The hearing of the bribery investigators last night was just what had beea expected. Two of the accused cntorcd a goueral denial. They were Spatz and Costcllo, the latter driving fifteen miles in a blizzard to see Representative Bugler, Neither of the accused men cared to give any reason why reputable and well-to-do men, members of the House, should go on tho stand and swear a crime against them. Tho Spatz testimony was corroborative of that given by tho threo Northampton Rcpre sentativos iu all essential details, except as to tho oiler of money, and the committee and the public will bo left to form their own judgment as to which had the stronger mo tive for lying. Spatz's statement, as was de veloped, was prepared in advanco Ho was nervous and worried on the stand. The namo of Representative Yates, who dosertcrl Quay last week, was brought Into tho scandal by Costello, the latter alleging that ates told him that he was playing a double part in the senatorial contest and that he was promised by Senator Martin that he would make him a magistrate In Philadelphia If he would do as he told him. Yates also said he was voting for "the old man," but be was likely to bo called off at any time. Ex-Senator Coyle, formerly of Schuylkill county, who, too, is accused of carrying tho bag on the McCarrell bill, was subpoenaed, and sat in the audience bolstered by Attor neys Gilbert, Dctweiler and Kunkol.

The bribery committee met In the house chamber last evening to hear testimony on tho charges of alleged bribery In connection with the consideration of the McCarrell Jury bill in the house.

Gilbert, Mende D, Detweller nnd George Kunkol, of Har rlsburg. General William II. Koontz, of Somerset, who offered the resolution creating tint committee, was absent- Itepresentative Sylvester S. Smith, ot Cameron, wns the first witness called. ue asKep; permission to give tils ev)- donee without naming the party con cerned, but if the party should bo prose cuted bo would come forward nml givo his testimony. Mr. Smith, said ho was not offered any money or corruptly ap proached on the bill, lie was approach ed by n person, and wns so vexed with the proposition that he left the person and wrqte him n note declining an Invi tation to, dinner the next day, Mr. Smith testified that be went Intq U room In the cnpitol and was approach ed by j party, who asked him to help out with the McCarrell bjll. Just at that second the door opened, and he left tho rcom. Tho party who spoke to the Cam eron member said there wns "two nnd n half" in it. Mr. itnndall suggested to Mr. Smith that for his own sake, ami for all, he ought to tell .the commltteo the name. Mr. Smith replied that he would like to be excused for the presenr. ami if the party should bo implicated In. any way he would come forward to give the nnme. Mr. Smith was excuse, Representative Charles B. Spatz, of Berks, testified that he had rooms at the Lochlel hotel from the beginning of the session until three weeks, ago. A motion was adopted that Mr. Spatz be allowed to make a statement before bo wns examined. The Herks member said that he engaged a room at the Lochlel hotel two weeks before the opening of the session. He was a Democratic can didate for speaker, and wanted to have headquarters near the state Democratic headquarters, ile withdrew before the meeting of the legislature, in tl)e Inter est of Mr, Creasy, of Columbia. After tho failure of the fusion movement be tween tho Democrats and independent Republicans he decidede to stand by a Democrat for United States senator. He learned that a petition wns being cir culated for a fusion between the Demo crats nnd Independent Republicans on the' senatorshlp, and prepared a petition of his own, pledging the Democrats to stand by their caucus nominee, no thought he saw an inclination on the part of Representatives Miller and Johnston, of Northampton, and ho in vited them to go with him to Martin Trawler's room, where there was pen and ink. On the way there Mr. Spatz may have said tliore was something In it for them, but ho did not mean money. lie thought a Democrat would be ejected senator, and if such wns the case th signers of the paper would be tho "chosen few ' and they would be favor ed with patronage. At no time did ho offer any one money to sign the paper, When naked If he was offered any re ward for himself or for any member of Ills family if he would vote for the Mc Carrell bill Mr. Spatz replied: "No, sir: I voted for tho bill because I thought it was a good Democratic measure." "Do you know any reason why Messr-i. Hell, Johnston nnd Miller should say you offered them money to sign this paper or vote for the MeOnrrell bill?" "I do not." Mr, Spatz said he destroyed the orig inal papor because his name wns to it. and he was ashamed of the poor success of the movement. At no time did Mr. Coyle assist the witness to obtain sign ers to the paper. Itepresentative John Q. Ilersch. of Montgomery, testified that the day tho bill wns under consideration in the house he was called out to tho rotunda by Mr. RoMnlxrry and told that he had a petition asking him to sign the bill, ne did not offer any Inducement to sup port the bill, but Mlit: "The saying was that there wan something In it to support the bill, but he had not seen any yet." tie iKosenncrry) did not show Sir. Ilersch the petition until last week. Mr, llosenberry laughingly naked his col league the day on which the bill was postponed If some one would offer him $&0 to vote to reconsider tho bill If he would do so, and Mr. Ilersch replied that lie would not. Mr. Costello testified thnt he came to Harrlsburg I'eb. S, iu the Interest of n brother In Willtainsport, who Is charged" witu conspiracy in the Lycoming county courts. Knowing tne power of the dis trict nttorney to stand aside jurors, Mr. Costello thought he would do all he could to aid his brother. The witness then came to Harrlsburg to urge the passage of the McCarrell bill. He spoko to Coyle In the Interest of the bill In the presense of Representative John Bnglcr, of Lycoming. On the day Mr. Costello came to Harrlsburg he met Coyle, whom he met two years previous. lie was In vited to Coyle h room, and remained there a few minutes. Afterward he law Mr. Unsler and told him he was there to asslfct in the passage of the bill. Mr. Costello denied that he took Mr. Kugler to Cojle's room, but he Intro duced him to Coyle, because they wero members of his. religious belief. He asked Mr. Hngler to vote for the bill, first at the I-ochlel hotel, and later at his home in Lycoming county. He mada no offer of money. M. J.

March 18. The sensation of the week bas been the charge made publicly by Gen. Henry V. Boynton that the Ann. tlnuous and persistent attacks on Secmtarv Alger, which were begun with the ending of tno late war with Spain, sprang from a well planned conspiracy. Boynton stands in tho front rank of Washington correspondents for thirty years, and his reputation Is of the highest order. He enjoyed tho confident of tho Hayes. Garfield. Harrison and nln,l administrations, and be I or no Irrmnnnlh1 fledging of Newspaper Row, hence his state ments are believed. His statement, as re vised and authorized, Is as follows: "The time seems oDnortuno for in r. posuro of certain facts which have come, to light regarding the origin of the attaoks on the War Denarttnont.
