National Associated Fress WasuiNgroN, February 12.—Sen- ator Sherman last night furnished the following statement for publication: ‘T have seen the telegram of the Western Associated Press in the lead- ing papers of Ohio of Friday morning, urporting to give the testimony of itney before the treasury investigat- ing committee. T have read the testi- mony given by him, and there is not one word of truth in the whole tele- gram. No such testimony was given; no such seene occurred,and no letters of Senator or Mrs. Sherman were pro- duced by Pitney as alluded to. Iam authorized by Senator Hale, who is mentioned, and to whom I showed the dispatch, to make the same denial, The telegram is a wholesale lie, as the testimony when printeed will show.

(Bigned,) “A. L.

Digest of Their Monthly Re- ports to the State Department, W asniNGToN, February 12.—-The monthly publication by the state de- partment of consular reports, just is- sued, has some interesting statements by consuls in various parts of the world regarding American trade and its needs. Consul Shaw, of Manchester, Eng- land, writes: At present American manufacturers and merchants suffer seriously from the lack of three great aids to fight commercial prominence in the foreign markets of the world. First, direct lines of American ships to foreign ports; second, widely ex- tended banking facilities at the dis- tant trade centres; third, branch houses in eve Wt foreign market. Congul Br g,r: Cork, says: The only possible way, in nmy judgment, to establish a proper equilibrium and *90/that Ametigans {readjuss. %0 will be able to réalize ‘the advantages naturally belonging to them is first, by creating a system of financial ex- changes controlled by Americans, hinged upon the condition of Jhe American market, and second, as has been repeatedly suggested, by the re- vival of American ocean shipping. Consul Prindle, at Bahai, Brazil, says there exists here a large field for the extension of American commerce, but it will be a long time before it can be brought out unless we shall be represented by a first class American house or houses to exhiblt, defend, and push our products and mannfac- tures. Another most powerful factor to very largely increase trade betwean the United States and South America would be the establishment of a line of niue steam vessels under our flag. I quite agrec with all our consuls who have written on the subject. Without exception, so far as I have seen, they advocate the extension of government aid to certain lines of such vessels. believe some mullions could be 80 em- ployed with advantage to the general nterests of the American people. Consul Morrial, Iquique, Peru, says the proportion of American vessels arriving at this point compared with those of other first class powers is very small, For the last four years only one American vessel arrived direct from New York with an assorted cargo. T have persuaded merchants into sending trial orders, the goods to be brought by vessels bound to Valperaiso which, after discharging the bulk of their cargo there, come here to load nitrate. This indirect mode of importation, however, has its disadvancages as a delay of weeks might be suffered. New York wants vessels bound to Valparaiso. The remedy needed is more ships, whether salling vessels or steamers, which come direct to this port, Consul General Weaver, at Vienna, writes concerning the proposed line of steamships from Trieste to New York, under date of ‘January Oth: The Austrian line, Lloyd steamship company, announce the intention of sending out on the 26th a steamship from Trieste to New York. This will be an experiment in order to ascertain if trade between these ports can be made profitable. It is to be hoped it may not be lightly abandoned, but CRIME IN VARIETY..

NSYRACUSE, February 11.—Wm, Terdere, aged. 28, about b o'clock this afternoon went to the house uf pros titution kept by Libby Stokey, 50 Walton street. It 18 supposed for the purpose of calling on Mollie Tar. He was refused admittance by the house- keeper, but pushed through the door and drawing a revolver fired a shot at the Stokey woman which took eftect in her back producing a wound from which she swooned and fell on the tloor. Terdere then started up stairs and fired a second shot at Lottie Smith, recenily from Ro- chester, but missed, The next victim was a girl, at whom he fired two shots, only one of which took effect, passing through the first and second rib; for- tunately the course of the ball was not such as to strike any large blood vossels, but went through tfia lung. After tiring the last. shot, he escaped from the house and went directly to his home, on the shore of Onondaga lake, where he fired two shots into his own body, which will end his life. The Smke{ woman may live, but ,the Tar girl, the physicians say, will die before morning ~ He had been drink- ing some and was extremely jealous, and had early in the day threatened to kill the 1¥nr girl, but it was not thought that he would carry the threat out, as he had often made such threats before.

His storyis corroborated by other testimony, Cuicaco, February 12.—Mr, Luke Ransom, a resident of Housdale, a suburb on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy road, was found murdered in the principal street in that village yes- terday morning. His empty pocket- I | book near the body proved that mur- der was committed for the purpose of robbery. A valuable watch and chain lately presented to Ransom by the employes of D. M. Osborn & Co., is also missing, Derrorr, February 11.—Nothing has yet been heard as to the where- prove successful and tend to the de- sired development of trade between the United States and Austria- Hung This may therefore be a favorable opportunity for our mer- chanta to investigate the practicability of extending trade 1n this direction, Consul Shaw, at Manchester, says: It is not my province to point out the vast influence the English steam- ship lines exert on .the commercs of the world. It is simply colossal in magnitude, and the income from these lines is believed by well informed ex- perts to amount to the enormous sumn total of £25,000,000 annually. The second element in the race for com- mereial prominence in foreign ports is & complement of first-class banking facilities, which must follow rather than go before the establish- ment of American lines of steamers, Capital willfollow wherever ships lead the way and open up a field for its safe and profitable employment.

He was expelled for drunkenness, Through the influence of Colonel Quapgsey, of Colquay, secretary of state of Pennsylyania, he was ap- pointed to a minor position in the New Orlcans postoffice.

He, however, insisted as does the younger Soteldo, that Barton not only fired the fatal shot, but that he fired Able to Get Up. National Assoclated Press. WasniNatoN, February 11.--Mr. Clements, of Saratoga, brother-in-law of A. M. Soltedo, arrived here to-day, and has asked Charles A. Reed to de- fend Charles Soltedo when heis tried. A. M. Soltedo was reperted to be sinking rapidly at 10 o'clock to-night, and Clements and Reed went to the hospital to take dying statement. Mr. Clements did not arrive at the hospital, which is a long distance from the hotel, until after the death of Mr. Soltedo, He was much affected in learning the fact of death. The coro- ner has just been notitied, and will grubs\)]y hold an inquest on Monday. arton 18 reported doing quite well, He was sitting up this evening, and said that but for a lameness on his ankle, occasioned by a fall during the fight fio would be able to be out in a few days. Mrs. Soltedo was at her husband's bedside at the timoe of his death. She had been u constant attendant on him since the shooting, as had also hie sister. During the day and evening no visitors were admitted to the sick roon. This was ordered at the dying man's request, the number of his call- ers having increased since the night of the shooting and their questionings having an irritating effect During the day he had less pain and seemed cheerful and anxious to talk. As he was speaking a marked look of rigor was noticed. He was admonished to refrain from conversation, and his remarks were nearly all con- fined to family affairs. In labored conversation with his wife he expressed his belief that as he was growing no worse, there was a possibility for him to recover. Subsequently Dr. Bliss, standing by his bedside, holding his limp and use- less hand, said: ‘‘Mr. Soltedo, you are aware that we consider your case as hopeless?” ‘I am,” tho patient answered, promptly. ‘‘But, doctor, I feel much better to-day, but of course if I cannot recover I am pre- pared to meet the inevitable.” He closed his eyes; then at times slept fitfully, and when awake was per- fectly conscious of his surround- ings. There was little change in his condition during the after- noon, but this evening his condition seemed rather worse. Still he retained consciousness and hope, and the change was not so apparent until 10 o’clock. Dr. Bliss had visited him in the evening and left at 10 o’clock, not deeming it probable that death would ensue for some hours at least. He had scarcely reached home, however, before a telegraph message was received saying that Soteldo had grown much worse since his departure and was believed to be dying. He immediately hastened to the hospital, but did not arrive until after death. Soteldo was unconscious up to within a comparatively short time before his death, and he expressed himself re- signed to his death, saying that he was contented to die. He spoke not unkindly of Barton, saying that he did not longer hold any feelings against him, and that all ~ that he regretted was his rash conduct in the matter, Mrs. Soteldo was much affected when the end came, though she had been prepared for it by the announcement of Dr. Bliss yesterday that his death could be but a matter of a few hours. The meeting between Mrs, Sateldo and her brother, Mr, Clements, was very affecting, Concerning the ante- mortem statement which Mr. Soteldo was reported to have made yesterda; Mr. Jno. Carson, a personal friend, and who was in the sick room a great deal yesterday, said to-day that if such a statement was made it must have been very brief and sunply to the effect that Soteldo bo- lieved that Barton ehot him. He could not have gone into details as the wound had been received shortly af- ter entering Barton's room. The'district attorney declines to give Soteldo's so-called ante-mortem state- ment to the pubiic. It is understood that the paper is not strictly an ante- mortem statement ; it consists simply of notes taken by Mr. Perry while Taggart talked with Soteldo, ~ Speak- ing of the statement the district at- torney said: “It is absurd to sk me to give out a man’s ante-mortem statement. It would be violating all the proprie- ties of life for me to do such a thing. The reason that I asked Mr. Perry to 4o there was because I could not allow one of my own - assistants to go on the stand in such a case, That would be manifestly improper.” Gen. Boynton, who has been for many years an associate of Boteldo in newspaper work returned at mid- night from the hospital, where he stood by the death bed, He said: “‘Nobody could make Soteldo believe that he was not going to get well un- til after 10 o'clock to-night, He had been free from pain all day and had regained some feeling in his hands and legs. At about ten minutes past 10 o’clock this evening he himself no- suggested to some one about him that such was the case. He at that time seemed to have unusual difficulty in breathing, but as this passed aftor a few moments the attendants did not think that his suggestion that the end Was near was so true as the next half hour proved. He, however, insisted the firat shot. Corkhill holds tightly on to his notes of his interview with Soteldo just after the shooting, refusing to &ive them for publication until after the inquest. A post mortem examination will be made to-morrow, and when the ball is tound the question as to the shooting will soon .be settled, as the three pistols of Barton and the two Sotel- dos were all of difforent size. Barton expressed sorrow to-night on hearing of the death. W. H. Clements, father-in-law of Soteldo, is in Florida spending the winter. He has been telagraphed, but has not yet responded, the mes- ?"mo having prublbfy failed to reach him, WasHiNaToN, February 12, The autopsy on the remains of A. M. So- teldo was held at 11 a. m. to-day by Dr. J. F. Hartigan, assisted by Drs. Bliss and Sowers, who had attended Soteldo since he was shot. An elab- orate report of the asutopsy in techni- cal phriseology has been made sub- stantially as already told in the nows- papers. The surgeons say, ‘‘aftor traversingthesoft part the ball entered the canal in the course, fracturing the lamina of the fourth vertebrw a little to the left of the spinous process, driving before it several small pieces of specula, and penetrating the dura matter, slightly lacerating the cord and depositing in 1tssubstance a small spectilum of bone, imbedding itself in the intervertebri foramen formed by the fourth and fifth vertebrw,” The report is made to the district attorney and signed by Doctors Bliss, Sowers and Hartigan. The ball weighed 96} grains, a fraction of a grain less than the one taken trom Barton's neck.
