Congressman Fred c. Stevens does
not fear an indictment, he says and he
has given to the G o b e, for the In.
formation Of Its readers, the full story.
OF the now famous conference in Grand

shop, in order to correct any mdsap-
prehensfon which may have arisen
from the efforts Of the other partici.
pants in that famous gathering to dis
gutse from the public the purpose OF
this meeting of its servants.
MT. Stevens says that he came back
to st. Paul from his official duties as
soon as he was informed that the boolxs
Of the Minnesota Savings bank showed
an apparent overdraft on his account,
and that his return was for no other,
purpose than to secure the fullest in
vestigation into all the facts connected.
with the affairs Of the insolvent bank
of which he was an officer and director,
Mr.. Stevens says that there has never,
been an actual overdraft, but that the
apparent existence of such thing is
due to the fact that while his withxi
drawals have been properly charged in,
the books, credits due to him have not.
been properly shown in the accounts.t
This, he says, is the reality in conneo<
ton with his account in the minnesota
Savings bank and that he has been en-
deavor1ng to secure the fullest inquiry,
into that apparent overdraft, as well as
all other circumstances bearing on his
connection with the bank by the pres[
ent grand jury. This, and nothing else,
was the purpose of his meeting with
Mayor Doran and Grand Juror Burns
at the latter's office a few days ago,
That, he says, Is the only conversation
relating to his case that he has had
with Mr.. Burns or any other member
Of the grand jury, and that was the
only object of that conference
County Auditor D. NJ Sullivan sx<
sumes the entirs responsibility for the
second conference which aroused pubs
lio curiosity, explaining, as does Con-
gressman Stevens also, that the meet
ing in the police court vault was solely
to arrange for the giving of bail in the
event that an Indictment should be re-
turned against the congressman. Mr..
Sullivan says that 1t was he who
brought Mr.. Clausen and the others
there, and that there was no talk Of.
or thought Of any design to influence
the action of the grand Jury in regard
to any pending investigation.
Mr.. Sullivan personally disclaims any
intercourse with the grand jury, and
declares fatly that he has never ex-
changed word with any grand juror
relating to the case of the Minnesota
Savings bank, or any other case which
might be under consideration by it.

ultimate recovery. She arrived in the

brandy and drank 1t like water. Armed
only with revolvers and bayonets, by

the Italians, and the situation became
serious. A Greek tried to pacify a

an Italian fired and wounded the Carl

Instantly the cry was raised: "a
Greek has been killed." and the villa

melee became general. but the Italians
displayed a flag Of truce and the en-
great difficulty.
Several italian officers told me
they did not expect to reach land alive,
as their ruffianly soldiers would surely
kill them.
