GOVERNORS RECOMMENDATIONS
Concerning Adjustment Of the Troubles
Between Delaware and
Nem lerneY.

Dover. Feb. After pending for
years In the United States Supreme
Court, the case of the State of New
Jersey VS.. the State Of Delaware may
reach an amicable settlement
Governor HUM sent a message to
Senate and House yesterday relative TO
the suit.
The act in question was passed March
%, 1871, and the jurisdiction Is that
claimed by the State OF Delaware over
the waters OF the Delaware river to low
water mark on the New Jersey shore,
within the limits Of the twelve mile cir
Gle, having its centre at the Court House
lat New Castle The enforcement OF
the act by the arrest of citizens of New
Jersey engaged i'm fishing in that pOr-
tion of the river lying within the twelve
mile circle. was promptly opposed by
the authorities OF that State with q
claim of jurisdiction over said river
east of the middle line and of the legal
right of her citizens to fish on the New
Jersey shore of the river without a
license of Delaware. either within or
without the said circle. Both States
named commissioners to settle the dis
pute, but they failed to reach a salts
factory basis of settlement. and in 1875
the Delaware Legislature decided that
Delaware's commissioners having fully
performed their duties and reported the
results of their labors were relieved of
further duty. The license laws, which
had been suspended. were continued in
force, and on March IS. 1877. New
jersey fled a bill in equity in tho Su-
prame Court Of the United States TO re-
strain the State of Delaware from the
exercise of its Jurisdiction. Delaware
went into the defense Of the suit and

George Il. Bates were appointed coun-

when he became Secretary of state Of
the United States; Mr.. Gray has since
become United States Circuit Judge

ALL THE BLAME
PUT ON D0BLIN
House Naval Committee
Urges His Indictment on
Bribery Charge
.QUIGG AND LESSLER INDICATED

Washington, Feb. THE house com.
mittee on naval affairs yesterday re-
ported to the house its findings in the
matter of the investigation of the Less
Ter bribery charges. A minority report,
signed by Representatives Kitchin
(Dem), of North Carolina; Vandiver
(Dem). of Missouri, and Roberts
(Rep)., of Massachusetts, also was sub
mitted
The full committee upon convening
yesterday took up the report submit
ted by the subcommittee, Of which
Mr.. Foss was chairman, which had
been charged with the preparation OF
findings for the committee. Two
hours were given to its consideration.
during which time there was much dis
cussion as to the form different find
ings should take.
There was desire on the part of some
of the members to make the findings
more sweeping in some respects. The
majority report, after reciting the res
olution directing the naval affairs COM
mittee to investigate the charges OF
bribery. and reviewing the evidence
heard, submitted the following find
ings:
"That the charge made by Mr.. Less
Ter that an attempt had been made to
corruptly influence his action respect
ing proposed legislation is sustained
/ by the evidence; such attempt, in the
opinion of the committee, having been
made by one Philip Doblin, on his own
initiative and responsibility, with the
idea of making money for himself if
he should find Mr.. Lessler corruptly
approachable.
THAT there Is no evidence to sustain
the charge of an attempt by Lemuel f.
Quigg and the Holland Submarine Boat
Company or any of its agents to cor
ruptly influence a member Of the COM
mittee on naval affairs respecting pro-
posed legislation pending before said
committee and the house.
IN view of the foregoing, we recon-
mend that the clerk of the committee
be directed to certify to the attorney
general of the United States a copy of
the testimony taken at the hearing,
with request that ne take such action
as the law and the facts warrant"
The minority report states the cir
oumstance Of the resulting investiga
tion and submits the conclusion of the
minority, the first of which is as fol
lows
"That the charge that an attempt
was made to corruptly influence a
momber Of the committee on naval az
fairs respecting proposed legislation
pending before the house is not sus
tained"
The minority differs with the ma
iority only in its first conclusion. In
other respects tho conclusions are iden
tical.

cided against the proposition to au
