TESTIFIED
One Of Counsel for the Defen !
Witness for Prosecution
Peculiar Incident Feature Of
ForenOOn'S Proceedings
Testimony During Forenoon
Was Decidedly Dreary
Adjournment Taken at Noon
Till Monday Morning

Bismarck, N. D., April s.-The
feature OF the day in the impeach-
ment proceedings was when f. T.
Cuthbert OF the counsel for the de-
Tense was asked to take the wit
ness stand to testify in regard to
the disposition Of a motion before
Judge Cowan for new trial in the
case OF the Hansboro State bank
We. Oberg, in which he appeared
for the defendant for Burke, Mid
daugh & Cuthperr.
There was not the slightest OBJ
lection on the part of the respond
emit that his counsel should COM
ply with the request of Counselor
Bangs of the prosecution.
The witness former partner
Middaugh, was on the stand and
testifying about his recollection Of
the case and Mr.. Cuthbert was put
on to supplement a connecting
link in the procedure of the case
with which Attorney Middaugh
was not familiar.
Mr.. Cuthbert told the counsel for
the prosecution that the case was
not decided at the present time
for the reason that he had person
ally requested the accused jurist
to withdraw his decision in the
matter, because he did not feel
Judge Oowan's ruling on a motion
was correct. Judge Cowan had
ruled against him in favor Of Con-
verse & Mosely for the plaintiff
and he felt a further investigation
should be made before the matter
was actually decided. To accom-
modate him, Cowan withdrew the
decision against a new trial.
"A further investigation of the
matter" said Mr.. Cuthbert, ''prov-
ed Judge Cowan had been correct
In the ruling against me and he
was sustained by the decision az
the supreme court"
The witness said he filed no brief,
that he had not taken up the mat
ter with the 1urist since and
could not answer for Middaugh. He
did not believe the opposing attor-
neys had taken any further steps
in the question either.
Senator diversion asked him IL he
and Judge Cowan were the only
ones present at the time Of the
transactions but the witness stated
that one of the other attorneys In
the case was also there.

London, Eng, April S--Almost sim
ultaneously in the French chamber Of
deputies and the British house of COM
mons, the American Canadian reci-
procity agreement was attacked on
the ground that such an agreement
would conflict with the favorite nation
clause Of the present treaties. Dep
uty Plichon presented the argument to
the chamber of deputies, while Sir
Edward Grey indicated a like attitude
on the part Of Great Britain.
The United States maintains that IT
will in no way conflict with the favor
lite nation clause of either treaty. and
that the case presents an exception to
the old rule.

Bismarck, N. D.. April S.--An un-
interesting recital OF claimed delayed
legal cases in the specifications of

days proceedings in the Cowan inn
parchment trial. Before the witnesses
were called to the stand. Tracy Bangs
presented leaf from the Crammond
Hotel register to the counsel for the
prosecution with the assurance that
while the accused jurist did not have
the register among the files here he
would procure the same and turn it
over as soon as possible.
