CHAS. SWAYNE'S CHARGE
TO JURYIN PEONAGE CASE
He Cites Law and Directs
How Evidence Shall
Be Considered.
INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN THE JURY
COVERED EVERY PORTION OF
THE TESTIMONY THAT WAS TO
BE CONSIDERED IN DIsPosING
OF CELEBRATED CASE.

Gentlemen of the Jury:
The defendants, w. S. Harlan, S. e.
Higgins and G. G. Hilton are indicted
and on trial before you for a violation
of the statues of the United States
with reference TO peonage, which is
as follows:
They are indicted for conspiracy
to arrest one Rudolf Lanninger with
the intent that he should be returned
to condition of peonage; that is to
say, to compulsory service of the
Jackson Lumber Company, a corpora
ton, to work an Indebtedness alleged
to be due by him to the company,
and that, in furtherance of the said
conspiracy, and for the purpose of
affecting the same, the said c. C. Hill
ton did by threats and force, within
the northern district of Florida, and
within the juridiction of this court,
arrest the said Rudolf Lanninger, and
restrain him of his liberty, against
his will and consent; and further,
that for the purpose of effecting the
objects of the said conspiracy the said
s. E. Higgins did compel the said
Rudolf Lanninger to accompany him,
the said S. E. Higgins, to the place
of business of the said Jackson Lum-
Der Company, corporation, contrary
to the form of the statue in such case
made and provided, and against the
peace and dignity of the United
States.
And in the second count: These
same defendants are charged with on
or about the oath day of July of this
year, in the county of Walton, state
of Florida. that they did conspire to-
gether to arrest one Rudolf Lanninger
with the intent that he should be held
in condition of peonage, that is to
say in the compulsory service of the
/ Jackson Lumber Company, and that
afterwards, the said c. c. Higgins did
by threats and force, within the dis
! trict aforesaid, in the county of Wal
ton, and state of Florida, and within
the jurisdiction of this court, arrest
the said Rudolf Lanninger, and re-
strain him of his liberty, against his
will r-
These defendants are all presumed
to be innocent until proven guilty be-

eminent in prosecuting the case must
prove every material allegation in the
indictment
A conspiracy is a combination and
agreement or understanding between
( two or more persons to commit an IL

against the defendants is that they

intent that he should be returned to a
, condition of peonage; aud, second

such design was arrived at by a tacit
understanding which was followed by
some act done by one or all of the
parties charged in the indictment in
furtherance of that agreemnt; the
joint assent of all may be proved by
direct testimony or may be inferred
from facts which will satisfy the jury.
You could not consider evidence of
acts and facts not directly connected
With the conspiracy charged in the in
dlctment as raising any presumption
that because other wholly disconnect-
ed things were done by the defend.
ants therefore the defendants were
capable of and for that reason actual.

ment. But on the other hand if YOU
believe from evidence not directly
concerning the conspiracy to arrest
Lanninger that general system of
business existed at the time OF his ar
rest at and about the Lockhart camps.
with the knowledge and co-operation
OF these defendants, or any two of
them, involving an understanding be.
tween them, or any such two of them
that such and such things were to be
done as occasion might arise, as part
OF such system of business and that
such system included the intimidatinr
and chasing and returning of foreign
and other employees in order to make
them work out their Indebtedness to
the Jackson Lumber Company, and
you believe that Lanninger was arrest
ed with intent to return him to worn
out such Indebtedness to said Com
pany, then you have a right to con
clude that there was an understand
ing between such two or more de-
PENDANTS to arrest Lanninger as charg.
ed in the indictment: in other words
proof of a general existing under
standing On July 23rd, 1906 that any
indebted foreign workmen of the COM
pany, that is, workmen recently re-
Gently arriving from New York. who
should run away should be pursued
and arrested in order to be returned
to work out the Indebtedness. would
be proof of the alleged conspiracy to
arrest Lanninger for the same purpose.
Although you believe that one of the
alleged conspiratOrs may never hay
known the existence of Lanninger. at
the time of his arrest, yet if he par
ticlpated in such a general under
standing as stated, he would be guilty
of the conspiracy to arrest Lanninger.
Much evidence has been offered by
the government and admitted, tending
to show the condition of the Jackson
Lumber Company's camps near Lock.
