Republicans were in control Of the
Republican finance committee and re-
sponsible for legislation.
After further parleying, Mr.. German,
resuming his speech, charged that the
scheme was to provide greater appro
priations than the revenues could meet,
and thus prepare the wey for higher
tariff. The senator then argued that
the revenue difficulties were due to
the Mckinley law and extravagant Re-
publican expenditures.
In closing his speech, the senator,
with sarcasm, referred to the secre-
tary Of the navy, and his ambition to
build up, man and equip a splendid
navy. Our great secretary of the
navy" said he-then, after pause,
that is to say, our secretary of the
navy, who is not great; who went into
the cabinet because of the success Of
Democratic ideas, as we supposed,
and asked for more ships and more
money"
He ended with an appeal to the SEN
ate to limit the expenditures if the rev.
enues could not be increased. Mr..
Stewart followed with a financial
speech, and then the senate adjourned.

PUBLIC DISAPPOINTED.
jackson Trial Sensation Failed to
Come I'm to the Mark.


NEWPORT, KY, April 2S.-The public ev-
identity expected sensations in todays testi-
mony at the Jackson trial. The court room
and the streets in the vicinity were crowd
ed. The sheriff had to use measures to
keep the crowd in the corridors from press
ing the door to the court room off its
hinges. 1t was expected that George H.
Jackson, the colored cab driver, would testi-
fly in the forenoon. That sensation was post
poned till afternoon. When it did take
place the sensation did not come up to ex-
pectations. Eleven witnesses were exam
ined during the day, and probably the prose-
cution will require all day tomorrow. The
lettsrs Of Scott Jackson to Pearl Bryan,
extending from early in 1895 until the mid
die of November, that year, were presented
to show that he was keeping up an ac-
quaintance with that lady. The principal
evidence in the afternoon was that of Charles
Mullen the liveryman, who testified that he
rented a cab on Jan. 81 to Alonzo Walling,
and that it was kept out nearly all night.
George Jackson, the colored cab driver, re-
lated the story of his trip from Cincinnati
to the place of the murder, the driver
of the cab, and identified Waliing as the
man who sat beside him. The cross-ex-
animation was not as severe as the public
had anticipated.

stock made to him then. His resigna-

came manager of the Harvey company in
March. He says that he did not go to Eu-
rope to arrange contracts with foreign gov
ernments, as stated In the senate resolution,
but to settle controversy with the foreign
agent of the company.
In reply to a question as to the cost of
manufacturing armor plate and the price
paid by the government, he said he believed
the cost to be from $3.50 to $500 per ton, while
the price paid is $3.50.

UNDER THE WHEELS.
A Horse Dashes Into an Electric
Car.

Henry Bachman, of Richfield, Minn.. drove
to Minneapolis yesterday with his horse and
buggy. In descending Lowry hill, the animal
took fright and became uncomfortable. The
buggy was overturned, throwing the driver
to the pavement, and both shafts broke One
snapped near the crossbar and dangled by the
side OF the animal as he dashed furiously
eIong Hennepin avenue. At the junction Of
Third street, an electric car was standing.
The horse losts his footing and slipped and
fell at the side of the car: One of his legs
went under the wheels while another broke
through the gates. Patrolman George Sim
clair ran forward and, seeing the struggling
animal, succeeded in extricating him. The
leg OF the animal that had gone through the
gates was stiff and scratched. The officer
LED the horse to neighboring stable, and
short time afterwards the owner walked down
the avenue looking for his horse. He had his
vehicle repaired and drove home

sensational Disclosures in the Per.
kins Case.


In the Perkins case yesterday mornine tba
deposition OF Mrs. Winters, fortune teller
OF Omaha, was introduced and for once tbs
TWO sides were a unit in a point of issue
Inc deposition was so very racy at one noint
Inat py common consent certain passa pes
were cut in the reading by Mr.. THOMPSON.
She knew Lola Mulvehill and told of a cir
cuInstance in which Mrs. MulvehiIl had said
she ana Mrs. Perkins were not sisters. but
that Mrs. Perkins exercised a certain power
over her and made her say they were sisters.
She said Mrs. Perkins was the daughter oe
Irish parents
Inc fortune teller stated that Mrs Perkins
at one time came to her and wanted har to
tell a certain gentleman that her name was
Lula Montez de las Vegas, Spanish ladv
anu nelr 70 fortune. They both admitted
tnat they were not sisters and had never met
until they were married women.
The whole morning was taken up with tbe
reading OF the dispositions, and when the noon
recess was taken there were more to be Of
fered for the Jury to hear.
In the afternoon DR.. Gates took the stand
and gave his evidence concerning the exam.
ination of the lady who called upon him
for medical examination, who, he insisted
was Mrs. Perkins. According to his testi-
mony there was nothing unusual in the ex-
animation. Mr.. Hall cross-examined him
at some length regarding her condition of
health, but the evidence was not important.
Julian Wood, one of the clerks in the in
surance Office, was the next witness. He tes-
titled to having received the application for
insurance in the Office, and sending 1t to the
home office. He had remarked to Mr.. Thomp-
son several of the peculiar features of the
application.
''I remarked said he, ''that 1t was Pc
culiar that she should have child thirteen
years Of age. That was in there. There
was a discrepancy in the questions and an

thirteen, and when we figured it out the dates

animation

animation.
j. D. Buxton, who is alleged to have en-
bezzled from the local postofice while acting
as cashier of the same, appeared before United
States Commissioner Bowen yesterday after
noon and waived examination
The defendant was represented by Attorney
Weed Munro, assisted by L. L. Longbrake.
District Attorney E. c. Stringer appeared for
the government. When court convened Mr.
Munro surprised the group of spectators in
the room by announcing that the prisoner
would waive examination. Mr.. Stringer had
no suggestions to make, and the commissioner
allowed the ball to remain at the figure which
had formerly been fixed, $4,000. Buxton's at
torneys stated that nothing would be done to-
ward securing bail until the amount had been
fixed by the United States district court In
st. Paul. Whatever that figure is, it will hold
good until the September term of court in
this city, when Buxton will appear for trial.
In the meantime the prisoner will remain in
the county jail until bailed out by friends.
