Of LABOR LEADERS
District Attorney Argues Case
for Committee-Decision Is
Expected in April.

Closing arguments in the appeal of
Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell. and
Frank Morrison. adjudged guilty of
contempt by the District Supreme
Court, were made before the Court Of
Appeals today by the committee of
prosecutors" comprising J. ]. Dar-
lington. Daniel Davenport, and ,CIar-
ence r. Wilson. United States. Attor-
ney.
Judge Alton B. Parker and Attor-
ney Jackson H. Ralston, counsel for
the labor leaders. completed their
pleas to have the trio from Jail yes
terday afternoon. Mr.. Ralston COW
cred the legal features of the argu-
ments.
A decision in the case is expected
the first Monday in April.
District Attorney Wilson argued the
general local questions today, going
over all the technical points in a thor
ough manner and citing numerous au-
thorities.
Attorney Davenport dealt with the
facts in the proceedings and Attorney
Darlington argued in support of the
contention that the proceedings were in
ma way criminal although the pro-
cedure was similar to a criminal action
In some respects.
Speaks Forcibly.
Attorney Davenport spoke forcibly of
the alleged defiance of the labor lead
ers in viola ting the injunction in the
Buck Stove and Range Company boy
colt case He argued that sentences
were neither cruel nor unusual because
the alleged contumacious conduct of the
defendants "transcends all previous dis
regard of judicial authority"
The prosecutor denied that the Ameri-
can Federation and its officers, particu-
laryly the three defendants. had discon-
tinued the boycott against the Buck
Company after the injunction issued by
Justice Gould became effective Decem-
Der %, 1907. He read excerpts from edi-
torials alleged to have been written by
President Gompers for the American
Federationist.
exercising their right of free speech and
the freedom of the press. declared Mr.
Davenport was not well founded In view
Of the fact that the labor men frequent
ly referred to the Buck Company and
by inference urged organized labor not
to patronize the company or buy its
products. At times he was severe in his
arraignment of the labor leaders anu
urged that they should be punished.
Attacks Assertion.
Attorney Darlington attacked the
CldlU OI the ldUOT tcdoCiS IouhSci tiiot
the bar of the statute of limitations
furnished immunity to the defendants
because more than three years had
elapsed after the alleged violation OF
the decree before the present contempt
proceeding was instituted.
He argued first that the question OF
the application of the statute of limita-
tions was not before the appellate
tribunal, although admitting that the
plea had been made in answer to the
charges. He asserted that the lower
court in no instance had been called
upon by the respondents to rule on this
question
The contention of the alleged con-
temnors that the proceedings were
criminal was also combated by Mr..
Darlington. He urged that because the
proceedings were civil the statute Of
limitations could not hold.
