secret Investigation I'm Progress In the
State Department..
NEW YORK, Oct. rs "A Washinp,on
Special to the Press says:
IAN investigation of the State Ia.
partments financial affairs is in nro.
gress. The auditor for the STATE IA
pRrsment has been pushing the ina uirv
TOR some time. II is reported thai dis.
coVeries have been made OF the deposit
OF FUNDS In private banks, of the diver
sion OF receipts from various sources To
osher IMAM Government channels and OF
general condition of confusion and ir.
regularity that may yet develop some
startling disclosur es.
AT the State Department the fact
het an investigation Is in progress ia
not denied, but 1t is positively said that
mourning OF an incriminsting charac Ter ia
1nYolved In the affairs. and that the re-
SUI Will simply effect the es "a blishmeut
or perhaps better method of book
keeping. At the Treasury Departments
the investigation Is also admitted, but
no one will venture an official opinio n
rs to what the result will be.
The m Ystery observed at the State
Department in the auditors office tends
to confirm the suspicion of the serious.
ness OF the investigation now going on.
Yet it is probable that nothing definite
Will be known of the result until the
auditor makes his report to the Secre
tary OF the Treasury"
The Roanoke daily times. (Roanoke, Va.) 1895-1897, 1895-10-26

EDITOR OF The TIMEs:-The ring is
trying hard to make 1t appear that Mr..
Watts did not do wrong in the Gas and
Water matter, but there are few things
yet unexplained. If Mr.. Watts did not
favor the Gas and Water bill, why
didn't he say 80 through the public press
in February 1894, when the people OF
the city were holding meetings to pro-
test against the passage OF the bill.
Waslit because Mr.. Watts thought the
people unworthy OF notice?
Mr.. Watts in an interview with THE
TIMES said he offered the Gas and Water
Company bill by request. just as he
would have done any other bill that
might have been sent him. Now Mr..
Watts offered two bills at the same time,
bill No. 321 and bill No. 322, the last
named being the Gss and Water Com
pany bill. The senate journal shows
that Mr.. Watts offered bill No. 32l by
request and the Gas and Water Com
pany bill as patron. How does this hap.
pen that he made difference between
these two bills and does this corroborate
the statement that he offered the Gas
and Water Company bill lust as he
would any other bill?
Now Mr. Watts is reported as saving
in speech that he offered the bill as
patron 80 he could protect the city of
Roanoke. Why didn't Mr.. Watts saw
this In his interview. Why ia 1t that
Mr. Watts says he offered the bill by
request just as he would have done anY
other bill, and when the record is pub
lisfed he comes with a new report, that
he offered 1t as patron to protect tho
dear people.
Now Mr.. Rowan comes with an old
letter that has been pigeon-holed for q
long time and in that Mr.. Watts SAWS
he went over the bill with Mr.. Thomas
and cut out all the Objectionable
parts Of the bill, so we see Mr.. Watts
offered tho bill as patron and that he
had no objection to the bill. Dir. Watts
could see no objection to bill that give
the Gao and Water Company the power
to grind the people Of Roanoke and
make us dance TO the music OF the Gas
and Water Company.
If Mr.. Watts had no objection to the
bill in February, 1894, as he wrote Mr..
Rowan, why Is IL ne sees so much now
and obj It's to the facts being published ?
II Mr.. Watts was opposed 10 the bill
In 1894 he treated the people Of Roanoke
with contempt by his sile ace, and for
WHO feaeoh snoulu nos receive our sup
port. He kept silent until he wanted
our votes. Voters, remember that II
Mr.. Watts carries this city Il will be an
endorsement OF the Gas and Water Com
pany bill, and you may not be- surprised
10 see that bill become law and you
become the hewers of wood and drawers
OF water for this great corporation.

OPENING FOR DEFENSE.
Tho Reliability of the Roll Gall Durrant's
Chief Hone.

Chief Hope.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 25.-Gen. Dick.
inson made the opening argument for
the defense to day. He spoke from
morning until night and then announced
that ne would not conclude his argu-
ment until the court met next Tuesday.
Dickinsons speech was in the nature OF
surprising fact that he did not attack
the integrity OF the prosecutions wit
nessee or denounce the methods of the
police, as Attorney Duprey intimated
would be done in his opening address to
the jury. Nevertheless. it Is generally
conceded he made the most of which is
considered weak case.
He based his whole defense on the
reliability OF the roll call, which shows
that Durrant attended DR.. Chenev's
lecture on the afternoon OF April 8, and
challenged the prosecution to prove
that the call was incorrect, Mrs. Leake
and Mrs Crossett, the two elderly Wit
nesses who testified that they saw
Durrant and Miss Lamont nesr the
church, were treated gently.
Dickinson said that, while he believed
the witnesses told what they believed
to be the truth, he was convinced that
their minds had been worked upon by
reading about the case. In support OF
this he cited the fact that neither wit
ness told what she said she knew about
the case until about three months after
the trial commenced.
