CLARK CASE.
His Corrupt Practices Now Being Un-
folded at Washington.

Washington, Jan. 13.-When the
senate committee on elections began
its session today in the Clark case.
NJ L. Hewitt, a miner who was in He
lena during the session of the legis-
lature in 1899, said that Charley Clark
had asked him to see Senator Myer
and offer him $1,000 for his vote for
Clark for senator. He accordingly
talked with Myers and testified that
that gentleman told him to say to
Clark, that If he was disposed to do so,
he could put $4,000 in the hands of
Whiteside to be paid him (Myers,) in
case he should vote for Clark. Hew-
lit said Clark's son stated that this
arrangement was satisfactory, and af-
terward told him the money for My
ers had been given to Whiteside.
Hewitt said he talked frequently
with Senator Clark. Once he had re-
monstrated with the senator concern.
ing Whiteside, as a well-known sup
porter of DAILY for senator be
lieved whiteside's fidelity was as
sured The witness had seen the SEN
ator a short time afaer the Whiteside
exposure, and asked him what he pro-
posed to do. The senator replied:
There, is only one thing to do, and
that is to make the people believe
that the DAILY gang furnished the
money and put up the conspiracy
against us"
On cross ss-examinateion, Hewitt said
he was republican and not especially
interested in any senatorial candi-
dates. He "just drifted into the con-
test. He pronounced as incorrect the
report of the testimony taken before
the grand jury, furnished by the mem
orialists, and he had not told all the
facts to the jury. Indeed, he never
told anything to any one until he had
given the details to Mr.. Birney, one
of tie attorneys for the memorialists
in Washington, few days since. The
witness declared emphatically that he
received nothing and no promise -oi
anything from the anti-Clark people
for his part in the proceeding. He
received no pay from Clark for his
| services.

THE BRITAlNS HARD HIT.
Some Truths Expounded by David
Starr Jordan, in California.

Oakland, Calf, Jan. 13.-David
Starr Jordan, president of Stanford
University, in an address declared that
his sympathies in the present war
were with the body of the British
people, who were, in his opinion, vic
TINS of a gigantic bunco game, and
had been led into the war by the pol
iticians and demagogues of Great
Britain.
'It seems to be the rule of English
warfare" he said, never to attack
anybody with clothes on ard never to
strike anybody unless he was down
and never hit above the belt, save
when that was the only vulnerable
point. In dealing with the Dutch,
Great Britain had broken every pledge
made them. Truth it is that the
British want their land and must have
it to make possible the scheme OF
Rhodes and Chamberlain for an united
British South Africa"

Targets Made Of Rroprietors of the
Denver Post Today.

Denver, Jan. 1S-H H. Tammen
and Frederick G. Bonfils proprietors Of
the Denver Post" were shot at noon
today in the Office of that newspaper
by w. w. Anderson, an attorney.
Both are severely wounded.
Anderson fired five shots. Two
are said to have wounded Bonfils. one
in the side, and. the other in the arm
Tammen was said to have the
shoulder, the bullet going into his
breast. Physicians, from hasty ex-
aminations, have declared the wounds
not dangerous, although closer exami-
nation might show them to be other
wise. Anderson was permitted to
leave the office unmolested. He was
later found in his Office by the police
and arrested.
It is understood the publishers and
lawyer quarreled over fee received
by Anderson as an attorney in the
Packer case.
