OPPOSE THE SENATE.
Newspaper Correspondents Show
ing Their Teeth.
Why They Did Not Answer the
Questions of the Sugar
Trust Committee.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-Demurrers to
the indictments against the two newspaper
coffes pondenis, Messrs. j. S. Schriev er of
the New York Mail and Express and E. j.
Edwards of the Philadelphia Press, who
refused to answer questions IS to the
source of the information before the
sugar trust investigation, were filed to-day
by Judge A. j. DttenhOefer. their coun-
sci. The day for the arguments in the
case has not been set yet.
The demurrers are alike in both cases.
Twenty-four separate grounds are sat up.
These include those heretofore made in
behalf of brokers who refused 10 testify
and others particularly applicable to cor
respondents. The demurrers urged that
the Senate resolution fails to show that
the investigating committee was en-
powered to try any Senator for disorderly
conduct, or that said inquiry was for the
purpose of assisting the Senate In any
legislative or judicial action. 1t is also
sci up that 10 answer the questions pro-
pounded to the correspondents would tend
TO criminate them and render them liable
to 4 criminal prosecution, fine and penalty.
would tend also 10 render them guilty Of
"a contempt of the Senate and its members
and liable to prosecution, fine and penalty
and would tend to degrade them In CON-
polling them TO disclose private, conf iden.
tial and pr vilsged comm unications.
The point is also made that the power
to punish for refusing 10 make answer
cannot be delegated by the Senate to this
court or to any court of the District of
Columbia.
The fourteenth objection is as follows:
THAT the laws under which the indict-
mentS were found are unconstitutional, in
that they violate the provision Of he con-
stisution of the United States, securing the
people in their persons, houses papers
and effects, against unreasonable searches
aud seizures, and declaring that no person
shall be compelled to be witness against
himself"

DETROIT, Nov. 24-CornelPs glory went
gimmeriDg this afternoon upon the field
of the Detroit Athletic Club. For the first
time in the history of the struggle between
the East, represented by Cornell. and the
West, represented by the University of
Michigan, the eleven ofF the Wolverine
State won. The score was: Michigan II,
Cornell 4.
For four years Michigan has fought val
iantly and unsuccessfully 10 attain victory
and the applause which greeted to-day's
honestly won contest almost made the
ground tremble. 1t was the grandest
struggle of the kind ever seen on Mich
igan soil. Pluck battled against pluck
and strategy fought with strategy, and
Michigan won by superior strength and
skill. by deeper cunning. but not by
greater pluck. Cornell was beaten fairly
and squarely.
The enthusiastic young men from Mich
igan's university are saving to-night that
to-day's victory places Michigan in posi-
ion as worthy to try conclusions with
