JUDGE COBB TESTIFIES.
HOUSE COMMITTEE CONTINUES
THE WATSON INVESTIGATION.

Cobb Declares That He Was Not Drunk
and watson Reiterates His Belief That
He Was -Boatner and Watson Clash.
lBy Telegraph to the Evening Journall
WAsHIEeToN, Aug. 2.-The Watson in
vestigation in regard to drunkenness in
theiHouse was continued to-day. Mr. Cobb
(of Ga made a statement as to his con
dition while speaking in the Noyes-Rock-
well debate.
For three days previous to the debate
he was engaged in exhaustive labor on
the case and had but little rest. He had
also had an attack of the grip which af-
fected his throat and he had to send for
a cup of beef tea It was not true that
he called for more whiskey' as
stated.by Mr. Butler. There was brought
to him a little whiskey and he used it as
he would have done under the hand Of a
physician. He was as sober as he ever
was. If there was anything unusual in
his manner it was due to anxiety and
hurry. The story of the intoxication was
like the old story of the three black
crows.
Mr. Watson made a statement saying
thrt he did not mean to bring Judge
Cobb into this matter personally. His
charge was a general one and intended
to reflect upon the House for permitting
such action. He still believed that
Judge Cobb was intoxicated.
Here there were a few hot words be-
/ tween Mr. Watson and Mr.. Boatner
/ Mr.. Boatner saying he did not catch Mr.
! Watsons drift and Mr.. Watson saying
he did not think Mr. Boatner wanted tC
catch it. Several other witnesses testi
fed to Judge Cobb's sobriety.
The committee then closed the testi-
mony and another secret session was
| held.
