fsnecial 10 The Heraldl

Boise, Ida, Feb. Pho agreement
has been reached as yet as TO the gen
eral appropriation bill. but the belief
still obtains that it will be presented
as originally agreed upon by the COM
mittee. 1t seems that the failure 10 Sc
cure a quorum of the house majority
in the caucus the other night. which
practically resulted in abandonment or
the plan TO put the bill through under
caucus rule, was due TO d dispute over
the authority for the call. According to
statements made, Representative Aver
lit, the leader of the majority, was not
consulted as to the matter, and his
friends took umbrage at what seemed
to be a deliberate slight, and refused
to attend.
A rumor which appeared to have a
good foundation was circulated today
to the effect that the Republican-Popu-
list senate caucus had decided to adj
journ the upper branch the minute
the clock showed the sixty days OF the
session We're ended, no matter what the
condition of the appropriation or other
measures
The disposition of the majority of the
house is understood to be to proceed
several days beyond the limit. The
sixty days will be up March ,
The house today came to the conclu-
sion to observe WashingtOn's birthday,

After roll call, Hess of Fremont took
the floor and, after paying d glowing
tribute to the Father of our country"
he moved adjournment for the day,
which prevailed with but two dissent

said, if McCune'S campaign was being
run on the square, and when he came
over he would come to stay and not
fit about. from bush to bush. Late in
the evening 1 saw Mr.. Harris, and told
him Of this He asked me if Jackson
would certainly come over, and could
not state positively. He told me then
that he wanted to make sure of Jack
sons vote, as he wanted to know where
he stood. Then he said: Now, you go
and see him again tonight, and have
this thing secured, so that we may
know absolutely if he is going to vote
for McCune. Find him, anyhow, secure
his vote. Never mind the expense
I saw Jackson at the Cullen hotel a
few minutes later and told him 'FYhat
Harris had said. Jackson said that he
believed the whole McCune campaign
was being run on a basis of corruption,
and that this was another evidence

asked Judge Dickson.

in Jackson We have been brought
very close together, and when he says
anything to me, it has weight. His
suggestion made me think Harris might
have meant to bride Jackson, but il
had not occurred to me before"
Juss here there came a diversion in
which Judge Dickson and Mr.. Evans
were involved, and both grew wrathy.
Judge Dickson said that he did not
think Mr. Evans had used strictly hon
orable methods in the examination, and
in putting words in the mouth of the
witness.
Il am just as honorable as you are, -
cried Evans, violently, and if you tn nix
that just because you have this COM
mittee with YOU
What does Mr.. Evans mean?" inter-
rupted Senator Whitney. Does he in
tend to insinuate that this committee is
for or against any man in this case?"
Not at all, not at ALL" apologiZed
Evans, in haste and stopped.
Mr.. WINS was then asked about the
conversa ton between WINS and
Hughes, but here Mr.. Evans objected,
and after arguments, pro and con- the
objection was sustained.
would you have carried the mes
sage from Harris to Jackson, if you had
thought that Harris wanted to bride
Jackson?" was asked Mr.. WINS
Il certainly would not
Mr. Van Colt started to ask Mr.. WINS
about the $1,000 statement, but again
there was objection from Mr.. Evans,
and again the objection was sustained.
The argument on the question was de-
ferred until this morning.

Cummings thought the committee
ought TO wait Mr.. Sorenson said that
while he was anxious to see the in
vestigation as wide as possible, he
thought Jackson's testimony would
not be competent without WINS and
ne did not see how the committee
could accept it at this time.
Senator Howell considered the com
mittee competent to judge as to the
relevancy OF Jackson's testimony, and
wanted 10 hear it. He moved that the
testimony be admitted. On the rollcall

lift and REPRESENTATIVE Mansfield Vot-

1Ir. Jackson's testimony proved to
be hardly material enough to warrant
all this preliminary trouble. He de-
scribed a meeting with Senator Cham
bers, where the possibility, as he de-
scribed il. OF his voting for Mr.. McCune
was discussed. Later Mr.. WINS mad
come 10 him with a statement from
Fisher Harris.

Juneau, Alaska, Feb. 16 (via Vancou-
yer, Feb. 22).-Numerous bench claims
have been located on Tahkin creek. in
the Porcupine district. Most of the land
in that vicinity has been staked off and
the prospects are said to be good for a
heavy output this summer. The Cana

ritory back of Haine's Mission, the

I go all around this room-I 20 to every
member ard can repeat what Bishop
what Bishop Whitney said to me. if I
repeat II = million times, because all you
gentlemen come in and testify that ] have
gone TO YOU repeatedly and told YOU what
Bishop Whitney said TO me? Ultimately
and finally you must come back to nv
statement as to what Bishop Whitney
said to me. That is the whole strength;
you cannot add anything to it.
STRENGTH OF EVIDENCE.
Let US take the case at bar. Mr.. Wins
talked with Fisher Harris. Whatever
Mr.. WINS says relative TO the converse
ton with Fisher Harris, it can never grow
stronger. You never can add to it. You
never can detract from IL by what Mr..
WINS may have gone out and told others.
What he said TO Jackson to influence
Jackson, jackson may refer to that. Why?
Because WINS went out and was delegated
10 ina him and tell it. But what he may
90 out and tell Hughes don't add to what
Harris told him. What he may have told
Lien don't add TO the strength of it. And
1 viii venture to say, upon my honor as
n lawyer, that MIR. Evans knows that this
is hearsay testimony; that it is not
proper. Mr.. Stewart is lawyer, and [
venture to say that Judge Shurtliff in his
experience knows Of these things and
probably others, when you think of it by
the illustration / made that you can
never add one bit to the strength of my
testimony by the fact that ! may nave
gone over the city and told every inhab-
liant in it. Therefore. what Mr.. WINS
may have said to Hughes, what he may
have told Lien, is absolutely hearsay tes-
timony and should not be received by this
committee.
EASY MONEY IN SIGHT.
Mr.. WINS told me on the evening in
question" Hughes said, that he could
have had his hands on $1,000 of Nc
Cune's money if he had wished that
night" Hughes explained that Wins
had told him that Fisher Harris had
asked him to go and buy q ckson's vote.
He explained further that Harris had
told him to get Jackson's vote that
night at any expense, and the only con-
struction he could put on that state
ment was that he had meant to offer
money for the vote. WINS said he
couldn't go into a proposition like that
and did not go any further with it."
Mr.. Stewart asked whether WINS
claimed he had had any authority from
McCune to approach Jackson, and
Hughes snid he had not. That ended
his examination
Newman Lien was called on the same
point, bat as Mr.. WINS was reported to
be waiting outside, Lien was excused
and WINS summoned.
JACKSON MEETS CHAMBERS.
Mr. WINS told of a conversation with
Fisher Harris in which the latter told
him to find Jackson and get him to
talk to Senator Chambers about his
vote.
7 arranged the meeting" said Mr.
WINS land Jackson then told Senator
Chambers that as soon as he was salts
fed that Judge Powers stood no chance
of election, and he had satisfied certain
pledges to Judge King, he would vote

PHILADELPHIA ELECTION.
Republican Candidate Received
Record breaking Plurality.

Philadelphia, Feb. 22.-The plurality
for Ashbridge, the Republican candi-
date for mayor in yesterdays cleo
ton, is 119, 766, the largest ever given
candidate for the office. He carried
every ward in the city, and his total
vote, 143,2O4 is the heaviest vote ever
given a candidate in the city, except
candidates for president. The vote for
Hoskins, the Democrat, was 343S, the
smallest vote accorded a candidate of
that party for a city office in many
years.
Both branches of the new city cOun-
ell will have overwhelming Republican
majorities The elections throughout
the state showed mixed results, the
general trend being Republican.

REEDS SWELLED HEAD.
General Shafter Declares the House
Needs a New Speaker.

Los Angeles, Feb. 22--Just prior to his
reception at the Westminster hotel today,
Major General W. r. Shafter said: Il
have been a Republican all my life, and
| think that Mr.. Reed showed exceedingly
poor taste and very little courtesy in his
recent actions in working against the
president In my opinion, if there is an
extra session of congress a part of its
work will be the election of a new speak
er of the house. Mr.. Reed has grown very
rabid of late and is at present suffering
with a sweled head. When any man gets
to that point in his career he is lost. Mr..
Reed is, to say the least, acting very un-
wisely and will in time see the error of
his Way."
