taken before Judge Baker OF the United
States Circuit Court.
When the prisoner was brough, before
the Commissioner the prosecution moved
to dismiss the warrant under which he had
been arrested here two weeks ago. The
mot ion was not contested and as soon as
the warrant was dismissed another warrant,
sworn out in New York was served on the
accused.
The defence was prepared for the new
phase OF the case and before entering the
courtroom had petition ready for a
writ OF habeas corpus and had asked Judge
Baker to be at the Federal Building. While
the New York warrant was being read to
Lynchehaun one of his attorneys was in

prosecution has unwittingly played into
their hands by taking the case. from the
United States Commissioner. for appeal
from him could have gone only TO

was again on the witness stand to-day in
the trial OF the MacGinniss injunction and
receivership suit against the Boston and
Montana Company
He said that in his opinion the drop in
copper in 1901 was due to the attempt of
the Amalgamated company, through the
United Metals Selling Company, to force
certain parties into line by giving it out
that the market would be forced down
gradually from week to week.
He hesitated to divulge who told him If
the plot to make a drive in the copper
market He finally gave the name of ,)e. sc
Lewisohn, but said that the information
did not come from the latter directly.
II was stated, however, that the informa-
ton was received direct from Sam Rosen
stamm, who was the chief salesman of
the United Metals Selling Company.
The taking Of testimony was concluded
and the case will be submitted in briefs
and arguments in ten DAYS.
There is much apprehension here that
the immense property Of the Boston anc
