PENDANTS for trial. This was in the nature
of test case and the decision means that
Havcmeyer, Searles and Seymour, who
were recently indicted, and the newspa-
per men, Edwards and Shriver, who were
first indicted, will have to stand trial.
Judge Cole recites the facts leading up to
the indictments, and the lstatute of 1857
which provides for the indictment of wit
nesscs refusing to answer questions put
by congressional committees.
Remarks of Judge Cole,
Concerning the statute the judge says :
1T was not the intention of congress by
that section to enlarge or attempt to en-
large or define its own jurisdiction. but to
provide n method OF punishme mt of a wit
ness who should attempt to impede in the
manner stated in that section either
house in the lawful exercise of its con-
stitutional authority. Counsel for the
defendarts contend, in support Of the de-
murrcr, that the senate committee had no
jurisdiction under the terms of the reso-
lutlon set out in the indictments to in
quirc into the subject whether senators
had been dealing in the stock of the
sugar refining company, generally known
as sugar stocks, during the pendency
of the tariff bill in the senate and that
the said questions set forth in the indict-
ments have no materialitv or pertinency
to any other question before the commit
tee, and that consequently the defendants
are guilty of no offense in declining to
answer the questions put to them. 1t is
not denied that the senate might have
jurisdiction to inquire into this subject
under certain circumstances, and by n
proper resolution confer that jurisdiction
upon committee, but the objection is
that the facts and circumstances under
which that jurisdiction might be cxer-
cised do not appear in this resolution
Questions Were Pertinent.
After disposing of the jurisdiction of the
senate in favor of the government, Judge
Cole discussed the pertincncy of the ques-
tions asked, and declared that any court
would have held the questions to be mate
rial and pertinent to the subject under in
vestigatiOn. As to whether the witnesses
were subject to be excused on grounds
personal to themselves, the Judge holds
that the questions We're not such as to
criminate themselves. ''Their business
was a perfectly legitimate one," he saws,
land they are as much at liberty to deal
with senators as any one else
As to the contention that the report of
the investigating committee and the cer-
tificate of the vice president in the cases
of the witnesses should be set forth in the
indictments, Judge Cole holds that neith-
er is necessary. He therefore overrules
the demurrer. At the conclusion of the
reading of the decision Attorney .Jere
Wilson of the defendants counsel, gave
notice that he would appeal to the Dis
trict of Columbia court of appeals

Nov. Il. from Constantinople that
5000 Armenians, including women

Annual Report.

Commissioner Wade Hampton Makes His
Annual Report.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Wade Hamp-
ton, commissioner of railroads, has made
his annual report for the year ending
June 30 to the secretary of the interior
He notes the fact that notwithstanding
the industrial depression, the Union Pa
cific, which includes the Kansas Pacific.
Is the only one of the bond aided RAILWAYS
which, during the period mentioned
passed into the hands of receivers. The
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of this splendid system
by the operation under separate receiver
ships of its branch lines is commented on
as furnishing the most gloomy chapter of
railway literature published during the
last year. A personal inspection of the
properties of the Union and the Central
Pacific railway companies showed them
to be in excellent physical condition.
The Pullman strike of 1894 having. in
the opinion of the commissioner, fur
nished powerful argument in favor of
the right of the government at all times
to control the carrying of the mails and
to enforce the provisions of the Interstate
commerce law, he recommends that con-
gress take into consideration the propriety
of creating a national board of railway
arbitration. to whom all questions in dis
pute between railway corporations and
their employees shall first be submitted he
fore action Is had, and whose decision in
respect of all questions submitted shall
be final.
