PATRICK HEARING ENDED.
Recorder Goff Reserved Decision as to
New Trial.

NEW YORK, May 23.-Today ended the
testimony and arguments in Albert T.
Patrick's hearing for a new trial. during
which his life has been twice reprieved
Recorder Golf reserved his decision, giving
until Friday for the filing of briefs. The
hearing closed with dramatic appeal by
Mr.. Jerome to the defense and the court
for the privilege of permitting Frederick b.
House, Patrick's lawyer during the latter's
trial on the charge of numbering William
Marsh Rice, to unseal his lips from his
professional pledge of secrecy and tell the
court what had been said in confidence to
him by Charles F. Jones, Rice's valet.
w. NJ K. Olcott Patricks S counsel
jumped to his feet, exclaimtng: Il object to
this miserable grandstand play of the dis
trict attorney" Recorder Goff denied
motion of Mr.. Jerome to recall Mr.. House,
and said that statements of counsel would
have absolutely effect on the mind or
the court, unless borne out by evidence.
A motion by Mr. Olcott to recall witness
for rebuttal testimony on the effects of en-
balming fluid was denied. Mr.. Jerome said
on this point: I'VE will never finish with
this case at that rate, and the defendant
will in all probability die in the death house
of old age"

WILLIAMS LOSES TEMPER.
Becomes Angry at the Adverse Ruling
of the Speaker

VI IAS SPSohOA.
When the House met at noon today an un-
usual scene occurred Immediately after the
approval of the journal. Mr Williams, the
minority leader, demanded the yeas and
nays on the motion of Mr.. Adams (Pa.) to
go into committee of the whole for the
further consideration of the diplomatic and
consular bill. This demand was refused,
the Speaker holding that one-fifth of the
members present had not risen to demand
the yeas and nays.
II demand that the other side be taken" ;"
called out Mr.. Williams, becoming censid-
erably agitated.
The Speaker up to this time had been
calm and unruffied. He refused to take the
negative on a rising vote, stating that but a
short time before it had been demonstrated
that quorum of the House was present.
19j in all.
Then Mr. Williams became angry. and
thundered out a protest against the ruling
of the Speaker, insisting that the demand
was within his parliamentary right, r1ght
recognized by the rules of the House.
Excitement followed the remark of Mr..
Williams. and the Speaker, nettled at the
manner OF the floor leader of the minority,
decisively replied that the rules were silent
on the point and that he was wholly within
the constitution when he refused TO take
the other side when an insufficient number
rose to demand the yeas and nays.
The Speaker pounded the desk while
Mr. Williams continued to speak, his words
being drowned by the noise of the gavel
and the excitement on the floor. Leaving
Mr.. Williams standing, the Speaker de-
scended from the desk and Mr.. Curtis
(Kan.) took his place as chairman of the
on the diplomatic and consular bill was re-
sumed.

INJUNCTION IS DENIED
RULING OVER UNION OF PRESBY.
TERRAIN CHURCHES.

r
DECATUR, H., May 2s.-The application
for an injunction to restrain the union of
the Presbyterian churches was denied to-
day by Judge Johns Judge Johns said that
the case has no parallel in the jurspru-
dence of the United States. He treated the
church as a voluntary organization, the
acts of whose highest tribunal are binding
on all members and will not be interfered
with by the courts If the acts are fair and
honest
He held that courts of equity will not
pass on doctrinal matters, the decisions of
ecclesiastical judciaries being binding on
civil courts as to matters of faith. The de-
cision sets forth the various acts of the
Cumberland General Assembly and says:
These actions of the assembly must be
held to a determination of It's right and
power" AS to doctrine, the court held that
whether the doctrines of the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church are widely variant
from these OF the Presbyterian Church is
an ecclesiastical question solely, upon
which, h3 wing been decided by &c
clesiastical judicatory, the civil court is
powerless to inquire
The decision adds: NO court has ever
enjoined an ecclesiastical body from con-
sidering what action it should take. This
application is without precedent

a statement like that on the floor OF this
House. That declaration means the recog-
milton of mendicancy as a profession. 1t
means the establishment of a national bu-
reau of beggary. The logical conclusion OF
such policy would be Il degradation OF
American manhood and womanhood com
pared to which no nation on this earth
gives us a parallel.
Mr.. Williams came near realizing his
ideal In 1884, when every community was
taxed directly to maintain public soup
houses, and were given an opportunity to
pay into their local treasures. instead OF
having paid into the custom houses. the
money that provided food and clothing.

Coxey and his army of thousands of un-
employed marched over the hills and
through the valleys to Washington to beg
Congress to do something for their relief
after the capacity of the local taxing Of
ficers had become exhausted. That was
the period when 4 4S7 married men took
advantage of an opportunity to earn so
cents saving wood in one day in New
York city. That was the period when
$4,000 unemployed working men marched
to the Boston state house and demanded
employment. That was the period when
Boston, and Chicago. and Pittsburg, and
every other large city in this republic
fed, by charity, thousands and tens of
thousands of hungry but idle. honest men
and women who were in want

FOREIGN QUESTIONS PENDING.
Secretary Root and Senate Committee
in Conference

Long-delayed and vexed questions be-
tween the United States and Great Britain
arising from boundary and fslDries DIS
putes and claims of all character, were the
subject of a conference today between the
Senate committee on foreign relations and
Secretary Root. The Secretary sought the
conference for the purpose of discussing
pending treaties and numerous other sub
jects which he thinks should be dealt with
by Congress at the present session.
It developed during the discussion that 1t
is very unlikely that the joint high COM
mission will ever be convened again for the
settlement of disputes concerning our rela-
tions with Canada, and Secretary Root
urged the necessity of providing some other
means to reach this end He suggested thar
he should proceed, through olpiomalic ne
gotiations, to have the various claims ad-
iusted and to this the foreign relations;
committee agreed.
IT is not the intention to negotiate trea-
ties, but if possible, secure an adjustment
of the claims held by Great Britain against
the United States and the claims of TINS
government against Great Britain, SO that
when appropriations are made by Congress
to pay the foreign debts of this nation as
surance may be had that our claims against
other countries will be settled.
Another subject discussed was the treaty
with Mexico relating to the waters of the
Rio Grande. The secretary urged tnat lHis
treaty be ratified.
The disposition of the indemnity fund
paid by China to this government was taken
up Secretary Root said that consnlates
were needed in China and Korea and sug-
gested that this money be used for the
purpose of constructing suitable houses in
the orient A number of other questions
were taken up briefly. including treaties re-
Iating to diversion of waters of the st.
Johns river, Spanish extradition and to
carry out the recommendations Of the In
ternatIonal sanitary conference.
