Commissioner Cohen. Has the District Attorney for
the United States anything to show why this protest
should not be put on filel
Mr. Hunton: May it please the Commissioner. think
il matter of very little consequence whether it be filed
or not fled II is the first time heard of protest
against judicial judgment have heard of protests in
legislative bodies, but in Judicial proceedings
have no objection, however to its being filed; for
have already said, look upon il matter of
sequence whether it Is filed not But in permitting it
to be filed. wish to be understood as granting conces
sion, mol yielding right.
MI F6uihouze: The consul, in presenting this pro-
test. does in the defence Of his legal rights II your
honor will refer TO Eliotts Diplomatic Code, you will
lind your imperative duty 10 weigh that protest The
consul cannot be held to bail or sent to common Jail by
commissioner.
Commissioners Cohen. have frequently acted as CON-
missioner, but have never before known of protest
being entered in the OF investigation, al the
termination OF it, II is unusual but consider il limo.
cent and il the consul thinks proper, ii he thinks it
work him any good he can file it. II is unusual but
think innocent.
The protest being fled the prisoners came forward and
rendered bail in the severay required OF them
which was accepted and the court adjourned.
