Also gin my line, let me quote HUNTING FOR HIDDEN WEALTH Another Skeleton Found in Garrison Cave Encourges the Hunters. Ozark, Mo, Feb. 8.—The hunt for the hidden teasure in the Garri- son cave continues almost day and night. The hunters were reinforced last week by some fresh men who sleep in the cave at night. Ata depth of 24 feet in one of the shafts they disentombed another skeleton, and were thus given fresh enthu- siasm. This shaft was sunk ona mound at the mouth of the cave The men claim that the mound was made many years ago by a land- slide from the bluffs above and bur- ied the Spaniards alive The old man Garrison, who is having the work done, is very confident that somewhere in this cave in an early day the Spaniards hid a vast amount of gold. Thousands of dollars have been spent in work at the cave. For years different men have eagerly sought for this supposed treasure, and now the whole mouth of the cave is a perfect honeycomb of | shafts, ranging from 10 to 25 feet in depth. A Lady and a Wolfe. Sedalia Bazoe Ia Superintendent Wolfe's case Dr. Eaton offered a resolution in the legislature yesterday morning in the House providing for a committee of five members to be appointed with authority to send for persons and papers in conducting an investiga tion into the charges of Miss Sue O'Bannon, formerly his stenogra pher. The committee consists of Dr. Eaton, chairman, and Messrs. Weinhold, Tate Williams of Chari ton county, and Hart probably have a session this after- noon or evening. It is stated that the charge of O’Bannon is that Su- perintendent Wolfe docked her sal- ary at various times during her two years service to an amount aggre- gating between $80 and $90. MISS O'BANNON'S STATEMENT. The young lady, who is of estima- ble character, is in Jeffrson City | awaiting the meeting of the com- mittee. She puts quite different col- oring to the charges as represented by Superintendent Wolfe in yester day’s communication. She denies positively that she had any agree- ment at or before the time of en- gaging with him and says not until | two months after she took the posi- tion did he mention the subject of docking her wages. ‘‘Superintend- ent Wolfe,” she continued, “came to me in Sedalia before he took charge of his office and offered me the posi_ tion. He did not ‘know then what the appropriations would be, and certainly could pot have made the statements in relation to the $500 | and $600. I was, howeyer, working on a moderate salary, and in refer- ence to wages told him I would be willing to work for as little as $400 if necessary. Two morths after I was here he came to me one day and said that he was short in his contin- gent expense account, and, remind- ing me of my statement that I would be wilhiog “to. work for: 9400, :and ied and alone is entitled to all the | wanted to know if I. would not help him out. I consented and from time to time gave him sums of $10 some $80 or$90. asked me not to mention the matter to anybody.” Miss O'Bannon explained at length | of hangings, and providing. that ex-| her transactions with the superin- tendent, and expressed a great dis- taste for the notoriety the investi- They will} gations would give her, but having j earned the money she thought that | she was justly entitled to it, and as }it bad not been paid to her she |thought it nothing but just and right that Superintendent Wolfe should explain why it was not. At the beginning of the second session of the present congress there were in the senate thirty nine democrats, forty-seven republicans and two populists. The result of the recent election has been to give the democrats a gain of one each in New York, Wisconsin, California and Kansas. The election of Allen populist, in Nebraska decreases the strength of the republicans to forty- two. Whether it increases the dem ocratic strength by one vote of course depends upon the line the newly elected senator will take. It has been stated that he leans toward democracy, and the votes that se- cured his election were democratic votes It is generally expected that he will certainly oppose the re publican policy in regard to the tar iff. Wyoming will probably elect a democratic senator to day. Montana has also yet to choose a senator. After March 4 the republicans will ity in the senate As the democrats will have at least forty three sena- tors and the vice president they will need but little help from the popu- lista to control the senate fully.—K.

Threatening Letter Sent to sentative Mutchler. The Republic Bureau, and Penne Repre- , Cor. Mth St Ylvania Ave > | Washington, D. C., Feb 5 tepresentative Mutchler of Penn- jsylvania, O'Neil of Massachusetts jand Livinston of Georgia have taken a prominent part in the movement | to secure a referm in the present ine jiquitous pension laws. There is a larger soldier element in Mr. Mutch- ler’s district. His course is not ap tr ved by some peoplethere. He bas | received during the past week uot less than a dozen threatening letters One of them, from Erie, Pa., gives a very good idea of the kind of threats | which are being made against him. Hon. Wm. Mutehler: Dear Si Let me give you a pointer in time before you or Mr. O'Neil or Mr. Liv ingston will get their foot in a net and nothing but death will ever get you out if you don’t stop that. We patriots saved the Union. We did tulfill our contract with Uuele Sam during the war. The blood of the soldier coined gold for the stay at- homes. Every Union victory raised the value of bonds and greenbacks the money lenders have received billious of gold. I know you of old the time when you ran against Sam- uel Bridges of Allentown. I know where you live in Easton, Pa. Now whenever that brave fight, as you called it, comes up for an amend- ment to the pension act be very care ful how you cast your vote; you and all of you. This shali be a warning to all We are and haye been abused long enough for saving the Union. Mark my word. I will give you all fair warning. Some of the old sol- diers will die ina ditch, but what they will get square on some of you. You men belong to hell while in your house at Easton or hunted down like a dog single-handed and shot on sight. We are getting old, but you had better kill us than abuse us, for you will be one of the first of them to bite the dust. These are living now in glory had better leave well enough alone. You or any of you will never get auy more warning than this. No detective need apply. Ifyou or any of you think you are right in robbing us, then we are right in killing you on sight. Woe unto them that will go too far. This letter is indorsed by |many a Sorprer.
