II Will be Determined Whether or Not

Publication Of Alleged LibeIous Ar
ticles Charged.

indianapolis, Ind, oct 1.-THE
hearing in the so-called Panama libel
case, i'm which Delavan Smith and
Charles r. Williams of this city are
defendants, was called in the federal
court today, Judge Anderson presid-
ing. The hearing is To determine
whether the defendants are To be re-
moved to the District of Columbia
for trial.
The prosecution of Mr.. Smith and
Mr.. Williams grew out of the publica-
tion i'm the Indianapolis News, of
which they are the joint owners. of
certain articles and editorials in re-
gard to the purchase by the United
States OF the Panama canal property.
Onfense at these articles was taken by
Theodore Roosevelt. Douglas Robin
son and William Nelson Cromwell of
New York; Charles p. Taft Of Gin
cinnati and others. The matter was
placed before the federal grand jury
at Washington, with the demand for
indictments against Mr.. Smith and
MIR. Williams Since the papers con-
tanning the articles I'm question had
circulated In Washington, IL was con-
tended by the government that this
constituted publication in the District
of Columbia, and that the offense. II
there was an offense, was indictabe
under the federal law in the District
of Columbia. Indictments were re-
turned under the federal statute. and
as neither of the defendants was q
resident of the District of Columbia
1t became necessary for the govern
ment to seek to remove them to the
District of Columbia for trial. 1t IL

that the present hearing Is held.

should the decision of the court be
against him Morse will have to start
in al once serving his fifteen years
sentence, which he received as long
ago as Nov. s of last year after jury
had spent weeks hearing the testl-
mony and had decided that he was
guilty of the charge in the indict-
ment.
After being sentenced to serve these
fifteen years at hard labor in the red
eral penitentiary at Atlanta. Morse
through his attorneys, obtained writ
OF error. which brought his case be-
fore the court of appeals for review
Argument on his appeal began before
the court last February. went on toi
several months afterward and was
concluded on June II of this year
when the court reserved its decision
and admitted Morse to bail in th'
sum of s125,OOO, furnished by twenty
of his friends.
Since that day Morse has been ou'
of the Tombs. where he had peer
confined since his trial began in Octo-
ber OF the preceding year. Save Tor
trip to Maine he has devoted nearly
all of his time to attending to his bust
ness here. has paid OF nearly the
whole of his $7.OO0,000 indebtedness
and has lately come into control
again of the steamship lines in when
he was so heavily interested at tne
! time of the panic.
Even should the decision OF tht
Court of Appeals be against him. u u
not likely that IL would put an imme-
date stop TO his business activities
for II is pretty certain way would o.
found TO ct his case before th'
United States supreme court. whose
final dictum will come only after an
other long wait.
Some persons thought II was al
! over with Morse when Judge Hougi
sentenced him to fifteen years in th'
, penitentiary. but from the moment NJ
heard the verdict OF guilty Morse
began to fight for his freedom harder
than ever. He has contended all aions
that he was convicted illegally be
cause the testimony showed that th'
hank had not been defrauded but nae
actually profited from his transac-
tions and also because the trial judg'
erred in telling the jury that convicted
him that II was not necessary TO prove
