trouhlo was that the president did not want
Packard. Dd'oie that Matthews luid hecn
l.itterly opposed t ) Packard. I had l.ecn
to sec him some t'tno heforu Anderson saw
him.
Q. What was thn 1 lfluencc, if you know
from this conversation, that Anderson exer
cised on Senu'or Matthews which hroc'ht
the chalice of front.' A. I do not think
Anderson's influence Lrouirht nhout the
chum.'.-. It helped it. I think, hut I do not
think it hrouht nlxnit the chan','e.
Q. What did? A. I talked with Sena
tor Alatthews a nuinhcr of times, imd otln r
yens from our State did, and aliout that
time, you know, there was a change of front
down thrtt'. Senator Matthews hud stood
vciy w ell d i'vii !n our State, and had hecn
con up in'.: fur his part in w hat was called
the Worm cy Conference, and one tl.'nand
another, ;.nd f eaino; up the Nicholls govern
ment, and thn newspapers o-ot tii iihiisin
him, and he did not feel so friendly to the
Democratic element that helped t-i tiring
him ar-ifid. and then ulsn the interview
Aith myself, ami I think Anderson a great
deal, hei auso Matthews represented to me
that he had said to Anderson that he had
tiii.tlly hecoini.- satisfied that Packard under
stood hi tter the wants of parties down
tin-re, and wits the proper man to he ap
pointed. As to any other influence, Mat
thews never represented that Anderson
had any.
Q. After the time you hecame satisfied
Pack i -d could not gel the position of col
lector, you then urged your owa claims?
A. This is a very peculiar Administration.
I was going to say that up to w ithin three
or four days of Smith's appointment Sen
ator Matthews thought Packard's chances
very good, and I represented to Matthews
and to the President that I preferred Pack
ard's appointment.' Matthews informed nto
up t-i within prohrtlily two weeks of the ap
pointment that he thought Packard would
get it.
Q -.Was it at that time it looked very well
for you to get in it. A. Yes, sir, I think
pfoliahly flint it did.
Ij. Was that through the Influence of
Senator Matthews for ymi? A. I don't
know. Mr. Matthews told me he had one or
two i'jterviewa with the President in my he
half and that lie S'.-tmcd very nvuitthle t;
iaO. and that I would lie appointed.
( Was not Semit ir Matthews at a err
lain period of time aft-r he withdrew his
opposition to Packard active in your hchalf
an I did he not urge upon the President
your appointment' A. lean say nothing
further than what Senator M. -.tthews told
me. He t. ild nie he would endeavor t in
fluence the President in my favor.
(J.- Do you rememher .Mrs. Jenks heing
le-re? A. Yes, sir; she was here. It was
piiV.i.-'icd in the papers that she was here
and that -he had the Sherman doctiineut.
IJ. .?!i" was le-re claim!,ig tn have the
Sherman letter? A. She told me she had.
II What was she doing with it? A.
I could not say; fuy impression is Mrs.
Jcnks came here the latter part of January,
and think the day uft.-r she came, she taint!
up tii the house and called me into an ante
room and stated to me she whs desirous of
assisting Packard in securing the pice,
and that the administration did not appear
to consider the claims of licptihlicans
down there who had served the party that
Packard would appoint to serve the 'par.
and good men, and she offered her services
that is, said she might he of service. In
any case she said she was gning to see Mr.
Sherman. 1 think she said that she hud
an agreement or letter. She said this let
ter wns written hy Mr. Sherman and that
she wanted to use it if it collld he Used to
help Packard. I didn't care to take any
part in the matter ami told her she had
hotter see Packard or Kellogorsonieh idy,
and I think that was the last I mv of her.
I rcineinher distinctly ln r telling me at our
first interview that she had tin- iliicunteii's.
It may he that she said she was represent
ing a paity that had firm, hut I think she
said she had them,
t. Ahout how long w, s it lu fore Mrs.
Ji-nks changed front on her statement as to
ha !ng or not having the letter? A. As
nearly as I can reccolleet she was here a
couple of weeks. 1 never talked with her
after that except as I passed her on fu
st feet once or tw ice; 1 nit in the course of a
week or mi tin re was an int-riew with Mr.
Sherman, in the course of which he said
he had never given such a letter, for Mrs.
Jcnks admitted he m-vcr had. She pub
lished a ca-d !n the Times to that effect. I
rcineinher during lie time A'-dcrson was
hen- In- saw her.
hat other copies of Slici man docu
ments are 'n existence; any except tin-original
document w Inch she claims to have?
A. I am not sure. I expect Anderson had a
copy.
(J. How long did he have it copy? A.
I have no idea. I recollect Andersoy told
me that the original document was left with
Welter soon after it was w ritten, and he
had a copy. I suppose he has had a copy
ever since.
II When was the first time you knew
that Matthews was aw are that certain papers
were not in Anderson's hands which it was
any ways important to take up? A. I can
not answer the ipiestioii just in that shape.
Matthews never said to me that Anderson
had any papers he. desired to take up; on
the the contrary lie said tome in one of our
interview-., prohnbly in March, that the
papers in Anderson's hands were of no ac
count, and he did not care whether they
were taken up or not. I ineiin his letters
that he might have written. I remember
we had a conversation at that time in re
gard to tin- Sherman letter, and Matthews'
opinion was that there was not tiny such
letter ever given, and that it was not worth
bothering about.
Hy Mr. Cox What was the date of that
conversation? A. It wort Id he some time
during Mandi; that is my recollection in re
gnrd to our conversation.
Dy McMahon. -Look at that letter and
see if it is your handwriting and if it re
freshes yoiir recollection ns to any mailers
(handing him a letter to witness). A.
Yes; this Is a little earlier Onto titan i
thought. I said ill wits dated in March, but
1 see it is dated February 17. Thn conver
sation that I Imd with Matthews was about
this letter this document. At Iho time.
there was nothing said ahout my rec
ollection of any pnpers or documents or
ttnyth' ig of the kind. Matthews said lio
was anxious to obli viv AmlckBon.
(J. ndeison hud just been over here,
Imdn't he? A. Yes, l't: I inui-'ino lie had
just been he; e. Ilewai over a number of
t'lne-t.
Mr. Cox heie retpiested that the letter he
read in full, insiead of being taken up
piece-meal, and McMahon, complying, read
as fol'ows:
