the b holding that ought to have been sent TO the
Governor both bodies having acted upon It, He thought
best way OF the difficulty would be for the Senate
10 reconsider its vote.

WHY THE PRISONER SHOULD NOT BE ADJUDGED IN
CONTEMPT
IFRoM THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE TRIBUNE. ]
ALBANY, Feb. 27.-Sergeant-at-Arms Goss seized
the first opportunity to-day to inform the Senate
that he had arrested William Mcdonald. The
prisoner looking scared, was led before the Lieu
tenant Governors desk, and Mr.. Hill informed him
that he was charged with contempt of the Senate.
Senator Murphy, leaping up, said 81 hold in nv
hands petition signed by the prisoner, saying that
he is ignorant of the rules of this Senate and asks
for counsel" Senator Gibbs offered resolution
granting permission to Mr.. Ecclesine to appear as
McDonald's counsel. The resolution was passed
Mr.. Ecclesine asked for a copy of the testimony
taken by the committee when McDonalds alleged
contempt of tue Senate occurred He examined the
testimony, and then complained that it did not con-
tain his own objections to the Questions OF the
committee. He argued that his objections showed
that tho Committee on Cities was attempting 10
exercise judicial powers lie demanded that he
should be furnished with all the testimony.
Senator Lansing moved that the counsel should be
limited to the testimony before him. The motion
was adopted.
MIR. ECCLEsINE'S ARGUMENT.
Mr.. Ecclesine then argued that Mcdonald was
not in contempt of tho Senate. The chief point of
this argument was that the Committee on Cities
had attempted TO get information from Mcdonald
in regard to his private business and that, therefore,
the committee exceeded its powers. lie argued that
the Legislature had only power to compel the
attendance of witnesses when an Investigation was
i'm progress to further legislation 1t had no power
to hold a court to detect crime 1t could inquire
into public abuses to get information to correct
those abuses Mcdonald was not public officer;
he was citizen who had furnished certain
materials to the Department of Public Works. 1t
was right to inquire whether Mcdonald did
actually furnish this material, but it was not right
to make inquiry concerning his private business.
He was engaged in the sale of coal, besides being
n contractor and it was when the committee began
inquirng into this private business that Mcdonald
refused TO answer questions. Mr.. Ecclesine quoted
from the case of KibOurne against Thompson to
show that witness could not be punished for
contempt.
The Senate ordered that all the testimony taken
while examining Mcdonald should be furnished
90 his counsel, and the matter was then passed by
until tomorrow.

STATE RIGHTS AND PLEURO-PNEUM0NIA.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRr5USE.l

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27-The fate of the Pleuros
pneumonia bill is still in doubt. motion in COM
mittee of the Whole to strike out the enacting
clause was lost by only four votes in total vote OF
232 The State Rights Democrats caught the
friends of the bill mapping and carried motion in
Committee of the Whole to strike out the fourth
section, which provides that whenever State in
which contagious deease exists to an extent that
threatens the animal industries of the Nation
fails to take proper measures for its extirpa-
tion OF to cooperate with the General Gov erninent
to that end, the President may declare said State
in quarantine, and regulate, prohibit, the trans
portation of ca tile therefr0m. aye and nay vote
is TO be taken in the House on this motion
and the friends of the bill hope 10
retain the section. In the course OF the
debate, Mr.. Cook, an Iowa Democrat, warned his
party associates that if they refuse to pass this
measure, which is regarded as one of vital conse-
auence by the agricultural communities Of the West
and Northwest, they need expect no help from
those communities In the coming political contest.
This warning and threat seemed to fall on deaf and
indifferent ears. While the Republicans voted
solidly in support of the bill on every amendment
offered, the Democrats, with, perhaps, score OK
executions voted as s0lIdly the other way. TX the
hill is passed, it will be as Republican party
measure and over the heads of the Democratio
majority in the House. Mr. Hatch thinks that 1T
will carry while its opponents, under the lead OK
Mr.. Randall, seem confident that his motion 70 re-
commit the bill will be adopted. Ii 1t should be,
