Smalley to be collector of customs at Burlington, Vt., was referred to the commerce committee. His former nomination, vice V, m. Wells, suspended, had been adversely reported and was one of the eases over which a spirited contest was expected. 1 he presi dent withdrew this nomination and sent in the name again “vice William \v ells, re signed.” , , The senate is likely to spend to-morrou in secret session.

The witnesses were policemen and report ers, and confirmed tho testimony hereto fore tnken. R. M. Thompson (business not given) was rather an interesting witness. He was at the Haymarket meeting. Stopping near the entrance to an alley, a short distance from tho speaker’s wagon, ho saw Spies mount the wagon, inquire for Parsons and descend to the ground. Shortly after Spies, accompanied by a man who had been pointed out to him as Schwab, passed by him into the alley. Grinnell—Did you hear any words spoken by either of the men? Witness—I heard the words “pistols and police.” Then one man asked the other would one he enough. Grinnell—What happened thon? Witness—The men came out of the alley and went west on Randolph street. I knew there was to be speaking, and fol lowed them to learn where the speaking would take place. They went west to Halstead street, and I followed. Near Halstead they were joined a third man whom I had not seen before. Grinnell (handing witness a photograph of Schnnubel]—Does this resemble the man who you saw join Spies? • Witness—Yes, sir. Grinnell—What happened then? Witness—The three men started toward Haymarket. I went along, and once when quite close to them 1 saw Spies hand the strange man something which he put in his right hand coat pocket. A moment later I passed by them and heard Schwab say: “Now if they come give it to them.” Before I was out of hearing 1 heard Spies say, “I don't think we can, for they won’t give us u chance to-night,.” Witness then told how he accompanied the men buck to Haymarket, where by this time quite a crowd had assembled. Spies mounted to the speaker’s wagon and wit ness lost sight of the other two. THE GREELY EXPEDITION. ell's Clairs iipliiitirull) lirnioil. INDIANA!' statem sms.
