CORRUPTION CHARGED
IN THE SALE OF THE DAN
ISH WEST INDIES.
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
liz the Sum Claimed to Have
Been Grated.

WASHINGTON March 3.-Genuine
sensation was caused in the house by
the presentation by Richardson, DEM
ocratic leader. OF charges alleging the
corrupt use of a fund OF $4,000 in
connection with the sale Of the Dan
ism West Indies Charges were con-
tained in the alleged secret report Of
Captain Walter Christmas to the DAN
ish government. which declared that
he had employed corrupt means to
bring negotiations for the sale OF the
islands to a consummation. The re-
port mentioned the names of Abner
Mckinley and his partner, Colonel
Brown, C. w. Knox, who was de-
scribed as the intimate friend Of
Senator Hanna" Richard P. Evans,
who was said to have sent Gardner
and his friends in the house." and two
press associations, names Of which
were not given as having been inter-
ested in the matter.
Charges against members of congress
were not specific Upon the basis Of
this report. Richardson asked the
adoption of resolution for the ap-
pointment of an investigating SOM
mittee OF seven.
Great excitement attended the whole
proceeding. Richardson's motion was
adoptd and the speaker appointed the
following committee: Dalzell tRep,l,
OF Pennsylvania; Hit (Rep.l, of Illi-

Hogiand was left where he lay and
young Waud was brought to Asoria

him when he was shot. Or. Fulton

the bullet from young waud's throat

Coroner Pohl viii go to westport on

inquest over the body of Hogland and

The only thing recently stated by
Hogland which is not clearly UNDER

master when he notified him to appear
at Astoria today, He is reported to
have said: IAN right. The grass is
growing green, and III be there"
What he meant by this is not known,
but some of the people of Westport
think the statement possibly referred
to the intention of the suicide at the
time.

Congress to Authorize Appoint
ment.of United States
Minister.
OFFICE SEEKERS ABUNDANT
Naval Station to be Located ut
Guantanamo. Only u
COaling Station at
Havana.

--wAsHfNGTON, March 27.-It is the
present understanding that Gonzales
de Quesada. formerly Cuban commits
sIoner, win be the first minister from
Cuba to the United States.
The United States diplomatic repre-
sentative to Cuba viii be full fedg-
ed minister and not commissioner.
President Roosevelt is about 10 send
a message to congress to secure legis-
lative authority for the appointment Of
such minister as well as for the half
dozen United States consuIs who must
be appointed. There are no less than
200 applications on file for these con-
sulates already. and the sending Of the
presidents message on the subject Is
expected to vastly increase this NUM-
ber. The president has not yet indi-
Gated the person he win name as Unit
ed States minister to Cuba, but in
view of the fact that this official must
negotiate the treaties with the new
republic. 1t is expected that the choice
win fall upon some one not altogether
lacking in diplomatic experience. The
choice. will certainly mot fail ON an
army or naval officer in the present
state of mind OF the executive. The
salary attached to the ofice will, it Is
thought, be in the neighborhood Of
$500 per annum.
Preliminary steps have already been
taken by the United States govern
ment to locate the naval and coaling
stations which, by the terms Of the
Platt amendment. are to be ceded by
treaty to the United States. Rear
Admiral Brandford. chief Of the equip
ment bureau of the navy department,
has given special attention to this
subject and for the last two weeks has
been cruising in West Indian waters,
particularly directing his attention to
Cuba ports. He has arrived at Gua--
tanamo, and it is believed that here
will be located the principal, if not the
only United States naval station in
Cuba. The harbor is capable of easy
defense against an enemy and the
health conditions are better than in
Santiago. There is also more anchor
age room.
The Cubans do not want naval sta
ton at Havana proper, and the Unit
ed States government is willing to de-
fer to the Cuban national pride in this
matter. But one of the coaling sta
tions without defenses and so entire
ly different from naval station-will
be located at Havana Harbor, probab-
ly just across the bay from Havana

TEMPORARY INSANITY
Is the Only Theory That Has
Been Suggested as the
Cause of the Terrible
Tragedy.

Emory Hogiand a section boss at
Wcstpotr. ?S males east OF Astoria,
fired three pistol shots last evening.
and he now Hes corpse at the Gdl-
son boarding house at westport. and
Hen waud is at 81. Mary's hospital In
this city.
The shooting In entirely unaceounted
for. as Hogland was sober and appar-
emily In his right mind. and the man
whom he shot was his friend.
II appears chat HcglaEd came to AS
toria last saturday and got drunk;
that he returned 10 westport and con-
tInued drunk Sunday. but that Monday
he sobered up and performed his work
as usual on hia section Of the Astoria
& Columbia River Railroad up to last
night. The only thing that has occur
red 10 lcad Hogland TO do anything
out of the ordinary was yesterday
when It is stated that the roadmaster
Of the railroad for which he was
working notified Hogland to appear in
Astoria today before the proper OFF,
oials and give an explanation Of his
late spree, This occurred in the after
noon yesterday. but when Hcgland re-
turned from his work last eevning it
did not appear to bother him. He told
the persons who run the boarding
house not to put up his dinner, as was
the custom, for today. but this IS ex-
plained In the fact that he intended
coming TO Astoria. and he had also
been in the habit of coming home for
his dinner when he was working near
Westport.
Several companions boarded with
him at the Gibson house and on last
evening they took supper together and
Hogland appeared to be as jovial as
usual He has frequently kept to him
self in his room, but has always been
sociahle and agreeable when approach
ed by his friends. After supper last
evening Ben Waud and G, w. Adams,
who boarded at the same place with
Hogland, called at his room, which Is
in the second story of the boarding
house and next TO their room, and had
pleasant conversation with him.
Then they went down stairs and left
him In the room. Another friend by
the name of Mills called on Hogland
and was with him until just before the
shooting occurred. When he left the
room about I o'clock Hogland was APP
parently arranging his accounts and
was jovial, &
About 7:So p. m, waud and Adams
started up stairs to their room. The
stairway and hall was dark and they
were cropping their way along but
talking and laughing good naturedly
until they were almost opposite Hog
lands room. At this stage Hogland
appeared In his door and said some-
thing and Immediately fired. The ball
from his revolver, q SS-calibre weapon,
struck Ben waud just below the nose
and after passing through the upper
lip turned downward. Waud lodged to
the floor and crawled into a room on
the opposite side of the hall. In the
meantime Hogland fired again, this
