FOREIGN FINANCIAL,

NEW YORK, April 9.-Evening Posts Lon
don financial cablegram: The stock markets
continued good today on cheap money. Gilt
edged stocks were naturally the best and
were most affected by the change in the bank
rate, the speculative markets being dampened
by the approach of Easter, to say nothing Of
the unsettled political situation. The settle
ment has been satisfactorily concluded Ameri-
cans were good, but the close was under the
best. There is some disposition on the part
of those who bought Americans just after the
elections to realize as soon as they can get a
fair profit. Canadian Pacifcs are bid for in
the street. About f200 900 in gold from the
Cape have been bought for Japan and the
continent at the previous price quoted. The
Paris bourse opened firm but closed dull. The
Berlin market steady.

SpElhSSS IL
TOPEKA, Kan, April 9.-Speaker

dGced a sensation today when he tes-
tilted in the bribery investigation. He
said: Harry Wilson, who | was told
was the agent of the American Book

in cash if l would apply the two-thirds
rule necessary in advancing bills
against the school book bill, and 81. 500
If the bill was defeated. He placed a
hundred dollar bill in my lap. I told
him l did not care for the money at
that time. and would take the matter
under advisement. Later, in reply to
letters from him. / wrote on one of
them, which l returned, that [ could
be Of no service to him.
Senator Titus sWOre that Senator
Lewelling took him to a room in the
National hotel and said that there was
something in it for both Of them" if
they could get a substitute adopted for
the original text book bill
Representative Dingus swore that
Representative Doyle had offered him
$3.50 if he would cease his fight for the
text book bill. Representative Smith
said that the statements made yester-
day by Representative Clark that ne
(Smith) had offered Clark $3.50 to op-
pose the Hackney amendment to the
railroad bill were utterly false The
only conversation he remembered hav-
ing had with Clark was when Clark
had told him that he needed $500.
Miss Nelly Bennett, clerk Of the house
committee on engrossed bills (Smith's
committee) testified as to a conversation
in the committee room between Clark
and Smith. Clark said there ought to
be something" in that railroad bill;
that he needed 5000 or $500 and asked
Smith If he thought there was any
thing in. it. Senator Jumper told of
two attempts to bride him to vote
against the stockyards bill.
