* Telegraphic?American News.
Montgomery, Ala., May 12.?The le?
gislative committee to investigate the
means whereby Spencer secured his
claim to the United States Senate, took a [
recess to-day. Over 300 pages of manu-1
script testimony of Republican wit-1
nesses prove the following facts: Before
tho election, Spencer went to Louisville I
to see Gen. Terry, and urged him to I
send troops to Alabama, for the purpose
of being used as a political machine to
intimidate Democratic voters. After the
election, a separate Court Room Legislo
turo was organized, because it was feared
that if both parties met together, the
Democrats would have control of the
organization and defeat Spencer. The I
Republicans who opposed Spencor wero
bought over with money and the pro-1
mises of appointments to office. In
order to get a quorum for the court room,
a body of men were sent for and paid to I
?come and represent Counties, not only
without certificates of election, but with
?out any pretence of election. In order
to defeat a quorum in the Capitol Legis-1
lature, one member was bribed by Hinds
and another was drugged to insensi?
bility. The money used in corrupting
the, members was Government funds,
borrowed for that purposo from the post
office and revenue officials. "When a I
compromise was proposed by Attorney
General Williams, it was found that!
unless one Democratic Senator could be
unseated, and a Republican put in his
.stead, the record would show that the
Court Room Legislature had no quorum I
in tho Senate, and that Sponcor's election I
was void. Thereupon, one Glass, the
Republican Senator from Macon County, I
was paid from.$300 to $500 to pair off]
with a Democratic. Senator in what was
known as the Miller and Martin contest, |
and violate his pledge. The Lieutenant
Governor, Melunstray, was to rule, and
the Republican Senators were to saction
bis rulings so as to decide the oontest
Before notice of the treachery could be
conveyed to the absent Democratic Sena
tors. The testimony of Robert Barber,
clerk of the court room of tho lower]
house, and also olerk of the same house
after the consolidation, is a sample of
tho whole evidence. It was as follows:
Barber, being duly sworn, testified as
follows: I was olerk of the lowor house
of the Court Room Legislature, and also
clerk of the House in the consolidated
Legislature. The object of the Court
Room Legislature was to secure the or-1
ganization and elect Gen. Spencer to the
United States Senate. We aid not think
this could be done if we met at the capi-1
tol. After detailing the means employed
by Spencer to shelve ex-Gov. Parsons J
and Alex. White, whom he had heard
would be rival candidates for the Senate,
the witness proceeds: I have letters from
Spencer relative to the uso of troops, but
as they are confidential I do not propose
to introduco them. The committee in?
sisted on seeing.the letters, and Barber,
after Consulting his counsel, introduced!
them. - Letter No. 2, dated Decatur, Oc
tobor 22, 1873, after stating what troops
bad been ordered to Alabama, and where (
stationed, proceeds thus: "I wish Ran?
dolph, Deputy United States Assistant ]
Marshal, would use the company at Ope-1
lika in making arrests in To llano oca.
Randolph sad Claiborno Counties. '
wish you would go to TaUadega and {
blook tho game. I must not,- howovor,

know Spencer's hand-writing, and theso
lotters are written and signed by him, I
and bear tho. impress of his seal and
motto. . The expreseion .relative to or
rests in Randolph and other Counties I
refors to ,a \a\tag received by me from
Randolph County, in which it was stated
that if troapn. could , bo a en t into the
Counties named, to, make a few arreaie, j
enough .votes could be run out of them}
to secure tho oloolion of tho Republican
candidates for.'the Legislature. I in?
formed Gen- Spencer of >hese facts, and \
? this is what that part of his letter refers
to. As assistant secretary of the Repub?

Baker an^Ihad tn'e special mano^om^t, I
of Spencor s election. In our conference^ j
I was informed that all the money needed |
to aoouro Spender's election vu pro?
vided, and in the hands of Hinds. It
was said that the Lowndes County dele?
gates, except Major Hunter, vero diaaf
feoted. This would defeat Spencer's
election, and we were informed that
$3,000 had been raised to disaffeot these
members, and that it had been deposited
subject to the order of Senstor Jones.
This we afterwards found to be un?
true, but not knowing any better
then, I was instructed to say to
Senator Jones that we had $2,500
subject to his order, conditioned
upon his holding the Lowndes County
delegation in the Court Boom Assembly.
Learning that Jones was attending a co?
lored ball, I sent J. N. Beach to inter?
view him and report. Sandy Bynurn,
John C. Hendrix and myself were se?
lected to watch the Lowndes County
representatives. Just before day Assist?
ant Sergeant-at-Arnis Dan Norwood came
out of the house where they wcro stay?
ing, and I gave him five dollars to re?
turn to woko them up, and tell them
that I wanted to see them. They came
out, and wo went to the Madison House,
where Spencer had ordered a breakfast
for their especial benefit. I then went
to Spencer s room and informed him
thnt I had them. He told me to conduct
them to his room, which I did. I told
them that Spencer had made up his
mind to give each of them an appoint?
ment, and Spencer, who was present,
promised them route agencies. During
the night I left Bynnm on the watch and
went to Spencor's room to suggest the
5>roprioty of sending to Lowndes County
or Bryant. Bryant arrived the next
day, and, us I understood, received $300
from Hinds, This seemed to fix the
Lowndes County delegation all right.
The Legislature convened that morning,
the Lowndes County delegation were
present, and voted for Spenoer. Many
members from other Counties were pro
raised offices. I was authorized by
Spencer to promise the members as many
offices as I might think necessary to
secure their support. It was under?
stood that Calvin Goodloe was to get a
Federal appointment, and that at the
Iiroper time he was to join the Court
.loom Legislature and vote for Spone.er.
Meanwhile he was to remain in a posi?
tion to have access to, and the confidence
of, the Capitol Assembly until his vote
was necessary at the Court Room Legisla?
ture to elect Senator Spencer. He ascer?
tained all he could of their movements
by going to the rooms of members of
that body and leading them into con?
versations and reported to Spencer. We
tried constantly to defeat a quorum of
the Capitol Legislature, and 1 was given
to understand that the plan had suc?
ceeded by disaffecting two members and
drugging another to insensibility. I
was given to understand that Mr. S. was
to be drugged, and was afterwards in?
formed that he had been drugged and
was lying somewhere insensible. This
was the night before the day fixed
by law for the election of United
States Senator. Witness then pro?
ceeds to detail how Parker and Chisolm,
two men from distant Counties generally
known to have been not elected, were
sent for and induced by tho promise of
office to enter the Court Boom Legislature
as Representatives of their respective
Counties, and proceed as follows: Par?
ker was appointed clerk of tho House
Committee on Internal Improvement.
He told me that he had also boen pro?
mised a Federal appointment, and ho
was afterwards appointed United States
Marshal for the Northern District of Ala?
bama. After the consolidation of the
two Legislatures, Chisolm was appointed
to a position in the Custom House in
Mobile. In the Miller-Martin contest for
a seat in the consolidated Senate, it was
decided by the friends of Spencer, the
managers before referred to, that Miller
should be seated. This was to bo accom?
plished by sustaining Lieu tenant-Go?
vernor McEinstray's rulings, whatever
they might be. In order to secure the
success of this plan, and get McKinstray
to make such ruling as would seat Miller
before the absent Democratic: Senator
could return, it was necessary, we
thought, for McKinstray so to rule as to
cut off all debate and secure a final vote.
It was thought that if McKinstray so
ruled, the Democratic Senators wonld
either holt or fight. To provide for the
latter contingency, picked men were, by
agreement, placed in the lobby of the
Senate chamber. Among these were H.
H. Betts, Charles Pelham, Sam. Olin, W.
G. Candoe, Milo Barher, J. J. Hinds, a
rough from Georgia, whose name I did
not know, and some five or six others,
whose names I cannot remember. I don't
know that McKinstray knew our plans,
but ho knew the men wo had stationed in
the lobby, and wo believed that ho would
so rule as to seat Miller at all hazards,
and thnt he would be strengthened by
their presence. Tho purpose was to show
him that he had friends there who would
bock him. We apprehended some dila?
tory notion by the Democrats, which
would prevent final action until tho re?
turn of the absent Democratic Senator,
Edwnrds. It was, therefore, necessary
to have final action that day, and Beat
Miller before Edwards got back. In
answer to a question as to what means
were used to induce Senator Glass to re?
main in Montgomery after Edwards, with
whom he had paired off on this question,
had left, the witness said it was under?
stood that Glass was to pair with Ed?
wards on this question; that the two
should go to the depot at the same time,
and that Glass should thence return to
the city, seemingly or apparently un?
known to Edwards, tho idea being to
make others believe that both men had
left at the same time. Both did go to
the depot at the same time, but Glass re?
turned and was secreted in a room at tho
Mansion House. To give him an exouse
for violating his pledge, I served a sub?
poena on him to appear as a witness in
the same case in which Charles Pelham
was attorney. I found A. R. Baker act?
ing as his door-keeper, and Baker, at my
request, handed Glass the writ Glass
was kept out of sight until the. vote was
being taken in tho Miller-Martin contest,
when he was informed, by signal. givon
from the front of tho Capitol, that, his
Bresonce was required.' He appeared in
io Senate chamber and gave, binvote for
the seating of Miller. I understood that
be was to be paid $300 or HQO for break*
ing faith with Edwards. ,rt ? { 0

At a meeting, to-day, of the Directors
of the Auxiliary Joint Stock Company,
the following preamble and resolutions
I were proposed, adopted and ordered to
I bo published for the information of the
public:
Whereas there appears to be a senti?
ment among certain of the influential
I patrons of the annual exhibitions of our

j pugnast to their ideas of propriety; and
whereas the Directors are desirous of re?
conciling all the elements of success in
connection therewith,
Resolved, That henceforth there shall
be no racing conducted under the
auspices of our association in connection
with our annual fairs, and that no pre?
miums be offered for the same.
Resolved, That the President, CoL D.
Wyatt Aiken, be requested to treat for a
loose of the truck and appurtenances.
Resolvetl, That the usual annual Fair
be held on the Fair Grounds, beginning
on Tuesday, the 9th of November next,
[ and centinuing through the week, in
[ conformity with the rules and regula?
tions of the premium list of 1874, exclu?
sive of so much as relates to speed pre?
miums. D. WYATT AIKEN, Presl^
