to All Questions.
(Hr AMoeUtfl Prei )
WASHINGTON, June 18. Senator Ran
som created a silent sensation when he
appeared before the Senate Sugar Trust
Investigating Committee to-ilny. He
was asked, as were other Scnotors, who
were befoic the Committee, tho follow
ing Question, by Senator Lodge: " "as
any member of your family, or nny per
son In our employ, or any clerk em
ployed under the laws of the United
States in your service, been, to your
knon ledge, Interested in any of the ways
Indicated In any of tho preceding ques
tions ln any transaction In sugar stocks,
or certificates, during the period men
tioned?" In replying, for his own part. Senator
Ransom repeated the statement he said
he had made to a nen sparer corre
spondent, that he never owned one cer
tificate or piece of certificate of sugar
stock In his life: that since he had been
ln the Senate he had never traded In
one dollar's worth of stock of any sort,
ln any nay, shape or form.
The correspondent had shown him a
list of transactions In a broker's ofltce.
where his name occurred. He had taken
the correspondent to hlB son George,
who stated In the presence of the re
porter and others, that he had bought
some sugar stock on the 17th or 18th of
April, lie put up a margin of 10, which
he paid tho broker on sugar stock. He
said on the same day he put up n mar
gin of J23 on cotton. He lost the cot
ton and made J10 on sugar. After that
he repeated the same bet on sugar, nut
not on cotton, and the Senator thi T.t
he lost the second.
The Senator then stated that his son
had admitted further, that he and Cnpt,
Barnes, a messenger nt the Senate Com
merce committee-room, after that, on
two occasions bought JI0 worth of sugar
stock apiece. The Senator said he naked
the correspondent to examine his Hon
fully as much as he pleased, and to see
Cipt. llarncs and examine him too.
Senator Gray nsked: "Had you nny
knowledge whatever until this Interview
with the correspondent an the evening
you mention, of the bets of your son
with this broker in sugar nnd cotton-
Senator Ransom replied: I never
dreamed of Buch a thing. I never
thought of it. I would not have believed
It."
Senator Smith, of New Jersey, whoso
name has been connected with the ru
mors regarding sugar, answered all tho
categorical questions put by the Commit
tee nnd denied thnt he had given any
information, directly or Indirectly, ti
persons Interested In sugar stocks: said
he had not bought nor sold such stocks,
had never been concerned with any
person in the sile of such stocks or
certificates, no one had bought such
stocks In nny wny In which he would
shore ln the profits, and no member
of his family had been concerned In
such transactions.
All the cntegorlcal questions were an
swered In the negative, the same as In
the case of the other Senators. Mr.
Smith, however, was examined at some
length lis to the meetings at Senator
llrlce's houe. and at the Arlington Ho
tel. His testimony corresponded with
that previously given by other wit
nesses. .-. I.
Senator Quay was before the Commit
tee Just befoie 3 o'clock. Hn told the
Committee that he bought Sugar stock
for speculation, and that he would do
so again.
A number of other Senators wero ex
amined during ihe day, but none of
tlum c"ve any testimony beyond the
denial of the categorical questions con
cerning th" purchase nnd ownership of
Sugar stock or knowledge of nny pur
chase by nnv one connected with tliem
cither odlclilly or domestically.
The Hit Included Senators Gordon,
.ToneB, of Nevada Kyle, McLaurln, Min

WASHINGTON, Juno 16.-In the Sen
ate this morning, when the Tariff bill
was taken up, tne vote was Immediately
taken on tho pending umendinenl of
Mr. i'elter to U.uiMer all manufactures
eonipoaed wholly or ln part of wool to
'.he free list. It was defeated, 3 to 44.
The three Populists, Allen, Kyle and
1'effer, oted In favor of It.
.Mr. Hansbrougn (Rep., N. I).) an
nounced that ne would have voted
"yea" had hu not been paired.
Tne Senate then plunged into the
actual consideration of the woollen
schedule.
Tae first paragraph (27S), placing a
duty of 15 per cent, on wool and hair
in the form of stubbing, waste, loving
waste, mungo shoJdy, corded wattc,
carbonised noils or otner waste product,
wa read. Thlu was the House rate.
Tne Finance Committee amendments
struck out thl-1 piragraph, but made
shoddy, mungo, garnitted waste and
carbonized noils and wool In the form of
roving, i oping or tops lit the following
paragraph dutiable ut IS per cent.
Mr. Rest explained tint the Finance
Committee had been moved to place u
dutv on shoddv and waste In order to
exclude them from the country, to the
end th.it tho manufacture of shoddy,
so prevalent ln this country, might, to
a certain extent, cease. On of the pur
poses of placing wool on the tree list
was to discourage the manufacture of
shoddy. Under the McKlnley act the
manufacture of shoddy. .Mr. Vest said,
had doubled. Last J ear It had reached
JW.OOO.OOD.
Mr. Aldrlch contended that there was
nothing Illegitimate In tho manufacture
of shodly. The reduction In duty on
shoddy (from Ju cents per pound to ID
per cent, ad valorem) proposed In the
bill. Mr. Aldrlch hall, would stimulate,
rather than discourage tho production
of shoddy goods.

Whllo tho lenders of the regular Re

demanding that only straight party

various anti-Tammany organizations
nre making all possible efforts to have
the organizations come together, nnd It
Is probable that at the proper time they
will bo found working hand In hand
to down tho Tiger nnd the lllephant.
The first of the outside organizations
to take the Meld In opposition to Tam
many Hull, nnd, In fact, to set the
pace for the others, was the Independ
ent county organization, which mine
into being Nov, 21, 1833, nt a confer
ence at the Union Square Hotel, at

been prominent In the movement, In

WILLIAM U. ORACK. STATE DnVtOCIlACT.
The new organization waa distin
guished from other similar organiza
tions ln the past by three distinct lines
of action, as follows:
First Abholuu divorcement of munici
pal trom State und Nutluual politics,
thereby steering clear of the pitfalls
which havo proven finally the destruc
tion of the County Democracy, Irving
Hall, the New Vork Democracy und
other similar organizations.
Second Direct nppenl to the plain
common people, nnd not to tho aristo
cratic opponents of Tammany on Fifth
nnd Madison nvenues, whose opposition
has continuously helped Tammany with
the worklngmtn of the city.
Third Thu use ns political ammuni
tion of speclllc nnd pertinent charges of
wrong doing In otllee, ngalnst Tammany
otllcliils, nnd not vacuo generalities or
unimbutnmlal claims.
The Committee which met at the
Union Square Hotel devoted the ensuing
three weeks to organizing u public
lnnBs-meetlng, which took plnce nt
Cooper Union Dec. II, und wns tho
largest political gathering of the kind
ever held In that historic meeting-place
In the mnth of December. Thomas .11.
Van Iluren presided and Alexander S.
Ilacon. fresn from his triumphs In
Gravescnd, and John D. Townser.d
were the chief speakers.
Mr. Townsend devoted his nttentlon
to the offenses of Tammany, and his ac
cusations went straight to the mark, for
they evoked, a few days later, a four
column answer from Richard t'rokcr. In
which he put himself und his organiza
tion, for tho first time In nine years, on
tho defensive That was the turning
point in the fight against Tammany, and
since December Tammany has been
continuously on the defensive. Follow
ing the Cooper Union meeting, two com
mittees were appointed by the Indepen
dent County organization, one to prepare
for a bittle In tho various Assembly Dis
tricts and the other to furnish ammuni
tion for the bittle acaluat the ring,

While this branch of the work has
been going on actively under a commlt

Comnilttte has not been idle. Rarly in

The Independent County men claim
that their organization has a voting
strength of 30.000. It Is open to nil op
ponents of Tammany Hall of every
shade of political belief, und ndheres
firmly to the resolution of keeping out
of State and Natlounl politics.
One week-foIlowlng the meeting nt the
Cooper Union of the Independent Coun
ty organization, the State Democracy
was established nt the Fame place by
the election of ex-Secretnryof the Treas

on Dcmncintlo lines, and to aid In the
work of freeing the people of New
York fiom the thraldom and tyranny
of the Tammany Hall ling. The State
Demociacy Includes anionic Its mem
bers four ex-Mayots of New York
Grace. Cooper L'lv and Hewitt. It In
cludes both of President Cleveland's
New York nominees for tho Supreme
Court bench Mr. l'eckhani and Mr.

candidate for Dlstrlct-Attniney In the
same year; Shipping Commissioner
Power, ex-Rcglster Slevln, Herman Wil
der nnd seven of the most rctlve lead
. ers of the former Cnuntv nenioeraev.
The activity of the State Democracy
has been shown chiefly In the work of
getting together Independent Demo
crats, enrolling them ln the various
districts nnd securing for their use und
convenience n permanent headquarters.
The State Democracy claims an enrol
ment of 40.000, and some of Its lenders
avow their willingness to put that cn
rolmeent to the test of n vote by tho
running, ln case of need, of stralghtout
candidates In any district wherein the
activity or validity of the enrolment Is
disputed.
While tho Independent County organi
zation and the State Democrncy have on
repnrate lines been proceeding against
Tammany, another organization hav
ing a similar aim, hut proceeding In a
dtffeient manner, hns established Itself
In permanent quarters on West Forty
second striet, near Hrondway. This Is
the Anti-Tammany Democracy, at tho
head of which Is the vetiran organizer,
.lames O'Rrlen, whose services against
the ring of twenty years ago nre grate
fully remembered by all New Yorkers
who have unv knowledge of the facts of
the fight lending up to the over
throw of Tweed and his confederates.
Senator O'Rrleu's organization has had
no general mass-meeting, but hns been
organized on the district plan of three
districts participating in one big meeting.

The declared aim of tl) Anti-Tammany
organization Is a common union of all
forces against any candidate put up by
Tammany Hall for anv municipal office.
Ihe Anll-Tnmmany organization Intends,
Its leaders declare, to stick strictly to
local matters and to keep out of State
and National politics.
The German-Amerlcin neform Union
was established In 18W to assist In the
election of G rover Cleveland and In
support of the principle of tar
iff reform. Following the election
of Mr Cleveland It wns revived
to oppose the election of Isaac
II. Maynard, and Its leaders were vig
orous In advocating the election of
Judge Rartlett, hla Republican competi
tor. The defeat of Judge Maynard
hnvlng been accomplished, the German
American Union now seeks to train Its
guns ugnlnst Tammany Hall. At the
head of the organization Is Oswald Ot
tendorfer and among his lieutenants are
Louis Wlndmuller, Gustav Schwab, Her
man Rldder, Dr. J. II. Senner, Edward
Grossc, I,. F. Thoma, Arthur Van Drle
sen, August Klelnau and Bernard
Amend.
The German-American Union Is com
posed of Republicans as well ns Demo
crats, though the Democrats outnumber
the Republicans, It is said, ln the pro
portion of 4 to 1 In the enrolment of
40,000. Tho leaders do not Beek undue
prominence ln the warfare which they
are waging against Tammany Hall.
They disavow tho existence of any can
didates ln their ranks, nnd declare that
all they seek Is the putting up of suit
able nominees. Irrespective of political
conditions, for the various offices which
are to be filled at this year's election.
The German voters constitute a very
large factor In the army of opposition
to Tammany Hall, nnd If they give as
good nn account of themselves ns their
erman fellow-cltlzens across the bridge
did at last year's election ln support of
Charles A. Schleren for Mayor, their
co-opcratlon will bo welcomed by all
other antl-Tammnny organizations In
tow n.
When the City Club was established
the purposes of Its Incorporators was
made clearly known. It was to stand
out inralnst political coiruptlon and for
good government, Irrespective of party
lines. After the City Club had made
manifest the views of Its members, the
second chapter In Its record for useful
ness was opened by the establishment
of branches In various districts, known
ns Good Government Clubs. These
branches have b-en springing up In va
rious parts of the town und have been
distinguished by alphabetical marks..
The Good Government people claim a
membership of 10,001), absolutely hostile
to Tammany Hall.
Good Government Club A, has head
quarters In upper Lexington avenue:

Papers for Forger Mulligan Have
Boon Sent to Albany.
Ratbbono & Son Keenly Feel the
Betrayal of Their Trust.
Assistant District-Attorney Battle this
morning prepared extradition papers and
sent them to Albany, ln the cases of Ed
ward J. Mulligan, the young forger and
embezzler, who, upon his own confes
sion, robbed his employers, R. C. Rath
bone & Son, fire Insurance men, of 1S7
Broadway, of 126,000.
The arand Jury yesterday Indicted
Mulligan, nnd In the afternoon Detective
Sergt. Jake Von Gerlchten armed with
a bench warrant, had him arrested at
the residence of his wife's parents, 32
Willow street, Monclalr, N. J.
The prisoner, who had been In Califor
nia since the discovery of his crime
and returned only a few days ago to
meet his wife, took his arrest calmly,
'lie was taken to Police Headquarters at
Newark. N. J., where he will be held
until extradited.
Mulligan had entered the employ of
Rathbone & Son as an office boy, thir
teen years old, and from the beginning
worked himself Into the firm's confidence.
As the years passed on he was made
manager and was paid a handsome sal
ary. His employers Introduced him Into
society, assisted him to buy a house,
actually felt grieved because he lobered
so hard and refused to take a vacation
when, as a matter of fact, he was rob
bing them and had been doing It for
eight years.
It. II. Rathbone said this morning
thnt he cared to a certain degree, for
the money Involved, but the shock upon
finding how he had been bo grossly
Imposed upon was the hardest blow of
all.
"At the Insurance office It wns difficult
to ascertain the details of the pecula
tions chnrged against Mulligan. The
firm said, nowever, that Mulligan had
stolen from $40,000 to $50,000, and they
have ln their possession as evidence
forty forged checks. A number of
them called for amounts between $700
and JE00.
His custom was to get early to the
office and abstract checks from the
mall and return acknowledgement to
the customers who had remitted to pay
premiums on policies. He then forged
the firm's Indorsement and drew the
money from the First National Bank,
where the Company had an account.

STRUCK BY A TRAIrj,

Mrs. McGinnoss Tried to Save Hot
Elderly Friend.
Confuted by Cars Running hi Oppo
site Directions,
PATEnSON, N. J., June lC-Whlle
picking coal at noon to-day on the track
of the Lackawanna Railroad, at the
New street crossing, two women fell
under the wheels of a westbound coal
train and were almost cut to pieces.
One of them, Mrs. Mary McOlnness,
thirty-five years old, of 171 Marshall
street. Is still alive at SL Joseph's Hos
pital,, but her death Is momentarily ex
pected. Her companion, Mrs. Fnrax
Haggerty, a much older woman, waa
literally crushed to a pulp.
At the place where the accident oc
curred the road takes a sharp curve,
so that a train going In either direction
cannot be seen until it Is within 100 feet
of the crossing.
The women were on the east-bound
track when they were warned of the ap
proach of a coal train. To escape It
they crossed to the other track, when an
other train appeared coming from the op
posite direction.
Mrs. Mcuinneis tried to pull her com
panion out of danger, but Mrs. Haggerty
seemed paralyzed with fear and stood
still, trembling from held to foot.
One step would have carried Mrs. Mc
Olnness to a place of safety, but she con
tinued to urge her frightened friend from
the way of the approaching coal train,
refusing to desert her In her peril. An
other Instant and they were beneath the
wheels of t.ic heavily laden cms.
As toon as possible the train was
brought to a standstill. The two man
gled forms were lifted out and laid beside
the road bed Mrs. McGinnesn was still
alive and moaning feebly. Her compan
ion, though had beet Instantly killed.
Ambulances were called nnd Mrs. Mc
Glnness was taken to St. Joseph's Hos
pital, where her Injuries were pro
nounced fatal. The bod)' of Mrs. Hag
gerty was taken to her late residence.
6 Marshall street. Mri. McGlnnlss Is
the mother of five small children.
No blame attaches to the Railroad
Company because of the accident. It was
altogether due to the fact that the dead
woman was so overcome with terror
that sTie was unable to help herself. At
the New street crossing, where many
poor people gather up coals dropped
from passing trains, scarcely a day
pisses but an accident Is narrowly avoid
ed, owing to the vigilance of the railroad
employ ees.
