LISTENS TO
JAS. a. EMERY

Washington, D. c., Aug. S.--James
A. Emery testified today before the
senate lobby committee that James
w. Vancleave, leader in the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers.
had large part in the steps that led
to the organization of the National
Tariff Commission association, which
however, had no connection with the
National Association of Manufacture
ers or the Industrial Council.
Emery testified that the tariff COM
mittee association employed former
Representative James E. Watson, of
Indiana, and not the National Asso-
citation of Manufacturers or the In
dustrial Council.
Two $500 checks to Watson drawn
by the manufacturers had previously
been put in evidence, and Senator
Walsh expressed surprise at the ap.
parent contradiction. Emery said he
had been told that the checks were
accounted for by bookkeeping ex-
pedient, the National Association of !
contributor to the /
tariff association, paying the sums
direct to the former congressman.
Senator Reed developed that ma
jority of the members of the execu-
i've committee of the tariff commit
ee association were Also members OF

SENTENCE Of BRO WN

john Brown: You have heen charged
with three several and distinct offences
of the deepest criminality: with the at
tempt to subvert by force the institu-
ton Of slavery as established in this
State; with advising slaves to rise in
rebellion against the authority of their
owners, and with the wilIful, deliberate
and premeditated murder of several of
our citizens, who, as was their duty, as
was their duty, opposed the execution
of these unlawful purposes, and for so
doing were shot down by the party I'M
der your command For each Of these
Cffenses the law denounces the penalty
of death. and now it only remains for
me. as the minister of the law, to pro-
nounce its =judgm ent upon you. Not
reasonable doubt can exist as to your
guilt of each and every of these offer
ces. Your own repeated admissions.
aid all the other evidence in the case,
fully sustain the verdict that has been
rendered. / deem it unnecessary to
recapitulate any portion of hiseyidence,
for every part of it, that adduced by
yourself, as well as that introduced by
the prosecution, contributes to prove
that you had come with your followers
into this county determined to carry
into execution by force the unlawful
purpose of liberating the Southern
slaves.
You have been defended by counsel
of marked ability, the jury gave their
patient attention to every argument
addressed to them in your behalf.
You have had the protection and the
benefit of every principle of law and of
every privilege secured to persons ac-
.cused of crime, and of every indulgence
in making your defence that could rea-
sonably be extended to you, and yet
you have. been found by an impartial
jury of your countrymen to be guilty of
the offences charged against you.
In mercy to our own people to pro-
tect them against similar invasions
upon their rights in mercy and by way
of warning to the infatuated men of
other States, who, like you, may at
tempt to free our negroes by forcing
weapons into their hands. the Judgment
of the law must be enforced against
you. The execution of that judgment
will be delayed fully sufficient time to
enable you to apply to the Supreme APP
pellate tribunal of the State for it's de-
cision upon the errors which are alleged
by you and your counsel in the proceed
ings against you. This is a right se-
cured to you by our law, and it is my
duty to see you are not deprived of it.
The sentence of the law is that you,
John Brown. be hanged by the neck. un-
til you be dead, and that execution of
this judgment be made and done upon
you by the Sheriff of this county, on
Friday, the second day of December
next, between the hours of nine in the
forenoon end four in the afternoon of
| the same day. And the Court being of
opinion that for the sake Of example
the execution. and that all our dealings
with the accused be done in open day
and before 81 men, Of this sentence
