The Women's Congress.

PARIS. June 2i.-First impressions
are. after all is said and done. hardly to
be trusted. Certainly those in connec.
ton with the congress having for it's
subject The Work and Institutions OF
Women" were unfair. During the first
meetings Of the congress all the Ameri.
can women present were Of TIE opinion
that this international gathering was
something Of a farce, that its dignity
suffered from the use OF dinner bell in
stead OF gavel. and that there was an
escense Of absurdity in the presidents
stopping people who went over time by
pinching them. That Mile Sarah
Monod, writer and philanthropist, is a
clever woman can be denied by no one,
but her parliamentary methods are dis
tinctly individual, and do not on the
surface appeal to the order-lovipp
American as in keeping with the i'm
portance Of the body over which shs
presides.
Again. curious as have been the looks
Of various companies Of club women
have seen in the United States, was
impressed at that fret meeting Of the
congress with the belief that America
imply could not produce collection
N peculiar either in dress or bearing as

french woman's failure to make good

Such feelings. repeat, we're those

'sss. They have faded now. In their il

ATTORNEY-GENERAL
 AGAIN 4 WITNESS
He Was Questioned in Regard
 to Deals Accredited to Both Clark and Daly.

Washington, February 27.-Attorney Gen. eral Nolan of Montana was recalled in the Clark case to answer to the inforatlon al ready given by Eim concerning the Mon- tana election laws. This he did, citing all upon the subject.
 MT. Nolan stated that he had given small sums of money to persons who had gone over the state in search of testimony in the case. The money had been supplied by MT. Campbell. He had also procured $500 from Mr. Campbell as gift from Mr. Daly for the editor of an agricultural newspaper in Helena. Another item charged to him was S2,Uv1, which had been advanced to pay the expenses of witnesses in the Welcome disbarment proceedings
 This money had been received from MT Campbell, and most of it advanced to the state treasurer to secure him for the pay ment of these expenses. MT. Nolan sadd that he had advised the state treasurer to pay these expenses upon the assurance that the expenditure would be made good.
 Among others to whom Mir. Nolan had paad expense money for collecting evidence in the disbarment case was the cie-s of the state supreme court. MT. Foster seized upon this fact to put tine witness through a pretty sharp cross-examinat ton to show thaV thas official was transcending ims official duties, the case being before the court of which he was an official. Mir Nolan said that the clerk had gone to several points to investigate evidence. He had paid htm $S5 purely for expenses and not as an addition to his salary.
 Payment to Newspaper
 The question of payment of $500 to a Hel- ena newspaper was also gone into at length The money was given to man named Greenfield, who, it appeared, was also cor respondent for some eastern papers. Mr.

Nolan said that after the Whiteside ex- posture tfty-two of the fifty-six papers in Montana were engaged In denouncing Mir Whiteside. and this condition of affairs being placed before MT. Da1y, he had yol- unteered to give this man $500
 MT. Nolan also detailed a conversation with Greenfield, in which he said the latter had told him that MT Clark had sought to change his (Greenfield's) account of the Whiteside episode, which he had resisted, and then Mir Clark had offered him em- ployment at $20 a day.
 Henry G. Rickerts clerk of the Montana state supreme court, denied the testimony given by Thomas F. Lyons to the effect that Mir aCmpbell had offered him s5.00O to make false statements before this com mittee.
 Recess was then taken.
 Marcus Daily, the millionaire miner of Montana, was the principal witness before the committee yesterday. MT. Daly confesed that he had contributed $20,000 $25,000 to the prosecution of this case, but asserted that he had not entered into any con- spiracy before Mr Clarks election to in- jure him.
 In conclusion he rendered his checks and check books for the past five years for the inspection of the committee. MT. Clark listened attentively to MT. Daly's testi- mony.
