The question of another and more
searching investigation of the scanda
lous charges made against Senators in
connection with sugar legislation, in ac
cordance with the resolution offered by
Senator Tillman, of S. C., nd followed
up by the most sensati onal Bpecch of the
session, is in a fair way of being decided
by circumstances rcgtffdlcsB of the per
sonal wishes of Senators. If information
is really desired, there was never abetter
time to get it. The grounds upon which
Mr. Ilavcmoycr, President of the 6Ugnr
tru st was given a verdict of "not guil
ty," by direction of the judge, show
plainly how a Senate Committee may
compel him to givo information or go to
jail, and the imprisonment of Chapman,
light as it is, will -make brokers think
Uico before tlioy refuse to answer ques
tions. Senator Aldrich's statement that
the only man who knew the contents of
the sugar schedule of the limit bill, ex
cepting the members of the sub-committee
that prepared it, before it was repor
ted to the Senate was Senator Jones, of
Nevada, seems to have made it incum
bent upon that gentlumnn to say whether
he furnished the information upon which
it has been alleged that other Senators
speculated in sugar stock, especially in
view of Mr. Aldricb having added that
no member of the sub-committee gave
any informatTBn to'anybody. Tho Com
mittee on contingent expenses, of which
Senator Jones, of Nevada, is chairman.
lias decided to report tile Tillman reso
lution to the Senate, with a recommenda
tion that it be adopted. If anybody else
but Sonalor Tillman had offered iliat res
olution there wouldn't be the slightest
doubt of its being adopted, and there
isn't much anyway. . If the resolution Is
adopted, Senator Tillman .will, in accor-.
dance with rule and precedent be made
Chairman of the (investigating commit
tee, and he will find; out something or
know the reason why.
When the head of a foreign nation
objects to receiving the man nominated
by .the President contlimeU by the Senate
to represent the U. S. as ambassador or
minister to that nation, he is merely ex
ercising a prerogative that is recognized
by all nations, and the minister has
nothiog left but to resign. Although it is
denied at the State Department that any
official notice of objection has been re
ceived by .this Jgovcrnment from Turkey,
it looks is though Hon, James B. Angell,
late President of the University of
Michigan,' would bo a victim of the
persona non grata hoodoo. It Is admitted
by officials that they have knowledge of
an attempt to poison the mind of the
Sultan against Mr. Angell on account of
his prominence as an advocate of the
Christian religion, but they say that
statements have been made which will
mitlafy the Sultan and that Mr. Angell
will, within two weeks, atart forTurkey
He may, but the impression In Wash;
ington is, that ho will not.
The Sonato -is making a fair rate of
progress with the tnriil bill, which is
being discussed and disposed of by para
graphs. Everything has so far been-quite
business like, but trouble is feared when
the wool and sugar schedules n-o reached
The Republicans are so fur 'following
their steering committee' solidly, and
upon neHrly eveiy paragraph they have
had vales from Populists and upon sev
eral from Democrats, and in nearly every
one yet passed upon tho duties have been
ruined. If the talk of Republican Sena
tors can be depended upon, the increased
beer tax and the duty upon tea wi'l both
go, and their places be taken in the bill
by an Internal revenue tax upon bank
checks, deeds, mortgages, etc.
Everybody lias settled down to tho con
viction Hint it will be impossible to get
the Cuban belligerency resolution before

do after Mr. Calhoun returns from Cuba
.-uiii makes his report. Eveiyboily con
nccli d with the administration, from the
'resident down ban grown reticent on
tliia subject. This reticence is said to be
caused by tli President' determination
not to allow the Binnix)l Minister to gel

tered on the steamer as II. W. Kimball.
Mr. Fishback, secretary of the commis
sion, accompanied ty Consul-General
Lee's son, went on board the steamer.be
fore she sailetl and held a brief consulta
tion with the messenger, and it is sup
posed that they delivered to him the re
port of the commission and other highly
important dispatches from Consul-General
Lee and Mr. Calhoun, who was
selected to investigate Dr. Ruiz's death,
to bo conveyed to the Slate Department
at Washington.
Dr. Jose Congosto, the Spanish consul
at Philadelphia, who represented the
Spanish government in the inquiry; is
also understood to have forwarded a
lorn; report to Senor DeLnine, the Span
ish minister at Washington.
Messrs. Calhoun, Fishback and Con-
goslo-will leave next Thursday for New
York direct.
The report by Mr. Calhoun will, it is
said, agree with the statement of Consul-
General Lee that Dr. Ruiz died from con
cussion cf the brain, the result of violence
after Bolitary confinement of more than
thirteen days, regardless of Ida treaty
rights.
Consul-Geucral Lee will shortly make
report od the liuiz case, and Mr. Cal
houn will make a turllirr report on other
mailers, such as the money question, the
slate of the insurrection, the condition
cf American interest and the general
suffei ing due to Captain-General Weyler's
style ot campaign.
Ueneral bees position is just what it
was in February last. He holds that
bnaui is responsible, since Ruiz died bi
chiisc be was deprived of bis treaty
rights. Tho exact facts as to how Dr.
Ruiz received the blow which kille'd him
lieuoral Lee ami Mr. Calhoun could not
learn, becauso half of the witnesses ex
amined by the commission were prisoners
and, it is believed, were afraid to testify
fully, iho remaining witnesses were the
jailors, who would not testify to crimi
nate themselves.
The relief of suffering Americans by
Consul-General Lee goes on daily. Sev
