When the restraining order was issued a
tariff was published covering this agree
ment. 1t is alleged against the Santa Fe
that it violated this published tariff and on
this point the answer says:
In preparing said joint tariff said traffic
manager inadvertently, but without any de-
sire 10 evade such order, included in said
joint rate prescribed in said tarin the price
or cost of the coal carried, but this defend
ant at all mines and at all times received
upon the coal so carried under such Joint
tariff only it's proportion OF agreed division
of the entire or through charge of carriage
The answer contends that the practice Of
collecting from the smelters the price OF
the coal and the freight charge was to
facilitate business and not to afford a
vehicle for rebates.
The answer names the Caledonian Coal
company, whose coal, the answer says, the
smelters would not use as the instigator of

suited in the suit against the Santa Fe.

Senator ThuTStOn. on the other hand
have pleaded the hOnora BILE career Of

tomorrow he is to pass his seventeen
birthday, have entered objections to the
introduction of testimony and made a
desperate and spectacular attempt to
block the introduction of Judge Tan
neT's evidence
Objected to Tanner.
There was one time today when the
interest in the proceedings brought
such silence that the big clock could be
heard counting the seconds IT was
when the defense made its effort to pre-
vent the prosecution from placing Judge
Tanner upon the stand The defense
had finished Cross-eXamining Mr.

Tanner to the stand. and as he was
about to take his place Senator Thurs
ton addressed the court in objection TO
the testimony He called attention to
the journal in which was entered the
statement and plea of guilty entered by
Judge Tanner to an Indictment for
perjury Going further. the speaker
read from the revised statutes of the
United States in which it is provided
that no person guilty of perjury can be
used as a witness in the federal court
He cOntended that under the section the
record of an indictment for perjury and
of a plea Of guilty under such iDdict-

Heney's Argument Sustained.
Mr.. Heney argued that a plea OF
guilty without sentence. was subject at
any time to a reversal; that the defend

upon trial when he wished until SEN

evidence of Judge Tanner was under
the law admissible

included Mr. Morton Their position
was that the testimony adduced before
the interstate commerce commission
established a violation Of the court
order of March %. 1902. restraining the
company from executing any agree
ment to transport interstate traffic at
rates lower than the published tariff
of the road. This testimony. they con-
tended constituted a prima facie case
against the officers of the road and the
only way to ascertain their guilt or in
nOcence was through contempt pro-
ceedings.
Opposed by Roosevelt.
Attorney General Moody opposed the
bringing of contempt proceedings on
the ground that while the evidence be
fore the commission might show
violation of the injunction by the road.
it contained nothing charging any Of

same view. Both the president and the
attorney general agreed that contempt
proceedings should be instituted i'm
