moved that the court instruct the jury
to order an acquittal on six grounds,
the principal one of which was that the
question asked was not pertinent.
District Attorney Davis made a val
liant attempt to induce the presiding
Judge to overrule the motion. The ques-
tion put to Mr. Havemeyer, Mr.. Davis
insisted, was pertinent to the inquiry.
1t had been allowed by the newspaper
articles, the truth of which the COM
mittee was investigating, that di-
rector of the sugar trust had stated
that the trust cared nothing for the
senate, He was quoted as having said;
I'VE own the United States senate,
body, boots and breeChes brain, NOR
ais and ALL" In the face of such allie
cations was 1t not the duty of the
committee, he asked, to find out wheth-
er the trust had contributed to local
elections, upon the result of which
hung the fate Of Unfed States senat-
ors?
The honor. dignity and integrity of
the senate was at stake In the inquiry.
Its purpose was to vindicate the purity
of the senate If the charges We're prov
en- to be false, and to adopt means of
purging itself of corruption, if such
corruption was found to exist. Mr..
Davis described the trust as con-
scienceless octopus" reaching from
coast to coast using the leverage of its
power in politics, by the admission of
its president, as a Republican in Re
publican states and as a Democrat in
| Democratic states.
AS to the pertinency of the question
relating to local and state political
contributions, Mr. Davis pointed out
how a United States senator, hard
pressed in his local elections, might
have appealed to the Sugar Refining
| company for funds, with the under
standing that if he triumphed, his vote
and influence would be at the disposal
Of the sugar trust, "That may be bru-
tally blunt" said the district attorney
but it is a possibility" As to the con-
tention of the defense that Mr.. Have
meyer should have been warned that
the question he declined to answer was
q committee question, Mr., Davis point
ed out that Mr.. Havemeyer was duly
/ warned that he was making himself
recusant,
Mr., Johnson for the defense, was
/ very severe IN his structures on the dis
| trict attorney for his inuendoes. The
/ senate's resolution creating the investi-
eating committee he pointed out, asked
| them to inquire what contributions,
| large or small had been subscribed to
/ the Democratic campaign fund to se-
/ cure the insertion of the sugar sched-
ule in the tariff bill as alleged He was
| proceeding to speak of the report of the
committee eXonerating the senators
