. q
Washington, Jan. 10- The Brown
son affair was the chief topic OF dis.
cussion in the senate yesterday It
was brought UP when Senator Hale
explained the navy personnel bill
which. was introduced by him. The
presentation OF the bill led Senator
Tillman to ask whether the members
of the committee would have an op-
portunity to get facts in relation to
the controversy over the Brownson
affair. Mr.. Tillman intimated that
he wished to call before the commit
tee witnesses to testify concerning
this matter. Mr. Hale replied that
he thought there would be no OBJ
stacle to allowing the senator to do
that. Senator Hale said he had pre-
ferred securing the facts In connec-
tion with the consideration !of the
bill instead OF holding an tnvegtiga-
tion Of the particular incident which
had been the subject for so much
public comment.

New York, Jan. 10.-One new
sworn juror was added to the Harry

seven in all selected, from 400 tales
ment summoned since the beginning
of the second hearing on Monday.
Another panel Of 100 will report to-
day. Justice Dowling has announc-
ed that he will hold court on Sat
urday, if necessary to complete the
jury. AT the time Of the luncheon
recess yesterday, the box was filled
with six permanent and six tempor-
ary jurors, but penmptory chal-
lenges swept all of the provisional
men away. Just before adjournment
hour at 6 O'clock, when yesterdays
venire had been exhausted, five tenn
porary jurors had again been select

The sole survivor of the day, who
took his place as trial juror number

clerk in the auditing department of
the New York Central railway. The
rate of progress was not gratifying
either to the prosecution of the de-
fense.
Patrick McCue, hat manufactur-
er, furnished the only bit Of color to
the proceedings yesterday by declar-
ing that he had never heard Of the

TAFT GIVES VIEWS
ON INJUNCTION l
ANSWERS QUESTIONS PUT TO
HIM BY OHIO fedora
TON OF LABOR
The Secretary Says He Believes It
Beneficial for Laborers to Unite to
Further Their Interests When
Strikers Are Served Sth Injunc-
ton They Give Up ght Not
Knowing Just What ! Cleans.

Martins Ferry, Ohio, q. 10.
The views of William H. aft, sec
retary of war, in regard t he use
and abuse of injunctions stated
in letter in reply to questions pro-
pounded by Llewellyn Lewis, secre-
tary of the Ohio Federation of Labor,
given out yesterday. Secretary Taft
prefaces his statement with the dec
laration that he believes, "it to be
highly beneficial and entirely lawful
for laborers to unite in their COM
mon interests" Proceeding directly
to the answer of the questions pro-
pounded he says:
'tI see no objection to the enact
ment of a statute which shall define
the rights of laborers in their con-
troversies with their former employ
ers.
'I do not see any objection to the
re-enactment of the federal statute
providing that no restraining order
shall issue except after notice to the
defendant and the hearing is had
The power to issue injunctions ex.
parte has given rise to certain abus-
es and injustice to laborers engaged
in peaceable strike. When temp.
orary restraining order is served on
all strikers, their fears are aroused
by the process-for they are not
lawyers-by the process with which
they are not acquainted. Therefore
their determination to carry on the
strike is weakened. To avoid this
injustice, believe that the federal
statute might we'll be made what ii
originally was, requiring notice and
hearing before injunctions issue. "
In answer to the question as to
what he thought of the provision in
such cases by which the person
charged with the violation Of the or
der Of injunction, might object to
the judge who issued the injunction
as the one to try the issue as to the
violation, Secretary Taft said:
ut is Of the highest Importance
that the authority of the court to en-
force it's own orders effectively
should not be weakened, and there
fore l am opposed to intervention OF
a jury between the courts decree and
its enforcement by contempt proceed
ings. do not think that the per-
mission to change judge, however,
would constitute either a serious de
lay or injure the efficacy Of the ord
er, while it may secure greater pub
lie confidence IN the justice of court
action. The appearance Of justice Is
almost as important as the existence
of it in the administration Of the
courts.
Yours sincerely,
VIM. H. TAFT"
