epcclal committee chosen yesterday by the
standing committees reported in favor of
authorising the procurer RUitcr.il to proceed
against Senators Renault , Albert Grovy ,
Bcral , T-hovenot and Doves on account of
their connection with the Panama canal
frauds. M. Thoronot , who Is ex-minister of
Justice , solemnly afllrmed that lie never re
ceived a centime from the r.ltmtna Canal
company , cither directly or Indirectly.
The parliamentary commission of inquiry
learned today that n bond of JiOtl.OUO francs ,
payable to bearer , was given to Dr. Cor-
nelliiH Heras compensation for his services
in "advertising. " The examining magis
trate lias impounded all the traceable bens
ail pottinand all of Baron do Kelnach's let
ters relating to Panama canal affairs in Ib'.H )
and 18ll ! , us well as a document written by
M. Barho , acknowledging the receipt of GOO-
IKX ) francs from Iho Panama canal ) oiplo.
1'rovont do I jiu'noy advised the investiga
tion commission to summon and examine the
men who had hccn ministers of Hie Interior
fn recent years. They , he said , know every
thing about the canal frauds.

Tlio commission decided to examine M.
Yves-Guyot , radical deputy for the Seine , to
learn whether or not he said recently that a
list of tno compromised members of parlia
ment had neon submitted to President
Carnot. This Is the first official mention of
President Carnot's name In direct connection
with the scandal. Many believe that 11 hos
tile motive is rcsponsibln for its introduction.
M. Carvalle , secretary of the Gaulois Pub
lishing company , refused to give the unmoor
the person who published in the Gaulois on
November 21 an article concerning the cor
rupt uses of money by the canal company.
The article was written , ho said , by a man
of very high stand Ing and accurate informa
tion as to thu company's affairs.
M. Floquct , president of the Chamber , ex
cused himself hy letter from appearing be
fore the commission today , as ho was obliged
to prcsido over the Chamber. Tomorrow , at
10 a. m. , ho wrote , ho would appear to tes
tify.
tify.Tho commission then adjourned until to
morrow morning.
Senator Albert M. Grovy was examined
' for two hours today by Magistral o Kramiue-
vlllo.
vlllo.Tho do ltouledo-Clcmcncp.au duel has not
yet boon arranged. DoKoulede , althoughac-
ceptlng M. Cleincnceau's conditions , desires
' 'to imvo the affair" referred to a court of arbi
tration which shall dellno who was the oP
fender. The duel consequently has been
postponed indefinitely.
His stated this evening that a hundred
li j ; . checks bearing the names of senators ant
deputies have been secured by the examining ,
magistrate.

Immediately after the opening of the
Chamber of Deputies today , Jules Hocho
minister of commerce , whom the procurci
general yesterday was authorized to prose
cute for sustaining corrupt relations will
the Panama Canal company , ascended the
speaker's tribune and made his defense. Ho
was laboring under intense excitement am
swung his arms violently as he walked u ]
the aisle. As ho passed the ministeria
bench , he faced about suddenly and ox
, , claimed : "Ohlyou hypocrites and scoun
d * dre.ls ! "
Several ministers retorted holly. In the
f confusion of tho' house , the incident was
noticed only by deputies on the front bunches.
As ho began his defense , M. Kocho's voice
was sharp and unsteady and from beginning
; to end. his manner was nervous and strained.
He said he did not know what enemies he
thad to face , nor did ho care , for his con-
scleuco was clear. IIo had nothing with
' which to reproach himself. His most ven
omous enemies could not connect him with
the lottery bond affair , as ho did not oven
vote on the bill. Ho denounced the pro
curer general for proceeding against
deputies on insufficient evidence , and de
clared that in his ease at least , these gentle
men would bo found to be sadly in error.
While passing back to his seat M. Roche rev -
v colvcd ninny congratulations from his fellow
, members. _

Losuox , Dec. 21. The Paris correspondent
of 4ho Dally News points-out the futility ol
M. Houvicr's defense , who , ho says , in truth ,
sought the assistance of the royalists to
Iceop Clemenceau and Floquqt out of oftlco at
the time when Boulangism was synonymous
of radicals.
"It was only after the fall of Grevy , " the
correspondent continues , "and the advent ol
the Floquct-Goblot ministry that the royal
1st * Joined' Boulanger ! Constnns hail
denied the treasury of secret service money ,
ahd therefore It was Floquot's cabinet anil
not Houvler's that wanted the sinews ol

once occurred in his preseneo on meeting the

was minister of linanco. The old man's eye ;
flashed withanger as he referred to the prevalent
valont corruption. "Formerly , " ho said
"Oild republicans were known knaves win
loved only pleasure ; today theyaro pleasure
seekers who wallow In sensuality.
"Tho stubs of the do Heliiach checks , '
the correspondent adds , "weio photograpliei

with ballot , ladies , and the book was returned
turned to the baron after" M. Constans hai
obtained copies. "
The correspondent further says : "It i

The property in question is owned by busi

for a hearing In SI" " . . City , January ! 1.
This line Is n bioux City enterprise , and

and the remainder of the directors are all
Sioux City business men. The pro
jected line runs east to Anthon. thence
southeast to a point In the northern part of
Crawford county. There it brandies , one
branch reaching Story City and connecting
with the Iowa Central and the Chicago &
Northwestern. The other branch continues
southeast through Deeatttr county into Mis
souri , when ; it connects with the Chicago , Bur
lington &Qulncy , and by that line with the
Baltimore iV Ohio.
As projected , the line would cross the Chicago
cage , Hock Island & Pacillo about 100 miles
west of Des Moines , but it is understood
overtures are being made to bring the line to
Des Molnes and use the Wabash tracks from

gram to Tin : Bm.J : Judge Woolson this
morning sentenced H. 10. Graves , presi

bank , to live years in the penitentiary , the
minimum term. The bond on appeal was in
creased to § 15,000 , and the defendant was
given till January 8 to illo a bill of excep
tions.
Graves' trial has been very closely watched
by business men all over the state , as tlio
defendant was a prominent man in financiiU
circles in Iowa for many years. The criti
cism is on his management of tlio Commer
cial ban Ic , as ho did n most unwise tiling in
assuming the control of the bank , and then
did not attend to its management personally
as closely as ho should have done. He also
allowed J. 1C. Graves to borrow large sums
of money for speculative purposes , which did
not , from the evidence produced , appear to
bo secured. With the knowledge that very
largo overdrafts had been made and not ac
counted for in the entries , the books were so
skillfully manipulated as to deceive the
eomjitroller in regard to the bank's condi
tion.

NF.W YoitK , Dee. 21. Olio of the largest
purses over offered Tor two pugilists since
the iliiys of the celebrated lighter Flgg was
hung tin tonight for Pugilists .lack MrAnllffo
niul Dick Hurgo h,1udgo Newton of the
Coney Island Athletic rlub. 'I'ho sum which
tin- great seaside club offered for the battle
Is f4 : > ,0im.
The latest bid completely overtops the
& 10.000 put-so which Captain U'illlainsof the
Croseeut City club of Now Orleans made
for Ilia light Wednesday morning , and will
undoubtedly create a big sensation In spurt
ing ciivlcs.
'I'ho put-so was extended for the two
lightweights for their ai-ccptaneo at the
St. .lames cafe tonight. The only persons
present wore MeAiillffe , Kddle Sloddard , his
trainer ; Judge Xowton. representing the
Coney Island Athletic club ; I'lill D\vyer and
Captain Frank Williams of the Cresi-ent
City Athletie club. When the party had as
sembled , MeAuliffo aslied Newton if he pro
posed to raise the ante of $ KOHK ( ) .
' Yes.1' replied the judge , ' -1 do , and my
bid isir > ,000. "
McAuliffo then informed Newton that the
amount was satisfactory , but he would first
see what Captain Williams had to say in the
way oC raising the amount.
The New Orleans match-maker seemed
Hr.st to have to tolem-.iph his club in New
Oi'leans and uwait instructions before be
could bid higher. McAulllTo then suld
ho would sign tirtHus of agreement
to light Iiiuro before the Coney Island Ath
letic club for a $1 ! > , ( ) tX ) purse , providing that
the stipulations be made in the document
that Dick lioche. his backer , would approve
of the match. That being satisfactory to
Newton , articles of agreement were immedi
ately ilrawn up and slimed by MeAulUTe.
Newton also attached his signature and
likewise acted as witness. The agreement
stipulates that both men are to light at ! ! ?
pounds , championship of the world. Nothing
is mentioned about the loser's end , that be
ing only a secondary consideration ,
Captain Williams last night telegraphed
his club of its rival's latest mtjve and asked
for Instructions. Williams informed a re-
pru'ter that ho expected a reply in about live
hours. Burgo has already signed , so it looks
as if lliu north would be the scene of the
battle.

IN THE JURY'S HAND.
Ivlilitnrn Submltti-il In tlio rams .Murder
Trial A I'lru ol In.sanlty.
The trial of George Fau.ss was completed
yesterday afternoon , and the life of that
young man is now in the bands of tlio jury.
Tlio defense put but two witnesses on the
stand , the defendant himself , and his former
employer , Herbert 11. Hopkins of Siou.City. .
Fauss tcstillod that ho shot the girl , but illil
not know why he did it , neither did lin know
why ho shot himself. Ho said that the
deceased had a revolver in her hand when
the ilrst shot was Jired. and ho was sitting In
a chair some distance away. Ho ran to her
and took the weapon away from her and
shot her. The effort of the defense was lo
prove that the first shot was the fatal one ,
and that it was aecidentallj Jived by tlio
girl herself.
Hopkins testified that he believed tlio de
fendant to have been insane for sovei-ai
months. Ho was known to the employes
about the establishment as "Crazy George'1
and "the Cra/.y Dutchman , " and the witness
said that he acted in a peculiar manner ,
mumbling to himself and making models for
a drawbridge that he bald ho wan going to
have erected across the Chicago river. One
unfortunate admission jn the part of the
witness was when he was asked as to how
tlio condition of the dofendantat the present
time compared with what it was a few
months ago. Ho said that It was now very
much worse , and tlio attorney dropped him
like a hot potato. The jailer and jail phybi-
cian , who had seen the prisoner every ilay
since his incarceration , said that he luul
never shown any symptoms of insanity , but
was of a sullen disposition , and was thor
oughly ungrateful for favors shown him.
Tlio arguments in tin ; ease oecupi'id about
live hours , and during much of the thins tliu
defendant sat with his face burled in his
hands. Ho was very nervoiw all through
the trial , and when on the stand broke down
completely when confrontcd vith the con
fessions that lie Hindu noon utter the shoot
ing to a representative of TUB Hii : and to
the' Hherln" several days Ui * . .T , when being
taken from the hospital to the jail.
