MARIETTA DAILY LEADER.

PHICE ONE CBN1
' IN CONGRESS.
A forecast of the Business Dur
v ing the Present Week.
The Appropriation Bills, and' Our For
, eign Relations in the Senate.
A Majority on tho Dupont (Delaware) Cass
Will FaTor Seatlnc Mr. Unpont An
Early Adjournment Already Talk
I.,. ed of Probable' June 1.
Washington', Fob. 17. Tho coming1
week in the senate will bo devoted to
action on appropriation .bills and dis
cussion on our rolations with foreign
powers. Tho botter.part of th,e week,
not counting unexpected matters'" that
may be injected during the morning
hours, will bo jriven over to tho con
sideration of tho military academy
bill, which now has the right of way,
and tho pension ' and consular
and diplomatic appropriation bills.
These will exhaust tho appro
priation bills so Var reported to
tho senates by the committee, but inas
much as tho consular and diplomatic
bill mny cause-a general discussion of
foreign affairs, it is' assumed that tho
entire week will' be consumed in dis
Vposlng of the appropriation measures
now on tho calendar. It is doubtful
if Mr. Morrill will endeavor to call
up tho tariff bill again this week.
Republicans who havo carefully can
vassed tho situation say that such
a motion would tend to complicate
matters and that no good can grow
out of it until they have brought about
a cohesion of sentiment in their own
ranks and secured the one necessary
vote from the ranks of tho populists.
This, at present, seems impossible, and
Mr. Morrill, it is believed, will not re
new his motion until he is sure of its
success. Mr. Davis, of the foreign
relations committco and author
of ttfo resolution reported from
tho committco enunciating tho
Monroo doctrine, which has not
yet been passed and possibly never
will bo passed, will address tho senate
upon that resolution Monday. This
spoechT has been anticipated for somo
time with a great deal of interest ow
ing to tho advanced ground taken by
Mr. Davis and his well-known famil
iarity with tho whole subject. His
speeph is expected to set forth the po
sition of tho ultra radicals ou tho sub
ject in a clearer light than has yet
been cast upon it
The Cuban resolution, supplemented
recently by an additional roport from
tho committee on foreign relations de
claring it to bo the opinion of con
gress that this government should re
main neutral and grant all parties in
tho struggle now ponding in Cuba
equal rights, has tho right of way as
tho unfinished business, temporarily
displaced by tho appropriation bills,
and it will doubtless call out
a number of speeches during
the timo that appropriation bills
may not be under discussion. Mr;
Mitchell, chairman of tho committee
on privileges and elections will Mon
day submit to the senate tho majority
report on the Dupont (Delaware) case,
in favor of seating Mr. Dupont Tho
minority report, in tho hands of Mr.
Gray will soon follow, and this matter,
'involving a question of the highest
privileges, may at any moment bo
called up for consideration.
An early adjournment is already
talked of. A few senators are hope
ful that congress may get through by
the first of June. Among some of tho
republican leaders every nerve is be
ing strained to accomplish this result
so that nothing may interfere with
their attendance upon the national
conventions and the campaigns that
will immediately follow.
There is nothing in sight in the
house but appropriation bills. When
tho house adjourned Saturday after
noon general debate had just been
concluded on the blllmaking appro
priations for tho agricultural depart
ment for; tho next fiscal year, but
Chairman Wadsworth expects that a
day or two more at least will bo con
sumed in the discussion of the bill
under the five-minute rule. There are,
it is understood, o.ther members than
thoso who expressed their opinion Sat
urday who desiro to say things about
Secretary Morton's refusal to expend
tho appropriation made in the bill for
the current year for the distribution
of seeds. Besides tho agricultural
bill, there is on the calendar tho army
appropriation bill, and tho Indian bill
is ready to be reported.

LINK BY LINK.
The Chain of Circumstantial ETldence
Surrounding Jackson and Walling.
Cincinnati, Fob. 17. Link by link
tho chain of circumstantial evldcnco Is
being forged about tho murderers of
Pearl Bryan.
Coll Ofllcor Henry Underwood, to
whoso effort is due the discovery of tho
Mullen cab, had another talk with tho
prisoners.
His first conversation was with
Walling. Tho latter said that he
wanted to tell him something, and
then said that after' Jackson had
drugged tho woman she showed signs
of life, and Jackson struck her in tho
head with a blunt instrument, render
ing her unconscious. It was while in
this condition that her head was cut
off.
It Is now tho general belief that tho
woman was struck in tho head and for
this reason tho men arc keeping tho
hiding place of the girl's head a secret.
Thcro is a probability that tho man
who struck her on tho head used a
ntonobrcaker's hammer. This sus
picion 'is borne .out by a statement
made by Farmer Locke. .
Ho says that some few -weeks ago a
stonobreaker was working near his
place on tho Alexandria pike and that'
ho had given this man permission to
hide his tools during tho night in tho
clump of bushes where tho body was
found.
Tho articles found in tho rockaway
coupe of Chester Mullen were: A rug
with blood spots, a bead similar to
thoso worn by the murdered girl, a
lot of hair, three hair pint and a lead
pencil.
The man who drove tho rig in which
Pearl Bryan was conveyed to tho Bpot
near Ft. Thomas where sho was so bru
tally murdered, has been found. Ho is
George H. Jackson, colored, and was
employed for tho occasion by Walling
and Jackson, boh of whom ho readily
identified in a crowd of 40 people at
the jail Saturday night
His long silence is easily explained.
Hired at first under falso conditions,
and later compelled to drive to tho
scene of tho murder with a jjistol at
his head, threatened with death if ho
ever told of tho terriblo ride, glad to
escape with his life, ho was more than
content to remain within tho inclosure
of his employer's yard after a long run
from tho scene of the killing through
the mud and rain!
Jackson and Walling, he says, met
him at George and Elm on the night of
Friday, January 31, and eugaged him
to take them io Ft. Thomas in a sur
rey, drawn by a gray horse, which was
in waiting. In the conveyance was n
girl, who was beyond doubt Pearl
Bryan.
Jackson drove the surrey to a point
within 50 yards of where tho body oi
tho nnfortunato girl was found. There
tho two men took the girl from
tho surrey and walked her away.
Sho appeared to bo stupefied.
A few minutes later Jackson
heard groans coming from tho di.
roction in which the girl had been led,
and this so frightened him that he ran
away, leaving the surrey and party
behind. Ho walked back to Cincin
nati. This Ktnrv is thn ronnpi'tino

Sunday tho police received informa

Walnut Hills livery man, of a
coupo rockaway and an iron
gray horse to a young man whom ha
did not know, but who, as he describes

Albion, who has figured slightly in the

from tho very hour in which tho mur

Mr. Mullen tells a very straight

were covered with mud, and bore evi
dence of having had a long drive over
