Wiman said:
81 am sorry Justice Barrett did not
try the case. There is something mys
terious about that. He had said he
would try it, and said he would sit in
general term week and then try me.
Had Justice Barrett tried the case he
could not have reversed his own decis
ion in the Phillips case against the
Connecticut bank. There he held that
the cashier had not committed forgery,
because he had right to sign checks
in the name of his firm. Justice
Ingraham said that would do in a
civil case, but not in a criminal one. No
doubt had / succeeded in my enter.
prises would never have been accused
of a crime. I have not one dollar to-day,
neither has my poor wife or children.

wife's private property, to secure those
to whom owed money. l am in abso

Mr.. Wiman will be present in court
next Wednesday morning when the
motion of his counsel for a new trial
will be heard and probably denied,
after which the fallen financier will be
sentenced.

ON THE COLOR LINE.

An Interesting Debate In the American
Railway Union Radical and Extreme
Sentiments Expressed by Delegates on
Both Sides of the Question-President mt
Debs' Tribute to the Intelligence Of the
Colored Man.
CHICAGO, June l9.--After a debate
that occupied nearly nine hours. and
was participated in by over 100 dele
gates, the American Railway union ad-
journed last evening without reaching
any decision upon the proposition to
establish color line in the organiza-
tion. The question was precipitated
by report of the committee on revi-
sion of the constitution, and which sub
mitted a new clause providing that
membership should include all railroad
employees born of white parents"
This raised a howl, and for the rest
OF the day the delegates did nothing
else than thrash over all the civil
rights arguments pro and con that have
been heard in court and from pulpit
and platform for the last thirty years.
At times the debate waxed exceed
ingly warm,
President Debs led the opposition,
which favored the striking out of the
words 'borr of white parents" This
would enable each local union to de.
eide the question of the admission of
colored members for itself. and would
also leave the officers free to organize
auxiliary lodges compose exclusively
of colored railroad men.
The southern delegates, aided by
some from the far west, fought hard
for the establishment of a race line.
President Debs said he was not
ashamed to say that many colored peo-
pie were his intellectual superiors, to
which southern delegate retortcd
that if he were to express the same
sentiments down south he might be
hanged.
Delegate Maypole, of La Junta, Col.
with A. p. Merriman and T. Il. Heaton,
of Memphis, bitterly opposed negro
recognition. Another southern dele,
gate warned his colleagues that if they
admitted negroes they would have nc
union south of the Mason and Dixon
line.
A Milwaukee delegate proclaimed
that if the obnoxious words were
stricken out he would organize lodge
of $50 negroes in that city within two
weeks.
/ Delegates Riker, of Montana. and
Adams, of Seattle. Wash. favored the
formation of separate lodges of color
ed men,.
Just before the arrival of the regu.
lar hour for adjournment the previous
question was ordered. On show OF
hands those who voted for and against
the proposition to strike out the words
"born of white parents" seemed about
equal. scene of uproar and turmoil
ensued. Each side tried its best te
shout the other down. A ballot was
demanded, but the chairman was un
able to make himself heard above tht
din, and finally an adjournment until
tomorrow morhing was carried by an
overwhelming majority, the conven-
ton evidently desiring breathing
smell.

ANOTHER GUY FAWKES.

A Diabolicai Plot to Blow Up ths Nationa
Capitol and Many Other Public Build.
ings, Which Has Been In Course of De-
tclopment for Weeks, Closely Watched
by the Government Secret Service Agents.
WASHINGTON, June ls.--The Post to-
lay publishes an expose of plot which
had for his object the blowing up Of
the capitol and perhaps other govern

developing for several weeks past.
The secret service and police authori.

three weeks ago, when the channel OF
information was Unexpectedly inter.
rupted, were the federal and dis.
trict authorities really alarmed.
They did not know at what moment
an attempt might Dc made 10 ex'
plode bombs in the capitol, the
treasury building, the White House
and the war and navy building. But
as the days passed and nothing was
done, the authorities, who had re-
doubled their vigilance, restored the line
of communication with the nest of an
archists and were able again toshadov
every conspirator and to keep fully in

here and elsewhere"
The plot was formed at the time
COxey's army was marching on the
capital and reports Of its existence
came from various points-Omaha
Chicago and Pittsburgh among them

plot-that is, the Washington end of il
