managers Association.
Chicago, Feb. 5.-At the opening of court
to-day, Mr.. Walker asked on behalf of
the government that the cases against
Denis Larkin. John Barke, Frank Dreyer
and James Mcdonald be dismissed.
Judge Grosscup dismissed these four
and announced that he would let the
jury pass on the cases of the directors of
the American Railway Union. The de-
tense asked him yesterday to dismiss the
cases without a further hearing in re-
gard TO John F. McVean and Martin J..
Elliott, the two least active of the d.
rectors. The Judge said he would take
their cases under consideration.
The defense began it's case by putting
on the stand President Thomas of the
chicago and Western Indiana railroad.
Mr.. Thomas was questioned about the
general managers association. He said
the association had considered the aues-
ton of reduced wage schedule for EN-
ployes OF the roads centering in Chicago.
Attorney barrow put the witness through
hot examination as to the objects and
methods of the association, and it's action
in combining to defeat the American Rail-
way Union in the big railroad strike
which was admitted.

Association were for the first time pro-
duced in court
Among those for whom subpoenas have
been issued is George NJ. Pullman.
In passing on the question whether the
testimony concerning the switchmen
striking should be admitted, Judge Gross
cup said; i think when this case gets
to the jury 1t IS going to turn on what
was the real motives and purposes of these
defendants in instituting the strike in
1894"
This ruling is regarded as a distinct vic.
tory for the defense.

to-day that his answer to the writ OF man
damus issued from the Florida supreme
court to show cause why he should not de-
liver his Office and records to his sue
cessor, John T. Geiger, were forwarded
to Tallahassee last night. The main point
covered by the answer is to show that
the election in Duval county on Oct 2,
1894 at which Mr.. Johnson was defeated
for reelection, was not a legal one This
it is believed. will be hard to show, since
the vote cast has been certified by both
the county and state canvassing boards
as correct and legal, and certificates and
commissions have been issued to those
elected at that election. Were the court
to decide the election Illegal lawyers say,
it would not help Mr. Johnsons cause,
as the governor would then fill the office
by appointment, and those appointed
would be recommended by the county ex-
ecutive committee, which is opposed to
Mr.. johnson and his faction On the
other hand it is claimed by Johnson's
friends that he will remain collector un-
til his successor is elected and qualified.
