Sayer at the rooms of Mrs. Ingalls on Nine- teenth and Teavenworth streets in com- pany with Jailer Bennett, but he is as silent as the grave as to the number of times that he went there alone and unattended by an official. When ques- tioned with reference to this diserepency in the afidavit he refused to talk, only to say that the charge made against himself and the Bennett family was a ife. Sheriff Bennett and nis interesting brother, who has been allowed to carry the keys of the jail, observe a clamlike silence and refuse to discuss the matter, more thao to say that they have been misropre- sented. They admit that Mosher has been iven some privileges not_accorded to other nited States prisoners, bnt_justify by say- ing that these were granted upon the ex- plicit orders of Marshal White. Here is where the sheriff has put his foot in 1t, for the marshal states most positively that Mr. Beenett's Justification lacks thoe very foundatio 1, a8 his instructions have always been to treat Mosner the same as the other United States prisoners in the county jail. In discussing the matter yesterday the marshal said: “On July 9, when I turned Mosher over to Bennett, 1 grauted no author- ity to allow him to runat large or about town. 1 told Bennett that if Mosher wanted 1o take his meals outside of the county jail, that occasionally he might be taken to the Hopkins rvestaurant at the coroer of Seventeenth and Farnam streets, but that he should not be taken there only at rare intervals. At that time it was understood by Bennett that Mosher was not to go out- side of the jail unless accompanied by my- self or Deputy Coggswell, and if Bennett has allowed him to go with any other person or persons he has exceeded his authority. “Mr. Cogeswell has taken Mosher out four times and_no other deputy has ever been with him for a single minute since he was turned over to the sheriff of Douglas county, 80 if this man has been outside of the jail at times other than those mentioned, it has been without my knowledga, consent or sanc- tion." With reference to Mosher having been to road houses with a deputy marshal during the month of June there was a mistake somewhere. The marshal said that he had made inquiries of his depaties and that the all denied having made the trip. But if Mosher had seen fit to have gone to such places during that period time, he would have been at perfect tiberty, as he was out on bonds aud as long as the bonds were not forfeited, he could go and come as ho pleased, Diseussing this subject farther Mr. White said that Mosher was released on bonds on May 80 and was not ‘taken into custody again until July 8, the day upon whizh he was sentenced When asked if it wi the custom of sheriffs to give a United States prisoner the best room in the county jail,"Mr. White expressod the opinion that all prisoners were to be treated alike. for in a prison, one mian was considered as good as another: Indians and Soldie > jail were pluced i the cel zulation jail bunks at night und there was no reason why Mogher should be singled out and given luxarient private aparuments, During the day a call was made at the In- galls residence on 1 nworth street, the temporary home of Nellic Sayer, Mosher's mash, .but the young woman was not “:at home" to newspaper men. Mrs. Ingalls, the woman who operates the flats was enjoying the most blissful ignorance and did not Know a person on earth, with the bare ex- ception of Miss Sayerjand all that she knew about her was that she was out and that there was no telling when she would return. She had seen the reports in the papers, but did not know whether they were trua or fulse. GENERAL VAN WYCK TALKS. President Cleveland and Congress Critloised by the Ex-Senator. General Charles B.

Speaking of the present session of congress ana probable results thereof he said: “Idonot think that the Sherman law will berepeated unconditionally. 1am con- fident that the filibustering of the silverites will rgsult in a compromise of some character.

It would precipitate such a financial crash in this country that tha people would soon shout for a change and wreak summary veugeuance, politically, upon Cleveland and the men Who now favor unconditional repeal. “Grover Cleveland is a dead political duck anyway. ‘He has accomplished but one thing during his present administration—namely, t0 increase the rate of interest and decrease the wages of labor. He hus endeavored to change the financial policy of this country and healso seeks to tinker with the tarift policy.

If Cleveland is nomnated by the democrats, to be their standurd bearer again, he be ‘snowed under’ at the polls. “1 seo that Judge Maxwell was turned down,” continued General Van Wyck with evident regret. *“Ihat wus a greal mistake. It is to be regrerted on general principles and especially in view of the fact that he ‘was sacrificed because he was the fearless champion of the people’s interests and would not wear a corporation collar.

Proceedings of tiie Senate. ‘While the recess of the senate expired at this morning, it was fifteen minutes o any business was transacied, us the I to mako a quorum did not appear until 10:45 a, m, After soma routine business, Mr. Stewart of Nevada resumed mis speech against the repeal bill. He said that he had found thav wherg the slavery agitation was most vio- lent the human intelle® was most active, and that in Kansas and Missouri there was a much higher average of intelligence and a broader grasp of public questions than in any other part of the -country. With this preface Mr. Stewart read a letter from gentleman in Missouri sustaining his side of the silver question. My, Stewart then directed himself to what he called the charges that those who op- posed the pending bill were thwarting the will of the majority. This he aewed. Who were the filibusters? he asked. The ad- ministration had filibustered for twenty-five years against_legislation allowing the will of the majority to be expressed. It had used the most corrupt, the most agzressive, the most outrageous means, secret at fivst, public now, to enslave the majority. Let the aaministration take off its hands and let the majority express itself in the senate, said Mr, Stewart, “and we have nearly two o one.” . “The absence of a_quornm was suggested by Mr. Power. A roll call develoved a quorum, and Mr. Kyle of South Dakota then moved that when the senate adjourned it bo to meet ut 12 o’clock tomorrow. By 12 yeas and 41 nays the motion was lost., ‘The senate bill authorizing the Chatta- ncoga Western Railway eompany to con- struct a bridge across the Tennessee river was taken from the calendar. Mr. Stewart then resumed, and at 1:30, without conclud- ing his speech, yielded the floor to Mr. Jones of Nevada, who resumed his argument aguiust the repeal bill. He said he desired a dollar that kept at a parity witha pound of cotton or a bushel of wheat, and not with ametal that was constantly increasing in lue. A dollar which mcreased n ue made the rich richer and the poor poorer, whereas 1f the dollar decreased in value the slightest, there would be a day of jubileo to the overburdened debtor. Mr. McPherson, democrat, of New Jersey thought if gold appreciated, interest would have gone up and labor have gone down, whereas in the past ten or fifteen years the United States bonds had fallen from 5 to 20 per cent, while labor had gone up in regu- farly increasing ratios. If gold had gone up, alleged, Mr. McPherson expressed his inability to understand how a country on a gold basis could stahd those connectious. Mr. Jounes replied he had shown to the satisfaction of every man that listened to him that one of the highest proofs of an in- creuse of the value of money of any kind, especially in 4 new ‘country, was decline in the.rates cf inter If ‘money were in- creasing in purcha: power, in its com- manc oyer land and over the production of labor everywnere and if prices were falling, who wanted to enter any business? When money was increasing in 'value and. prices were falling, money congested in the cen- tors there was no demand for icin real legitimate business enterprises. The result was a tremendous contest and competition to get hold of gilt-edged securities. Discussing. the relative merits of national and international money, Mr. Jones asserted that with the latter there would be con- stant oscillation between ‘adversity and prosperity, according as money was sent abroad or was received from abroad there would be contraction or inflation. This was to t2 averted by a money purely national, He denied the truth of the statement that the free coinage of silver would p ace the United States ou a basis with Mc xico and India. It was the standard of blood and not the standard of money that madea dif- fererce, not only between tnis country and Mexico and India, but between this country and all countries on the face of the earth. It bad been said the silver dotlar would find its way immediately into the pocket of the laboring man. He would be glad if it did. Certainly the gold dollar never did. it found 1ts way into Wall street. he laborer had made no objection to the silver dollar, and no petition had come from the laboring classes asking the repeal of the silver act of 1500, Mr. Jones expressed his regret that the public gress should be so ntolerant of those who were trying to do their dutyas they saw fit, and that astempts should have been made by influences outside of the senate Lo raiiroad legislation through the senate, Without attempting to criticise any of those who favored repeal he had never heard one of them give a reason why they wanted the purchasing clause repealed. Mr. Jones at 4 o'clock said there was no de- sire among those on hus side of the question 10 consume time unnecessarily, but as he was tired he would yield the floor and allow his colleague, Mr. Stewart, to resume his speech, and he would ask the indulgence of the senate to proceed at some other time, Mr. Faulkuer, being satisfied that the re- marks of Mr. Jones correctly stated the position of the opponents of the bill, moved that the senate take a recess until 10 o'clock tomorrow, which was done, REPEALERS IN THE HOUSE, They Wil Support the Voorhees Bii as Yreseuted from the Senate, WasuNaroy, Oct. 24.—1'he democratic re- pealers of the house met this morniug in the rooms of the committée on naval affairs, Twenty-three members were present. Among them were Messrs, Harter, Bynum, Outhwaite, Brown, Hall of Minnesota, Cobb of Missouri, Tracy, Dunphy, Patterson, Barwig and Buckner and others who bad interested themselves in repeal. The mect- ing was called when 1t was practically understood that the democratic compromise was to be put through the senate and the unconditional repeal men of the house de- sired to consult as to what policy they should pursue. Toeifact that conditional ve. peal was repudiated yesterday by the ad- ministration left the meeting without neces- sity for action. There was o discussion of the situation in the senate and the methods the fricnds of repeal should take when the repual bili came oyer from the senate. But uo action by the conference wus considered advisable at this tiwe, and 1t adjourned, to meet at the call of the chairmar Think Favorably of It, There is a disposivon among the repeal democrals in the house to concur with the amendments of the Wilson billif it comes over in the shupe that is now kuown as the Voorhees bill.

ARl some of the repealers even now are anxious about A quorum when the bill comes ovop from the senate. Tho difference of opinion over recess or adjoura- ment involves the question of mileage Members have already received their mile- age for the extra session and they think that if an adjournment should be taken now they would aealn be entitiod to mileage for the regulan session, whilo a re- cess und & meeting of this session a few days before the regular session would prevent mileage being allowed. Others think it would make no difference, and that mileago for both scssions must be allowed. 1t is one of the influences that is at work to hurry up an aajournment. Mr. Oates, inthe charge of the bankruptey bill, says that he is willing congress should adjourn, as the bill will come up the first thing at the regular session Charrman Wilson of the ways and means committee says adjournment ought to fol- low, and the ‘committee would be glad if such action is taken, as it could work to bet- ter ndvantage. ‘Thore scoms to be a general desire among the mémbers of the house to get away, and the news that the senate would vote seemod to b a_relief, even to those who are pronounced silver men. IN THE HOUSE. of the Bankruptey Bi)I Res Avaly Debate.

The amendment was made necessary by a decision rendered when the Atlantic liners Paris and New York were aamitted to American registry.
