blcaker Kerr her rumarkcil that if
there was anything in connection with
him marking the iransction as confi
dential, the witness iicetl not regard it,
but he expected witness to tell the
truth.
Witness If Mr. Kerr r. an u ,111c lo
tell the truth I will do so. 1
The wiluetis then recited the lact
heretofore given, andj if we may judge
from the uewspaper report, with much
cfTecl. Gommenling on the evidence,
the New York 7W6r correspondent
says :
When the Sieaker desired that he
should keep back nothing of any trans
action lual bad taken place between
them 00 account of their confidential
character, Harney said with consid
erable show of excitement that he
should tell the whole truth. His story
was repeated in a very clear, connected
and intelligible manner, and though
he was very sharply cross-questioned by
Mr. Elliot, was not shaken 011 the main
points of his story.
The Tribune also has this lo say re
garding Mr. Kerr aud his formation
of the committee or the llou-te last
winter :
Tbe manner in which be constructed
some of tbe inioriaa committees of
the uottse aurriscd the couutry, and
hsd the selection been made by almost
any one else sonic of them certainly
would have given rise to the suggestion
that corrupt influences bad been at
work. InJcr Divan.
