STILL PROBING
 HILL ORE LEASE
Witness States That in His
 Opinion the United States Steel Corporation Paid Exorbitant Price in Or der to Control Ore Output
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPATcHI

NEW YORK, Jan. 29-TOday's hearing of the government suit to dissolve the United States Stee4 corporation was occupied with fur ther testimony bearing on the ac quisition by the corporation of the Hill ore lease and the introduction of statistical evidence P H. Nelson the ore expert, who testified yester- day that in his opinion the steel corporation had paid an eXorbitant price for the lease for the purpose of keeping ore out of the hands of it's competitors. was cross examined by counsel for the trustees of the Hill lands, the defendants in the suit. The witness admitted that after the lease had been consummated even higher royalties were paid for ores by the independent interests than those stipulated in the lease, but de clared that this was due to the scarcity of ore in the district after the Hill lands had been removed from the market.
 He reiterated the statement that the acquisition of the Hill lands to- gether with the transportation fla cilities controlled by the corpora = tion gave it an average over it's com petitors.

With Election of Salisbury
 From Tennessee, Wilson
 Faction Has Majority of Two and Will Not Need Marshall's Vote in Ties
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

WASHINGTON. Jan. 29.-With the election today of William Salisbury United States Senator from Della ware. the democratic strength of the next Senate was swung from the precarious figure of AS. or exactly one half of the senate to the safer total of 49. majority of two Saulsbury's election, added to the victory recently secured in Tennessee assured the democratic party of absolute control of the senate after March f. The vote of Vice President Marshall would have been the decid- ing factor in any event but the ad- dition of another democratic vote to the column gives the party leaders what they believe to be a safe mar gin on the tariff and executive ac- tion.
 Contests still exist with the legis- latures of New Hampshire, West Nir- ginia and Illinois. with a total of four senators to be elected about whose political affiliations doubt now exists The victory in any one of these states so materially would strengthsn the democratic majority that the sen- ate would be removed completely from the element of uncertainty. The at titude of the progressives and the progressive republicans on tariff mat ters is yet unknown. but the margin of strength promised 10 the demo- crats makes it unnecessary, it is be- lieved, to count upon any combina ton with the progressives.
 Of the entire membership of 9t senators 63 will hold over beyond March 4 Of these. 32 are republicans and 31 democrats. The terms of 32 senators expire in March in addition to one vacancy from Illinois.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 29--The an nual National Hobo convention opened here today and the first session was de- voted almost entirely to speeches de- nunciatory of present day conditions generally. The proceedings were brought to sudden halt and rather noisy halt, which was silenced this af- ternoon by the appearance of Jesus Wesley, who said he was member of the "Brotherhood of Christ and he came from Heaven.
 He was garbed in long flowing robes with white hair dangling from his shoulders. The delegates were visibly uneasy, but they invited Wesley to speak. The addres was devoted chiefly to urging all to, join the brotherhood. President Jeff Davis issued proc lamation'' which said if the local news papers do not stop ridiculing the con- vention, he will exclude the press rep resentatives from the hall.

FAME AS HERO

This is the Sentiment of
 New York State Attorney Al General in Case of Gen - el'al Dan Sickles Whose
 Friends Offer Assistance
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1sPArcHl

ALBANY. Jan 29-The fame of General Dan Sickles as d soldier should not deter the efforts of New York state to collect $23,476 unac- counted for by the general as chair
 man of the New York monuments Commission. This is the view ad- vanced by Attorney General Carmody
 n letter today to Mrs Helen D Longstreet, of Gainesville, Ga. widow Of the Confederate general In a tel egram to Attorney General Carmody, Mrs. LOngstreet offered to raise $23, : 416 from the ragged and maimed followers of Lee. CarmOdy's letter says:
 Your sympathies and patriotic ex- pressions do justice to your heart. but do violence to the facts in this case. General Sickles is being prose- cuted by the State of New York for converting to his own use the sum Of ,476.
 This money came into his hands as chairman of the state monument com mission to be used, among other pur- poses. for the erection of monuments to mark the resting places on the field of Gettysburg of the brave sol diers who fell in defense of their country and to provide for a celebra- tion upon the field of Gettysburg in which those living might participate at the states expense in a fitting manner.
 'Sckles appropriated this amount to his own use. This he has not at tempted to justify or defend admit ting that he took the states money for private use without authority of law. an act which under our laws and under the laws of all civilized governments, means stealing. He was given his own time to repay this amount and that time was extended at his suggestion, without any desire to embarass him. and with a full ap- preciation of the claim he has upor this nation for his great service ren- dered during the rebellion.
 These services cannot be over es- tinted but even the fame of sol dier must not be a cloak to protec' the commission of crime and it is nothing less than misdirected sym pathy to undertake so to confuse tht question as to make an ordinary lprosecution for a crime seem like per | secution and to elevate as a martyr | a person who has confessed to dere- 1 fiction.

New Peace Negotiations.

LONDON. Jan. 29.-The peace nego- tiations which reached a deadlock over the cession of Adrianople on January (. were finally broken today by note which the plenipotentiarie of the Bal kan allies presented to Rechad Pasha. the head of the Turkish delegation. Notwithstanding this rupture. there are still Optimists in the diplomatic world who hope the resumption of war may yet be averted either through fresh proposals from Turkey reported to be including in the note she will deliver to the powers tomorrow. or through the fall of Adrianople before activities can be begun again at the Tchataja lines.
 The majority of the Balkan delegates refuse to admit the likelihood of either contingency. but cling to the belief that the life of the Young Turk government depends upon the resumption of war even though the allies are willing to postpone the conflict They are of the opinion that the present failure of di- plomacy at the worst, only is an in- terlude, however, for they will leave the four representatives in London to undertake a settlement anew.
 Rechard Pasha after receiving the note said:
 "The consequences may be of the gravest nature. but the responsibility lies not alone with the allies, but with the powers, who encouraged the Balkan states. and have shown no fairness toward Turkey. although before war had been proclaimed solemnly a principle of the unchang- ability of the status quO.'
 The plan of the allied governments, so far as the plenipotentiaries are concerned. is to concentrate force at Adrianople, immediately after the expiration of the prescribed four days, if the surrender of that fort ress does not occur in the meantime. They believe that a few days bom- bardn1ent by the big siege batteries which now surround Adrianople, will bring about equalization. Balkan re- presentatives declare that all reports that Russia will aid Bulgaria against Turkey are unfounded. The allies ex- pect the preliminary treaty of peace will be signed in Adrianople by the victorious Bulgarians and Serviar generals. and this will be embodied III treaty Wnlcn VIII De cOncluueO in London.
 ConstantinOple dispatch to the Post. sent by the way of Constanza says it is evident that something is happening at Tchatalja, as wounded men are arriving from there con- stantly.
