that lis iBImborel was unable to supply cloth-
Ing for tli rmy because ho did not lIJ lilnh

Tho Natioral Equipment Company-, whoso
beiwlnunrters In at 11) and 12 East, Twenty

olthit company. alleges that n man, whose

National Equipment Company would agree to
live up a certain percentage of tho mocoy
rewired for nny contmct awarded to tho
company this man could secure for
the National Equipment Company all
the contracts It wanted. Blmborg further
'Icces that this nameless person told him that
' ' ill that wan neceinry to do was to eocuro tho

Un says, said that Abner McKlnley had an
Interest In the law firm of Burnett. Btayton
Campbell of HO Broad etroet; that Hlraborg
ihonld retain this law firm to attend to the
work of seoiirlng tho contract In Wnshlostoa,

Blmberg aliases thut he did this and that ho
i urrtrd to cite as ho understood It, to tho Arm
ofiurnett, Btayton fc Campbell a certain por
centsRS on all contracts awarded to tho Na
tional Equipment Com pany. Ue wan told later
ty the nameless ono that he hadn't received
any contracts because other Arms had agreed
to clve Burnett. Btayton & Campbell a larger
percentage. Dlmberg alleges that he raised
the ante from tlmo to time, but failed to
iccare any contracts, hlsngpemont as to per
centage belns used In WaslilnRlon to secure
mora favorable terms by Burnett. 8tnytnu
Campbell from other bidders. Acconllnc to
Blmbere'i statement. Btorman. Iloldelhsrg

child i Lang, and a representative of John
Wanamaker finally made rt combination and
secured all the best contracts. Abner McKlnley
letting a raks-off, aa be undorbtood It, from
each one.
Blmberg furthor allegod that be offorrd to
furnish canvas uniforms to the army for $2.10,
and that the contract was finally awarded to
Blertnan. Heidelberg 4 Co. for $3.IO. Ho save
that the uniforms for which theOorornmont

I the nameless ono that Burnett, Btayton i
Campbell, or Abner McKlnley, or somebody
vat to cet $1 apiece on every overcoat fur

Alter seeing Col. Kimball n reporter of Tnp
Run called ntthenfllco ot Btayton A Campbell,
Mi urond street, Mr. Citmnoclj was thu only
niember of the firm In, and to him thoartlclo
I in. the MorM vvn icfiTrcil. Mr.Ciimtibolj sold:
"1 hnvoiust remi the article In the World,
I and nt tho outset deMre to sny that It Isn Ho
made out ot whole dot h, lhofrm of Bur
nett, htnytoti A Campboll wus dissolved hy
the wlthdrnwal of Don. Burnett on tho 1st
day of Juno. Neither tho firm ol Burnett,
Htnytnu A Campbell, nor Utuyton k Campbell,
nor mrself. nor any of the members Individu
ally ever had any business with the (Jovorn
mmit. either. dlroct.y or Indirectly, through
Aimer MuJvlnloy. 1 do tint bo ieve that Aimer
McKlnley was ever connected In any way
with any contract let by tho uoverii
rncnt. Wo nover had any business with
M. It. Blmberg. I never saw him In my
life, and know nothing whuteverof any busi
ness ho may. have ban with thu Government.
In thotnidillo ot tho summer, 1 think It was
July. I was In wnahlngtou on ouslness con
nected with our Dim, and learned that
1 thu Government was about to purchase
, some duik trousers, and I was In
formed that the National Equipment Com
1 pany hod made a previous bid for work
I ot Oils kind. 1 called them up by telephone
and told thorn of this contraot. asking thum If
they desired to bid. '1 hey Biild thut they did.
and 1 asked them to telegraph mo authority to
bid as thulr attorney, audngieed to represent
them for n contingent fee. This was done,
mid I put In tho. bid for them personally.
I wont to see Col. Tattoo In tho Quurtermus
tor a Department about the matter, and with
him 1 lett tho .bid. He afterward told
mo that they had decided not to let thn con
tract at all. At another tlmo anagontofthis
company, whose name I do not now remem
ber, came to our onice and consulted me about
some Proposed hid, and I believe we made an
arrangement with him upon a contingent basis
and that I put In Ills hid ut the Army building
here. 1 believe that this was a bid lor leg
gings. . The contract was let to a lower bidder,
and this was the last that I heard of this con
tniou As to the charges that there was a combi
nation between A. U, Klrschbaum, David Mar
A Co.. Heller, ltotchschlld A Lang, keuyon 4
Co. and vVanamuker, I know nothing what
ever. 1 do not know any of these tlrmsor their
representatives and never did or had any
business with them. 1 desire to repeat tlmt
I never In my life epoke with Abner MoKln
ley coucerninc a Government contract, and
that he had nothing whatever to Ho with Blm
berg or with Ins company, so funis I know;
that I did not represent to the agent of this
company that I had any Influence whatever at
vvas.diigtou or. with any of the departments
there or here, and only took the mutter
up with the understanding that I was
to look over their bids and see that they were
In proper lorm and present them here person
ally or sond them to our correspondent to be
presented in Washington.
The Nat.onal Equipment Company became,
our clients In this way; A Hebrew, whose
name I have forgotten, knew thut we hud
among our clients three ill ins who had en
deavored to secure contracts for clothing
the army. As I understand It. this muo
went lo tho National hqulpmont Com-
tiuny and told somebody coiineuted vilb
t that if the company wanted to secure
an army contmct ours was the llrm to do busi
ness with. '1 Inter tlmt this Individual recom
mended us to the National Equipment iJom
puny because ho really thought we could se
cure for the company the contracts It denlrod,
and thut If the company secured the contract
he would be able to get his commission Irom
the compuny. This man came to see me
and told me that the National Equipment
Company warned to bid on leggings,
cutivas uniforms and duck trousers. 1 agreed
to do what I could, our tee to b 10 per cent- in
two oases and 5 per cent. In another of the face
value ol the contruct, if tho awurd was made
to the National Equipment lorn i any. The Na
tional Equipment Company did not secure any
contracts because their prices were e.ther too
high or the goods they wanted to lurnlth were
not acceptable to the Government. I may add
that our drm wus novur auccessiul ( secur.nc
a Uowrument contract tor any one whom we
represented."
The National Equipment Company evidently
went to rituyton A Cumpbell alter mm berg had
been unailu to secure any contracts through
hlsown endeavors. It was teamed last night
that Blmberg vob In Washington Inst June lor
the purpose of securing army contracts, lie
culled on a gentleman from Now York who was
In vv ushliigton et the time and to him said:
'Ira here to get some of these good things
that are tioinc iirouud in he way of contracts,
and I want you to help me llx things.
You want mo to do what ?" asked the
gentleman.
" 1 want you to put me noxt to the fellow that
awards the contract." says llimherg.
"My friend." said the gentleman. "I am
afraid you don't know how they do business in
the Wur Department. Thero is no such thing
as fixing thitjgs' or 'gettingnext.' They don't
do business n the War Department that way.
The best thing you can do in to go back to New
loik. and It ynu wunt tosevuidany army cou-trn.-ts
go about it in a ett aight. leg timuto way."
"Oh. that's nil right," sunt Tllmbenr. "I
frileua I iinr.iv nrlmt I'm tnlblna nlmur f luat
! cume from New York, und a rehow told me that
I if 1 wanted to get any armyltoiitractt. the thing
to do vvbm to cume to Washington, get things
fixed, uud get next to the people that make the
awards, The tellow that told me till knows
bin bUHlness. and ho told me just what io do.
I'm here in do It, but 1 don't know the folks.
n i at 1 want you to do Is to Introduce me."
The gentleman to whom Blmberg was talk
ing made up his mind thut some one In New
York had persuaded Blmberg. as the green
' goods gentlemen persuade tanner, that he
hud to do certain things In order to secure
I army con ti acts. '1 he gentleman also saw
that It wait absolutely lmo-sibIe to con
vince Uimborg to the contrary, and. thereloro,
he gave Blmberg u letter of Introduction to the
Ujturtermaster-Uenorul. As mlghr havo been
exacted, the (Junrtermaster-Oeneral told
Blmberg to go buck to New York, rut In
his bid to Col. Kimball In the ordinary
war. and that if he was the lowest resnom-lble
bidder he would get the contract. Blmberg
returned to New York. It Is Inferred from
, this that the e-mi man who told Uim
! berg to go to Wushlnuton to "fix thlngV
i was the man who. If anybody did so, told him
Abner McKlnley was Interested In the law firm
ot Htuyton A Campbell, and that through thut
Arm the Natonal Equipment Company could
secure army contracts. The most charitable
Interpretation to put on the whole business Is
that fiotn the beginning to tho end of Dim
berg's ondeavota to secure army contracts ho
wa buying gold bricks from this nameless
middle man.
It may be also stated that when Blmberg
says the same canvas uniforms for which
the Oovernment paid $3.0a to Ulorman,
Heidelberg A Co. are being sold lor
Sl.ltl for campaign purposes, he doesn't
know what he Is talking about. The
uniforms Bold to campaign clubs are made of
the cheapest canvas obtainable, and a reporter
of TnEbuN saw lust night a blh for some of
these uniforms, and the price was $2.1:5 each.

"A meeting ot tho Executive Committee ot
the Btate Committee of tho National Demo
crats of Missouri was held this day In the city
1 of Bt, Louis, and In connection therewith a
1 number ot sound-money Domocrats were as
sembled from different parts ot tho State.
Advloos received from all parts of Missouri
how that there Is not the slightest abatement
of opposition among sound-money Domocrats
to tho Chicago platform ofJtSSK). At tho com
ing elcotlon In this Btato wo aro confronted
with the same Issue, the free coinage of silver,
which In 1B00 divided and demoralized the
Democratlo party and overwhelmed It with
disaster In the national election under an ad
vorso popular majority of nearly 1.000,000
votes. The platform adopted at tho'Sprlng
field Convention by the Democratlo organiza
tion of tnls Btato, which has the semblance of
regularity, reaffirms the Chicago platform and
makes the freo coinage of silver at the ratio of
10 to 1 the foremost Issue of the tlmo, and the
elcotlon of the party candidates Is now asked
on the distinct ground that the eamo Issue
may be forced to the front again In 1IKX). Thus I
the question of the money standard (a to bo ro-
agitated, with the continued demoralization
of the Democratlo party and the consequent
paralrzatlon of oredlt and enterprise.
"Tho reagltatlon ot this Issue In this State
was not of our seeking. We had hoped that
the verdict rendered by the people In 181)0,
after full discussion, upon free and unlimited
liver coinage, would be accepted aa Una), and
that the necessity of recognizing the finality
of that decision would be acquiesced In. In
the vory nature of things there must bo a final
determination of such an Issue. The contin
ued agitation and the resulting uncertainty
us to our money etanda.d threaten oubllo and
private oredlt. and Is a distinct menace to tho
prosperity of the people. All candid men must
agree, that no Industrial people can hope for
prosperity, public or private, when the basis
of credit and enterprise. Is dependent upon the
result of each recurring eleoilon.
"Two years have elapsed since the people
rejected the Chicago platform. Its advocates
asserted In that campaign that there could be
I no prosperity of the people till tree silver was
adopted, and that disaster would follow the
coutlnuauce ot the gold standard. No one of
tholr predictions has been fulfilled. On the
j contrary, conditions since the election of lwnl

prophets. Business confidence has been re
vived : the products of our farms and mines
have risen In valuo: labor has found increased
employment, aud our exports have expanded
beyond all precedent In our history. Pros
perity revived wheu the menace to the stand
ard ot value was removed. Shall we check
this advancing prosperity by reagttatlng this
disturbing question and thus renew the peril
which was then escaped?

Htates Benator. The next Congress will be
called upon to enact Important national legis
lation concerning our newly acquired terri
tory and to readjust our banking and currency
system to the commercial and Industrial prog
ress of the oountry. The control of our next
House of Representatives by a fulon of Chi
cago platform Democrats and Populists would
be n nubllo calamity. The barn apprehension
of this is now a disturbing factor In our re
viving prosperity, and Its announcement would
be u dlstlnot shock to publlo and private en
terprise. "In the present crisis of our national his

which have developed In tho last two years,
we aro more than ever convinced of the
soundness of the political principle , the time
honored economic and constitutional doc
trines of the Democratic party sound money,
tariff for revenue only, and opposition to
paternalism of all kinds that were declared In

Section 2. Artlcll VI, of tho Constitution or the
Btate of Now York says: " From all the Justices
elected to the Pupremo Court, the Governor
shall designate those who shall constitute' tho
Appella'te Division In each department and he
ehall deslgnnto the presiding Justice thereof."
Now. suppose Augustus, the brother of Rob
ert, and head of tho firm of Van Wyok. Van
Wyck A Co., of which Richard Croker Is the
managing partner, should bo elected Governor.
Richard Croker would have the selection of the
Appellate Division of the Hupreme Court, not
only lo tho department In New York and In the
department In Brooklyn, but In every other de
partment in the Btato. Imaglno David Levou
trltt, Mr. Croker'a personal friend, sitting on
Presiding Justice of the Appollata Division of
the flupreme Court n New York, Justice Daly
was turned down because he wouldn't obey
Mr. Croker. David Loventrltt wus nominated
beonuse he would obey him. The election ot
Van Wyck of the frm of Van Wyck. Van Wyck
A Co.. and of Leventrltt, means that Rich
ard Croker will absolutely control, not
only the Hnpromo Court of the Btate, but
the Appollato Division, which reviews
the decisions of the Supremo Court and
Is supposed to correct any errors that tho court
below may make. Buppoao n suit Is brought

The Democratlo National Committee. ot which

vote of 87 lo 13. Although the Democratlo i
lcailorsin tho Btate of New York were powor- I
ful enough this yearto Ignoro tho Chicago plat- I
form, In their Btato Convention In 110, which
will bo called to elect delegates at largo to tho
Democratlo National Convention, they must
Indorse tho Chicago platform of 1800. Tho
Democratic Nation nl Committee makes up tho
temoorary roll of tho National Convention, and I
tho committee controlled as It Is by the free I
' sllverltes, would refuso to admit the delegates
at largo from tho Btate ot Now York unless tho
Btate Convention sending them to tho Notional
Convention Indorses tho Chicago platform ot i
180t).
A voto for Van Wyck fills year or a voto for
any Demooratlo candidate for Congressman
will simply strengthen tho free sllverltos all

of Now York aro trying to hoodwink the voters
of tho State on this Issue.

What the Election of Democratlo Congress-
Imen and fltate IRlalntors Would Mean.
It was not a free silver law that brought
about the business panic, the business dis
asters, the money stringency, and the poverty
that preceded the election of 1806. It was
merely the rear that there might be a free
silver law, the throat of the Demooratlo party
that If tharsuccooded they would make a free
, silver law. The threat still stands. TheDemo-
cratlc Congressional campaign book for the
present year says: "The batteries of tho
money retormona must not be silenced nor
domestlo Issues lost sight of because we have
I engaged In a foreign war. The batUe of the
standards must go on. The free coinage of
sliver must remain the dominant issue In tho
. coming campaign." "
The election of a majority of Democrats In
1 the next Congress will result In a free coinage
of sliver bill passing tho House and will Indi
cate that the free sllverltes have the strength
to hack up their threats. That will reopen tho
whole free silver question again. and justaa In
evitably as It came In ltRKl. wl I come the busi
ness disasters again. The thirty-four candi
dates for Congress on the Democratlo ticket In
New York this year all voted Tor Ilryan and Tree
silver In 1800. George ll. McClollnn. Amos J.
Cummlngs. Thomas J. Bradley and William
Sulzer, who were In the last Congress and are
running for reelection, all voted for the Teller
free stiver and national dishonor resolution.
United States Senator Edward Murphy, Jr.,
I worked nnd voted for the resolution. He la a
candidate for reelection, and the membentof
the Assembly and the Stute Senate elected this
year are the men who are to elect his successor.
It by any hook ororook the Democrats should
succeed In winning tho Legislature Free Silver
Senator Edward Murphy would be refilected
and would vote for free sliver In the Senate.

mnmmoth trunit arrived from New York city
and was hustled off to a room not far from

been secretly notiileil to be on the lookout for
the trunks that the friends of Richard Croker
at the Hoffman House, New York city, nro
known to be sending to different cities In the
Btate, ospoclally those alone the line of the Erlo
Canal. The Republicans havo also been notl
Qrd by their camraicn managers at the Fifth
Avenue notel, New York olty. to keep a sharp
lookout for theso trunks. It Is believed that
this Is to b a great " booties" campaign In
the State. To "bootleg" a bank noto Is to
tuck It well down between tho leather of the

Tho Democrats are talking In most friendly
tones of George W. Aldridge. Superintendent
of Publlo Works, at Albany. The republican
business men of Monroe county and tho Inde
pendent citizens of this prosperous city are
alive to the sound-money Importance of the

vote on flection day and that the Democrats
havo notiuthorlty to speak in such unusually
flattering terms of Mr. Aldrldge at this tlmo.
