senate committee appointed to Investigate
the charges at attempts to bribe senators
to vote against,’ the tariff bill and the
charges of improper influences being used
in connection with the sugar schedule as
submitted to the senate today. so far as
concerns the attempted bribery of Sen
ators Bunion and Kyle, says:
“It appears from the testimony submit
ted that a certain Charles W. Buttz oi
North Dakota, but domiciled in Washing-
t‘on since December last, where he has
been engaged as a lobbyist and claim
agent, did, on or about the lat of April at
this year, at the house of Senator liunton
in Warrenton, Va, during the absence of
the senator, say to his son, Eppa liunton,
Jr., that he would pay him a contingent
fee of $25,000 if he would, by presenting ar-
guments as to the pending bill. induce his
father, Senator Hunton, to vote against it.
“This offer was declined at once and per-
emptorily by ‘Eppa liunton. Jr., as set
forth in his testimony, and the whole
matter was communicated by him to
his father. Senator Iiunton availed him-
self of the first opportunity to disclose
the matter to certain of his friends in the
senate, as appears in the testimony, and
was in no other way connected with the
transaction.
Kyle and "union Vindicatod.
"It is also established by the testimony
that the some ('lmries W. Iluttz during
the month of March last past approached
Senator Kyle of South Dakota with a prop-
osition that $14,000 would be paid to him
(Senator Kyle) if he would vote against
the pending tariff bill. The said Iiuttz
when making this proposition also stated
to Senator Kyle that the money was in the
hands or control of an agent of certain
bankers and capitalists of New York city
and that the money was in Washington.
“Senator Ky 'n's testimony is confirmed
by that of Mr. Duncan McP‘ariane, clerk
to the committee on education and labor.
“Senator Kyle is shown by the lusti-
mony to have communicated this inter»
view with iiuttz and thc ofi'cr mode to
him to set'crnl senators shorily after the
said interview took place.
“Your committee are abundantly justi-
fied in stating that the facts above recited
. have been established by tut-evidence, not
withstanding the denial on the part of
Charles W. Iluitz, and they refer the sen-
nte to the testimony in detail in support
of this finding. Your committee find nothr
ing from their investigation to luipcuch in
the least degree the honor or character of
Senniors ilunion and Kyle.
“There is no evidence to show tru- iruih
of Mr. liuttz‘s statement to Senator Kyle
and to Mr. Eppu liunion. .lr., that n syn.
dicntc of bankers and capitalists had raised
a sum of money to be used for the purpose
of defeating the pcndinuiariif bill. or that
there was no agent of such a syndicate in
Washington, or lillll nny mom-y was in
Washington for that purpose.
“iiuitz (lollies that he made any such
statement or that he had or has any
knowledge of the existence of such a syn
sentntivc of any one. lie further denies
that he has any money himself."

m .
Wasmsorou.’ May lid—The senate dil-
posed of five pages of the. tariff bill, oom-
pleting the consideration of the metal
schedule, except the paragriiphs relating
to led and zinc and their manufactures.
These paragraphs promised to precipitate
a struggle of some pretensions, and as they
were reached late in the afternoon it was
608de but to allow them to go over un-
til wmorrow. ,Mr. Hill of New York, it
is understood, will make the fight against
the duty on argontlferous lead ores and
pig lead.
The interesting features of the day were
the assets on the Hawaiian resolution,
Mr. Bl nohard'a speech and several sharp
encounters between Mr. Harris and Mr.
the tariff schedules.
A pleasant incident Occurred which re-
stored the entente oordiale between Mr.
Hear and Mr. Harris. For several days
their thrusts at each other had bow ai-
moat vicious." Thursday night just before
adjournment Mr. lloar referral to Mr.
Harris as the “drum major" of the Dem-
ocratio side. The passage at arms in the
early part of the day between the Mason.
chusetts and Tennessee senators was the
direct outgrowth of this remark. As Mr.
Platt finished Mr. Harris arose to move to
lay the Aldrich amendment on the table.
Mr. Hoar craved Mr. ilorrls' indulgence
for 80 seconds to reply to an observation
made by Mr. Blanchard. “In view of the
excessive courtesy of the senator from
Massachusetts,” said Mr. Harris, with im-
ing deference, "I yield 80 seconds to
m. H
flour and Harris Bury the Hatchet.
Mr. Hoar, who appreciated the cause of
Mr. Barris' temper, sold pleasantly that
since the senator was so kind he would ask
for an additional 80 seconds. '
Mr. Harris bowed an impressive assent.
Then Mr. lioar stretched his hand across
the breach. The observation he had made,
he said (referring to the appellation of
”drum major” applied to Mr. Harris), had
been meant no u jest. lie thought it was
so understoml. lie had not intended to be
seriously «lismspcctfnl to the senator from
Tcnnessce. lie hold that senator, he said,
in the highest respect, not only for his
kindness of heart, but his absolute integ-
rity and grout lniclicctuai capacity. in
his opinion the scnotor from ’l'cnnossco
was the prudent master of mrliumontnry
low in the senate, and he dcslrcd to hear
his icstlmony to his high and noble quali-
ties of mind and heart.
The Words of Mr. iloar evidently touch-
ed the veteran senator from ’i'cunossm.
The kindest relations had always existed

Saaama, May 26.--The proceedings
in the smith case, which is an appeal
against the heresy p legs at Cincin-
nati, reached the t order, and members
began to give expression to individual
views as the roll was called. Forty-live
three minute speeches ere made, and the
trend of opinion notw shown by the fact
that only 11 of them were in
talning the appeal.
Professor Smith replied in the hour giv-
en to him, and then the syn of Ohio, as

ntes. The calling oi.’ the roll of the eastern.

thentbegun and continued until adjourn-
men .
The most effective speech was that of
Elder Mellon lof Cincinnati,whosemain
contention that to support the appeal
was to approve the teachings of Dr. Briggs,
and he exclaimed, “Don’t moron the
Briggs verdict. ” He insisted that tho pres~
ent question was not a personal question,
but one of principles, because it was the
faith of the church that was on trial. Pro-
fessor Smith was declared to hold that the
decisions of the Portland and Washington
assemblies were wrong and should be re—
versed. lie was declared to have gone fur-
ther than Dr. Briggs in his views, hold-
ing not only that errors may have been
contained in the original Scriptures, but
even specifying them. He was also so-
cused of throwing discredit not only upon
the books of the Bible, but also upon the
author of the some, who, he claimed, was
alleged by the confession to be God him-
self. Iio closcd'hy saying that if Profess-
orSmlth will retract his errors the prcsby-
tery of Clnei ti will make haste to re-
ceivo him again into full connection.
