laws giving various preferences
in the administration of the assets of
insolvent banks. There are in charge
of the comptroller of the treasury the
assets of more than 100 national banks
in process of administration. Suits
have been brought in other states upon
such preferential statutes and more
are threatened. The moneys realized
from the assets of these failed ma
tional banks are in the treasury wait
ing distribution by the comptroller of
the currency to the creditors of the
as creditor. The decision in the pres
ent case will, when made, determine
what shall be done in all similar cases
with such moneys, and will not only
affect the savings banks, but the depos-
itors of the failed national banks as
well. There is apparently a conflict
between the state of New York and the
congressional statute bearing on the
question as there is between the ma
tional law and laws of various other
states.
The supreme court of New York and
the court of appeals of that state have
both held in the case now before the
supreme court Of the United States
that the state law was valid and that
the savings bank was entitled to a
preference in the settlement in the
affairs of the Elmira National bank.

GAINESVILLE Germans Come In for
Fortunes.


GAINESVILLE, Wis, March s.
There is an estate valued at $251, 900, 600
now about to be distributed among
the MetZinger family in Germany and
the United States. John G. and Frank
Metzinger reside in this city, and they
nave been informed by their attorney
that they will undoubtedly receive
their allotment by the first of May.
The estate in question Is located in
Holland, and was that of member of
the Metzinger family who died in
Holland 100 years ago, leaving
no will. He was German,
although born in Alsace. After
wards he went to Holland and
engaged in mercantile business and
shipping, in which he amassed a large
fortune. His estate has been in litiga-
ton for years and is now almost defln-
1tely settled. There are now some
thing like 200 heirs to come in for a
share, and these are pretty well scat
tered, mostly, however in Germany and
the United States.
John G. Metzinger, who recently en-
gagged in the manufacture of children's
shoes in this city, made a voluntary
assignment last week.
