SUSTAINS CONTENTION.
Lawyer Refused to Testify In Case Of
Mrs. Maybrick's Mother.

Washington, June 6.--Justice Barnard of
the supreme court of the District of
Columbia today sustained the contention
OF w. Mosby Williams, a lawyer, who
claimed to answer certain questions pro-
pounded to him as witness in the case
of the Baroness Won Roques, mother of
Mrs. Florence Maybrick, against ID. w.
Armstrong, for the recovery of certain
real estate in Virginia and elsewhere
The proceedings before Notary Gait, the
commissioner empowered to hear testi-
mony to be used in the chancery court
Of Richmond. Va, will be resumed TO-
morrow. Mr.. Williams was questioned
concerning certain papers alleged to have
bearing on the case which he had obtain
ed as a course for John II. Walters and
concerning which he declined to be ex-
amined on the ground that whatever
papers were in his possession came in
the course of business with a client who
subsequently might be involved in the
case.

LIGHTING COMP ANIES
SHOULD BE REASONABLE

Denver. Col, June 6.-President Ernest
H. Davis of the National Electric Light
association, in his address at the opening
of the annual convention in this city to-
day. urged managers of the lighting COM
panies to be reasonable in their charges
and faithful in observing the terms in
their franchises. He said in part:
1.-The one great and constant menace
to the industry is unwise, burdensome
and restrictive legislation by the munich
pality and the state. The right to tax
is the power to destroy. The power to
regulate contains the germ of the danger
of confiscation in whole or in part The
regulation of the industry by a commits
sion with the powers such as are invest
ed in the gas and electric commission of
the state of Massachusetts may be proper
and satisfactory as safeguarding both the
rights of the public and of the investor.
But regulation by a commission brought
into being by manufactured public sem
timent. and having its inception in poll
tics, cannot be fair either to the public
or to the investor"
President Davis announced that the to-
tai membership of the association is S24.
as compared with $50 one year ago. Pa
pers on technical subjects were read at
the sessions today

One phase of Baseball.

Baseball games, as well as all other
exciting outdoor sports, have an ex-
ceedngly democratizing influence on So
ciety," said a discriminating critic last
night.
"These games have" he said. "a
distinct tendency to break down, for the
moment at least, the ordinary social con-
ventons-the barriers that too often Sc
parate the so-called classes and the
masses
when Miss We're de We're sits beside
or near Miss Katie O'Grady. and the two
smile or sigh as the game goes on, each
realizes the human quality of the other
and both feel that they are merely wo-
men after all So is it in the case of
men. Mr. Plutocrat will get caught
huggng DIR. Hobo for very delight, or
swearing at the umpire for very indigna-
ton
Intense joy or intense sorrow is a
great leveller. Tidings of a victory won
in war time will set two strangers to
hand clasping. whil4 great tragedy like
the Galveston storm or the Jacksonville
fire waken into life the one touch of
nature that makes the whole world kin,
l always feel more human after watching
a ball game" concluded the critic, land
especially so if the home team wins"

1 have over individuals who prevent
state from affording a prisoner due
process of law. No fault is imputed
to the state or the states laws. Inc
trouble relates to the action of the IN
dividuals in the mob that hung Hor-
ace Naples, a murderer. The Boston
Herald continues to give the Higgins
case considerable attention, and TINS
is the way it puts the issue in the
case as it goes before the court OF
last resort
1T Is not asserted that The state laws
regarding the trial Of negroes Tor COM
mon e-imes are insufficient, or are I'M
equal In their application, or that the
state officers were unwilling to do their
duty; but that, as a matter of fact, in
this instance the due process of law
was prevented by the violent conduct
of individuals, and that these individ-
uals who nullifed the states power and
intent are liable to punishment for
their interference with the due process
of state law through proceedings begun
in the national courts. In other words,
If a citizen of the United States under
the constitution and laws thereof has
the right to have his state affprd him
due process when 1t takes him into Gus
tody to punish him for crime, then
private individuals who forcibly pre-
vent the state from performing that
cuty, in order to punish him themselves
end prevent his enjoyment of a right
to judicial trial, interfere with his en-
joyment of a right privilege and i'm
n.unity secured to him by the United
States constitution and may be punished
by federal laws"
Higgins sued out a writ of habeas
corpus, claiming that his offense, II
any is punishable in the state courts
alone, and the federal authorities say
it is punishable in the federal courts.
The supreme court must in the Rig
gins case more fully define the four
teenth amendment The definition can
not be longer delayed or evaded. The
case will assuredly become one of his.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Gen. Tasker II. Bliss of the general staff

There are no reliable figures obtainabe
as to the deaths from disease, but it is

Hidden and hushed we watch them throw

Therefore-to break the rest We seek

Look to your van a league away
What midnight terror stays

Her cracking tops ablaze?

One of the best stories told by about Ar

the train had crept from station to sta

Ward beckoned to the conductor as he
passed through the car.

Ward, and l don't see what's to prevent
one of them cows out there from coming
into the car and biting the passengers.
