used by that company as a most ef-
fective weapon against the action Of
that state and praying the president
TO make a full Investigation before

Fitzgerald, a Very
Good, Clean Town


From the Atlanta Journal.
Macon, Ga, Jan. 17.-Judge
J. w. Haygood, of Fitzgerald,
was in Macon last night. He
says Macon's manly fight to put
down the gambling evil is being
watched with interest all over
the state. 1--WE have a clean
town down at Fitzgerald" he
continued. "The courts and the
grand jury are cooperating to
suppress gambling, and we have
suppressed it."
Judge Haygood says the new
Fitzgerald colony ia Charlton
county is already great success.
and a number of people have
gone there to open stores.
"Every man in our section
right now is planting a big
strawberry bed" he continued,

Guilty in reaching the conclusion
that he should vote against all OF
the articles of impeachment.
Mr.. Cochran, to clear up an
impression as to Mr.. McCall's
position, asked if he held that
Judge Swayne was censura BILE
for using property held under
his order of court, for his own
use, but that because such an Of
Tense was general he would not
pursue it.
Mr.. Mccall replied that he
took no such position.
Mr.. Williams, of Massachu-
sets, made the point that the fall
lacy of the argument of Mr.. Nc
Call was that he placed on the
same footing improbable offens-
es by executive officials and like
offenses by judicial officials.
A Judge he maintained, bore a
two-fold relation to i'm parchment

Judge Pardee Made Bad Break
in His Move to Intercede
for Judge Swayne.

Washington, January 19.-The
letter of Judge Pardee to Gener-
al Grosvenor again figured pro-
minently ia the debates in the
house today.
The action of Judge Pardee in
writing the letter was severely
scorned by Judge De Almond, of
Missouri, who said it was with
sorrow that he had witnessed
the exhibition made by the Par
dee letter. 1t was, he said, the
first time in the histoy of the
country that it had been furnish
ed with the spectacle of a Judge
attempting to influence by politi-
cal considerations the actions of
the house acting in its present
judicial capacity, as Judge Par
dee does in his letter, in which
he says: II do not think that
republican house should vote
impeachment against him."
The letter has been widely dis
cussed and a good many men
have suggested it as in itself war
rant for the impeachment of
Judge Pardee.
De Almond (MissourD declar-
ed that if Judge Swayne was not
impeached ut will be because of
the blindness of partisanship,
hate and ZEAL"
Judge De Almond said he had
always understood Judge Pardee
to be an upright judge, and he
regretted 10 see him in this way
rlace a stain upon himself which
could not be eradicated by an
hundred years of usefulness.
He likened this act to that of a
man who would write a similar
letter to juror in Judge Par
dee's court and pictured the
righteous indignation over any
such act, even on the part of the
most ignorant man who might
be presumed TO know no better.
Referring to the date of the
letter, which was written in
March last, Judge De Armand
said employing that if sarcasm
for which he is famous, tina: if il

were not for the date, it might
have been suspected that the let
ter was written by some of those
other Judges who according to
recent disclosures, have been
reported in the habit of charging
the maximum expense accounts;
but, of course, he would make 20
such insinuation against Judge
Pardee.
Arnold (Missouri) said there
had been an effort to dispose of
this case, not on it's merits, but
by drawing line down the CEN

continued, "we knew that he
Judge Pardee) was one of those
like Judge Swayne, who has been
setting aside the law regarding
his expense allowance for the pur-
pose of drawing from the treas
ury money which does not belong
to him, we could find a reason for
that letter where no reason now
can be found to exist, unless il
should be that of narrow parts
anship.
Mr.. De Almond expressed
surprise that inasmuch as these
charges had been made against
Judge Swayne there should be
objection to having him placed
on trial before the senate, tina
his guilt or innocence might be
ascertained.

First Impeachment Proceed
ings in House Of Repre-
sentatives in Years.

Washington, January 18-The
house of representatives today
adopted the twelve articles of
impeachment against Judge c.
is. Swayne, of the district court
of the north district of Florida,
which had been presented by its
special committee of investiga-
ton. The speaker was asked to
appoint seven managers to pre-
sent the case to the senate and
conduct the impeachment pro-
ceedings before that body.
This action was the culmina-
ton of a debate which has been
in progress for over week, and
which has developed partisan
feeling and personal vitipurrtion.
The first vote, that to table the
articles relating to the falsitlca-
ton of expenses, went against
Judge Swayne by the narrow
margin of FIVE votes. This was re-
garded as the test vote, as the
charge regarding expenses was
the only one concurred in
by the members of the commit
tee signing the minority report.
FIRST VOTE 100 TO 165.
The motion to table these ar
ticles was lost 100 10 165. Twen-
ty-four republicans voted with
the democrats against tabling,
and hreedemocrats voted withthe
republicans to table. On roll call
these three articles were adopt
ed. Articles four and five, re-
1atipg to the free use of private
car by Judge Swayne, we're
made the subject of a separate
vote and adopted. Like action
followed with regard to articles
six and seven, charging him with
non-residence in his district.
This was the last roll call, as ar
ticles eight, nine, ten and eleven,
relating to the Davis-Belden con-
tempt case, and article twelve,
relating to the O'Neal contempt
case, were declared apopted on
viva voce votes.
The last time the house voted
10 present articles of impeach-
ment was in 1876, when it voted
the impeachment of W. W. Belk-
nap, secretary of war under
President Grant.
The debate today was chiefly
nota bic for the closing arguments
| in the case. That for Judge
Swayne was made by Mr.. Gillett,
of California, and that for i'm
parchment by Mr.. Palmer, OF
Pennsylvania. Mr.. Gillett made
an earnest plea for the judge,
and Mr.. Palmer spoke strongly
for purity on the bench and for
| impeachment.
ATTEMPT TO ANSWER COCHRAN.
Argument in the Swayne case
was opened by Mr.. Mccall, OF
Massachusetts,. The picture OF a
judge presented yesterday by
Mr.. Cochran, of New York, he
said, though ideal, was as unat-
taina BILE as it was sublime. The
argument of Mr.. Palmer, OF
Pennsylvania, that we either
condemn, or we do not condemn
Judge Swayne for his actions, "
he did not believe valid. The
constitution gives the house the
