The senate committee has been attempt
ing to secure the nttciidnuec of Thurbei for
some weeks past All such attempts hnvu
been heretofore mot with statements from
him to the effect that lie wuh too busy to
uppear before the committee Itecently
Tbuiber haN been threatened with arrest
unlcs he conipllrd with the summons of
the committee and today ho nppenred be-
fore t
During the course of his testimony he
stntcd in nnswer to ipicstlong by Senator
Teller that he bad done considerable work
In the way of distributing reciprocity propa-
ganda and that the cost of this work has
been borne largely by the Cuban commit-
tee Thereupon Mr Teller produced u
voucher secured presumably from tbe wtr
department showing that by order of
Governor General Wood 2S80 hud Men
paid the United States Ilxport association
of which Tliurber Is president for services
In distributing among leaders of thotiriit
In Jhls country a large number of circular
letters advocating reciprocity with Cuba
Tliurber admitted Hint the voucher was
genuine Later he admitted that an ag
giogate sum of about JL0000 for similar
services had been paid him by tbe mili-
tary government of the United States In
Cuba and by President Havcmcycr of tho
American Sugar Itcflnlng company other-
wise known ns the trust
The news of the facts brought out luring
the hearing caused more general Interest
than any other one development lu con-
nection with tbe reciprocity matter with
the possible exception of tbo defeat tf the
ndmlnlstratlonlsts In the bouse by rlio lcct
sugar men and the democrat
It Is generally admitted that Senator Tel-
lers coup has glveu a death blow to all
reciprocity plans Inasmuch ns It positively
shows that the sugar trust has been spend g
Ins money to Inllueuco legislation lu tbe
premises The democrats have charged this
all along and tbey nre tbeiefore as highly
elated ns are tho beet sugar men who thluk
their battle Is now won
The voucher brought to light by tbe Col-
orado senator will also It Is thought haro
the effect of preventing the president from
carrying mil his plan of making Wood u
major general
Knougb luformatlon regarding Woods ex-
pel dilutes In Cuba wn brought out two
weeks or so ago to warrant ail Investiga-
tion but Secretary Hoot assumed all respon-
sibility for tbe matter and the republican
In tbe bouse voted down the resolutions
providing for tbe Investigation
Now that It bus liccu shown that General
Wood used the funds of tbe Island lu at-
tempting lo Influence legislation In Dm
United Stales It Is not thought that the
administration will dare continue t8 spon-
sorship fur Wood and that It can not re-
sist efforts to get at the facts regarding
the exiicndlturrB made In hint
Its true pi ltlon vltli regard to this mut-
ter must now bo brought out for bluntly
ifter hearing of the developments leforo
the sennto committee Senator Cttlbirson
introduced a resolution directing the secre-
tary of war to send to congress a full
Itemized statement of all moueys collected
and disbursed by tbe authorities of tbo
United States In Cuba from the beginning
of the mlllUry occupation until the 20th
of last month when the government was
