FAKE SCOTCH WHISKY.

Washington, Oct. 12.-Dr. Wiley,
chief chemist Of the Agricultural Dc
partment, who has been giving some
attention to the ingredients of Scotch
whisky from the scientific point Of
view, has had some information on
that subject recently from Consul Gen
eral II. Clay Evans. From the letters
Of Mr.. Evans It appears that they
make no secret about fake Scotch
whisky in London and advertise freely
what 1t can be made Of, not emitting
the ingredient OF creosote. Talking
on the subject today DR.. Wiley Is re-
ported as saying:
One Of the principal ingredients OF
this so-called Scotch whisky is creo'
sote. One pound Of 1t, according to
the label, will make 100 gallons OF
Scotch whisky II put into so much 81
lent spirit, as they call II in England
or pure alcohol. as we call It here. This
pure alcohol may be made from pota
toes. A small bottle Of essence OF
real Scotch whisky is then used for
coloring matter and your Scotch IL
ready for the market"
DIR. Wiley has received from Consul
General Evans some Of the essences
from which some Scotch whisky sold
in this country is made. These es
sences are on sale In the open market
In London.

DEMOCRATS WILL
INVESTIGATE
ELECTION METHODS

A meeting Of prominent Democrats
and very largely attended was held
last night at which II was decided to
set on loot through the Grand Jury
and otherwise an investigation into
the recent election. 1t is understood
that Judge Galbraith and Messrs. c.
W. Ashford and f., NJ. Watson have
been retained by the Democratic Cen
trail Committee to conduct this inves.
tigation.
The sentiment Of the Democrats as
expressed at the meeting In question
was not so much In favor Of criminal
prosecutions, at least on the evidence
so far obtained, but the main point
seemed to be. TO ascertain and deter.
mine the causes which led to an elec.
tion which they claim was conducted
IN violation of the essential features OF
the election law.
The Democratic Congressional Com.
mittee as well as the Democratic Ma
tional Committee are being communi.

TO CONFER ON EXCISE.
Republican Leaders at ALbany Han
Meet This Week.
Icy TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.

Albany Jan. 3O-It was reported at the Capt.
toll to-day that the question Of excise would be
considered at an important conference of Repub-
lcan leaders in this city next week. Until the
announcement in The Tribune this morning that
as a result Of the conference between Governor
Odel and Senator Plat some bill with excise
provisions would be passed. the prevailing belief
here had been that such measure would go
through this session. Now. Of course, that be-
lief is changed to conjecture as to the nature of
the proposed bill.
The NewcOmb bill is regarded, in its present
shape at least, as out of the running The
Jerome bill never had the slightest prospect of
passing, either At its present revival or at it's
original appearance. One thing is fairly certain,
and that is that no legislation will be passed
here that does not give the people of New-York,
both those against and those favoring Sunday
opening. chance to he counted for there is a
strong suspicion among legislators that the open
Sunday contingent would be beaten a count.
Every desires to know where New-York
City. stands on a question involving its own in
terests.
The referendum feature OF the Newcomb meas
has recommended it, but the Republican
leaders feel that excise measure should be a
party. not individual, measure. since it in
wolves many considerations, and Mr.. New
combs insistence or a precipitate introduction
of the bill before it had been carefully con-
sidered by those responsible for the party pol
icies is viewed fatal error. To pass any ex-
else measure it will be necessary TO get many
votes outside of New-Yorl1 City. Some measure
may be devised that viii both accomplish this
and he constitutional That Mr.. Newcomb has
not hit on the solution is the notion here
The serious consideration given the Newcomb
bill in New-Nork City oCCasiOned more or less
surprise Mt the State Capitol. where a foregone
conclusion Of its failure was entertained. The
result of the meeting in New-York City yester-
day is probably apparent in the rumor Of an eX-
else conference next week. Just where the Gov
ernor stands on the proposition is a matter OF
conjecture. To-day he reaffirmed his intention
Of not saying a single word about the subject.
. out Of the carefully considered plans laid before
the conference next week some excise measure
may be devised, but the party leaders will work
slowly and surely. 1t is evident TO any one who
talks with the State legislators here that there
exists strong notion that the majority Of New
York citizens do not want an open Sunday, any
way. and that measure like the Newcomb bill.
