swayne Impeachment Case Closed
For the Defense

WASHINGTON,,Feb. 24-The senate
had difficulty in securing quorum at
its first night sitting of the session.
called for the purpose of proceeding
with the Swayne impeachment case.
The session was called for 3 o'clock
gin business until fifty-fye minutes
later. when forty-six senators having
responded to the roll call a vote was
taken on the admission of the tabuat-
ed statement showing the payments
paid to federal judges on account of
expenses. The vote was adverse To
the proposition, being 10 to SO.
After offering a few other documents
Mr. Higgins announced the close of the
case for the defense. Only two wit
nesses were called in rebuttal They
were L. 7. Davis and George W. Pryor,
Doth OF Pensacola. Their testimony
related to the Davis Belden contempt
cases and in both instances was brief,
A few papers were presented as evil
dence by the prosecution, and when
the last of these had been received. at
900 p. m. Mr. Palmer announced the
termination of the presentation Of testi-
mony.
"That's our case" said Mr.. Palmer,
and he had scarcely taken his seat
when Mr.. Thurston addressed the chair.
He made proposition to submit the
case without argument "if agreeable
to the learned managers of the house"
Mr.. Palmer's response was promptly
made in the negative, because, he said,
some of the testimony needed explica-
ton to be understood. Hence" he
said, at Is not agreeable"
proceed with the argument" COM
manded Mr.. Plat Conn from the
chair.
Mr.. Olmstead accordingly took the
floor for the prosecution. To him had
been assigned the duty Of opening the
discussion. He dwelt upon the scope
of the jurisdiction Of congress in i'm
parchment proceedings and outlined the
acts that may he punished by impeach-
ment. He contended that acts for
which an official may be impeached are
not necessarily official in character He
charged Judge Swayne with crimes
outside his office and also said that
that official had been guilty Of notable
misdemeanor and high crimes and mis-
demeanor relating to his office and urg.
cd his conviction on both states Of fact.
Mr.. O'mstead concluded at 1918
