WASHINGTON, April s.-Beforo the Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs to-day Mr.. Tronor W.
Park narrated In detail the oircu INST atten-
dant on his payment OF tho additional sum OF
$4,000 to Lyon. After Lyon had received $3.50,
900 for all hts interest. aud subsequent to Stew
arts return to America, Lyon oamo to him
(Park) and threatened to bring suit against
Senator Stewart and embarass Parks operations
by tying up the stock in a court Of chancery.
Park told him plainly that he was aware this
meant blackmall and asked him how much no
wanted. Lyon thereupon said he had sold short
1,BO shares Of the Emma stock. and would be
ruined III he did not get Rl0,OOO. Park rejoined
that he was aware OF Lyons bad faith In thus
endeavorng to " bear" the market, but In order
to prevent legal complications ana injury to the
companv's shareholders he promised to give
Lyon $4,000 more after no park got through
with his pending business. Tns he subse-
quently did, taking from Lyon full and formal
discharge OF all claims against Stewart or tho
Emma Mine property or any OF the companys
dire ctOrs.

further testimony He said no had sold out all

the shares had been bulled up to the highest
point. The cable despatch warning Schenck TO
sell two thousand shares short just before the
bottom fell out Of the concern, he said, was not
sent by him. but might have been sent by Mr..
Gager whom he had instructed to send .t.
AS to schenck's bulllng letter OF resignation
as director, which Park Is alleged to have writ

Proceedings In the L nited states Court Mt II.
Iouia lesterdnN.


ST. LOUIS, April s.-The case OF Mckee,
on a motion in arrest OF judgment, was argued
In the United states Court this Afternoon.
The point made by McKee's counsel was
that the Circuit Court had not lad jurls-
diction OF the case, the original indictment
never having been remitted as required by stat
ute, upon only a copy Of which the defendant
had been tried. The Court stated that the point
was a novel one. and required counsel on both
sides to file briefs within six days.
During the argument, Judge Dillon interrupt
ed Judge Krum, and said II the position suG-
gested vas the same, then the defendant, had
he been acquitted on his trial. might have been
tried again on the original Indictment.
Judge krum admitted tins, and said the same
principle would be found to underiie u former
trial in this court
This was taken TO he a reference to Babcock's
trial. The defendant In that case was tried
and acquitted on transcript OF indictment
remitted to tho Circuit Court, and II
the motion in the Mckee case should

face new trial on tho original indict-
ment returned to the District Court.
the point Is oyerruled the defendant quay. on
n writ OF habeas corpus, carry the case to the
United States Supreme Court, and If this course
Is taken IL VIII be likely to POSTPONE 1nal action
Ia the matter almost indefinitely.
At the close Of the argument Judge Dillon In
formed Judge krum that the motion for arrest
should be to dismiss, and Judge krum accepted
the suggestion and modified his moslon accord
ngly.
