The Pacific cable question was again
argued before the House Committee on

Mr. Thomas F. Clark. vice president OF

a Government cable on the ground that
a cable laid by the Commercial Gable
Company would deprive the western
Union OF all land business resulting from
the cable. while a Government cable
would divide it between the Western
Union and Postal.

MR. PUGH DEFENDS

REVIEW OF THE LIQUOR CASES.
Declares Charges of Mr. Shoemaker,
Aufi-SaiOon League Attorney,
Regarding Their Disposition

Mr.. James L. Pugh, jr., Assistant City
Solicitor, today forwarded to Mr.. A. B.
DuyaII, City Solicitor, a reply to the re-
cent statement Of Mr. A T. Shoemaker,
attorney for the Anti-saloon League, TO
the District Commissioners, in which he
expressed dissatisfaction with the Police
Courts in the trial OF alleged yio!G-ors Of
the liquor laws.
In regard TO the number Of cases tried
and the disposition Of them since 1888
MI Pugh declares Mr.. Shoemaker 70 be
misinfOrmed.
Record of the Dockcts.
Mr.. Pugh's letter in part IS as follows:
The dockets Of the court show that
for this period, since 1893, have filed a
total number Of 9G4 informations, and out
Of this number a verdict Of guilty was
rendered IN 100: 259 acquittals. 80 con-
tihued cases for this length Of time and
207 lnformations mol pressed Out OF the
number Of convictions the court imposed
fines in 3S6 cases and took she personal
bonds Of 20. From this showing made by
the dockets cf the Police Court Mr.. Shoe
maker certainly could not have given
them very much Of an examination.
Now. in respect 20 the statement that
cases have been postponed until wit
nesses could not be secured. must say
that for the time 1 have had charge Of
the court. nearly ten years, never
knew this 10 be true. and ] defy Mr.
Shoemaker or anyone else 10 name the
ease when this has occurred II is FimDIy
not so.
Delays In Trials.
Under the system prevailing in the
court IT is impossible 20 afford a trial
on the day the defendant is arraigned
and demands trial by a jury. The Jury
trials obtain 10 the United States side OF
the court, regularly. and trials are as
speedy IN this branch of the judiciary
Of the District as in any other. In fact,
the business Of the court In this class
OF cases as well as In all other classes
is up 70 date; and but few cases are
awaiting trial.

urge the rejection Of the French PROPOSE
tion.
The question whether the United States
can secure a full. clear and perfect title
to the property Of the French Canal Com
pany, is the most important one
which the Commission has 10 consider,
it having already demonstrated that it
is a feasible route for the canal.
The senate ComEIittee Meets
The Senate Interoceanic Canal Commit
tee was called together today by Senator
Morgan and was in session nearly two
hours. The various phases Of isthmian
canal legislation were earnestly discussed
but no definite conclusions were reached.
The most important action taken was
the appointment Of a subcommittee con-
slsting Of Senator's Harris. Foster OF
Louisiana and Kittredge to hear the argu-
ments the advocates Of the Mendano Ca
nal Company desire to present in favor
Of their project. The chief representa-
tive Of this route, generally known as the
Darien Route, is General, sorrel. who
gained fame as the engineer who built the
HoCsac Tunnel
General sorreTs route contemplates
tunneling through a granite mountain a
distance Of five ana a h.If miles, to be
20 feet wide and $50 feet high

The Mendano Canal Company claims its
route TO be the shortest and even with
the stupendous tunnel to be dug that il
} can be built cheaper and more quickly
than either the Nicaraguan or Panama

| advantage OF being a sea level canal.

o'clock this afternoon TO hear General
