Huntington Affects To Treat tn. Entire
Proces diuEs as of small Con
sequence.

New York. April 22-coilis p. Hunt
ington. president OF the Southern Pa
eific railway. was arrested today on the
charge of giving a free pass to one
Frank Stone. In violation of the inter
state commerce law. President Hunt
ington was arraigned before United
States Commissioner Shields. He was
represented by Frederick Coudert.
Huntington admitted his identity. He
was taken before Judge Brown OF the
United States district court for a war
rant of removal to California.
The indictment against Huntington
was found March 26 in San Francisco.
a certified cory OF which was sent Unit
ed States District Attorney MacFar-
lane. who notified the railroad president
to appear before the United States Com
missioner and furnish bonds. When
Huntington was arraigned Commits
sioner Shields said the only question he
could inquire into was one OF Identity.
which counsel for Huntington said
would be admitted. An order was then
made out holding him TO await the
issue OF the warrant of removal. Coun-
sci then went before Judge Brown OF
the United States district court and the
hearing was fixed for next Thursday at
o'clock, Huntington meantime being
allowed to go on his own recognizance.
Huntington said 10 a reporter after
the proceedings before Commissioner
Shields: II have known Frank Stone
for twenty-five years. He Is San
Francisco lawyer. would not call him
a wicked man. because a wicked man
would not do things that way. He Is
an innocent kind of a fellow. | sup

a pass; probably I did. but have given
out so many passes that / don't remem-
ber a third OF them. Passes usually
given out are indorsed as a rule mot
good outside and / presume his pass
was not so stamped and he took ad-
vantage OF II. / don't know anything
about the matter beyond that. for
don't pay any attention TO such things
In fact, don't care tuppence one way
or the other. II don't amount to any
thing anyhow. / really don't know
what action was taken In court this
morning. Some arresting business,
suppose II was, but / did not pay any
attention. Arrests are among the high
and low, and criminal procedure IL not
confined to any class. don't know
what will be done. / guess Frank got
the pass all right, but have not time
to attend to all the details. l have too
much else to do.
II think the root of the whole matter
lies In the fact that when I became
