SUGAR SEARLES ACQUITTED.
a Verdict Rendered Under Insiruc-
tons Of the Court.
Judge Bradley Held That the CUES
lions Asked by the Senate Sugar
Committee were an Unwarranted
Prviug Into Private Affairs.

Washington. June I'm the case Oh
John +. Searies. The sugar trust Wit
neess. Judge Bradley to-day ordered
the jury TO bring in a verdict OF ac-
INITIAL holding that the questions ask
cd the witness by the Senate commit
tee were not pertinent and if so were
not within the Jurisdiction Of the COM
mittee.
The Judges opinion was exhaustive.
II had been reduced TO writing. He
pointed out that Mr.. Searles had point
ID out specifically that no money had
oeen contributed by the sugar trust to
he national campaign, or for the pur-
nose of influencing legislation or the
action of the United States Senators.
As TO the local contributions, Mr..
searles had testified that he did not
know how the contributions had been
used. by whom or for what purpose.
The questions put to the defendant
were said 10 be pertinent TO the Sec
ond and third divisions Of the Sena-
toriaI inquiry. namely, as to whether
tbe sugar trust had contributed sums
70 campaign funds for the purpose OF
influencing the election of a United
states Senator. and whether any Sena-
TOR had been a party TO a compact with
the sugar trust.
Certainly. the Judge said, a simple
Investigation as to whether the sugar
trust had contributed to a campaign
fund would be an unwarranted search
in the private affairs of the company
and placed it under the power Of the
Senate. The Senate committee had re-
ported that no testimony had been pro-
luced to show that the sugar trust had
made any contributions TO any ma
doral campaign funds or for.the pur-
nose Of affecting legislation. If money
had gone for the purpose of electing
members of State Legislatures who in
time would elect a United States Sena-
tor. IL was beyond the power of the
United States Senate to go behind the
election of legislative members. If
this were true as TO State matters, how
much more true was it of local elcc-
tons? Tt would be the widest conjec-
tlre to assume that the money so con-
tributed in any way had gone to make
up the sugar schedule.
1t appeared from the report Of the
committee that they were not in pos
session of any facts upon which they
could base the most remote hope of
showing an ultimate connection be-
tween the sugar trusts contributions
and the sugar schedule Under these
circumstances it must be held that the
questions asked were not pertinent,
and if construed to be pertinent, that
they were an unwarranted prying into
the private affairs of the company,
and therefore beyond the jurisdiction
Of the Senate.
Judge Bradley therefore sustained
the motion of the defense and ordered
the jury to return a verdict Of acQuit-
tai The jury accordingly rendered
verdict of not guilty, and Mr.. Searles
was free
The cases of 3. J. Edwards and John
s. Shriyer. the newspaper correspond
