tition and exhibits of B. r. Tillman. Jr.,

the deponent. Mrs. Dugas. The reading
Of these documents. both OF which were
voluminous, consumed practically the
whole time of the court until near noon,
when a recess of ten minutes was taken.
After the recess Henry A. Tillman, Of
counsel for the petitioners asked for an
extension Of time to put in evidence af-
fidavits in rebuttal to those Mrs. Dugas,
alleging that p. r. Tillman. Jr, had been

mitted that his son has been a drunkard

and Labor Nagel, has, In my opinion,

even a disturbance OF 1t for a long

Other opinions about the prosperity
reign today were:
Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia:
There is every reason to anticipate
prosperous times in the United States.
The industries of the country have
nothing to fear from Democratic revi-
sion of the tariff, and the present pros
perity will go on indefinitely"
No Depression
Is Coming.
Senator Borah, of Idaho: ~ am not
anticipating any business depression
because of the coming administration"
Senator Smoot, of Utah "In my
judgment, the tariff bills the Demo-
Gratis will pass at the extra session will
not be so radical as to affect the reign
of prosperity"
Speaker Champ Clark: with the
biggest crop ever raised with a short
age of labor and with all the factories
in the land working overtime or behind

Paschal to Blame,
Says Wickersham.

Mr.. Wickersham maintained that
Paschal had violated the railroad bull
letin, as well as the sixteen hour law,
when he undertook to carry his train
from Conyers to Lithonia. He de-
clares:
when Paschal left Conyers, knowing
as he must that he could not get to
Lithonia, put his train on siding and
go off duty, he deliberately created
condition where he must of necessity
violate the law subjecting the company
for which he worked to penalty, and
the violation is fragrant, for the reason
that at Conyers Conductor Paschal had
ample opportunity to obtain orders in
regard to what he should dot with his
train.
He admitted that the discipline adj
ministered for the initial ofrense was
too severe. Mr.. Wickersham says that
suspension of 80 days would have
been proper. but adds significantly,

Morgan was discharged for turning

that his offense was technical; that
