On the lines opposite the entry was one which gave the cause of the suit. j It was for $290 for wine sold and de livered by ;Kate Riley, the notorious Long worth street landlady.

When asked what he wanted with it he . said that Senator Carlisle had , not acted square with him in certain money matters and that he was looking the mat- ! ter iip for this reason. v I .Lane actca in a very mysterious man ner, and it is thought that his explana tion as to why he wanted the informa tion is a blind. The general impression i that he is a secret agent of some per son or persons who are, working against the interests of Mr. Carlisle, and that the transcript Lanej secured will be on its way to Wash:ngton soon. ' The lower entry on the docket says that the suit ; waa dismissed at the cost of plaintiff. : a Conspiracy against Carlisle. j Kx-County Prosecutor William H. ; Pugh.'i who has been for years anintimate friend of John G. Carlisle, and who is s brother of ex-United States . Senatoi George H. Pugh, was seen and the mat ter mentioned to him. "Let me tell i you." he said, "there's not . a word of truth in it. I know what voumean. This business has been brewing for some i ..iuw, xiv ? u a ojii uug, ; j j i "You can say that there is a base con spiracy working to keep Carlisle but of jtae cabinet and that there will be an ar ! rest forj criminal libel to follow within $ I few days.

Further, than this Mr. Pugh could not De induced to talk at present. N CARLISLE t DENIES THE 8TORT. Senator Carlisle was . telegraphed particulars of the Lane 'episode, and followingjmswer came from him: I the the i "Washington, D.
