NEW JERSEYS TRUST LAWS.
why the State Is Popular With the Big
Corporations.3

Washington, Oct. 1S.-There were six
witnesses before the industrial commits
sion to-day The first witness was ]. B.
Dill a New York attorney, who was pres
ent an expert on the corporation laws
of New Jersey. Mr. Dill said that if the
corporation laws of the state were en-
forced the corporations would find it i'm
possible to exist there. Mr.. Dill gave sew
eral reasons for New jerseys popularity
with the corporations as an organization
state. The first OF these was found in
the fact that the state had u financial
surplus rendering il improbable that the
corporations would be drawn upon in
case Of Il squeeze to make up the deficit
Another reason for this popularity was
because the corporation laws have prac-
ucally remained unchanged for the past
30 years: and third was the fact that
the taxes in New Jersey are fixed and
immovahle. He thought the time would
come when the corporations would DO

five witnesses dealt with the practical op-

ANTl-IMPERIALlSTlC LEAGUE.
Strong Speeches Made and Vigorous Res
olutions Adopted,

Chicago, Oct. 1S.--Delegates to the
anti-imperialistic conference at Central
Music hall to-day resumed the task of
completing the organization OF the ma
tional anti-imperialistic league. J..
Sterling Morton of Nebra ska presided.
The first speaker Of the morning was
Herbert Myrick of Springfield, Mass.
II said it is a fundamental error to as
sumo that Imperialism, militarism or
any sacrifice of the tenets Of liberty
and self-government are essential to the
largest possible development of Amer
lea. internally or externally.
Following Myrick's speech general
discussion Of the Philippine question
occupied the time until noon. A public
mass meeting was then held, Congress-
man LentZ and Rev. Herbert S. Bige-
low of Cincinnati delivering speeches.
During Mr.. Bigelows speech sensa-
ton was caused by a stylishly dressed
extending her gloved hand toward the
American feg, which hung suspended
over the speaker, exclaimed:
Take down the flag, don't disgrace it
any longer"
She was hurried from the hall by a
friend. AS she left the building she re-
fused to give her name, but said she
was the sister of one soldier. daughter
of another and wife of another-all of
them now lighting in the Philippines.
The declaration of principles was
unanimously adopted. 1t denounced the
policy of Imperialism as hostile to lib
erty, as unconstitutional and as tend
ing toward mlitarisn. The policy of
the present administration Is con-
demned and the immediate cessation OF
the war in the Philippines is demanded.
Continuing, it says
We propose to contribute to the de-
feat of any person or party that stands
for the forcible subjection of any peo-
pie. We shall oppose for reelection all
who in the white house or in congress
betray American liberty in pursuit of
| un American ends. We shall hope that
both our great political parties will
support and defend the Declaration of
Independence in the close of the CEN
tury."
The declaration closes with an appeal
for the cooperation of 'al1 men and
women who remain loyal to the Decla-
ration of Independence and the consti-
tuition of the United States

HIS TESTIMONY ADMISSIBLE.
The Deposition of n Grain Broker to he
Taken in the Welcome Case.

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Helena. Oct. 1S.-The supreme court
to-day granted the motion made yes
terday by Attorney General Nolan
who is friend of the court, in the
Welcome disbarment proceedings, to
have the court issue a commission to
a Minneapolis attorney to take the de-
position of James Marshall, a grain
broker, as to dealings had with a mem
Der Of the legislature who, it is alleged,
paid the broker two 81 ,00U bills as a
margin on wheat deal.
William Wallace, Welcomes attor-
ney, opposed the motion yesterday on
criminal in character and the accused
had a right to be confronted with wit
nesses. The supreme court, in a per
curiam, holds to the contrary. The
contention Of the accused is that he
has constitutional right to face tho
witnesses testifying in the case" says
the court. But a criminal in disbar-
ment is not Il criminal prosecution

or prosecution Of a wrong. or the pun
ishment of public offense. as it is de-
tion, it is and must be classified as a
special proceeding for the reason that
every remedy sought or administered
under the code is classified as by ac-
ton or special proceeding. There is no
other place to put proceeding of this
nature inasmuch as all remedies not
embraced in the one case are necessar-
lily within the other. We, therefore.
think that the statutes controlling the
taking OF dispositions are applicable
and that the dispositions sought may be

A commission will accordingly be is

morrow counsel for Welcome are to

BOERS HELD AT BAY.
The Natal Men, Too Wary to BE Caught,
Retreated Firing.

London, Oct 19.-The Daily Tele-
graphs correspondent at Ladysmith
says that no newspaper correspondents
are allowed to proceed from there either
to Testers station or Actonhomes,
and adds that General Joubert's forces
are moving against Glencoe and Test
er's station on the Harrismith-Lynch
line
According to the same authority,
some volunteers who had just come
into Ladysmith from Testers station
and Actonhomes before the dispatch
was sent reported that 300 Beers tried
ircffectually to cut off small parties
of British troops, but the Natal men
We're too wary to be caught, and re-
tired firing The enemy, as usual, hid
themselves behind hills and rocks and
in gullies, but were unable to advance.
They used cannon against the British
riflemen, who. nevertheless. maintain
ed stout resistance. The firing was
very heavy. The country about Act
onhomes being more open, the British
mounted volunteers there retired upon
Dewdorp. Two thousand Beers were
engaged at Actonhomes and rather
fewer at Testers station. 1t is report
ed that the enemy is hemmed in and
suffering severely.
The Daily Telegraph, commenting
upon the foregoing dispatch, says 1T

to Glencoe and Testers station, ex-
cept on the theory that Commandant
General Joubert is dividing his forces.
