I Havemeyer, After Consulting His Attorney, Refuses to State Amounts of Contributions. MORE DAMAGING EVIDENCE Searls Admits That Ho "Labored" with Senators In Order to Secure Favorable Legislation. Senator Allen Piles the Witness rrlth Questions and Brings Out Some Tea Uniony of a Sensational CharacterDenial That Croker Left for Europe Because He Did ot Want to Testify. WASHINGTON, June 13. Mr. Havemeyer, who yesterday stated that he could not give the amounts of the sugar trust's contribution to the campaign "funds of the different states, but indicated a willingness to do. so, said to the committee today that upon consultation with counsel he would decline to give the amounts of the contributions. He was advised that under the terms of the resolution the amount of such contributions was no part of the investigation. The committee also took this view of the matter, as the witness has sworn that no contributions had been made in any cas? to eeeure the election of United States senators. Mr. Havemeyer stated that in the last three years the profit3 "f the trust had fceen s of a cent per pound on refined sugar, and the increased cost to the consummer. under the proposed bill, would be a cent a round. He admitted that ttte purpose of the formation of the trust was to increase the coöt to the American consumers. Senator Allen "And when you did form the trust you did advance the price Sf sugar to the American consumer?" Mr. Havemeyer "We did. It was an advance cf about a quarter of a cent Cet." Senator Allen "And the American consumer is tod-ay paying three-eitrhths of a cent a pjund on refined sugars more than he would b? compelled to pay under a system of separate refineries?" Mr. Havemeyer "Yes. sir." Senator Allen "If the trust wer vvip?d out the American consumer would !te tnlited to the extent of threeTäiehth. if a cent per pound on hi3 lugar?" Mr. Havemeyer "I will admit thit. Bat anything: that will wioe out the irust will wipe ut the industry." John A. Sar'es, secretary and treisBrer of the American sugar refining company, was the subject of the committee's ftuestions from 3 o'clock until 6 this ftfteruocm. Mr. Se-rles frankly admitted that he tad made it his business in influence legislation favorable to the sugar trust, and that for thi3 purpose had cal!?d apon and labored with many senators. I'he witness stood upon his rights, however, and when asked about the campaign contributions declined In several Instances to answer questions on this Subject. He declined to state the amount xpendd in 192 on the ground that it was not within the province of the inluiry. "Do you not," a.ked Senator Allen, "decline to state simply because yu know It was disreputable and unlawful to contribute this money?" "No. Fir; I do not," renlled Mr. Sotirles, 'admit anything of th? kind." Senator Alln "Do you think It is perfectly laudable for the American sugar refining company to contribute large Bums of money, by the thousands of dollars, for the purpose of influencing elections in this country?" Mr. Searles "I have always understood for many years that it Is the custom of both parties to solicit from corporations and individuals contributions tor the carrying on of their political campaigns, and that it is the custom of corporations and individuals to respond to such invitations. And with that understanding and what I believe to be & general custom the American sugar refining company has made such contributions at times." Senator Allen "Do you believe it is A COMMON QUESTION.

Qt'AV 'FESSCS LP. He rionxht SiiRnr Stock for Speculation. WASHINGTON, June 16. Senator Quay was before the sugar trust committee today. He toll the committee that he bought sugar steck for speculation and that he would do ?o again. Senator Quay said he bad been dealing in slocks more or less all his life, and for the past twenty months had bought and suld sugar stocks. The day before the vote was taken he sold all he had at a loss, so that it could not be charged that it influenced his vote. He said that he had not been furnished with information as to what the finance committee would do with the sugar schedule anl that formed no part of his bnsis of purchase or sale. He saw no reason why a United States senator shouldn't avail himself cf a plain business proposition if he intended to transact any such business in the future as he had in the past. A number of other senators were examined during the day, but none of them gave any testimony beyond the denial of the categ-oi-lcal quostioii3 concerning the purchase and ownership of sugar stock or knowledge of any purchase by any one connected with them, either officially or domestically. The list includes Senators Gordon. Jones of Nevada, Kyle, McLaurin, Manderson, Mills. Mitchell of Wisconsin. Morrill. Murphy, Palmer, Pasco, Perkins. Piatt, Proctor, Pugh, Roache, Sherman, Shoupe, Squire, Stewart, Teller, Turpie, Vest. Morgan, Power, Vilas, Voorhee3 and V.'hite. Senator Ransom created a slight sensation when he appeared before the senate sugar trust Investigation committee today. He was asked, as were ether senators who were before the committee, the following question by Senator Lodge: "Has any member of your family or any person In your employ, or any clerk employed under the laws of the United States In your service been, to your knowledge. Interested In any of the ways Indicated in any cf the preceding questions in any transaction 1n sugar stocks or certificates during the period mentioned?" Replying to the question, Mr. Ransom askpd leave to make a statement. On the night of last Thursday he had been visited at his home by Mr. 1 lowland, correspondent of the New York Press, who asked him substantially the same question" as had been put to him by the committee. Mr. Ransom made explicit denial, whereupon Mr. Howland Informed him that a brokerage firm In this city, Süsbee & Co., had an entry in their books which indicated that the senator had speculated ii sugar stock during the period of the tariff debate. "Mr. Howland," continued Mr. Ransom, "asked me if I knew any other person by the name of Ransom Jn this city. I told him I knew of but one person in the city by the name of Ransom, and that was my son George, who was my clerk. He asked where he was, and I said he was in the parlor and I would step and bring him In. I was perhaps more cautious than the occasion required and I said to Mr. Howland that I would thank him to come with me to the door so that he could see that no communication should take place betwsen nie and my son. I went to the parlor door where George was and beckoned him to come in. I did not speak to him or see him between the parlor and my room, ana when he got in my room I asked the gentlemen to state their business to him and told my son whatever the matter was to tell the truth about it. He then stated to those in my presence that he had bought some nugar stock on the 17th or the ISth of April. He put up a margin of $!?. which he paid the broker on sugar stock. He said, he, on the same day, had put up a margin of $25 on cotton. "He said he lost the cotton and made $10 on su?ar; that after that he repeated the eame bet on sugar, but not on cotton, and I think he lost the second. He then stated that he and Capt. Karnes, a messenger here at the commerce committee room, after that, on two occasions, bought $10 worth of sugar stock apiece. They went in together, and I asked the correspondent to examine my son fully as much as he pleased and to see Capt. Barnes and examine him too." Senator Ransom proceeded to relate that about two weeks ago Capt. Barnes, previously alluded to, had come to him to tell him that a friend had informed him tha he (the senator) had been speculating in sugar. The senator denied the story And . Mat 3 tn , it tlits It. Til

latter returned with! the assurance that there was no basis for the assertion. Tha senator had told Correspondent Howland, about this incident, withholding from himi the name of Barnes's informant, which had been communicated to him In confidence. Senator Ransom advised the committee to summon Mr. Howland and see If his story did not correspond with what had just been stated to the committee. Senator Gray asked: "Had you any knowledge whatever until this Interview with Mr. Howland of the bets of your son with this broker in sugar and cotton?" Senator Ransom said: "I never dreamed of such a thing. I never thought of it. I would not have believed It. The truth of it is, I went to my son with a great deal of confidence whn this correspondent waited to see him. The paper shows that when he bought the first stock I was out of the city. The ISth of April was when we were at Governor Vance's funeral at Ashevllle. "I may state to the committee that I have no interest whatever and never had stock since I have been in the senate." The correspondents Edwards and Shriver. who have been indicted by the grand Jury for refusing to answer the questions of the senate sugar trust Investigating committee, have been notified to appear for arraignment next Tuesday. They had expected to be arraigned today and appeared at the district attorney's office, but were excused. It is understood that the grand jury Is expected to complete its Investigation of the charge against E. R. Chapman, the New York broker, at the same time.

BAYNE COMMITS SUICIDE. EX-COXGrtESSMAX OP THE PITTS BUItG DISTRICT EXDS HIS LIFE. Dependency, Rpsalllng: from Illness, Cannes the Act Shoots Himself In the Rlcht Temple Dnrlng1 the Absence of the Xurse Ills Career. WASHINGTON, D. C, June 16. In a fit of despondency, resulting from a long and incurable illness, and depressed by a sudden and violent attack of dangerous symptoms, Thomas M. Bayne, the well-known ex-representative of the Allegheny district in conpress, at 10:15 o'clock this morning forestalled the end, by sending a bullet through his head, killing himself Instantly. At the time Mr. Bayne was alone in his handsome and luxurious home at 1629 Massa-chusetts-ave.. In the most ultra-fashionable portion of the city, with the exception of the servants, his wife being temporarily absent in Philadelphia. He had been ill for a long time, and, indeed, It was his bad health that induced him to relinquish his labors in Congress, which had crowned him with distinction, and where he had earned a reputation as a clever, vigorous debater and an expert on complexities of the metal schedule of the tariff bills. About eighteen months ago he was induced to take a voyage around the world, and when he returned last July it appeared that he had improved. This gain was but temporary, however, and he suffered greatly from fits of depression consequent upon the mutations of his disease, which was consumption. Recently he failed so that It became necessary to have a trained nurs constantly with him. About 8 o'clock this morning he called the nurse, and said he was suffering, having just had a hemorrhage, which had covered his breast with blood. The nurse did everything in ner power to make him comfortable, but at 10 o'clock, when she was absent from the sick room for a moment, a shot rang out. She rushed back to find her patient lying unconscious with a. revolver beside him and a ghastly hol. in his right tempie. Medical help was speedily summoned and Dr. Rowers responded, but when he reached the bt-dsidc Mr. P.ayne had breathed his last. Coroner Woodward, who had also bvn calied, soon appeared, and decided that as the facts were so evident an inquest was unnecessary. He therefore gave the necessary certificate of death, self-inliicted. News (f the sad event spread rapidly and the Pennsylvania delegation in congress being notified, the Hon. TV. A. Stone, Mr. Bayne's successor in congress, caxne to the house and took charge of affairs, summoning an undertaker and addressing a telegram to Mrs. Bayne in Philadelphia. The response was that she would reach Washington this afternoon. Meanwhile the funeral" arrangements will wait her decision, though it is expected that the body will be buried at Allegheny where Mr. Bayne's family is buried. The New nt Pittsburg. riTTSBURG. June 16. The news of the suicide of Thomas M. Bayne created Intense excitement in this city. People who read the announcement on the bulletin boards could hardly believe it. Just what caused him to commit such a rash deed puzzled his most intimate friends. Some of them, however, have been aware that he has not been in very good health for a long while. Col. Bayne was fifty years old last Thursday. He entered the union army in July. '62, as colonel of the One-hun-dred-and-thirty-sixth Pennsylvania volunteers, which ho commanded during its nine months' service. At the close of the war he was admitted to the Allegany county bar. and In 1S70 was elected district attorney. In 174 he was elected to congress from the Twenty-third district, serving until 1S90. when he voluntarily resigned, on account of ill health. He was married to a daughter of Mr. Smith, of the well-known firm of Hostetter & Smith. She was very wealthy, having acquired a large fortune through her father. Ccl.. Bayne had also nccumulated a snug fortune. He was the founder of the Press of this city, and was interested in many other enterprises. He was a mason of high degree and was present at the recent state conclave of the Knights Templars In this city, at which he appeared to be In the best of spirits. A Good Appetite Always accompanies good health, and an absence of appetite la an indication of something wrong. The loss of a rational desire for food is soon followed by lack of strength, for when the supply of fuel is cut off the fire burns low. The system gets into a low state, and is liable to severe attacks of disease. The universal testimony given by those who have used Hood's Sarsaparilla, as to its great merits in restoring and sharpening the appetite, in promoting healthy action of the digestive organs, and as a purifier of the blood, constitutes the strongest recommendation that can be urged for any medicine. Those who have never used Hood's Sarsaparilla should surely do so this season. oooooooooooc jgJ Worth a Guinea a Box.

Deserted by Miners from All the Coal States, He Confesses Defeat and Throws Up the Sponge. MINERS ARE MUCH DIVIDED Stormy Meetings Meld In All the Districts, The Most of Them Ending in Wild Confusion. Plttsbnrsr Miners Refuse Ho Go to Work Monday and Defeat the Motion by t Larue Majority Maryland Troops Are Called Ont to Maintain Order .Miners of Ohio, Illinois, West Virginia and Pennsylvania Refuse to ItecoKnlee the Columbus Compromise and Are Awaiting the Result of the Tuesday Conference COLUMBUS, O., June 13. John McBride made the statement today that being out of money and with 4,000 men in Tennessee having deserted and with 10,000 at work ebewhere he had to throw up the sponge. Being asked by what authority the national committee made a settlement for the miners, he said: "Our authority was delegated to us by the national conference at Cleveland, May 16. The miners representatives were told in plain terms before passing the resolution that when the danger line was reached I would favor saving all that could be saved rather than meet defeat with its consequent demoralization and dlsater." "Do you think you had reached the danger line at the time the agreement was made?" The reply to this, in substance, was that the men had been held in line by the agitation. "Our funds," continued Mr. McBride, "were exhausted and we wern hundreds of dollars in debt and our field workers, unable to pay their own expenses, were compelled to stay at home while from all points came the cry, 'For God's sake send us money to keep our men In line or the fight is lost.' We could not aid them because we had no money. If money does not come from some source the next issue of our official Journal will be the last. We have a dozen men Iii jail for conspiracy, among the latter XV. B. Wilson of our national board at Cumberland, Md. "With no money to jdefend these men many of them, though innocent, will suffer. "Four thousand men deserted us at Coal Creek, Tenn. Nearly 7,000 are at work in Kansas, 10,000 out: 14,000 in Vlrginir and West Virginia are also at work. Others are setting aside our policy of peace. We had reached the danger line and made the best we could of the situation." Tatrick McPride said today that while the press had been favorable to the miners, the extrem policy of the national officers ltv: demanding a national settlement 'or' nirf was only practical, but possible so long' as miners adhered to the peace poli; y: of the suspension. The first act of vjjojerce blasted all hopes in that direction. It was evident that If the suspension' continued much longer it would be at a great sacrifire cf human life for whlet. If the officials took no steps to brinir about a settlement. thy would be he-Id morally responsible. If miners prefer to see their families starving while imported labor run the nines, guarded by Winchesters in the hands of deputies, and If necessary, by the armed force of the stat, to the settlement made by the national officials, then we have not understood them nor our duty and the sooner we step out and make way for men who will conduct the fight along these lines the 'better it will be for all Iarties. ' 1 WILL NOT RKSl .MH. Pittsburg? Miners So Decide After a Stormy Dehnte. PITTSBURG; June 15. A delegate convention of the miners of the Pittsburg district was held here today and was attended by 124 representatives. President Cairnes of the district presided. The address of the national officers was read and a motion made to adopt it. This raised a storm. Two hours were spent in discussion, which at times became so animated and unparliamentary that the presiding officer gave up In disgust and declared the meeting adjourned. He rescinded this decision, however, and after more talk a vote was taken resulting S3 for and 31 against resuming on Monday next. As quite a number of the de'egates had been Instructed to vote wilh the majority, a motion was made-and carried to make the vote unanimous. Instead of voting by assemblies and pits, as had been agreed on earlier in the meeting, a rising vote was had and resulted in a victory for the compromisers. The scale committee mad a ;arlial report, but as It was late, the convention adjourned until tomrrow, when the case of the miners east of Pittsburg will be considered, the scale for them not having been covered in the Columbus compromise. A meeting of all railroad coal operators who favor the Columbus settlement has been called to take place in the Ferguson building Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. gTILL WAGIXG WAR. Miners In All the Conl Producing States Destroying Property. PITTSBURG, June 15.

The express leaves Pittsburg at 9:20 o'clock and fortunately was running so fast that the tie was reduced to splinters and the train sped on without the passengers being aware of their narrow escape- The strikers deny responsibility for the outrage and guards have been placed along the road to prevent further damage. Tronhle at Creennbor. GREENSBURG, Pa., June 15. Sheriff McCann and a posse of deputies went to Strlckler today and found about five hundred strikers guarding the coal train which they had forced the trainmen to take back from Shoup's station.

This afternoon at the opera house here the coal miners of this section of Ohio held a meeting to consider and act upon the Columbus compromise, nearly one thousand miners being present. The scale was fully discussed for over four hours. They could arrive at .no conclusion and adjourned to await the outcome of the convention to be held in Columbus next Tuesday. No mines will resume in District Xo. 6. If the miners had accepted CO cents, thi3 being the great coal center in Ohio, it would have broken the strike, as four thousand miners reside in this county.

One thousand five hundred men met today to hear the McBride circular, but adjourned without action.

A joint meeting of miners at Mineral Point and Sherrod3vil'. with over 500 miners represented, decided not to accept the conditions of the Columbus conference, but to submit the question to another convention, thus indorsing State President Adams.

That we cannot refrain from blaming them for surrendering our cause at such a critical time; and be It further Resolved. That in view of the general dissatisfaction as expressed by the members of our organization at large, we demand the resignation of such officers as signed this mis-named compromise (whether state or national) and we favor a national convention to take action in the premises, either by exonerating them or electing their successors; and be it further Resolved, That we, the miners of Linton, irrespective of all agreements or efforts at compromise, are still unalterably in favor of standing for the 70-cent basis.

PHILADELPHIA, June 16. At just 7:19 this evening the Cornell boat crew glided smoothly over the line which marked the finishing point of the race between the Cornell and University of Pennsylvania, Five lengths in the rear came the vanquished oarsmen of the red and blue. Cornell's time was 21:12, and the university 21:34?;. The Ithalcans won easily. It was not lack of trainng that caused the downfall of the Pennsylvania boys, for even the Cornelllans admitted that the University of Pennsylvania crew was superior in muscular strength, but it was a case of skill against brawn and muscle, and skill won. The rowing of the sons of Pennsylvania lacked the rhythmic precision that characterized that of the Cornell boys. Found Dead. Last evening a person giving the name of G. R. Thompson registered at Hunt's Hotel, and desired to be called In season to take the 12 p. m. train for Chicago. Being unable to awake him, the room was entered by means of the ventilator over the door, when the gentleman was found to be dead. He was advertising agent for Sulphur Bitters, which has an extensive sale. The coroner returned a verdict of death from heart disease. His body will be sent East immediately. Cln. Commercial.

ERASTUS WIMAN IS GUILTY. FORGERY IX THE SECOXD DEGREE AXÜ MERCY ASKED FOIi. Dramatic Scene In the Court Room "When the Verdict Is Returned Defendant Had Expected nn Acquittal or Disagreement The rcnnlty. NEW YORK, June 15. Erastus XVimatv has been found gvilty of forgery In the second depree. The maximum penalty for the offense is ten years at hard labor in the state prison. Under the recent laws passed by the legislature the minimum penalty has been abolished and Mr. Wiman may be sentenced to a term of Imprisonment fiom one day to ten years. The jury, after listening to the impartial charge of Judge Ingraham, retired at 2:35. Everyone In court was on the tip-toe of expectation. The majority, however, were confident that he jury would dlsagre on the grounds of absence of proof that Wiman committed the alleged forgeries with criminal intent. The first shock that the defendant received was when Deputy Sheriff Brown placed him under arrest the moment that Judge Ingraham began hi3 charge to the jury. Wiman's sons eat beside him and a number of his friends sat around. He chatted pleasantly to them and his every movement showed that he was confident of an acquittal, or at least a disagreement. Precisely at 4:30. just an hour and fifty-five minutes after they had retired, the jury filed into the court room. The clerk said to the jury: "Gentlemen, have you agreed to a verdict?" "Yes, we have," said Foreman Murray. "I am sorry to say we find Mr. Wiman guilty of forgery In the second degre. but we recommend him to the mercy of the court." Judge Ingraham remanded Wiman for sentence until Wednesday, June 20, and then discharged the jury. Deputy Sheriffs Brown and Kelly escorted Wiman to the Tombs prison. His sons accompanied him and bade him an affectionate good-by at the prison gate. In answer to the requests for an interview, sent to him by several newspaper men, Mr. Wiman sent back this written reply: "Impossible to see you now." Gen. Tracy said: "I am astonished at the verdict, and until I can consult with my associates I cannot say whether an application for a new trial will be made or not."

Eighteen priests are present to testify for Corbett and Rishop Ronacum to appear against him. Bishop Bonacum claims that Corbett excommunicated himself under the canonical law by citing his bishop to appear in a civil court and therefore can no longer exercise his priestly functions. Corbett replies by declaring that the bishop first appealed to a civil court and by his own argument was first excommunicated. The trial will last several days and has far-reaching consequences In the catholic church of America as calcuated to limit a bishop's authority. Vox Popn II.
