He rented an island in the lower Potomac. Here he erected n house of entertainment with government material and with stolen funds, His guests suiled and feasted and had royal times in his sceluded retreat Latera fixed company was selected and organized into a club, under the pe- culiar title already given, and the yacht beeame its headquarters. i under the auspices of No v well-known photo-lithographer, though Howgate was one of the sctive working members The *“Tipity Witchity” club as organ- ized consisted of twenty members, It is certain that only a portion of this num- her were aillowed to know its 1 object, This was nothing more nor less than to smooth the for heavy and continued approj s ngress, and to se- cure intluenee and hold ns much as possible of the government business, which amounts annunally to about $500,000. 1t is quite as certain that enongh were in the secrets of the manipulators to make the venture w sure one. ‘T'he sup- port of the venal ones doubtless for revenue only. The stance of the others when needed, especially as all ap- provriations asked for could be urged on plausible grounds, followed as a matter of course Trom their having been the con- tinued recipients of the almost royal en tertainments of Howgate or of Pete The elub was made up with skill. There were men above reproach, whose stand- ing in one or the other house of congress vus and always hns been unquestioned > were the selected and unconseious shields for the huge scheme which thoy were used to mnke respectable and ad vungs nid that the strictly honorable section of the club were not regular at- tendants with those who were in for busi- ness. The former class was only taken often enough to enforce i of obli- mation. In this respect 11 others, there was the mostcunning management. The discovery and flight of Howgate cuused a general sensation among all the members and dire consternation among the revenue members. When he was out of the hands of the law through hs well-planned escade, reliof eame to his contidential friends in the “Tipity Witch- cl_{ community.”” When the influences are sought that still conceal and protect Howgate, a study of the history of this club should not be neglected. "1t sailed the Potomac and the Chesapeake, and it ted and rested in the shades of this river island. It consted to New York. It entertained such congressmen as the managers thonght would strengthen its forces and advance its schem It dined frequently in the nd its floral displays and its table luxuries were the wonder of all who were invited to the feasts. For a time it reveled in prosperity, and those who have recently come to know its organiza- tion and the hold it se d on congress- men no longer wonder at the ease with which those who organized it long since secured o practical monopoly of the vast government work of the class they were ent office, with its great work, 1 hands, and there has been suf- ent influence to practically shut out from competition nearly all the tirms of the country capnble of doing this very lucrative work vgate was in charge of the signal service and its printing of maps and other charts there was an immense profit. The degree of monopoly now se- »ffects the same result, and though club is no longer an active organiza- tion, its re m'mu:(; members still enjoy excursions and dinuers at the hands of those who haye so richly profited and who still profit most generously from this monopoly. A vlulum; at the mambershit: of this ther light on the subject is partially diseussed above.
