The chief feature of yesterdays pro-
ceedings were the arguments Of Attorney
Forest W Brown. of Charlest0wn. W
Va, on behalf OF the plaintiffs, and the
argument in reply by ex-senator Faux
ner. Of West Virginia.
Senator EIkins' attorneys placed c. w.
Cunningham. of Baltimore, who was iele-
graph operator at the block west of the
Union station in Baltimore on December
Is. 1901, on the stand. He testified that
the Congressional Limited reached his
block that day az AS p. m, and the
Y O'Clock train of the same day arrived
at his block at 12.06.@ Thomas J.. Dugan,
Of Baltimore. operator at the station. and
who recorded the movement of the two
trains through the tunnel and the Unioa
station, testified that the Congressional
Limited passed out Of Union station at ;
O'Clock. and the j. o'clock train al I2.Og
A train dispatcher's record from the
Pennsylvania Railroad office in Whining
ton was placed in evidence. It showed
that the recorded time of the limited in
the station was 1 minute, and the other
trains minutes.
This testimony was taken in connection
with the testimony of Burton and Du-
brueil who stated that they had had an
interview with Elkins in the Union station
while he was a passenger on the Congress
sional Limited Senator Elkins testified
that the only trip he took 20 New York in
the middle Of December was the one on
December Is, 1901. and he positively denied
seeing or talking TO either of the plaintiffs

tilted that Senator Eikins told them TO

Many Prayers Submitted.

Attorney Worthington moved to instruct
the jury 10 return a verdict for the de-
PENDANT. Justice Wright overruIed this
motion. The attorneys for the plaintiffs
then submitted five prayers. TO be used in
instructing the jury Justice Wright re-
fused TO grant any. The defendants sub
mitted TO the court nineteen prayers. JUS
tice Wright refusing five and granting
fourteen The effect of this action on the
part OF the court Will be 10 confne the
Jury in fixing compensation for the plain
tiffs, if any. for services which they per
formed after the plan which they allege
was abandoned by Senator Elkins and
themselves at the Union Station inter-
view
Attorney Brown for the plaintiffs
argued that compensation was due his
clients, not on specific contract but on a
contract which was implied by the definite
acts of both the plaintiffs and the de
PENDANT. He conceded that a change had
been made in the original plan. but
claimed it was agreed to by all parties
He said the plaintiffs were endeavoring
to secure payment for services performed
fer Senator Elkins after the Union Sta
ton conference.
Former Senator Faulkner. of counsel for
Senator Elkins. replied that but three in
terviews between the parties took place
He said the other interviews ARE the

plaintiffs themselves resting upon no
foundation whatever"

whole Plan Criminal.

He said that according to Burton's own
testimony the bankers. whom he alleged
would handle the loan. had not consented
to do so by December ID. when the al
legged Union Station interview took place.
This interview, Mr. Faulkner argued.
never took place. He said the whole plan
of the plaintiffs was a criminal and an
illegal one from its inception, and he said
he absolutely repudiated. and the testi-
mony did, that there had ever existed at
any time a contract between the plant
ifs and the defendant He said that
Senator Elllins. in his usually indulgent
and kindly way. had endeavored to Sc
cure a position for Mr. Burton, and that
these efforts on the part of Senator Ell
kins accounted for certain letters which
Elkins wrote him after January I. 1902.
and as late as February. 1902
During the granting of the prayers. At
torneyS Yellott and Worthington held an
argument as TO the legality Of the plan
in connection with the floating Of the
bonds In response TO questions by Jus
tice Wright, Mr. YellOtt contended It
would be perfectly legal perfectly proper.
and customary, if a man acquired a rail-
road at a bargain to reorganize it, bond
it. and to issue stock and to sell the in
terest he had acquired ut higher figure
than that at which he had acquired it,
That, Mr.. YellOtt cOntended. was the way
all railroads are recognized and profits
made through such reorganization.
