The chair laid before the Senate a com

of representatives of the State of Ohio,:
I transmitting a transcript of the testii
mony taken by a committee 01 mat
house, and the report of tho same com-;
mittee, oq the subject of the charges
against the official integrity of certain
members of that house in connection
with the- ejection of Hon. Ilenry B.
Payne as United States'Senator.
: Mr. Payne at once i rose 'and said :
"Mr. Presideni, no formal : motion is
required, I believe, to send these papers
to the committee on privileges ana elec
tions. I - desire to bi considered as
niaking such motion if .lit is lequired,
and to couple with it a request that the
minority report may take the same
course, a cob v of which I submit. With
this formal disposition of the. matter I
am at present content but .desire to
make a short statement to accompany
the papers into the hands of the com
mittee."'! ; .. . '!.: J-.---

charging tpe' majority of the . commit
tee with unfairness in musing to notify
im of the testimony prejudiced to him
and in omittinsr to call On him for his
private papers, he having in advance
notified the chairman of the committee
thathe would be prepared to meet every
charge made against him. He entered
a most emphatic denial of the charges
and; invited a most exhaustive soru
tiny of ali i his acts and of his pri
vate correspondence. The whole thing,
he said, was ah attempt to circulate
baseless gossip and scandal, everything
substantial in the way of charges having
been discredited and disproved by tes
timony. He was entirely willing to
leave the matter with the; committee on
privileges and elections in the judg
ment of the Senate, to which committee

1886, the duties of the clerk -of the late
cdurt eonfmissidners of Alabama claims.

The House was then kept Amused for

Mr. Cram, of Xexas, reported from

again took up the river and harbor bill.
The paragraph acceptmg from; the 8ute
ofrOhw the Muskingum river, improve-
ment, gave rise to much opposition and
ef' vr:naeX :itZ?T.
it t tswm
the bill. In npportiiif thia
motion, M. Hewitt, of New York , said
the bill contained several propositions
by which the United 8tates went .into
different States, and either by purchase,
condemnation or gift, became the owner
of works within thote States. Hehad
dissented from the paragraph for the
condemnation of works of the Monon-
fahela navigation oonrpan because he
ad felt that it was a dangesous
innovation. He would have said
that it was an unconstitutional step,
but he was aware Mali , barriers
erected by the constitution had been
long since swept jiway. The govern
ment was becoming' a dumping-ground
of all the unprofitable enterprises of the:
several States. Th States were trying
to shift the cost of maintenance of focal
enterpises to the broad shoulders of the
people of the country. He was opposed
to such a proposition.' The debate took
a rather miscellaneous turn, embracing
national, taxation; the labor question;
the business depression, and how te
remedy it ; the extravagance of the
Democratic party ; the centralizing ten
dency of the government ;. the burden
of great corporations ; the Oklahoma
question, and the silver question.
Finally a motion to strike out was loft,
the committee rose; and at 6.45 the
House adjourned.

o'clock the mob started out of town on
Boonville street, with Graham in their
midst. It was thought the mob would
take Graham to the Mallory farm and
hang him and then throw his body into
the well where his wife's body was;
found, but the leaders of jthe party art-:

was made on the jail. Sheriff Donnell j
said: "1 have heard so much talk of
mobs that I gave up the idea of one.
The first thing I. knew was about 1
olclock, when masked men, broke into
my room, and said, "we are friends,
don't be scared;" overpowered me and
then requested the keys of Mrs. Don
nell. Getting tired of refusal, the
leader said, ' ' well boys, bring the tools. ' '
One of the party, who evidently knew
where they were, walked straight to a
drawer where the keys were ; kept and
forced it open. - I knew nothing of how

were cool and collected. ' When thev

can hang me, but you - can't scare
me." They tied his hands be
hind him and -marched him through
the hall, with a rope around his neckv
He was as white as a sheet, but other

variously estimated at from 150 to 400.
Graham made no entreaties for them to
spare him but went to his death coolly
and died apparently without a struggle.
The mob dispersed in all directions.

also that France did not sign the ulti

ordering Greece to disarm; that she has

cessions in return for disarming. Other
dispatches say that ureece aisarmea ne-

7.30 o'clock this morning, and at 10 a.
m. it was reported that fifty cars were
running from 65th street, ten on 15th

fast falling rain this morning damped
the ardor of the strikers. Their pickets
in many cases deserted their posts. It has

after which none of the strikers will be
taken back under any circumstances. It
has also been decided to run night cars,
starting tomorrow night. Police in
spector Steers said if the company ran
night' cars the police would do their best

From the Jersey City Journal.
At a recent theatrical entertainment a
young lady with a three-story hat sat
immediately in front of a newspaper,
man. Noticing that her headgear ob
structed the Journalist's view of the
Btage she took it off and placed it in her
lap. The ucwapaper man Was profuse !
in his thanks. The next day he caught
a severe cold, contracted pneumonia and
died a week later. When bis will was
read it was discovered that he had added
a codicil, giving the young lady who sat
in front of him in the theatre $2,047,
468. Even a United States Senator has troubles.

From malaria? In city and suburb, village and

tbe bottom lnnda of tbe South, in regions teem
ing with the fruits of husbandry, in trackless

ists. But travelers, sojourners, bid settlers, all
who are liable to it, can uproot the dis
eases to which it gives birth, or prevent
them, with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Chills
and fever, bilious remittent, dumb ague and
ague cake, are each and . all overcome by this
potent and searching specific, i It is not less
efficacious for liver complaint, dyspepsia and
costiveness, ailments not unfrequently compli
cated with malarial attacks. 1 Rheumatism,
kidney and bladder troubles, sad a want of
vital strength, are also remediable by its per
sbitent use. Appetite and sleep, always serious
ly impaired by the nervous disturbances and
biliousness consequent upon fever and ague,
are invariably restored by the Bitters.

the question.
