Johnson, a citizen of the l"lrlsh Republic" at the trial of Jeremiah A. O'Leary. former editor of Bull. charged with violation of the espionage act.
 Johnson made this statement under examination by O'Leary. The court sus- tained objections by government attor- neys to further questioning of this nature.
 After John R. Jones, an attorney, had testified that while OLeary was a sup tenant in his office and had fled wes: on the eve of his trial, department or justice agents had taken O'Leary's papers from the safe, without showing war rant OLeary and Federal District At torney Osborne became involved in an ar gument, which resulted in MT. Osborne exclaiming:
 We can show that the witness has committed wilful and deliberate perjury in the last five minutes"
 Later MT. Osborne produced letter to him from the grand jury charging John son with uttering falsehood, which Johnson said he considered a huge joke" as it was not correct. legal pro cedure. He testified also that he had dared Earl B. Barnes, assistant federal district attorney, to indict him on Una. charge and that no indictment was re- turned.'' .S

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York February 25.-The market today was quiet, but with rather steadier undeftone than has recently been the case. Notices appeared on March and that month improved rela- lively with the later deliveries. Some southern selling appeared in May and July, which, together with the selling by local traders who are again bearish. held the market down most of the day. There is little better demand from the trade and we think this is likely to continue as no large stock of cotton has been accumulated either here or abroad by consumers in the past few months. More bad weather is pre- dicted for the southwestern belt. where clear weather is needed now for pre- liminary farm work. This weather led to some demand for the distant deliv- erie. lest the crop might get bad
