nently in this affair. However
Judge Carol claims that the
Northern paper made a mistake
by saying that he was a Colonel
and a Louisiana Tiger, though
he would have liked to have
been.
The interesting account Of
this memorable event follows:
The old veterans, blue and
gray, the North and South, met
at Gettysburg on the historic
battlefield to celebrate the
fftieth anniversary Of the battle
of Gettysburg the hardest
fought battle in the nineteenth
century, and the bloodiest Of the
Civil War. This was a glorious
meeting, a reunion Of the blue
and the gray in peace and friend
ship, such as the world has
never, and never will again
witness when we consider the
advanced age Of the old vet
eraEs." The effect Of this
mamonth meeting and reunion
of the blue and gray, the North
and South, was far-reaching and
will do more towards the restor-
alton of peace and friendship
between the once divided section
of this great country of ours
than has been accomplished for
the last fifty years.
Therefore, to give the finish
ing touch" Of binding together
peace and friendship between
the blue and the gray for the
last time, it was suggested that
two old veterans, one blue and
one gray, join hands in tying
the golden knot, and Comrade
w. 1. Shoemaker, a former
Chester boy and member of the
124th and the 18TH Regiments,
P. v, and Col. {. R. Carroll, OF
the famous Louisiana Tigers
were selected to clasp hands as
a symbol of everlasting peace
and friendship between the blue
and the gray, the North and the
South. Then the two old vet
Grams marched to the Bloody
Angle" and clasped hands across
the historic and battle-scarred
Stone Wall" cementing to-
gether for the last time and
forever friendship and love be-
tween the blue" and the
gray and their generations
that will endure forever.
The Confe{lerates speak IN Inc
highest praise Of our hospitality,
and the hearty welcome given
by the blues at this
reunion, and say when

few words for Col Martin NJ. Mulhali.
Mr.. Littlefeld said:
'Yes, / know Mulhall. He was up in
my district in 1906 Il did not admire
linn when / met him and my admiration
dwindled as my acquaintance grew.

and when the campaign was over and
l was elected / sent word to my friends
OF the National Association of Manufac-
turers that | would appreciate it highly
If Mr.. Mulhall was kept out of my dis
trict in the future"
Mr.. Littlefield denied the greater por-
tion of Mulhalrs testimony as given be-
fore the House Committee, as well as
before the Senate.
Regarding Samuel Gompers and the
American Federation of Labor, Mr.. Lit
tIefield had some interesting statements
to make. He told the committee that
during the period of his service Mr.
Gompers welded a powerful influence
over legislation.
Says GomPers Was n Power.
"He maintained a strong, aggressive,
and active labor lobby in Congress for
many years. When Gompers appeared
upon the scene his legislative opponents
furnished a speedy accession TO the popu-
lation of the tall timber"
After telling the committee that he had
never conspired to promote the passage

or defeat of legislation because the n.
A. NJ. had asked him TO do so Mr.. Lit
tlefield explained that in labor matters
his own views coincided in large measure
with the N A NJ. and their counsel. he
expressed the view that the legislative
activities of the N. A. NJ. were merely
permissible activities TO offset the ac-
tivity OF Gompers and his crowd on the
other side"
Mulhalrs charge that the N. A. M. had
spent 10000 to secure the election OF
Mr.. Littlefield in 1906 was-Gontroverted
by documentary evidence which Mr. Lit
tlefield produced.
There were a number OF members OF
the N. A. NJ. who were contributors TO
my campaign fund. There was not
contribution of a single cent from the
N A NJ direct, or from anya of its onl-
GERS" said Mr.. Littlefield.
The witness took occasion to pay
tribute TO the late Judge John ]. Jen-
lxins, of Wisconsin, former chairman OF
the House Judiciary Committee.

He is dead now" said Mr.. Littlefield,

est, and upright man. He was con-
stitutional lawyer of remarkable ability
and what he did in the course Of his pub
lie. career he did by reason of sound con-
viction and according to his views OF the
Constitution. He was a man whom money
could not sway, an honor to his profess
sion and to this House"
Mr. Littlefield defended Representative
Bartholdt of Missouri from Col Mulhall $
charc, that Bartholdt was influenced by
perso al animosity 10 oppose, certain
legislation in the House.
Former Representative .ohn ]. Gard
ner of New Jersey. who has been repeat
edly mentioned by Mulhall in his testi-
mony. appeared before the committee
late yesterday. He entered a general de-
NAL of the allegations of Mulhall that
he had been swerved from his course
in favor of eight-hour legislation by
threats from the n. A. NJ. He denied
that the intimate relations alleged by
MulhalI had ever existed between him
self and the colonel. He also denied that
either Mulhall or James A. Emery,
Washington counsel for the n. A. NJ,
had ever dictated the selection of sub
committees OF the Committee on Labor,
o. which he had been chairman from the
time of his appointment by Thomas B.
Reed in 1893 until the Democrats re-
gained the House in 1910.
The investigating committee closed its
investigation of the Mulhal charges with
the testimony Of Mr.. Gardner.

ton bill will run against in the Sem
ate committee.
The hearings are progressing very
slowly despite the fact that Senator
Owen is endeavoring to make haste. The
delay largely is due to the many ele-
mentary questions asked by the members
of the committee of those who appear
before them. 1t is planned to hold night
sessions next week.
Andrew Jay Frame, a Waukesha, Wis,
banker with fifty-One years experience
in the business endeavored to convince
the committee yesterday that the bill
discriminates against the country banks
and stated that unless the requirements
for subscription TO the stock of the
Federal reserve banks and the deposits
which member banks must place with
these regional banks are materially re-
duced the bill will become imperative
as a law because many of the banks
will go out Of the national banking
system rather than continue in it at a
loss, he added.
Senator Owen. chairman Of the Senate
Banking and Currency Committee yes
terday issued a statement on the proposed
currency reform bill in which he predict
ed that the Senate committee would make
a report on the bill not later than Oc-
tober s.
Il hope to see a report upon-the bill
within two weeks from next Ms#day,"
said Senator owen, but of course il is
difficult in the extreme to forecast with
precision the time which will be required.
Il have no doubt but that the Senate
committee will give the bill the most
vigorous and virile attention. subjectins
it to the closest scrutiny. and I have no
doubt that the Senate will be able 70
make some improvements in it
House leaders haYe abandoned their
plan for a thirty-tay recess of that
body. This action followed con-
ference between President Wilson and
Representative A. Mitchell Palmer of
Pennsylvania, at which, il is said, it
was agreed that there might be a con-
fict if the Senate were Obliged to work
while the House loafed for a month.
Consequently, it was deemed inadvis-
able to attempt to put through a joint
resolution for a recess, as was sug-
ges:ed following the passage by the
House of the currency bill.
The House will meet every three
days and transact routine business
while the Senate considers the cur
rency measure.

Blocks Executive Session.

The disposition of some of the members
of the court to go into executive session
and debate the first question raised. that
of the admission of the challenged SEN
ators, came to an end when Justice Cul-
len observed:
THE presiding judge is of the opinion
that this matter should be determined
now, but if my brothers of the court
want to consider that. of course they
may adjourn TO do so at their pleasure.
II no such request is made. We will pro-
ceed with the disposition of the case
now before us"
No such request was made, and the vote
showed no one that dissented from the
opinion of the presiding judge.
The motion to exclude Wagner was
based on the contention that he would
benefit by the impeachment by becoming
lieutenant governor 70 the event of Sui
zer's removal. Frawley, Sanner, and
Ramsperger were declared unfit by the
defense because they had sat on the
committee that gathered evidence against

and the Speaker that they would not re-
main in session another night. II forced
to do so they threatened TO break away
from the organization and vote against
the impeachment managers. At hurried
meeting of the board of managers 1t was
decided to put off the amendments until
Thursday. BY that time the trial Will be
well under way. and it will be too late to
add the new charges.
Although such legal heavy-weights as
Alton B. Parker, for the prosecution
and ID. Cady Herrick and Louis Marshall
for the defense, took a wordy part in the
big fight in the high court today, the
presiding judge, with few words, took
charge of the situation and directed II

ed out, however, that in the Cohalan
case the same rules were adopted and
were interpreted so literally that almost
any evidence for or against the respond
ent was admitted.
The afternoon session was given
over wholly to the long argument of
Louis Marshall against the jurisdiction
of the court. Mr. Marshall held that
the Assembly had no right to impeach
Sulzer in special session, and that, con-
sequently, the court acting on a
faulty indictment, had no right to try
the case. He read his argument from
printed brief of more than ninety
pages, and was still reading when the
hour of adjournment came, at $3.50

Judging by the length of today's
proceedings, at least two days more
will be required for the arguments.
Although the presiding Judge is dis
posed to hurry the case along as fast
as he can, he has no power over the
tongues and wind of the lawyers, and
both sides are prepared to make argu-
ments of length unheard of, save on
the floor of the United States Senate.
