WHArcoa. Feb. Especial. AN anus
ing incident occurred in the course of the
trial OF the case of the Fairhayen Land
Company VS.. E. A. Scott. which was con-
cnded Thursday in the superior court,
Judge Humes. of Seattle, on the bench.
George A. Black. who was land agent for
the land company at the time the property
in question was purchased. had just been
eross-examined at considerable length By
counsel for Scott, q prominent Tacoma
lawyer, and was about to leave the stand
when Judge Humes propounded a num-
Der OF interrogatories to him, svoking
some very interesting testimony. Scott's
counsel seemed 10 be considerably dis
taFbed in spirit. and when TIE Judge had
eonc.uded and Black had left the stand he
arose and said: "Your honor, I move
that all the testimony OF the witness which
was evoked by the questions of the court
be stricken out. as irrelevant, immaterial.
illegal and without bearing upon the case.
The Judge whirled around in his chair and
answered quickly: ''All right. / think

that kind oi questioning that l thought

SUNDAY BASEBALL.

citizen who had the pleasure OF learn.
ing OF the incident In question. On
the day referred to, while the bright
and CHEEKY sunshine illumined the
hooks and corridors OF the second
floor Of the City Hall, the Mayors
office was invaded by blue-nosed
individual In clerical attire, whose
very presence threw shadow across
the golden beams that played around
his H0nor's desk. The individual
was minister Of the gospel, who had
come to wrestle with John p. Hop.
kins on the question OF Sunday base.
ball.
He was accorded courteous hear.
ing, In the course OF whlch the clerl-
cal gentleman expatiated upon the
enormity OF catching men OUT" or
making "home runs" on Sunday
Such practices, he said, were wrong
and highly immoral. Mayor Hopkins
listened In mild surprise. When the
gentleman got through His Honor
announced that he used to play ball
on Sundays himself, and sometimes
attended a game even yet, and saw
nothing wrong or immoral about It,
The cleric was unable to specify any
particular enormities growing out OF
the game, but proceeded to hold out
threats. Then Mayor Hopkins an.
'nomced tkSaShe had beeS'elected by
the liberal.minded people OF Chicago,

a court composed Of his-Judge
observation-disclosures, and men who
unlike himself, are noted for their
judicial minds. their profound kpowl-
edge of the law and their fearless in.
tegrity-Judees Tuley, Adams and
Sears. These Judges reversed the
findings of Mr.. Chetlain by declaring
that he had no Jurisdiction over the
Election Commissioners whom he
had adjudged guilty of contempt of
court because they refused his order
to produce certain ballots in the
Grand Jury room, and VINO laughed
at the petty judicial bulldo7er and
his orders. because they were better
advised in the law than Chetlain
was. The court of review dis.
charged the Election Commissioners
under the habeas corpus writ. but
while these public officers were thus
being indicated by court composed
of the most respected and revercd
Judges of the Cook County bar, Judge
Chetlains grand jury was finding in.
dctments against them on the most
trivial, frivolous, and absurd grounds,
namely charge that they had done
something which it was impossible
for them to do.
To crown the glaring partisanship
and outrap eous unfairness Of the en-.
tire transaction this same grand jury
drew up and presented with these
and other indictments a TRADE Of
abuse leveled against the Democ attic
party. its local leaders, Democratic
public officials and others, every line
of which was spit Of envenomed
spite such as one might expect from
scorpion that had been trodden
upon. No wonder the four decent
and respectable members Of the Dem.
ocratic party who formed the minor.
ity Of the grand jury took occasion
to protest publicly against the find.
ing Of the nineteen offensive parti.
sans who allowed themselves to be
led by the nose, and made the fuglc.
men OF the cheapest of the 10.
cal Republican bosses. The grand
jury, through Its partisan ma.
jorlty, allowed itself to be USED
just as Judge Chetlain allowed
himself to be used-to pull those
gentlemen's chestnuts out Of the irc
and they got their fingers burned.
But the end Is not vet. The Democ.
racy Of Cook County, when pressed to
defend itself and its trusted sons, has
ever been able to hit back. This
time, unless all signs fail, 1t will
strike back and to some purpose.

insure his nomination on the first

to denounce Mr.. Wulf's alleged
iniquities. These seem to consist, at
least In Gen. Atkins mind, of
a vile conspiracy between Mr..
Wulff and Shelby NJ. Cullom to
assist each other in their respective
candidates.. 1t seems that Mr.. At

under the delusion that he was tho
beneficiary Of any Cullom combina.

OF entering into an alliance with Mr.
Cullom, and denounces both that gen
