There was some prospect, however, of being able to float the bonds 1n London. Meanwhile the work of bullding the road would go on. The completion of the road would establish competitive freight rates, and without these the people of Manitoba cannot hove to thrive. In case the injunction suits now pending are decided against Manitoba's right to bulld the road, Mr. Norquay said the matter would not be' dropped. An appeal would be taken to the privy council in Eng- land, praying that the Dominion govern- ment be prevented from restraining Mani- tobs in the exercise of the right to build railroads enjoyed by other Canadian prov- Inces.

HUNTINGTON AS A WITNESS, ° His Prepared Testimony Given in & MannerShowing Careful Rehears sal—How Senators Were “Switched.” The Pacific Inves! NEW Yonk, Sept. 21, road commission resumed its examination this morning. Mr. Colien, In answer to re- quests for vouchers as to large disbursements made by Huntington, stated that Governor Stanford had refused to forward them, as the commission had already a great many Im- pertant documents of the company which 1t had failed to return, He did not propose to Intrust any more such papers with the com- mission. Huntington was particularly ques- tioned with reference to these vauchers, which bore his signature and appear to be tor “legal services and exvense account.” It all happened so long ago that the witness could not remember how exactly, This money was not used for any but a legal and Proper purpose. Mr. Anderson asked the witness if he thought it proper to use this money in pay= ment of large fees to members of congress at the time that bills ot great pecuniary interest to the Central Pacitic company wero pending and before the said members had voted thereon. Witness answered: *I should hositate be- fore paying such fee. Of course when we wanted legal advico—and we required it often—we always wanted tbe-best.” Hunt- ington said that between and the pres- ent time there had been many bills in con= gress affecting the Central Pacific company, and it was necessary to collect agreat deal of information regarding the road for the infors mation of members of congress, and this cost a great deal of money. Lt was the custom to relain and employ men to approach congress- men and explain to them just how matters stood, One man could not sce all these legis- Iators, and it was necessary for a great many to act. Witness said it s lively times fol the Central Pacific while Tom Scoit’s project was before congress. Witness wrote a great many letters to D. R. Colton at this time. Ha understood they had been stolen from a sals in San Francisco. Four agents of Colton'd administration had tried to sell themn to wite ness, but he declined to buy. o commissioners produced coples of these letters with names omitted, being en« joined in San Francisco by the Cential Pas cific from producing the names and orlxinals Witness declined to fiil the blank in one let ter in which he characterized a California CONIessinan as a ~d hog."” In al he said Scott had “switched” certain tors to his side, but that they could be “switched back.” This be explained meant they could be brought back to the Union Pacific’s side by proper argument, Mr, Huntington was eetting excited and ex« claimed frantically: *1 never wrote a_lettog that 1 would not be willing to have published to the world and posted on every bulletin, I never used money to influence congress« men. 1t would be strange if amonc four hundred there should not be some corrupt men.” Mr. Huntington said e did nos think Scott ever paid or offered to pay fue the votes of members of congress. As toh.g statement in another letter that the coins mits on railroads of the llouse was fixed uj for Scott, the witness said: “I don’t uunq anybody was bought with money.” Here began to get —angry- with the suggestions in Anderson’s inter- rogatories that there was something venal in the language of nis letters and he proceeded to nake an tmpassioned speech. 0 sAld: “A lot of thin skinned pohiticians are alwa)s ready to place a wrong construction on my language and I see that it has even dis- turbed this commission.” Commissioner Anderson—"These letters are produced to ascertain if any of the money represented by these unexplained vouchers was used to purchase legislation. Mr. Hunington—1 can say positively that it was. It was decided that he should submit some scheme tor settling the affairs of the rvad and goveinment at Friday’s session.
