His Opinion on the Wholesale Deporta-
finn PronositiOn.

His Opinion on the Wholesale Deporta'
ton Proposition.
CHARLESTON, s. @, September %.
The Plain Speaker, a weekly paper, pub
Iished here by colored men, has an edito-
rial on the proposed removal of the colored
race to some other territory. 1t says
''The idea Of deporting millions Of free
American citizens TO Cuba, Mexico, or any
other place, ia simply preposterous. Our
position touching the subject is this:
We understand our constitutional rights
and consider it presuwptiOus on the part Of
any one to dc. ate to freemen rs to wtethtI
they must 90 or stay" In communities,
however, in which the colored people are
badly treated, it advises them TO remove
to some other State, where such prejudice
does NOT exist.

Unconstitutional.
AUBURN, y. Y, September 2O.-The
hearing on the testimony taken by the
referee in the Kemmler habsas corpus Gaze
was begun on it's merits before Judge
DAILY to-day. Burke COchrane made an
argument against the cOnstitutiOnality ol
the law for electrical execution, taking the
ground that the testimony showed such
execution to be uncertain, cruel and in
human. The Attorney General appeared
for the State and submitted his brief at A
o'clock, at which time the arguments
closed. Il is believed that the Judge will
declare the law of execution by electricity
as Unconstitutional.

NEW YORK, September 2O.-Two bright
red spots marked the otherwise pale face
of Henry s. Ives when he went into the
Court room this morning. He also looked
tired and weary. The excitement Of yes
terday, owing to the complete change of
front in his favor, had unnerved him. 1t
was only when Mr.. Brooks, his counsel,
wreathed in smiles, took him warmly by
the hand that Ives frightened up The
nsrvine was not lasting, for he soon lapsed
into deep revery and seemed unconscious
of surroundings.
HE WILL NOT TESTIFY.
The vexed question as TO whether or not
Ives will or will not be placed on the wit.
ness stand has been settled. Mr. Brooks
said when spoken to to. day that it had
been definitely settled that Mr.. Ives would
not 20 on the stand.
AS soon as Court opened there was
another move made that for brief period
seemed 10 startle everybody.
81 want Mr.. Julius Dexter, President
of the O.. H. & D, placed before the bar
of this Court. He has interfered with a
witness and l want him produced" said
Mr.. Brooks.
"How can I get him?" asked the re-
corder.
II demand that the District Attorney
may produce him, as Mr.. Dexter is COM
plainant in this case"
Mr.. Brooke then went on to say that
Mr.. Dexter had attempted to prevent the
cOlored porter of the road, J. H Jennings,
from leaving Cincinnati, and in con-
sequence the witness would not be able to
get here until TO- morrow morning.
ADJOURNED UNTIL MONDAY.
Ives made an affidavit in Court to the
effect that J. Il. Jennings, the colored
porter, was an important witness, and
was on his way to this city. Mr.. Brooke
then moved for an adjournment until to.
morrow morning. The District Attorney
opposed this on the ground that Saturday
being a half holiday the proceedings could
only last an hour. Finally an adjourn
ment was had until Monday morning at
IL o'clock.
