Mr.. Holme was twice before the COM
mittee. When he declined TO state
whether he had had conference with
Mr.. Marshall or any Of the Uniteo
States Attorneys associates previous
to the writing Of the article he was
committed 70 the custody OF K. Is. Cor
don, serCeant-at-arms OF the House
who did not know what 70 do with hi
charge. Mr Gordon then took Mr
Holme 20 United States Marshal Nc
Carthy. who also refused 20 receive
him. maintaining that he could not take
a prisoner into custody without com
mitment from a court OF competent
Jurisdiction. lnasmuch as the com
mittee was not a court. Mr.. Holme
strolled OF down Park Row with the
sergeant-at-arms.
The committee then went into,e1ecu-
tive session 20 try 20 ascertain the law

that the matter was wholly IN the
hands Of Congress itself the committee
resumed its hearing, and again put
