report questions to submit to the suprem,
Court submitted series which 1t wa
voted to refer to the Court. The question:
are very long. Both branches adjourned

Forty enthusiastic Republicans came tc

Mr.. Hale, in his remarks relative 10 the
order submitting questions to the Supreme
Court, said the Representatives assembled
here didn't desire a control the law didn't
give them, nor to ride roughshod over any
one, as they might have done days ago;

Maine will take that decision as final ex.
position OF the law upon the question OF
organization, and 1t will be expected that
everybody in the hall will accept 1t as laid

wRY WHITE REFUSES TO TESTIFY.
AuousTa, ME-, January lS.-Both
branches OF the Legislature quietly as
sembled to-day. The Republicans re-
NAMED away. The night at the Capitol
passed quietly with full guard on duty.
The only thing irregular this morning
was when G. W. Martin attempted to pass
the guard in defiance OF the police regula-
tions, he was summarily handled by the
police. The Fusionists are very retiCent
about expressing an opinion OF the events
OF last evening. They seem surprised and
are entirely unwilling TO converse upon
the subject. Wallace Il. White, whose
card OF denial OF bribery has been pub.
lished, has been summoned before the
Bribery Committee, but refused toappear.
Followingis his card:
10 Henry ingalls,, Chairman Investigating
Committee:
/ have received your summons TO ap-
pear before your committee charged with
the investigation OF the alleged bribery OF
7. B. Swan and Moses Hartman. | de-
cline to appear, for. the reason that you
are not competent to send for persons,
and not competent to administer q legal
oath and witnesses before You could swear
to anything without incurring the hazards
OF prosecution for perjury. II Swan and
Hartman had secured bribe they would
voluntarily swear falsely about it; and ii
they merely put up job, they would be
still more likely to swear falsely. When l
meet them want it to be before tribu-
nal that has power to enforce its DEGREES,
and 10 administer punishment. Your
House OF Representatives is illegally or.
ganized, or not organized at all, and II you
have any doubt OH that point | shall be
glad TO have you arrest me for contempt,
and then have the authority OF your pro-
cess tested by writ Of habeas corpus before
the Supreme Judicial Court. II am not
sustained by that tribunal 1 shall cheer
fully appear before your committee.
