Thur-. | er, president of the Export Association, | the witness who has been wanted by the Committee on Cuban Relations, was be- fore the committee to-day. Senator Teller produced a copy of a voucher for $2880, showing that that sum had been paid by the military government of Cuba by authority of Governor Wood to the United States Exporters’ Association, of which Mr. Thurber is president, Thurber acknowledged that he had re- ceived the amount and said it was one of three payments he had received from the same sSource. The receipt was dated April 2, 1802, and states that it was for “‘advocating a reduction in the duties on Cuban products with a reciprocal re- duction on United States products going into Cuba.” The witness said he thought $20,000 | 'worth of literature had been circulated.

AT ROOT’S INSTANCE. The witness said he had sent out a large number of circulars in the interest of a reduction of the duty on Cuban | sugar, and he submitted specimens of some of them. Being asked by Teller who paid the expense incident to the circulation of this literature, the witness replied that the Cuban comimittee had | paid the larger part of it and that mem- | bers of the association had paid part of it. He said he had been in the employ of the Cuban Government for some time in the summer and fall of 1901 in con- nection with the preparation of a Cuban tariff, his employment being at the instance of Secretary Root. In reply to questions Thurber said that the money referred to had all come | through the Cuban committee, but Sena- tor Teller insisted that the voucher which he had produced could not have emanated from the Cuban committee. Thurber then said that all was done at 2 Sharp. through an understanding that the Ex- SHRINERS!

THE WEEKLY CALL he had a list of 8000 people in the United States who ‘‘represent something” whom this literature was sent. In reply to a question by Teller as to whether he had consulted Mr. Havemeyer | of the sugar trust in the preparation of the literature, Thurber said: ‘“After making my argument before the and Means Committee I told Mr. emeyer that I had been asked if I Wwas representing him and asked him for | 2 subscription. He gave me a check to- ward meeting our expenses.” RECEIPTS IN EVIDENCE. Senator Culberson of Texas to-day in- trcduced the following resolution: Resolved, That the Secretary of War be and he is hereby directed to hand to the Sen- ate & full itemized statement of all money collected and disbursed by the authorities of the United States in Cuba for military oocu- pation thereof until May 20, 1902. Senator Platt. of Connecticut objected to the present consideration and the reso- lution went over until to-morrow. ¥ollowing is a copy of the receipts which Teller submitted as having been given by Thurber to the Cuban Govern- ment and which the witness admitted to be genuine: Form 8, Voucher No. 31, Abstract B, account of month of April, 1902, N YORK.

Pennypacker of Philadelphia was nominated for Governor over Attorney Gen- eral John P, Elkin of Indiana by to-day’s Republican State convention by a vote of 208 to 152. Senator Quay was unanimously chosen chairman of the Re- publican State Committee by a suspen- sion of the rules requiring the chairman to be chosen by the nominees and the pre- siding officers of the convention, and he will conduct the campaign for the State ticket. During the proceedings Senator been rendered by him and that all had been paid. Thurber, at the outset of his testimony, in response to questions by Senator Platt, sajd that he had not tried to avoid ap- pearing before the committee, stating that he had been absent from his home most of the time since the receipt of ‘his first summons to appear. Professor H., W. Wiley, chief of the chemistry division of the Agricultural De- partment, followed Thurber on the stand. His testimony was devoted to an exposi- tion of the European Kkartel bounty on sugar, which he contended had been the catse of the entire reduction in the price of sugar which had taken place through- out the world in the last two years. Quot- ing the .price of beet sugar at Hamburg for June, 1900, he showed that it ha fallen since 52 per cent. He said the a n in sugar is world-wide and ad- vocats the meeting of this European duty with a similar duty by the United States. On,this point he sald, among other things: “Since England is the greatest consumer of bounty-fed sugar among the nations of the earth and the United States the sec- ond, it is evident that if these two coun- tries should join in countervailing not only official but kartel bounties instant prosperity would at once come to the sugar growers of the whole world.” The testimony given by Thurber, show- ing that between $3000 and $9000 had been paid out of the Cuban treasury under the direction of Governor General Wood for the promotion of the effort to secure re- ciprocity between the United States and Cuba, caused a sensation in the Senate to-day. The news of Thurber's statement reached the Senate chamber about the time that body had convened, and when the pot to make it boil. g::ts of the body. comes exceedingl SSS CATARRH The treatment of Catarrh with antiseptic and astringent washes, lotions, salves, medicated tobacco and cigarettes or any external or local application, is just as senseless as would be kindling a fire on top of Tr_'ue, these give temporary | relief, but the cavities and passages of the head and the bronchial tubes soon fill up again with mucus. Taking cold is the first step towards Catarrh, for it checks perspiration, and the poisonous acids and vapors which should pass off through the skin, are thrown back upon the mucous membrane or inner skin, g producing inflammation and excessive flow of mucus, much of which is absorbed into the blood, and through reaches every part of the system, involving the Stomach, Kidneys and other When the disease assumes the dry form, the breath foul, blinding headaches are frequent, the eyes red, hearing affected and a constant ringing in the ears.

VICTORY FOR QUAY. Pennypacker's nomination is a personal victery for Senator Quay. Elkin was for- merly one of Quay's chief Iljeutenants, and when he became a candidate it was thought he was the Senator’s choice. After delegates friendly to Elkin had been elected in several counties Quay advised against the Attorney General's candidacy in the interest of party harmony. Elkin declined to withdraw. Quay then made a public declaration against his candldacy, and when Pennypacker was suggested for the nomination the Senator tacitly indorsed him. Elkin was backed by Governor Stone and other members of the State administration. Quay as- sumed direction of Pennypacker’'s cam- aign, and from the start predicted that lkin would not be nominated.

Hill was to-day renominated by acclamation for a second term by the Republican State convention. Secretary of the Treasury Shaw was presented and made an address, in which he discussed the tariff reform and the alleged cruel- ties in the Philippines as a possible issue | in the coming campaign. | Senator Teller, whose examination had | developed the facts, made his appearance on the floor he was immediately surround- ed by Senators from both sides of the chamber, who professed great anxiety to krow all that had occurred. Coples of the one voucher produced were eagerly scught, and the demand was not satisfled until forty or fifty copies had been type- written and circulated in the Senate chamber. Much interest was also mani- fested on the part of the members of the House and some of the beet sugar advo- cates of that body pointed out that Thur- ber had not in his testimony before the Ways and Means Committee indicated any connection with the Cuban Govern- ment in his effort to create sentiment in this country favorable to concessions to ° Cuba. Opinions as to the ultimate effect of the testimony are as varied as_the predilections and prejudices of the Sen-| ate, but the immediate resuits are seen in the decision reached during the afternoon to have two caucuses in the early future. The first of these will be held by the beet sugar Republican Senators to-morrow and the second by all the Republican Senators Friday or Saturday. Senator Burrows is responsible for the statement that the beet sugar men will meet, and Senator Aldrich for the an- nouncement that there will be a general conference before the close of the week. The purpose of the meeting of the best sugar men is fo consider the situation as affected by to-day's developments and also to receive a report from the commit- tee, consisting of Senators Elkins, Bur- rows and Jones of Nevada, appointed to confer with the Republican members of the Cuban Committee. This committee will state that the Cuban Committee has declined to consider all propositions look- ing to a compromise which have been made, and it probably will ask to be discharged. The propositions that have been made are two—the first for a re- bate and the second for a commercial treaty with Cuba. MAY CHECK REDUCTION. The committee will say that both plans were rejected, and that the members of the Cuban Committee would not change their position that there must be a straight reduction of 20 per cent without any conditions except that the President might have power to revoke the conces- sion in case he found that the Cuban planters were not getting the benefit of it. The full conference will be in the nature of a caucus, and some of the beet sugar men say they will enter it only with the understanding that they shall not be bound by any conclusion that may be reached. The advocates of a tariff re- duc%lon say that no action by a Republi- can Senatorial caucus is binding, but they add that defections have occurred only in rare instances. Senator Aldrich expresses confidence in being able to secure fully forty-five Re- publican votes in favor of any bill that may be reported by the Cuban Commit- tee. This is.a majority of the Senate, and the friends of reduction express themselves as hopeful of passing a bill satisfactory to them. They say the tes- timony of Thurber does not affect the merits of the question in the least, and they contend that, admitting that the course of the Cuban Government was censurable, it cannot and should not pre- vent the Government of the United States doing what it has promised to do and what it is right to do. They do not, how- ever, admit that the course was improper. The beet sugar Senators undeniably are more hopeful than they have been here- tofore. Some of them profess to believe that the revelation will have the effect of at least causing a halt in the p - ings In the interest of reciprocity. that way. ) JOE ROSENBERG. et MO s 2N BARGAIN V.
