The coroner'S jury exonerated Dep

said his reason for removing the pris-

was that he fearedsan attempt at res

concerning the shooting was as fol-

QUESTION OF PRIVATE RIGHTS.
Arguments on the Demurrer o
Mccartney and ChapMun.

Washington, D. c., Oct 15-Argu-
ments were closed today in the District
Supreme court on the demurrer of Nc
Cartney and Chapman to the indict-
ment against them for refusing to an
swer questions of the Sugar trust in
vestigating committee. Assistant Cen
eral Attorney Conrad, for the govern
ment, attacked the defense's claim of
freedom from inquisition, saying:
when a bankers books are made the
depository of evidence of crime, the
production of those books does not con-
stitute invasion of private matters. 1t
must be remembered that these wit
nesses did not claim exemption on
grounds of personal danger to them"
Jere Wilson, for the defense, laid
especial stress on the plea that the res
olution did not show on its face that it
was the purpose of the Senate to take
action on the results of the committee s
Investigations. Mr.. Wilson maintained
that the buying and selling of stocks,
matters of daily occurrence in every
commercial center of the world, Gas
as legitimate as the buying and selling
of horses, or rice, or anything else. He
characterized this attempt to investi-
gate such alleged speculation of the
Senate as an impertinence and an aim
less injury destined to cast a slur on
somebody. The real point at issue was
whether the resolution was such a one
as would justify citizen in refusing to
testify concerning his private business.
The plea could not be set up that as
the Senate had the power to expel it's
members this information was neces-
sary to that body. He asserted that
the Senate never intended to expel any
member The history OF the investiga-
ton showed that at least one senator
had openly said: Yes, l bought sugar
stock; what are you going to do about
it?"
Whereupon Mr. Wilson said, the sem
ators from way-back and nearby had
held their peace. Judge Wilson argued
at length the analogy between the SEN
ate resolution and the resolution of the
House of Representatives IN 1878, when
Kilbourne was arrested for refusing to
testify, and the United States Supreme
court held that the investigation did
not show any purpose to do anything
in the future and sustained Kilbourne
in refusing to show his private records.
He cited quite number of other ca SEES
and concluded by declaring that if the
citizen was not protected against such
Inquiries, the invasion of the rights of
the citizen would be absolutely endless
and the sanctity and sacrednessN,f his
private affairs would cease.
The court took the motion to dismiss
on demurrer under advisement. and
will render its ruling in a few days.

Freak of n Lunatic.

Elizabeth, N J., Oct. 15.-Mrs. Jennie
Harrigan and three children persisted
by fire in a barn upon their farm in
the suburbs of this city today. The
residence was also burned. The gen
eral belief is that Mrs. Harrigan be-
came suddenly insane, set the house on
fire, took the children into the barn
and locking the door, set the hay on
fire. The eldest of the children was
6 years of age; the youngest IA months.
Ny Harrigan, peddler, went to
Newark this morning to- SELL his wares
When neighbors attracted by the smoke
reached the Harrigan house they found
box of wood on fire in the house and
that was quickly eXtinguished. The
flames in the barn, however, had
gained such Roadway that nothing could
be done until the flimsy structure had
been burned to the ground and the fate
of Mrs. HarrIgan and her three children
became known. Mrs. Harrigan, who
was 80 years of age, had shown no signs
of insanity, though for a, time she had
been respondent over the circumstances
of herself and family.

Linooln's fallacy is easily exposed.
America paid for English goods mostly
in cotton, corn, tobacco, beef and pork, a
kind of barter business with a cash
balance usually due from England. That
is somewhat altered now, England's free
trade policy having fostered the raising
of cereals and mutton in Australia and
New Zealand, and given Canada front
place for wheat and beef. Naturally, also,
if prices rule about equal, she gives the
preference in her trade to countries that
are well-disposed to her, such as Russia,
and Hungary, for her breadstuffs, but she
in no way handicaps American products
not even cotton, in faver of her Indian
possessions. On general principles, then,
business men should all support Demo.

A HINT TO FARMERS.

1t was recently stated in a Las Vegas
publication that Hon. T. A. Manzanares
was interesting himself in introducing
new seed wheat among the farmers of
that region, the wheat on hand having
been exhausted by repeated planting
This is certainly a commendable work.
worthy of the attention of all men who
have at heart the good of the people of
New Mexico.
For years there has been sort of an
unwritten rule among the older agricul.
turists of New Mexico that seed had to be
introduced very carefully into this coun-
try. They have contended that corn, for
instance, in order to do we'll above an al
titude of 1000 feet had to be brought up
to that elevation by degrees, and that
the best results were obtained from seed
corn brought into New Mexico via Ell
Paso, Texas. This Is all wrong. Here
in Santa Fe this year the very best corn
grown has been brought direct from
Missouri, and this seed has produced
stalks from twelve to fifteen feet in
height carrying from three to five large
ears of corn, while the native seed has
yielded not one-half the product in grain
or fodder. We commend this matter to
our native farmers in hopes that in an
other year they will decide to modernize
their methods and thereby get just about
double the benefit they now secure from
an acre of ground.
