Topeka, March IS The briber? inyestlgation now in propres here before a committee of the ntate senate, intendod originally to cover charges of corruption made by the Capital in connection with gamblers, developed a hugs ensation this tnorniap. and no one can now ear where It will end. The te?titnonr had no connection with the original charges, but was incidentally brought out. Representative McKlnery, populit, of Kansas City, Kas., eaore that he and Mr. Barnard, populist representative from the lame city, were both subject to corrupt offers made by Cyrus Lean 1, the noted Kansai republic in, if they wou d vote as he ens-zested. He testified that Leland of ferad him $0,000 to vote for V. II. Koasington, democrat, for U. S. senator, and that Burrard told him that Lelaod had offered $10,000 to vote for a republican candidate for state printer, and that Burgtrd hai also to d him about a proposition made to him (Burgard) by I.e. and to Tote for state printer. MtEiiery's Story. Mr. McEaary said: "I bad an offer of tnoney from Cyrus Leiand Saturday morning Feb. 25. to eell my vote for U. S. senator. Mr. Lillia of Kansas City, Kas., came to me and arranged for a meeting with Le land on that day. We met in Senator TVilliamson's room in the Keith block, lie said that the republicans were soing to elect a U. 5-. senator; that they had Cinety-two votes; that mine would be Ba:li-ient to elect, but that thev had in addition two others who were pleiieel. I ake1 him what he wanted me to do and for what. He said he understood it would be money and he named $1.000. I toll him I knw what ray vote mounted to, that I had been approached before on the enhject nn i that as I had voted f'r no candidate when Judge Martin was elected senator my vote was worth more for that reason. The amount final y' agreed on was S",O00. This fiirnre waa not stipulated, but I understood that if we could aaree on a stakeholder that would be the amount. The n an he wanted me V voto for was W. II. Iioasinton, a democrat. Hitch on the Stakeholder. 'Having asreed on the amount, the next question was the stakeholder. I told him I would act as stakeholder, and that was where the eerioua hitch came in. He wanted me to accept some ol the politicians or senators or some of the bauka. lie said he could not think of giving me the cash, because it would place him at my mercy. He wanted me to go with him to one of two banks, which he did not Dame. I suggested a crtihed check, but Le objected. "V:;en we talked abont the price I told him that a lam sum had been offered when Ady was the republican candidate. There had Leen $10.000 otlerwd for a einöle Tote. He denied this at first, but I knew better an i told him the trouble then as row abaui the etakeho der. I told him the monev was o ereJ Mr Harvard of "Wyandotte county in a cloak room three min n tea before Judge Martin was elected Senator and that the deal broke off at the last moment because they could not agree on a stakeholder. Burard insisted on a stakeholder Leland would not trust. Leland Admit It. 'Leland then admitted the offer and said Bcrgard should have kept his fool mouth hut. Then, when I insisted that my vote vaa worth aa much as Barnard's, he said the o er to Burzard was for state printer. At 10 o'clock Leland went away. That is the iaet time I saw him. Leland said that the republicans had agreed upon Rossington because all th republicans would cot vote for 1. U. Waggoner. Leland did not want to discuss the Burgard dea but practically admitted that be made an offer to him. We did not exactly aree on 55,000, but he laid perhaps if we could agree on a stakeholder we conld agree on the amount. He said repeatedly that he did not want to be placed at my mercy, and I did not Sropose to have it any other way. In the urzard de d be aad Leland had agreed on Barney White of Arntine as stakeholder, but Leland backed out because he was afraid that the relations between him and Luryard were such that ho could not trust him." Pulling for Waggoner. MfPdnery further testified that on the Tuesday eveninz before the Leland interview. Frank Strickland of Kansas City, Kans., approached him and told him that if he would vote for P. IX WasNtonsr for senator he could control the föderal patronawe of Wyandotte county. If he was not wanting office maybe something else could be obtained fur him and promia-d to see bim later. Witneess saw Strickland later at the Throop hotel and told Lim that he could yet what he wanted, but there were three republican members out of the city, and an e ection would not be attempted until their return. "He showed me ho futile it was to stay at the Dunsmore house. He said that the supreme judges had already held a meeting: amonz themselves and decided what the decision wcnldbeand that the Dunsmore house would lose the fja-ht. "Owing to the absence ot three republican f. .Strickland went to Kansas City, sayins he would be back Friday, but changed his ndnd and left the country to keep oat . of jail.

The following lettprs from correspondents will explain themselves. Theürstis printed anonymously because it waa seut as a private letter: Editor Skstixel Sir: Your leader in paper of 13ih is the 030 teion of this letter. I am not writing tor publiciton. but for private use, as noted. The interest I feel in party eaoeeae is, I think, sutficient apology when it is considered that 1 have, since 151(3, always voted the democratic ticket, was a metiii er ot the legislature in IH9 60 and Lave im at various tun? bent h uieuiber ol each house ot the general assembly.

Now on ti topic bn ler ditcuoaimi, i. e., the last legielatore, permit me to any in all caudor, I do not think the course of I it K Skstim 1. haa been either junt or wise. I was present at the legislature a part of two dys, sufficient to ol.srrve their geueral appearance, and have kept close watch of their proceedings and am snistied Hint aa a body it would compare favoratdy with other legislatures in the last tort? years. 7hey have no doubt made binnders and on sona (?) which others have not? You aay it fa led. to meet public expecta.iona. The wonder is. they have done no worse. The putdio expect more than esn be realized. Take a body of men selected from ah cUaes, irotu all parts of tiie state, moat of them without experience in public service, cive them only xiziy djys to org.iniz, then to edacnte iu ttie duties before tham; and sicainat they have casunlly h.oKed over the score or more of the puM;c nilitut'oiis of tlie state and have formed a alight perannal acquaintano time is ealled and they must quit aod go h(ne. If only skilled and experienced man wtrs selected we could reasonably expeot mora, hat s ich a prnetice ia ntt in accordance with the pirit of our instituti-jiii, or with the popu'ar will. It is common to designate experieiiead politicians aa ''old rat," r n.S'er, and be.onifiur to el qnes and combinntiona, and therefors the ieopie are wan ed to select daw ami unoorrupted material Ireeh lroai amonz them. Therefore. I ssy the last legi-latnre wss a fair averae. Ihey ware the people's choice and are entitled to a more fir and indulgent consideration than TllK t'ESTixn. nas given them. The members ran not be impugned and rebuked without at the same time rflectiog upon their cnsnttieuts. The peop e otteti co wrong and make mistakes in ptibiifl f olicy, as well as in selecting weak repreentatives, but newspapers do tue same thing and are to be watched the same as repreaeutativs. Mutual advice and counsel are good, but an assumption of being always right and an imperious air in giving oounaei is not wholesome advice. .Newspapers might iearn a vainabie lesson ly considering the recent cat's of the California legis.ature in removirg the capita!. 1 frankly aay that the course ol the bENTi.NEL to the legislature was no credit to the acate, ind bodea do good to the party. I have no personal interest in this matter. I have not tiiowu this letter to anyone and don't propose to, and it don't need a reply. It is strictly private. Yours retpeotfully. Anonym. From Another Standpoint. To inE Editor Sir: The editorial in Monday's issue which calls attention to our recent legislature in various respects, and wl.icli had an air of auggeaiivenesa relative to certain needed reforms, is very opportune. Assuming, though in fact knowing, that the legislature neglected voluntarily the enactment of laws width were deinan led and wouid be edifying to tn state, let us probe for the caue of such a vo.ition. A person should pay due regard to the iiiilueuce of the blauce of power and individuality so far ai they might intervene for the better ur wors when eAtimaiing an assembly that enacts laws un ter oartain rules.

Mr. Potter only engaged the but d ng for occupation in the closing days of the year it is believed that the tact of the paiace being inhabited bv the American minister ha t nothing to do with the outrage, but that the motive for causing the exp osi -n wus to gratify a desire for vengeance upon the proprietor of the palace, irrespective of whether tbe runidents of the palace were injured or not. This whs the motive euepected at the lime of the first explosion and there ia no reason to take a different view now. The TJ. b. minister cal.ed at tho foreign ofiife this afternoon and told JSignor Brin, minister of foreign affair, he was convinced that the explo.-ion was not intended to injure him or to aü ont the U. S. government. He expressed bis regret that such an emharrMg-ing incident had occurred and assured Signor Brin of the sympathy of the U. government and its will ngnegrt to let the atlair pass unnoticed. it: nor Brin thanked him for the visit and two hours later returned thecall to inform him that the Italian government felt the !eepest regret on account of the inconvenience caused to him and his family by the exp.oion.

DEATH OF M.JULES FERRY.

THE DISTINGUISHED FRENCH STATESMAN'S LIFE ENDED AT PARIS. For Tears One or the Foremost Figures of the Republic-IIis Death Caused by Heart Disease, the Result of nn Attempt ou Iiis Life by Anbertin in 1887. Paris, March 17. Jules Francois Cami le Ferry, the celebrated French statesman, is dead. M. Ferry's death was caused by heart disease. The aüeotion of the heart from which he eufiered was due to the e ects of a bullet striking a rib near tbe base of the heart at tbe time be was attacked by Aubertin, in 1887. He was seized with spasms early in the morning and, despite every effort made by the physicians, who -were hastily summoned, the convulsions continued to grow in violence until, at 6 o'clock in the evening, he expired in a terrib y severe spasm. Mme. Ferry said, in an interview with a reporter this evening: ''For the last two weeks M. Ferry had complained of diificulty iu breathing. He woo Id etart up in the night occasionally, gasping and choking. Several times he left the table and hurried to a window to get fresh air. His b eeii was mut h broken and his general health euiiered in ronsequence. lie ehowed an UDiisual lack of energy ami an aversion to beintf out except when Iii official duties called bim. I almost forced him to drive for a little while every pleasant morning and evening. "In the let lew day lie eeemd to recover somewhat his former energy and spirits, although his ditliulty in breathing was increasing and last mitht he was deteM ined to go to 'etiHtor Porrier's ball, but eventually I persuaded him to remain at home. 1 knew that an evening in a crowded ball-room would aggravate his trouble, and although he said that hi felt better than any time in the la t week, he admitted that his health needed careful ntireing, if he was not to be dieabled tor puldic duties. He went to bed at 10 o'clock. Before midnight he awoke with a chill. He tell as eep attain but rested tineiasiiy, final y awaking in another chill, more severe than the first on I sent for the doctor at once. lie arrived nt 1 o'clock and immediately gave M. Ferry injections of morphine and ether. He alho app ied cupping glas-es. This treatment was continued until 5 o'clock when M. Ferry felt relieved and sunk into a sound eleep. He tdeot well until !) o'clock. Other phys. cians were then aiimmoneil for a consultation. As M. Ferry winded to get up they did not insist upon his remaining iu bed, a though they forbade him to leave the bedroom and his ettidv which adjoins it. He was part y dressed at 9:00, and we helped him to his study arm chsir. He remained in it for an hour in a condition of such extreme prostration tnat he could talk but little. At 10:00 he began struggling for breath. He sprang from his chair with sudden energy and pared the room, ca ling for air and . co nplttining that he was euilucating. This sudden rally waa followed by another sinking turn. M. F-rrv lay in his chair with hi eyes cloned, to weak to tpeak to his brother Charles. Shortly aft-r noon he again ca led repeatedly for air, led hid hair an i wa k d rapidly up and down the room. This eilort was followed by another sinking turn. These alternations of rallying and sinking continued until 5 o'clock, when he raised lumped in hi- sat looked at his wife fixedly, exclaimed "Save me," and fell back exhausted. His struggle for breath became agonizing and the physicians injected morphine to relieve bun. Alter a few unintelligible words he fe 1 into a state of coma, which ended in death. He died in the arm chair in which for yt ars be bad done all h'n writing and reading. All the members of his faiuilv ' and Mme. Flomjuet were beside him to the iast. His last few minutes apparently were painless. The news of M. Ferry's death astounded tbe city. No event since .M. Gambetta'a death has ma !.; such a deep impression. Onlv thrte evenings ago be wan at the opera, and yesterday be presided over the senate. Hundreds of politicians called at the house during the evening and inscribed their names in the visitor's book. The extra editions got out immediately after the announcement of the deal) are still celling everywhere in enormous numbers. Last week M. Ferry r binned the presidency of the Estttfittr newspaper and the presidency of the National repub ioan association that be iiiiuht devote himself entirely to his duties in the ncnate. The general feeling is that although his ejection to the presidency of the senate waa contrary to the wiche of M. Carnot ami M. Iiibot. his death is a serious loss to the government. In the case of another cabinet crisis, be, in his oilicial capaci y, would have been the first nun to whom M Carnot wou d have been bound to turn for advice. It was with such an event in view that M. Ferry's supporters in the Eenato compe 'ed bi-t e ection in the room ot M. Leroyer, who was be.ieved to lack the qualities net e-.ary for euch a part in the next ctiais. With M. Carnot as president. M. liibut as premier, M. Casimir lVrier as president of the chamber o: deputies, und M. Ferry as president ot the senate the opportunists feit that they hud four of their strongest men in portions to me t the perilous consequences of the Panama exposure.
