Committee That Charges Against

Him Removed.

Him Removed.
Washington, May S.--The house conn
mittee on foreign affairs to-day lis
tened to a statement by former Consul
General at Canton, China, invade inre-
ply to the charges made against him
by Third Assistant Secretary of State
Peirce. Affidavits were presented by
Mr.. McWade to show the unreliable
and criminal character of those who
instigated the charges.
The hearing was behind closed doors.
At the outset Mr., McWade was given
ten minutes, but his time was extended
to nearly two hours, and when he had
concluded members Of the committee
congratulated him on the showing he
had made.
Mr.. McWade made charges of a SEN
sational nature against Assistant Sec
retary of State Peirce. 1t is consider
ed quite probable that congress may
take up the matter of these charges at
later day.
The only statement Of record made
by McWade is a letter addressed to
the committee. This letter was dated
April 26, 1905, by McWade and is as
follows:
For upwards of two years have
persistently and vainly endeavored to
learn from Herbert H. d. Peirce, third
assistant secretary Of state, the charges
which he had, I was informed, pre-
sented to President Roosevelt in his re-
port concerning me and my admins
tration of the United States consulate
generalship at Canton, China.
Again and again Senator Penrose
requested a hearing for me from the
president, who told him that was re-
moved, but not on account of any
charges, and that my head was off, and
that did not appear to know it.
"A little over six months ago H. H.
D. Pelrce assured me that I was re-
moved because the president wanted
my place and for no other reason.

dustry Of some anonymous person the
nature of the charges preferred against
me by H. H. D. Peirce and I solemn

PendletOn Mine i'm Russell Gulch Looking
Good-Senator Has New Shaft House.
GOOD VALUES FROM GOLD ROCK

A Cameron sinking pump No. . has
been installed in the Pendleton mine in
upper Russell district. The timbering
in this shaft was very bad, as it had not
been overhauled for about 30 years, and
timbermen have been busy the past
week retimbering the same. The mine
is down depth OF 140 feet and after the
timbering is finished it will be sunk
another lift, after which drifting west
will be commenced. A ladderway is also
being built. Most of the water encoun-
tered in this mine is surface pourings,
and this will be caught and led to the
ITO foot level where big dam will be
built. From there it will be pumped to
the surface. The shaft house that has
been in the course of construction for
the past month or two has been finished
and other improvements have been made
From now on this mine will be one of
our big producers as there are several
streaks of fine looking ore which run at
some very good figures. The mine is un-
der the direction of r. IL. Rickard, one
Gilpin's oldest mining men.
