Gov. Lind Of Minnesota also tried his
hand on President Mckinley to secure
the return Of the Thirteenth Minnesota
from the Philippines but without sue
cess and then sent a message to the
legislature asking it TO use its good
Offices With the president to secure the
return OF the boys. He states that Col.
Ames has notified him that the reRl-
ment wants to return home. So far the
Legislature has paid no attention to the
request and probably will not a. it is re-
publican and as this is q sort Of republi-
can wal to bolster up the administration
and the republican party for the next
political campaign, it is not at ell prob
able that the legislature will urge the
matter. One hundred thousand men
now appears to be the demand in the
Philippines, which ought surely to
crafty all republican ambition for war.

HARRISBURG, Pa, April 10. Majority
and minority reports were reported to
the house from the committee which
has for several weeks past been investi-
eating the charges Of attempted bribery
in connection with the balloting for
United States senator and the considera-
tion in the house of the McCarroll jury
bill. The latter bill, which was even
tually defeated, was said to have been
introduced to aid Senator Quay in his
then approaching trial in the Philadel.
phia court.
The majority report recites at consid.
cradles length testimony taken by the
committee and says the evidence dis
closed clearly that undue means were
taken by many persons to corruptly
solicit members Of the house for the
purpose of
Influencing Their Official Action
in reference to the McCarrol jury bill
and in reference to their official action
as to the election Of an United States
senator.
This corrupt solicitation, the report
says. consisted of offers of money. posi-
ton, advantage and political prefer
ment. The report charges that III fur
therance of an unlawful conspiracy to
carry out the scheme rooms were main
tanned at the Lochiel hotel. In the con
Guiding paragraph of the report nine
persons are named against whom the
committee recommends that legal ac-
ton be brought. This paragraph is as
follows:

spectfully reports that there is. in their
