BESETTE CASE TESTIMONY.
An Interesting Point Brought Out by
Attorney Rocker.

The last testimony in the case of Edward
Besette. charged with violating a restrain
ing order issued against the strikers at
Hammond, was heard by Judge Baker in
the United States Court yesterday after
noon and the argument was begun. Attor-
ney Rocker representing Besette, was the
last to speak and he did not finish his ar
gument before adjournment of court. He
will conclude this morning and it is be-
lieved that Judge Baker will take the case
under advisement before rendering a dec-
sion.
During the examination of witnesses
Judge Baker gave the attorneys wide
scope in order that ne might get all the in
formation possible on the question of the
strike at Hammond. During the testimony
of President Colbert, of the Chicago Typo
graphical Union in the morning. ii was
shown that 10000 union men had voted
against w. j. Bryan for President because
his book, THE First Battle" had been
printed by nonunion workers in the Conkey
Besette $3.50 day to go to Hammond and
work in the interest of the union in the
Conkey strike. He was also allowed Sc or
81 a day expenses.
Attorney Rocker brought out an interest
ing question during his argument and read
many decisions to substantiate his conten-
ton. He pointed out that there were two
questions TO be cOnsidered-the remedial
and punitive damages. If remedial he
said, the court did not have jurisdiction.
as the defendant and the plaintiff Conkev
both resided in Illinois. If punitive he
said il was an action to be brought by the
government and not by private individual
The phase of the case brought out by At
tOrney Rocker seemed to elicit a great deal
of interest from the judge and the other
attorneys present. The decision of the
court is awaited with great interest

PLEASED WITH EEL RIVER
THE ROAD WILL BE VALUABLE TO
THE yANDALIA COMPANY.
Many RumOrs Denied by j. j. Hill
Present Relations Between the
wabash and Pennsylvania.

Harry Miller. general manager for the
Vandalia, E. A Ford, general passenger
agent of the PENNSYLVANIA. John Chesbor-
ough, assistant general passenger agent Of
the Vandala, and Superintendent Hatch,
of the Terre Haute & Logansport, have re-
turned from a trip over the Feel River
road, now Logansport a. Toledo, which was
recently acquired by the Pennsylvania Com
pany, and which will be made part of the
Vandalia system. These officials express
themselves surprised over the condition of
the property and its outlook for business.
So far as the condition of the road is con-
cerned, seventy-one miles east of Chilli is
laid with seventy-fve pound steel rails, and
the Wabash trains are scheduled sixty-five
miles per hour over the greater portion OF
the road. The twenty-five miles of the
older part OF the road, which was not used
by the Wabash, is in bad shape, and al
ready the work of rebuilding it, laying it
with heavy steel rails, reconstructing
bridges, etc. has commenced. Mr.. Ford
was surprised to find that SO many good
towns were located on the LoganspOrt &
Toledo, and he is more confident than ever
that it will be a valuable adjunct to the
Vandalia line. 1t passes through a thrifty
country, having many attractions and
when the Improvements are completed
trains will be put on to make good time be-
tween Detroit and st. Louis. The road Will
be equipped up to the Pennsylvania high
standard Business men ana citizens on
the line express themselves pleased that
the PENNSYLVANIA Company will control the
property and develop it, Mr. FORD re-
turned TO Pittsburg yesterday morning.

pany abandoning its Akron route in con-

Is quoted as saying the business handled
since the opening of the Pan-American FIX
position was surprisingly large. and for a
while il was question among passenger
men as 10 whether the lines were TO be
made permanent. The Pennsylvania Of
icials favored such movement, and, in
fact, made arrangements with the Erie for
the perfection of a permanent agreement
After an inspection of territory and the
the West and Southwest, Mr.. Ford thought
1T advisable TO discontinue the service He
believes that while the Pan-American
travel has more than fulfilled expectations,
the regular travel to Buffalo is not Suf-
ficient to justify the permanency of the
new route.
James J. Hill. president of the Great
Northern Railway, reached New York on
Wednesday. When asked about the United
States Railroad Company, which, accord
ing to a story from st. Paul. is the name
OF new corporation about TO be organized,
Mr.. Hill replied: There is nothing what
ever in all this talk about a combination
OF Northwestern railroads. Nothing of the
kind is contemplated; certainly the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific will not be
controlled by a single company. 1t would
not be practicable" AS TO the report that
he had sold out his Erie stock he said there
was absolutely nothing in that rumor. Il
own as much stock of the Erie line as
ever did, and have no idea of selling. said
he. Regarding the report that +. b. I'm
derwood, president of the Erie, was to go
TO the Great Northern, he said If Mr. I'm
derwood has any thought of leaving the
Erie he has no knowledge of it.
