GLASS TRADE STAGNANT.
Half the Windo1o Pane Manufactur-
ers to Close This Week.

Owing largely the fact that there is little ami
nation in the window glass trade. manufacturers
have decided to close their plants Fires
being withdrawn, and 1t is estimated that by the
end OF this week, 10 per mt of the window glass
factories in the United States will operation.
While there are conflicting statements regarding
the available supply Of window glass, the holders
wishing II to appear that the supply is not large
in order that prices may be maintained. and the
buyers desiring the impression to prevail that the
supply IS exceptionally large, there is no dispute
about the fact that there is scarcely any demand
for window glass. and that the factortes are
closing
n. Cowen a member Of the executive committee
OF the National window Glass Jobbers' Association.
says that there is absolutely way to obtain in
formation on which base definite estimate re-
garding the number OF plants that are TO be closed
Tho factories closing" continued Mr.. Cowen, ARE
dorg so because of the facts. that tho weather is
warm the men show a dsinclination to work, and
there is practically demand for glass. The pro-
duction thus far this year has been light, and had
the demand been equal TO the average, II would
have been insufficient. Where the employees own an
interest in the plants, they will probably continue
in operation"
Assistant Secretary Waller. of the National Win
Glass Jobbers' Association, attributes the alb
demand for glass the labor troubles last
year. which greatly disturbed building operations
in all of the large cities The price OF glass Is now
exceptionally low compared with former years,
and authorities assert that II is below the
cost OF production.

THE LEWISOHN CASE ARGUED.
Mr. Lauterbach Maintains that New Law
Violates Constitution.

The case of the People rel Jesse Lewisohn
against the Court of General Sessions came up for
argument before the Appellate Division OF the
Supreme Court yesterday. Alfred Lauterbach ap-
peared for Lewisohn, the relator and Assistant
District Attorney Cans for the respondents.
On May is Lewisohn refused TO answer ques-
ton put TO him when ne was before the grand
jury. and May 81 Judge Mcmahon. Of the Court
OF General Sessions. committed him to the Ludlow
Street Jail for contempt Of court.
The question put to Lewiston was whether he
had played roulette at the alleged gambling house
Of Richard A Garfield at No. 3 East Forty fourth
ST. The time covered by the inquiry was between
January l. 1901. and December !, 1862
Mr.. Lauterbach said that while the new gam
bling law pUTported TO relieve witnesses from I'm
prisonlnent or prosecution, it did not purport
10 protect them from the disgrace that would fol-
iow. lie continued
II the constitution provided merely that the wit
ness should not suffer Imprisonment or forfeiture
or prosecution. perhaps this law might not be
constitutional. But the provision Of the constitu-
ton Is broader-it s that shall be
PEELED TO testify against himself in criminal pro-
ceeolng. This statute does not puTpoTt
heve the witness Of the degradation and odium
which might follow from the giving of such testi-
nony
Mr.. Cans declared that tie immunity which has
long been granted TO persons who States evil
denoe rests on a principle similar TO that under
lying the statute in question.
