I'ulliii!? feller Now .
! I'ontiii M: from lirst
! ve-tigation it always stops before the
; discovery. The suar scandal ha
, not proved, then. for, an exception
to the rule. T'h" central fact in the
investigation is the specific charge.
S made by a reputable newspaper cr
! respondent, that the sugar schedule in
j the pending tariff bill wa pnpand
1 in the interest of the sugar trust and
urgently advocated its adoption bv
the democratic members of the Sen
ate Finance (Joinniitt.ee. It was
urged upon the ground that sugar
trust contributed a large sum of
money to the democratic campaign
fund in H'.ri. He is quoted by
Edwards, the New York correspond
ent of the Philadelphia Press, assay
ing: ' (ienllemen, there is omp tiling that I iitu
iiouii'l to say to you us earne-lly anil iiijj.re.-i-sivt-ly
us J an ilo it, ami I speak to yon .is a
1 lemucral to I lemoi rats. No party or the
representative of no party can afl'or l to ig
nore lioiiiirahlt- obligation- I want to -ay
to yon that there seems to he (lanp-r that
this is oin to he ilone. Gentlemen associ
ate.l with the siiar rrtiniiiL' interests (I may
toll vuii what, perhaps, yon do not knowi
si i hs rihi.il to the campaign fuml of the 1 e
mocrauc party in I a very lartie sum of
money. They contrihuteil several humlm!
thuu.-atnl dollars and at a time w hen money
whs urgently needed. I toil yon that it
would he wronj;, it would he infamous, after
having accepted that important oortribu
tion, 'ivcu at a time when it was impera
tively needed, fur the democratic party now
to turn around and strike down the men
whoaveit. It must not ho done. I trust
that you will prepare un amendment tn the
hill which will he reasonable and in some
measure satisfactory to these interests.''
The ostensible purpose of the in
vestigation is to ascertain what truth
there is in the statement. Edwards
appeared before the committee, told
all lie knew about it, all he heard
about it, but declined to disclose the
source of his information. It was
given to him in confidence, and, if
false, its refutation could easily be
established. What better witness
than Carlisle himaelf? What better
testimony than Carlisle's to refute
the disgraceful charge? The commit
tee submits a report recommending
the criminal prosecution of Edwards
upon the ground hat he refuses to
answer an impertinent and wholly
useless question. The object is re
venge. What the Democrats want
is to know where the leak is. Who
unmasked the conspirators ? The
object, they know, was to defeat the
tariff bill, but who is the Democratic
Iscariot. They think they know.
They suspect Hill, and since his op
position to the tariff bill they hate
and damn him. If the informant is
Hill the democratic leaders would
willingly accept the defeat of the
tariff, if by doing so, the fact could
be established. That is now the
dominating idea of the investigation.
All the material witnesses Whit
ney, llownieyer, and Brice's New
York brokeis have lied the coun
try. Carlisle is the only witness
available, and he doesn't seem to be
in a swearing humor. Possibly, in
time, Edwards may be sent to jail
for his contumacy, but it will not
satisfy the indignation of the peo
ple. Every pound of eight cents
sugar the fanner buys under the
sugar trust tariff bill will remind
him of his obligations to the Demo
cratic party. They will painfully
realize that forty-seven million dol
lars is a big price to pay for demo
cratic protective tariff legislation.
They will be fighting mad when
they realize that the sugar trust has
made fifty million dollars on its half
million investment in Cleveland's
election. The remedy is at the bal
lot box. Smash the machine and
fight for an honest ballot

Warirj?. Th' civil offu-ers of the law

iiiorn on duty at the barracks, and

and trouble. The formal inquest was

Hut death, said the doetor. was caused
by the hin'Ie htab. Uriven downward
vith Favajc force, a sharp fytinte.i
tvv-o-edifu'l, btraiht-bladed knife had
pierced the heart, and all was over in
an instant. One other wound there
was, a hlasbinj,' out across the htomach,
which had let a lare amount of blMxl,
but miht rwibly riot havi been mor
tal. What part the deceased had taken
in the htrtiifjrle could only be conjec
tured. A little five-chambered revolver
which he habitually carried was found
on the floor close at hand. Twocharea
had been recently tired, for th barrel
as black with powder; but no one
id heard a shot.
The barlu-epf.r at the Pelican could
throw but little lifcht on the matter.
The storm had broken, he said, with
sudden fury. The rain dashed in
torrents against his western front, and
threatened to beat in the windows. He
called to two men who happened to be
seated at a table to assist him, and was
busy trying to fet up the shutters,
when Lieut. Doyle joined them and
rendered timely aid. He had frequently
Keen Doyle during the previous month.
Mrs. Doyle lived in the old Lemaitre
house in the block below, and he of ten
supplied them with whisky. They
drank nothing but whisky. As they
ran in the side door they were surprised
to see the lights of a carriage standing
at the edge of the banquette, and the
driver begged for shelter for his team,
saying some gentlemen had gone in
side. The barkeeper opened a gate, '
and the driver put his horses under a
shed in a paved court in the rear, then !
came in for a drink. Meant ime, said
t he barkeeper, whose name was j
Ilonelli, three jrontlemcn who were
laughing over their escape from the
storm luuKordered wine and gone into
a private room, Doyle with them. The
only one he knew was M. Lascclles,
though he had seen one of the others
frequently as he rode by, and knew him
to be an oflicer before Mr. Doyle
slapped him on the back and hailed
him as "Sammy, old buck!" or some
thing like that. Mr. Doyle had been
drinking, and the gentleman whispered
to him not to intrude just then, and
evidently wanted to get rid of him, but
M. Lascclles, who had ordered the
"UK READY TO TEIX
wine, demanded to be introduced, and
would take no denial, and icvited Mr.
Doyle to join them, nnd ordered more
wine. And then Uonelli saw that
Lascelles himself was excited by drink
the first time he had ever noticed it
in the year he had knowu him. The
third gentleman he had never seen be
fore, and could only say he was dark
and sallow and did not talk, except to
urge the driver to make haste, they
must go on; but he spoke in a low
tone with Mr. Lascelles as they went to
the room, and presently the rain
seemed to let up a little, though it
blew hard, and the driver went out
and Vjoked around and then returned
to theprivate room where the gentle
men were having their wine, and there
was some angry talk, aon! he came out
in a few minutes, very mad; uaid he
wouldn't be hired to drive that party
any farther, or any other party, for
that matter; that no carriage could go
down the levee; and then he got out
his team and drove back to town; and
then Ronelli could hear sounds of al
tercation in the room, and Mr. Doyle's
voice, very angry, and the strange gen
tleman came out, and one of the men
who'd been waiting said he had a cab,
if that would answer, and he'd fetch it
right off, and by the time he got back
it was raining hard again, and he took
his cab in under the shed where the
carriage had been, and a couple of sol
diers from the barracks then came in,
wet and cold, and begged for a drink,
and Bonelli knew one of them, called
Dawson, and trusted him, as he often
had done before. When Dawson heard
Lieut. Doyle's drunken voice he said
there 'd be trouble getting him home,
and he'd better fetch Mrs. Doyle, and
while he was gone Lascelles came out,
excited, and threw down a twenty
dollar bill and ordered more Krug and
some brandy, and there was still loud
talk, and when Bonelli carried in the
bottles Toyle was sitting back in a
chair, held down by the other officer,
who was laughing at him, but, never
theless, had a knife in hand a long,
6harp, two-edged knife and Doyle
was calling him names, and was very
drunk, and soon after they all went
out into the rear court, and Doyle made
more noise, and the cab drove away
around the corner, going down the
levee through the pouring rain, one
man on the box with the driver. That
was the last he saw. Then Mrs. Doyle
came in mad, and demanded her hus
band, and they found him reeling
about the dark court, swearing and
muttering, and Dawson and she took
him off between them. This must
have been before eleven o'clock; and
that was absolutely all he knew.
Then Mr. Allerton had told his story
again, without throwing the faintest
light on the proceedings, and the .hack
driver was found, and frankly and
fully told his: that Lascelles and an
other gentleman hired him about eight
o'clock to drive them down to the for
mer's plae, which they said was seyeN
a! squares above the barracks. Be
caid tnat he would haye to charge
them eight dollars such a night any
where below the old cotton-press,
where the pavement ended. But then
they had delaj-ed starting nearly an

while before the war, and lived at
home all through, but business lan
guished then, they had to contribute
much, and his younger brother, M.
Philippe, had cost him a gr 'it deal.
Philippe was an otlicer in th zouaves
raised in among the Trench Cre
oles, and marched with them to Co
lumbus, and was wounded and came
home to be nursed, and Eaiilie took
care of him for weeks and mouths, and
then he went back to the war and
fought bravely, and was shot again
and brought home, and this time M.
Lacelles did not want to have him
down at the house; he said it cost too
much to get the doctors down there;
so he came under Madame's root, and
she was very fond of the boy, and
Emilie would come sometimes and play
and sing for him. When the war was
over M. Lascclles gave him money to go
to Mexico with Maximilian, and when
the French were recalled many de
serted and came over to New Orleans,
and M. Lascclles was making very lit

property, and he borrowed money of
her to help, as he said, Philippe again,
who came to isit him, and he was
often worried by Philippe's letters
begging for money. Seven thousand
dollars now he owed her, and only last

was In Roy West to buy an interest in
some cigar business. M. Lascelles saul
if he could raise three thousand to
reach Philippe this week thry would
all make money, but Einilie begged
her not to, she was afraid it would all

only about the money, and did not re

would Bee him and make proper
acknowledgment of his civility. He
seemed to think only of the money,
and said Philippe had written again
and must have help, and he was angry
at Emilie because she would not urge

went away in anger, saying he had
business to detain him in town until

"Postage, newspapers, porterage
and other necessary expenses not in
fticluded in tne above items, $30.
00." These Senators left Washington
Dec. 24. 1892 and got back on Jan.
4th, 1S93. They had a pleasant
winter trip, of ten days, to Florida
and Cuba.
They rode on free passes till they
left our shores, and after that we paid
their way.
And you will observe that this ten
day pleasure trips cost you seven
teen hundred and fifty-eight dol
lars. ,
You will also observe that this
committee was partly Democratic and
partly Republican. You will also
observe that these Senators did not
arrive at Havana till Dec. 28h.
They left on Jan. 1. Thus they
were at the hotel three days. During
that time they were spent S39S.05 of
your money !
If that hotel bill were itemized you
would learn that it included the fin
est w ines that money could buy. The
fact that each of of these Senators
cost you nearly eighty dollars for a
three day's stay at a hotel is proof
positive5 of the recklessness and
shamef ulness with which pulic mon
ey is spent.
Aud to thn of a Senator drawing
$5,000 per yeat- for eis month's work
(during which time he never makes
an average of four hours per day) and
then charging you with the cigars he
smokes, the liquor he drinks and the
newspapers he reads!
The money thus spent in yiolation
of law is your money. You dug it
out of the ground. You slaved for
it behind the counter. You toiled
for it in the mill.

incredible. j
In the report ot IH'.'l I find !
on pace 128 that that vou paid;
$5,000 for expenses of

These committees of the S. n
ate iu 1S91 cost you a total of $2S,
(100.
In 1892, they cost you upwards of j
;r.,oio.
In lb9.i marly $50,000 i
In the House, thvse outlays are not ;
so large, but they are twice as large as f
need te.
Some of the special committee
work and expanse is legitimate aud
legal, but at lest three fourths of
it is a wicked consumption of
public money to gratify the
pleasures of your individual Sen
ators. This travelling committee business
is almost as much of a joke at Wash
ington as the Maltby House is No
body looks for Congress to adjourn,
either winter or summer, without
mapping out these pleasure trips for
weary statesmen who, having
grown tired of Washington bar
rooms, luLches, theatres an Pol
lards, desires to recreate amid freeher
scenes.
At your expense.
But the "form" of public labor is
kept up. A ways. Therefore they
invariably carry along a Secretary
or Clerk (at your expense) and this
Secretary or Clerk writes out a for
mal report of the "investigations"
made by our Senators. This report
is presented in the Senate by some
owl-like statesman, and it is straight
way ordered to be printed.
It is printed at your expense, stuc k
away in the vaults beneath the
capitul aud that is the last of
it.
In some cases, as I havesaH the-e
committees do good work, and th ir
reports are valuable; but 1 -tate onlv
the actual facts when I sav that, si's
a rule, there is no fraud more glar
ing and indefensible than that of
these special committees who take
vacation trips over land and sea at
your expense while vou are neither
able to have the vacation nor the
trip.

Such an organization under God's
providence will, I believe, be abso
lutely resistless for good. The plan
has worked with such success against
the people that I wish to see it work
ed for them. It is a wet blanket to
some of those who are seeking office
in the reform and a cold bath co
some of those seeking office by oppo
sition to it, but will be a God-send
to the people and free us from one
of the meanest and bitterest cam
paigns ever waged in the State. Shall
we "take the children's bread and
cast it unto dogs !" exclaims one of
the faithful who says he ha borne
the heat and burden of the day. I
answer that it is better to save tbe
reform with some "eleventh hour ser
vants" filling all the offices than to
lose the reform but save a few offi
ces for the most faithful. The nal
mother of the child before King Sol
omon prefern! that the false mother
should have it rather than that the
child should be destroyed. This act
of real effection saved the child.
Similar acts of effection and self-sacrifice
on the part of those who really
deserve the offices will, I believe, save
the reform and suggest to all the
worm a cure lor partisanry which

The money power could not rule
America if it were not for the blind

Shame upon us as a people that
our divisions aud party strife arid
our hunger for spoils and offices have
enabled a few corrupt millionairs to
tie us hand and foot and rule us
with a rod of iron !
