M WASHINGTON.
, May 4.—In the Senate, Hr.
VoorhtM’ resolution, for a committee of
investigation into alleged oorrupt or im
proper influences concerning the House
bill now before the finance committee
amending the laws in regard to distilled
spirits in bonded warehouses, was taken
op. Hr. Windom moved an amendment
providing for an investigation as to
whether any money has been raised by
contributions or otherwise from parties in
interest to seeore the passage or defeat of
the bill, and for what naaa it has boon ex-
pended* Mr- VoorhMS aoccptod the
amendment, and said be had offered the

the charges as unworthy of further notice.

had been raised by the so-called

A large amount was now doe on whisky in

present a short time, and took part in the
argument. The buoetanoeof the inter
view was a pretty thorough discussion of
the Cachet claim. Hr. Blaine made the
ic'nt that it originated as a claim npon
-era by a French citizen, and that Ship-
herd could have no rights against Pern

'herd asserted that the claim was

Hr. Birins seemed quite clear, from the

Mr, Ka*son, in moving to go into com

proposition for a commission, on the
ground that the ways on! means oommit-

THK STAB BOUTS CASAS.
The regular proceedings in tho cases of
foe United States against Brady, the Dor
seys, Turner and others were began in foe
Criminal Court to-dsy. Brady and Turner
were foe only defendants present at the
opening of ooart. Ttere wu a large at
tendee oe of ooansel and spectators. Coun
sel for the defendants ia foe straw bond
were attentive observers ot the pro
ceedings, for although thou cases will not,
it is said, be brought to trial before next
fall, there are many points of similarity
between them and the present action, ft
is understood that the prosecuting officers
regard them u closely connected and even
entertain the belief that they are but parte
of a grand conspiracy. The proceedings
began with foe introduction of another
motion to qoash bj Cob Totten in Tamer's
ease. He said foe grounds were substantial
ly the same u those already di-poted of ia
other cases, and ha-asked to htvefoepha
of not guilty withdrawn and to have this
motion entertained. Ool. Totten also pre
sented several other motions of an obstruc
tive character, and proceeded to explain
the new points thsy involved.
The question wu disposed of by dodge
Wiley as follows : These defendants,after
many dilatory motions, were finally ar
raigned, and had nothingto say. They re
fused to plead, and foe oourt entered a
pica of not guilty, and a motion to grant
oneofthsm, sustained by two reasons,
had been overruled. A plea in abatement
had been made to the misbehaviour of the
jury. There was nothing in tho pits to
snsCain foe court in allowing it. Tur
ner, after refasing‘o p'ead, now, ou the
day of trial, asks leave to withdraw bis
plea and onter ano’her motion to quash,
t was too late, after all of theso procoed-
Aa to tho matter of misjoinder, it
que-tion of greater weight. The
motion had been made at a time when the
trial had been fixed, aed be would uie his
own discretion and overrule the motions.
The defense noted exceptions to this
ruling. Col. Ingersoll said be had another
motion to file in the Dorsey case, aed he
was about to make an argument for it,
when Jadge Wiley said the matter was
finally settled, and he should hear no more
Arguments upon it. Couasel for tho de
fense then filed a number of motions and
. leas, which the court overruled in bulk,
and Col. Totten asked to have e xception*
note. The c >nrt stated that there was no
sneh thing ta noting an exception in a
crimnnl oourt in this District. They
could be recorded with an order of the
ooart*
Mr. Merrick said John W. Dorsey had
not been arraigned, and Mr. Bliss added
that in view of the fact that Col. Ingerscll
hod promised him in positive terms, sev
eral weeks ago, to prod ice John W. Dorsey
ia coart. Relying npon this promise, al
though they had a bench warrant for his
arrest, they had prom's d not to make
themselves unhappy in trying to secure his
arrest. Dorsey had not been prodnoei.
He wanted to call attention to this bare
fact, and he regarded it as a mere msasu-e
of delay.
At foia point Ingersoll sprang to his feet
and, bringing his fist down upon the table,
exclaimed: “You ato a liar, sir—a liar."
Considerable excitement followed, and
the court ealled upon tho marshal with the
evident intention of placing some of the
participants under arrest, bat secmiagly
changing his mind, Judge Wylie said:
“Such language is intolerable, and I wilt
not endure it. I’crhaps Col. Ingersoll has
tone beyond jest measures of retaliation,
rat the offense of Mr. Bliss is inexcusable.
I will allow this offense to pass upon this
oocasion. but warn all gentlemen to avoid
a repetition of it.”
Mr. Merrick then entered into a long
explan ation* of foe circumstances of the
agreement between counsel as to Dorsey’s
appearance, and claimed that foe state
ment of Mr. Bliss was earrect. Col. Ingor-
soll, in answer to an inquiry from the
court, said he did not deny the facts.
Ho did deny that he had been
guilty of a trick. He had acted with
perfect good fai h, under the conviction
that he would be able to prodacy Doroey.
He supposed when be made tho arrange
ments that be had the power to produce
Dorsey, and wanted to say now that be
ooold cot. Mr. Btiae then followed .with <
personal explanation, which foe oourt in
tempted to say that they had better get to
work. The failure of Dorsey’s oojnsel to
produce him in oourt had left foe govern
ment in an embarraosing position, and a
delay until Hay 16th waa granted to give
timo for the sanies of tho bench warrant
npon Dorsey, which was granted soms
a with a geuoral discussion of foe tariff
internal revenue questions. He fa*
vored a tariff for revenue only. Mr.
Tccksr spoke for two hours, but it was
only in tho last few minutes that he dis
cussed the features of foe pending bill. It
had been well said, he oontendad, that
this commission bill wee an affidavit for
the oontinaaoce of a bad <rea«o-a cause
on which the defendant dare not go to trial
before foe people. The proposition was
that this house should hand over to foe
_ ., . ,now*
of appointing a commission, which should
gather the facts on which the verdict was
to be rendered.. Instead of voting to remit
this whole question to a commission, the
House ought to march up boldly to Us
duty an! meet the issue before theooun-
Pennsylvania, chairman
of the eommittee on ways and mesne, then
took the floor to sum up the debate. Fe-
licitatina the House on th© fact that a long
■nil tedious discussion was about to b©
brought to a close, be reminded the gentle
man from Virginia (Tucker) that if foe
n bill was an affidavit for a i
the affiant was a Democi
Democratic
Senator,'and that he acted for the Dem
ocratic Senate of the United States. He
was for the bill. He did not believe that
foe tariff oould be wisely reformed in many
years with the controversy in Congress be
tween abstract free trade and a system al-
lied to tho policy nation*
al economy. The present discussion bad
demonstrated the unfitness of foe Ameri
can Congreee to handle the subject, and
had given the House au insight into the
condition of the public mind on foe qoee-
He denied that foe tariff wae one
that needed overthrow and reconstruction.
It needed amendment. He spoke for two
hours and a quarter, and then stopped not,
as he said, from any look of matter to dis
cuss, but by reason of fatigue, t is speech
was listened to with great interest and at
times considerable amusement, and re*
ceived mncli &T)d1&u3©*

Mr. MacLane, of Maryland, gave notice

quire whether any money haa been raised

The examination of Senator Blair was
resumed before the foreign affairs oom
mittee to day, Representative Blount con-
ducting tho oxjunination*
Question—“What was the amount of
stock tendered you by Shipherd V”
Witness—“Do you think that es sen till ?”
Blount— 1 '*1 do,”
Witness—'“I must decline to answer
that. I have stated all that I think essen
tial of my connection with the company,
and do not esre to go further in that direc
tion. I never received any money or any
other tiling than the stock.” ,
Mr. Blount then read from Mr. Blaine’s
evidenoe. and asked: “Was Mr. Blaine
correct in saying that at the first inter
view Shipberd told foe secretary that Sena
tor Blair was one of the active council ?”
Answer—“I cannot tell as to the expres
sions used. Thera was no misundersUind-
about it. It was well understood at the
time. I remember Mr. Bontwell and ex-
S'uator Oiagin were mentioned at foe
time.”
Xh«. witness replied to farther questions:
Mr. Blaine understood that I appeared
there os connvol. He knew that I was de
sirous of aiding Sbipherd. I asked the
Secretary if from bis knowledge of foe
affair there oould be any impropriety in
my seting as counsol, and he said he oould
see none. This was beton this interview
with Shipherd. No one intimated to me
that there was any impropriety in my
being connected with the company until
this investigation began. Imever conceal
ed my connection. 1 should do the same
tiling over with the same light. I have no
ripology to offer hero or elsewhere.”
Mr. Blonnt again a3ked how much stock
the witness had received as a fee from
Shipherd, and Mr. Blair again refused to
answer.
The witness stated th*t he had not influ
enced any capitalist to enter the schcin**.
Question—“Did you ever use this lan
guage (quoting from Shipherd’s testimony
a paragraph in which occur tho words, ‘you
should not ss though ships of war wore oa
their way to foe Pacific coast. I ran only
nisure you th# foe United States will
ipoak in a mmner to mar i an era in di
plomacy.’ etc.?’’ Answer—“I may have
used such language, but the questions are
asked from a different mental view from
that under which tho letter was written.”
The witness desired to explain just tho
view he took. At tbe time he believed that
at i hat time Chili had changed its mind
and proposed to insist npon the dismem-
borment of Peruvian territory. He (Biair)
looked npon it as An insult to this govern
ment, and he believed that some steps
would be takep by our government, end
that possibly ships of. war would be sent
there. •
Mr. Blount did not think a long explana
tion necossary. What he wan ed to know
was why be spoke in this manner to his
client of the policy of foe United States if
he did not think that policy gave any value
to'the claim.
Chairman Williams—“Did yon regard se
curing the friendly offices of this govern
ment a* foe first impo tant step to be taken
in the 8hipherd e-iterprise?” Answer—“I
regarded persuading Chill to take an in
demnity instead of insisting upon the dis
memberment of the Peruvian territory as
an important step to take. I wanted the
United States to take a position friendly to
Peru. I considered it addition'll aid if tho
friendly offices of foe United States were
secured. I did not expect the policy of the
UnitsdSlatts would be at all changed on
account of these claims.”
Question—“Did yon understand the gov
ernment as demanding from Chili that
she should not insist on tbe dismember
ment of Peru ? ” The witness declinad to
discuss foe mesningof the dispatches. He
had no other view of the poli ’y th m that
indicated in the dispatches.
Mr. Bl* -nut (quoting from Shipherd’s tes
timony) asked: “How did yon learn Gen
eral Grant’s opinion upon this matter?”
The witness objected t > this line of inqui
ry, but Mr. Blount replied: “If the name
of General Grant and foe influeno ' of this
government have been brought to bear to
induce the payment by Pern of *12 >,030,-
ooc, I think it pertinent that the names of
oil parties interested should be known.”
The witness said his knowledge of Grant’s
~'npberd’s state
ly than waa opr reel. Ho was not prepared,
however, to call Shiphord’a statements mis
representations.
Mr. Blount called tho witness’ attention
to foe report of the law officer of the State
Department upon tbe Lnndtoau claim, and
asked: “But do you think Landreau would
expect this government to recognize foe
validity of the claim, his right to which at
tached before he became a citizen ?"
Answer—“I am not prepared to answer
that wholly in the negative. It is cer
tainly whittling down American citizen
ship pretty fine. If a man becomes a
citizen, and has property at the time, and
this government will not protect him in
that property because it was acquired-be
fore he became an American citizen, I
would not give much for American citi
zenship.”
Toe witness was asked as to the opinion
he bad given that there was justice in foe
Ooehet olaim, and replied that Cachet was
foe disooverer of valuable properties of
guano, while Landreau discovered beds of
guano where nono were previously known
to exist, and then continued: “As to the
fact that some onto pence tion should b-j
made for these discoveries I think any fair
mind would assent As to the amount I
do not assume to say.”

wretched condition for to-day’a contest.

the attendance large, a noticeable feature
being tbe presence of many ladies. The
betting wu heavy, particularly on the sec

Dublin, May 6 —Lord Frederick Caven
dish an 1 Under Secretary Burke were shot
dead th a evening in Phoenix park.
Dublin, May G.—Lord Frederick Caven
dish and Earl Spencer had remained at
Dublin Castle oog-tgod in the transaction
of offioial business until 6 o’clock this af
ternoon, when each drove to his respective
residence. After dinner Lord Frederick
Cavendish and Mr. Thomu Henry Burke
under secretary Cor Ireland, went for a’
walk in Phoenix park. They were shot
close to tho chiof secretary’s lodge. No
arrests have been made.
London, May <L-A later telegram from
Dublin fays it now appears that' Lord
Frederick Cavendish an 1 Under Secretary
Burke were stabbed and not thot. They
wore both strolling in the park, about half t Jeld andln
a mile from foe city gate and a quarter of'
a mile from the chief secretary’s lodge,
when a car drove up containing fonr men,
two of whom jumped down from foe car
and attacked Lord Frederick Cavendish
and Mr. Burke, etabbling them both sev
eral times in the throat and breast. The
victims struggled hard for life, and in the
strugglo became separated, their bodies
being found some ten paces apart. The
tragedy occurred about ten minutes after
7 o’clock in foe evening, and in broad day
light. The bodies were first disooverei by
two young gentlemen who were riding
bicycles through foe park, and who imme
diately gave ths alarm to the polioe. Sur
geons soon reached the spotj bat the polioe
were already conveying Mr. Burke’s body
away to town, where an examination
showed life to be extinct. The upper part
.of the body was perforated inn shocking
manner and presented a ghastly sight.
Proceeding farther, the melical men
reached the body of Lo.*d Frederick Caven
dish, which was being oouveyed away from
foe park on a stretcher. The body c f foe
chief secretary displayed the same dread
ful wouods, iu addition to which his left
arm was broken and torn, aa if he had put
it op to protect his breast. Lord Frederick
Cavendish was quite a dead. The bodies
were taken to Stephens’ hospital, where
they will remain until foe inquest is held.
The locality of foe outrage is terribly
markod with blood. The spot a hero the
body of Lori Frederick Cavendish wa*
found was absolutely deluged, while Mr.
Burke’s body lay in in a pool of blood.
