    THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, "WEDNESDAY, ' .FEBRUARY 5, J890.
OALSTEAD WARNED
To
Treat Governor Campbell Fairer
Than He Has Been Doinff.
A CLEAR CASE OP CALL-DOWtf.
Ix-Governor Foraker Closely Catechises His
Successor in Office.
THE FOKGED PAfER AGAIN miHKED,
And Mr. CuapMl Says Ills altered Sljiiatnre is
Poor Imitation.
The testimony of Governor Campbell in
the Ohio ballot box torgery investigation
continues to develop sensational features.
The witness was cross-examined closely yes
terday, by ex-Governor Foraker. To all of
the questions the present Governor had
prompt replies. Governor Campbell serves
notice on Editor Ha! stead that he will have
fairer treatment in the latter's paper in the
future.
"Washingtox, February 4. The special
Hous! committee of the Ohio ballot-box
forgery resumed its inquiry to-day. Gov
ernor Campbell took the stand and con
tinued his testimony, begun yesterday,
taking up his story at the point of the Ger
inantown speech. He read from the Cincin
nati Times-Star a report of Governor
Foraker's Marietta speech in reply, in which
the latter says he knows when he has
brought down game, and that, from Mr.
Campbell's speech, it appeared that the
frame had been shot through the heart Mr.
Halstead had a dozen times reiterated the
statement that he did not intend to use the
paper (exhibit A) until just before the
election. I
Governor Foraker interrupted the wit
ness to say that be had never before seen
this particular report, and it was somewhere
wrong.
Continuing, Governor Campbell said Mr.
Halstead had been forced to admit that he
did not intend to use the paper until just
before election, to explain why he did not
consult with Senator Sherman and others.
Then, too, he hoped it would be too late for
any proof beyond bis (Campbell's) denial
to be produced, and thus defeat his election.
If he believed the paper to be genuine, he
would have published it at once and ended
the campaign. "When witness first saw the
paper, he was unable to account for his signa
ture. He knew he had not written it. It was
too pooi. like the name a boy writes in poke
berry ink with a stick.
"WHAT HE HEAED OF WOOD.
"Witness cot Mr. McLean's denial, and then
learned of Wood's candidacy lor the position
of smoke inspector. He heard that the ap
pointment could not be charged to political
grounds; that Wood was an irresponsiblejman,
and he concluded that he was the forger. He
summoned T. C. Campbell, and he sought for
"Wood, as did the Democratic committee and
others, but he could not be found until after
election. Witness bad charged publicly that
Wood had been paid money to co away, he sus
pected by whom, but did not say. subsequently
he learned that the charge was correct, and
that Wood had been paid money.
"Do you mean money had been paid to Wood
to keep away from arrestT" queried Governor
Foraker.
The witness replied that Wood had eluded
Sursuit and kept oat of the wav. It was only
y a lucky accident that the forgery was dis
covered. He remarked, sarcastically, that he
had read that the Democratic committee at
Hamilton had piid money to keep Wood out of
the way.
Here witness read from the Commercial
Gazette a reDort of an intprrinw with Rnnr.
nor Foraker. charging close relationship be
tween witness and Wood, referring to the wit
ness' position of his (Foraker's) telegrams to
Wood, and his letter of introduction to GoTer
nor Luce. Witness never saw the telegrams
until after the election.
Governor Foraker interrupted to say that ho
gathered the impression from the stenographic
reports of witness' speech that ho han kppti thn
telegrams. The witness read the printed re
ports of his speech to show that Governor
Foraker was in error in his recollection.
Continuing, witness said that L. G. Bernard
had brought to his house Frank Mercer, -who
said he was a friend of Wood's, and was with
him on the nighi of Governor Foraker's Music
Hall speech; that Wood had received many
teleerams from Governor Foraker, and had
supplied him with the ballot box. Witness
never saw the letter, and did not have it. He
had said in his speech that there was snch a
letter, but he had not read it. The reporter
said that he got the copy of the letter printed
in his report of the speech from the Enquirer
office, and learned from Bernard that he had
furnished it
subsequext developments.
HGovernor Foraker asked if witness had taken
steps to correct the mistake, and the witness
replied that he never again referred to Gover
nor Luce. After Wood's arrest, the day he got
out of jail, he received a telephone message
from a Cincinnati drncgist that Wood wanted
to see him, and to come to Hamilton. Witness
thought a witness was desirable at the inter
view, as he had been unlucky in having bis de
nials believed. So he got Colonel jamos F.
Neil, and when Wood came, witness recognized
him as tlio man who bad shown
him a ballot box some two years
before. Witness had no desire to see
Wood, and never intimated any wish to see
him. While Wood was there the telephone
rang, and information came that Wood's bail
had been forfeited, so he left hastily for Cin
cinnati. He supposed Wood held him re
sponsible for his arrest, and came to mollify
him; that was the only explanation of the
visit he could think of. Wood rambled along
for an hour, and referred to the big steel bill
witness had gotten throngh Con cress with a
K.000,000 appropriation in it Witness asked
what in he meant: he believed the man was
crazy. But Wood insisted that witness owned
a gnn patent, and then witness recol
lected that he once did own part of
a small cun patent, which he had forgotten all
about. He asked Wood what that bad to do
with a $8,000,000 bilk Wood replied that that
bill was for steel for this same gun, etc. He
pattered alone; speaking of the "dear Colonel"
letter, and witness' letter to T. C. Campbell.
Witness had never written a letter tnT. r.
Campbell that he was not willing to have pub
lished. It looked as if Wood was trying to
make believe that he knew something of wit
ness' connection with a gun contract.
TIBED OF BEING HOUNDED.
Continuing, witness said it had been repeated
900 times in the Commercial Gazette that there
was a J 1,000.000 steal in the ballot-box bill. It
began four days after the retraction; when Mr.
Halstead recovered his wind, and had been
kept up till last Saturday. It was nonsense, as
any one could see from a reading of the bill;
but Mr. Halstead would keeD it np for all time,
regardless of testimony or anytnlns else. The
witness read some of the Commercial Gazette
editorials, stonnine to clear his thrn.it with th
remark: "It makes my throat verv dry to read
this kind of stuff." After reading awhile,
he said It was fair to show what
the bill said, and, returning to that document,
he read the first section, authorizing the Attor
ney General to contract for the boxes at 825
each. He referred to Hadden's testimony
sneaking of another contract, and denied that
he had signed any paper relating to ballot
boxes: the other gentlemen named must unload
for themselves. There had been no effort to
pass th bill, or even get it before a committee:
it bad been completely dropped. He had tele
graphed to T. C. Campbell and John McLean to
know is there were any papers. The
insinuation was that there was a
paper bearing his name, which he
wanted to see before be denied the charge.
That was a falsehood. This as not true, and
his counsel had consented to Probasco's request
to nave Wood arrested. A. W. Thurman had
telegraphed witness October 23 to do nothing
about the Wood matter at present, that he
would write. So witness had telegraphed Pro
basco to defer the arrest, but it was too late, as
Wood had already been arrested.
PBETENTED A MISTAKE.
Witness read the letter from Allen Thurman,
saying that he had telegraphed as he did be
cause be beard they -would arrest Halstead,
which would be a mistake, after he had
published the retraction, as that complicated
the case badly. That was all there was in the
story of his attempt to shield Wood.
Referring to the story that the committee
had suddenly adjourned for two weeks because
it had discovered something very unpleasant,
and the lid was closed on the boiling pot, and
further, that Mr. Grosvenor, his counsel, bad
hastily gone to Ohio to consult him, the witness
said that he challenged inquiry, and denied
that lr. Grosvenor was his counsel, or that he
had seen him since last summer, until he got
here. He served notice now that be was going
to have a little fairer treatment f rom-tf alstead
and his paper than he had had before. There
was a limit to human endurance.
Mr. Turner asked about the 8,000,000 appro-
it
prlation bill. Witness read from the patent
specifications to show that bis gun would not
answer the requirements. Mr. Halstead had
all of thsse facts before him, and yet he in
sisted on the insinuations. The Chief of En
gineers also pronounced his gun to be worth
less, in which sentiment he (witness) heartly
concurred.
The Chairman here exhibited the forged pa
per, and asked if witness knew anything of it
that would aid the committee in its inquiry as
to its authorship. He replied that it was evi
dent from inspection that the paper was a for
gery; bnt he knew nothing direct about its
ori inn
Mr. Cogswell said he was under the impres
sion that witness had discovered that Wood
was a man of bad character as soon as he be
lieved him to be the forger. The witness re
plied that many facts came to his knowledge
that Wood was a low follow: the Committee of
One Hundred had protested to Mayor Mosby
against his appointment.
COST OP THE BOXES.
In answer to Chairman Mason, witness said
the ballot-box bill closely described the Wood
box. The bill authorized the Attorney General
to purchase the boxes at 23 or less, bat not
more. He had never heard that any of the
other persons whose names appeared on the
forged paper were interested in the ballot box
bill until he saw the Commercial Gazette publi
cation. He referred to a publication in that
family paper that he had called upon the Presi
dent, and urged him to get the Mills bill ont of
the way in order that he might get his ballot
box bill through Congress. It was-needless for
him to comment upon that to a Congressional
committee. Ho had never heard that Mr.
Grosvenor was interested in the ballot-box bill.
To Governor Foraker, witness said that
Campbell had talked about bis bill, and bo
either bad. or witness procured for him, a copy
of a Senate bilL Witness told him he must re
strict the price of the box, as he could not in
troduce a bill without the maximum price be
ing fixed, ui course, ne understood tnat tne
bill commanded positively the Attorney Gen
eral to buy but one box for each district, and
that box was described a patent box. He did
understand, however, that the Attorney Gen
eral cnnld pay the 25. but not more, for the
box. He did not understand that the Attorney
General must pay $25 if the company refused
to sell for less.
Governor Foraker wished to know if witness
believed that the Attorney General was com
pelled to pay $25 if the patentees refused to sell
atalowerfiguie. Ho replied that he did not
so believe; the Attorney General had an op
tion. Governor Foraker replied that some people
were simple-minded enough to believe that the
bill permitted the company to fix the price of
the box within $25.
Mr. Cogs ell remarked that the bill would
speak for itself.
AN UNKNOWN FBIE1TD.
Governor Foraker read from witness' speech
an extract, wherein he speaks of atelegram re
ceived from Morton Hawkins, a reporter of the
Cincinnati JPost, calling for a public refutation
of the ballot-box trust charge, and speaking of
a warm personal friend who had said he could
vindicate him with a document that had been
sent for. Witness said that he had read that
telegram. Mr. Hawkins was now Adjutant
General of Ohio. He had no idea who the
"personal friend" was.
Witness confessed he was at sea at first to
know what the document (Exhibit A) or a
signature, or whatever it was, was. If he had
seen the paper he could have said at once it
was a forgery. He had seen the published fac
simile in the newspaper, but there were various
reasons why he did not make a specific denial
that he had signed the paper, one of which was
inline aid noi want to scare on wood, lor
whom he was having search made.
Governor Foraker remarked that the testi
mony show ed that Wood did not leave Cincin
nati until October 8. Witness replied that be
could not find blm. Mercer had told him that
Wood had been bidine in Covington. Witness
knew of no document that he had been wait
ing for which would vindicate him.
Adjourned till to-morrow.

Broadcloths.
50-inch Imported Goods at $1,

the colors are choice.
One case 1 6-inch Silk Plushes at
25c; just half price, but they are
all Terra Cotta shades and they'll
go quick at a quarter.
27-inch Black Silk Costume Vel

trimming if you wish) at $2 50 and
$y, too many of these fine goods
and the "surplus must be reduced:"
the Velvet and Plush Shelves must
be emptied to a great extent to
make room for the New India and
Wash Silks, of which we open 200

tinctness of style, quality, and
coupled with our usual low prices.
are worth your attention. Fashion
predicts a large demand for the
new Wash striped India Silks and
Surahs, and deservedly so, as these
goods are very stylish; others beau
tiful in their elegant simplicity.
Some $12 50 Paris Silk Novel
ties marked down to $, and some
other lots of choice ones at $1,
$1 50, $2, $3 and $4.

One case Black Silk Surahs at
50c.
24-inch Black Silk Surahs at
prices, for fine goods, that are
much less than you can buy them
for in April or May. Elect for
yourself whether this is a good in
vestment or not. We invested in
several thousand yards, because of
the great bargain, and we propose
turning them out at such prices as
will make a stir this week at the
SILK DEPARTMENT.
Fine, elegant 24-inch Black Surahs
will do it, and the bargain Black
Silks shall assist if prices and qual
ity will accomplish it They have
never failed to do so with us in the
past 20 years, and we know they
won't now.
The complexion of the Dry
Goods business, so fashion says, is
"Scotch;" it has been quite "Eng
lish, you know," for some time.
We open to-day some advance
styles of Dress Goods and Suitings
that are French, German, Scotch
and English, our own direct im
portations, and one particular lot
that are so-inch Scotch Cheviot
Stripes, made in America, and
when they are made here we be
lieve in saying so. The remarkable
part of it is 50-inch wide at 50c,
new and stylish; if they had come
across the water or had a foreign
ticket on they would sell at $1 25,
and there will be goods sold this
season at $1 25 and $1 50 that
have no more style and possess no
more merit than these" do. If you
prefer the 1 to 3 kind they will
be here, and some are opening to
day.
The Cloak Room Bargains no,
not that sacrifices that are selling
hundreds of fine garments daily,
tnis week is to be efiective in clear
ing the Cloak Room.
Several hundred pieces new
Zephyr Ginghams, Anderson's cel
ebrated, and the choicest yet
shown; and the 4-4 American and
Scotch Zephyrs, that are great
rivals of Anderson's, at 25c; 500
pieces of these for selection.
Our particular 3-4 Zephyr Ging
ham, extra fine, at 15c, gotten up
expressly for Misses' and Children's
Dresses, is the greatest Gingham
