1 Washington. Jan 19.-The letter Of
Judge Pardee to General Grosvenor
again figured prominently in the debat
IN the house To-Day
General has been mucn
"iticised by republicans for bav.
mg made public the letter OF Judge Par
Gee on the ground that this action was
most unjust to Judge Pardee. Geuer.
a. Grosyenor claims that under the au.
tAority given him by Judge pardee
90 use his own discretion in the matref
he has fully the right to read the letter
The action Of Judge Pardee in WRIT
ing The letter was severely scored bv
Judge De Armond. Of Missouri who
.said it was with sorrow and shame
tlat he had Witnessed the exhibition
made By te Pardee letter. It was he
said the first time in the history of
tbe country that it had been furnished
"ith O. spectacle of judge attemnt.
.ug tTiTnuence by political considera.
tons the action OF the house acting in
rs present judicial capacity. as Judge
Pardee does in his letter. in which he
says 4 do not think that republican
house should vote impeachment
against him"
Judge De Arnond said he had al
ways understood Judge Pardee to be
en up right Judge and he regretted to
see him in this way place stain upon
himself. which could not be eradiater
~ an hundred years of usefulness. He
likened this at to that OF a man VINO
could write Z similar letter to a Juror
IL Judge Parlee's court and pictured
the righteous indignation over any
such act, even on the part of the most
Gnorant man who might be presumed
% known no better.
Referring to the date OF the letter.
which was written in March last.
Judge De Armcnd said. employing that
sarcasm for which he is famous that
# It were not for the date It might
have been suspected that the letter
was written by some of those other
judges who according to recent disclo.
sures have been reported in the habit
OF charging the miximum expense nc.
counts; but OF course he would make
40 such nsinuation against Judge Par.
dee
The letter has been widely discussed
and good many men have suggested
il as in itself warrant for the impeach.
ment Of Judge Pardee. OF course. SO
iar this is only talk and it is doubtful
# anything more will be heard from IL
~ that line. a good many men seem
70 think there Is reasonable grounds
for doubting the friendship OF General
Grosyenor for Judge Pardee. In view
Of his action IN making public this let.

could find a reason for that letter
