Henncssy has referred frequently to tho "llttlo black book" in political speeches ho has mado lately, as con taining graft evidence ho gathered during his Investigation)! for" Sulzer. Though It was not given out, Hen ncssy has said, however, that has a shorthand record of tho confession nnd it was said that private detec tives hero hold another, which Whit man wants to comparo with Hennes sy's. Dlctaphono notes also will bo ex amined for persons understood to have heard tho confession, they will bo summoned before tho district at torney, and If they corroborate Uen uessy nnd tho private detectives, tho case undoubtedly will bo laid beforo the grand jury. It was considered unlikely that Whitman would make much progress with his Investigation before tho city election. EIO DIAZ IN SAFETY YF.KA CRUZ, Oct. 30.
