Washington, Feb. S.--Charges against
Delegate Wilcox of Hawaii were taken
up by house committee on elections No
l. MI Wilcox was present accompanied
by Representative Robinson of Indiana
VINO appeared as his friend and counsel
Mr.. Robinson stated at the outset that
as Mi. Wilcox was unfamiliar with the
procedure in election contests, he had
consented to appear in behalf of the
delegate.
The written answer of Mr.. Wilcox was
submitted. He claims that many of the
charges preferred against him are with
out merit. In regard to the letters he
IS accused of having written, dated re-
spectively January 81, 1899. and March
s. 1899. he suggests that the conditions
prevailing at that time and the legal
status of the Hawaiian Islands with re-
spect to the United States We're entirely
different from those existing later and
at the time of his selection He claims
to be now sincerely and thoroughly
American. believing in and heartily sup
porting the constitutions
Mr.. Robinson added that the delegate
had received no notice of contest as pro-
Nlded by the rules. He asked under the
circumstances that ten days be alloW4;l
for preparation on the merits if the COM
mittee proposed to conduct a formal con-
test.
George ID. Gear who makes the charse
was asked to produce one of the orisi-
nails of the letters, and until these could
be secured. the committee goes into eX-
ecutiNe session to determine its course

Helena. Feb. S.--The appeal of the
Montana Central Railway company from
the verdict of the district court in Sill
Yer Bow county, in the damage suit cf
Timothy Nolan, was argued before the
supreme court this morning and sub
mitted. Nolan was a laborer on the
gravel train at Woodvile and was
struck on the head November Is, 1896. by
the cable used in drawing the unloading
ploW along the fiat cars. as he stood be-
side the track ready for work. \ peg
was used to keep the cable in position, as
the train was standing on curve, but
the cable slipped over it. Nolan claimed
that it was insufficient to hold the ca
bic and that 4 block ana tackle should
have been used He therefore claimed
that the accident was due to the com
pany's negligence. The jury awarded
him $4,000 damgaes. The railroad COM
pany in its argument claimed that the
district court erred in denying a motion
for a non suit, in denying motion to in
struct the jury for defendant and in de-
nying Il motion for new trial. 1t
claimed that the peg is the means ordin
arily used to keep such a cable in place,
and that the evidence was insufficient to
SHOW negligence on 1lS part. DUt tnlt tne
accident was due to the negligence of it's
felo" servants in failing to make proper
use of the appliances furnished. Nolan
claimed that the evidence showed it was
usual to use the block and tackle in
working a plow on curves. and that or
dinary care was taken With the appli-
;i!lceS furnished; that it was simply Il
question whether those appliances Were
sufficient and that the facts showed they
We're not.
In the suit of Wetzstein VS.. the Boston
& Montana company in regard to the
Comanche mine at Butte. application
was made by WetZstein to have the bond
furnished by the defendant increased.
He had supposed that Il bond for $780,
900 had been given, but investigation of
the records showed this not the case.
The court agreed to give the matter a
hearing.
The written consent of a ma iorty of
the members of the Miners Union to ccn-
tinue it's corporate existence was file
with the secretary of state. 1t was
