damages for arrest and imprisonment by the de-
fendant under the order OF the House of Repre-
sentattves in 1876, and q motion was filed to set

OF excessive damages and error.
MT. Smith closed by declaring the damages ex-

and for no other reason, for this alone it should
be set aside.
Col. Totten claimed that all the testimony
onered in the case was relevant and properly ad-

was not too large and should not be disturbed by
the court 1t was an exceptional case, and re-
