Representative Fines Testimony.

Washington, Jan. 24.-The, senate
committee on privileges and elections
adjourned over t-stSl Mon
day in its Investigations Of The
charges against Senator CErk. of
Montana. Witnesses for the lIrosecu
tion were absent and Senator Fau'k-
ner, for the defense, indicated o de-
sire that none of those who are to be
called as witnesses on that side
should testify until the prosecution
had completed its case4 While no
positive statement was made to this
effect, the committee indicated quite
positively that the Clark witnesses
might be called by the prosecution
after Monday. The principal wit
nesses yesterday were Mr. Ector, re-
called, and State Representative Fine.
The latter, through a friend of Mr..
Clark's, gave testimony from which
the prosecution evidently derived
much satisfaction. He said that he
had received about $1,000 from Mr..
Clark since the adjournment of the
Legislature in working up testimony
looking to the disbarment of Senator
Clark's namesake, State Senator
Clark, of Madison county, Mont, who
voted in opposition to the senator.

gave a hearing upon the subject of
disposition OF the public lands Of Ha-

sion to sharply criticise the present
