CHICAGO July 3O.The questions Of the
Legality or illegality of "picketing' by

REPORT ON LITTAUER CASE.
COL. DARLINGTON PRESENTS A
STATEMENT or FACTS.
He Refrains From Passing on the Question
whether Littauer Was lnlawfully In
tcrested In Glove Contracts. LeaS"
Ing II for Secretary Root to Decide.


Ing 1t for Secretary Root to Decide.
WASHINGTON. July sO--The report Of
Col. E. A. Darlington on the Littauer in
vestigation was handed to Secretary Root
this morning by Adjutant- General Corbin.
The Secretary Of War was so occupied
with important matters connected with
the Philippines, however, that he was I'M
able to give the report any consideration.
He said this afternoon that until he has
time to review the paper he will not make
its contents public.
Col. Darlington does not positively say
that there is no evidence that Representa-
tive Littauer was unlawfully interested in
the contracts made by the Government
with Edmund r. Lyon for gloves and gaunt-
let's for the army. That is, he does not give
his own conclusions, but merely presents
a statement of facts showing what Repre-
sentative Littauer's connection with Lyon
was.
The report itself not including the ex-
hibits, makes about ten typewriter foolscap
pages. II includes a copy Of the section OF
the Revised Statutes prohibiting Members
of Congress from participating in Govern
ment contracts and then follows with
statement of the facts disclosed by the
inquiry. Col. Darlington refrains from
drawing any positive conclusions from
these facts, but 1t is learned that the presen-
tation of these facts is made in such way
as to show an absence Of any violation OF
the law on the part of Littauer.
One explanation of the report is that Col
Darlington purposely kept from passing
upon the law questions involved in the case
and contented himself with analyzing the
testimony which he secured from Repre-
sentative Littauer and the contractors,
leaving to the Secretary Of War the deter
mination of the question whether Littauer
had actually violated the law prohibiting
Members Of Congress from having any in
terest in Government contracts. An evi-
dence Of this is the fact that it has already
been determined TO refer the report to
Judge Advocate General Davis for his
review before final decision is reached.

Mr.. Smiths Reply to Mr.. Bryan.

Mr. Editor:-I almost feel that l
demean myself when | notice the
contemplate attack made upon me
by Mr.. W. W. Bryan. | am surprised
at a man in his position making what
he knows to be such misstatement
and trying to do me such an injus'
tice.
He claims this time Il wonder what
his next will be) that | refused to
send the papers of his school until l
had changed them to suit myself.
Each word counted 2 per cent. and as
the difference between my two marks
was only Il per cent l could not have
been very radical.
This attack upon my social stand
ing is rs ridiculous as it is false, and
as my family is known in many Sec
lions of the county l need make no
remarks upon it. If Mr.. Bryan can
prove that in his native city, Will
liamsburg, where l had the pleasure
of attending college for three years,
his social standing or his reputation
was one iota better than mine, l will
plead guilty to his charges and say
no more. Until he can prove that,
his statement must stand as vie
and malicious SANDER.
l had contemplated taking a much
more serious action as regards his at
tack upon me, but upon the advice
OF my friends and of some of the
most prominent men OF Onancock
where l happened to be when the
article appeared, have decided for
the present to let it go for its face
value. All whom / have heard ex
press an opinion think that such an
article must reflect more dishonor
upon the author than anyone else.
| think the gentleman has gained
notoriety enough and Hope the next
time he accuses me it will be in my
presence and thus give me an oppor-
unity to resent the insult in man
ner befitting a gentleman. He said
nothing about my unfairness when
conducted the contest but put all the
blame upon Mr.. Mock in the selec-
ton of the words. If he had said
anything about it then it would have
soon been settled. Conducting a
spelling match is the most thankless
job l ever undertook for not only
had / all the expenses to bear but
have since been abused by the very
one who asked me to conduct it.

The Senate of Virginia, in consid-
ering the case of Judge G. j. Camp
bell on Tuesday, seems to have ar
rived at the conclusion, that with
the honorable reputation of man at
stake haste was not necessary" and
referred the question of his removal
ito the Courts of Justice Committee
with instructions to report upon the
legal status of the question and their
conclusion upon the evidence taken
and printed in the cause" The time
for making the report was not de-
signated and the committee can, if
1t so wills, by unlimited discussion
and consideration of the evidence,
withhold their report until the close
of the session. In the event, however
of concurrence by the Senate in the
action of the House, the end would
not then have been reached in the
case, as Judge Campbell and his ad
herents have declared their intention
to test the result in the Supreme
Court of Appeals. In view OF these
facts and the delays incident to
same, there seems to be only one con
clusion in the matter that Judge
Campbell, despite the large majority
OF the House for his removal and the
approval by the people of the State
of their action, will continue to oc-
cupy the position which he has filled
with so much discredit to himself un-
til the end of his term.
