TEN WITNESSES HEARD.
Work of impeachment Court in Judge
: .--....,. 40 Swayne's Case ~--@..r-

The last hours of the session of the Senate
yesterday afternoon were devoted to the
5Swayne case and the agricultural bill. The
Senate heard ten witnesses in the Swayne
impeachment trial. The major portion of
the debate in connection with the appro-
priation bill was based on. an amendment
suggested by Mr.. Bacon providing for semi
monthly reports on the condition of the
cotton crop, which was amended so as to
cover the last five months of the year and
adopted.
The session as a court continued for
somewhat less than two hours, and during
that time ten witnesses were examined.
The statements OF. all of them bore upon
the residence of Judge Swayne, and. the
prosecution closed on that point. The wit
nesses heard on that subject were: George
z. Wentworth, clerk in the office OF the
district attorney in Pensacola; A. c. Biount
jr Charles VI. CoSten and John S. Beard,
attorneys at Pensacola; William W.-Potter
formerly clerk of the district court at PEN
sacola; Joseph c. keyser of Pensacola, and
Mrs. Hattie S. Northup. who keeps
boarding house at Pensacola, at which
Judge Swayne stopped some of the time
while there. All of these witnesses testi-
fed that it had been Judge Swaynes habit
to remain in Pensacola only while court
was in session, about month each year,
and that generally he gave directions to
have documents sent to him at Guyen-
court. Del.
NH. OflHSteu Sdiu "ilcti 'iiS7S
were excused that they might be discharged
if the respondent did not intend to raise
the question as to Judge Swayne's char
acter but in that event it was desired TO
have them remain in the city. NO response
was made and the witnesses were oroefed
to remain.
The other three witnesses of the day were
Eliza r. Davis, Pensacola lawyer; X. w.
Sublett ticket agent of the Louisville ana
Nashville railroad at Pensacola, and j. o.
Jennings, a conductor on that road. They
were introduced to testify on the charge
that Swayne had certified to greater ex-
penses on the occasions of his trips 10
Jennings testified that the judge carried an
annual pass on the railroad. In connection
with Jennings testimony Mr.. Olmsted ex-
planned that he did not mean TO raise the
Question of Judge Swayne's right to ride
on a PASS but he considered 1t important
when the government was asked to pay for
the TRANSPORTATION.

Titles of Naval Staff Officers.
!, the Engineering News

From the Engineering News
Civil Engineer Peter c. Asserson, U. 5.
N was retired from active service with the
rank of rear admiral and the corresponding
nav. but when he used the title OF Rear
Admirar' on his visiting card line officer
Of similar grade protested to the Navy De-
nartment that Mr.. AssersOn. being staff
pfficer was unauthorized to use title that
"helonged only to officers of the navy en-
nowered to actually command ships and
so,adrons" The Secretary of the Navy, by
directing Mr. Asserson not to use the title
of rear admiral, either in official or personal
correspondence, practically supports the
contention of the line officer.
1t is said that an effort is to be made In
the next Congress to correct this anomaly
by authorizing the staff officer to assume
the corresponding line title. Could not the
problem be solved by some appropriate affix
to the more familiar and more generally
honored title-as engineer rear admiral.
surgeon rear admiral, pay rear admiral?
There is already precedent for such action
in the case of the army, where We now
have surgeon general, paymaster general
and auartermaster general. Some such law
authorizing the use on all occasions Of a
distinctive and sufficiently honorable title
would remove much friction.

Dutch Language in South Africa.

From South A1rIcd.
The Dutch language does not seem at a
very high premium in the opinion Of the
heads of families In South Africa. A petit
ton was recently presented to the board of
management of the Kimberly high schools
in favor of the teaching of Dutch to the
scholars attending those schools. In order
TO ascertain the views of those most con-
cerned the board sent out a circular to IA
parenSs requesting those who were DESTROYS
Of Dutch being taught during school hours
to the board stating their wish. Only 20.
however, were anxious that Dutch should
be SO treated, and these 20 parents repre-
scented only SO children out OF total of
175 attending the high schools.

Unusual Number of Cases.

The Associated Charities report an I'M
usual number of cases today as a result of
the intense cold. Secretary Weller said
this afternoon that the daily number of
calls made by agents of the Associated
Charities is between eighty and one hun
dred. and in every case either food, cloth
ing, fuel or all are given. So many are the
requests for aid that 1t has been necessary
to confine the giving of help of this kind to
those who are ill. When destitute families
are found with one or more able-bodied
persons among the members. strong efforts
are made to get regular or temporary en-
ployment for these, and in most cases the
efforts are successful.
This is one of the hardest winters we
have ever had" continued the secretary.
There is now an unusual amount of sick
ness. especially pneumonia and grip"
The Associated Charities are doing good
work, and by their efforts much cold
weather suffering Is alleviated.
