STEWART CASE IS
 AGAIN CONTINUED
Arguments Still to Be Heard on
 Contempt Charges

Washington, June { UpD - Argu- ments on the governments motion to strike out defense testimony in- tended to show that the senate oil Investigating committee which ques- tioned Robert w. stewart was not composed of a quorum, were contin- Ied today in the oil mans trial for refusing to answer questions asked by the committee.
 District Attorney Rover sought to eliminate the testimony of Edward j. Bullock, yice-presdent Of the Standard Oil company of Indiana. that only three senators were. pres .nt when Stewart refused to answer. The defense contended that the lack Of a quorum deprived the e4amin- alton of it's legality.
 Before the arguments started. Ing ham Mack assistant clerk or the senate committee, testified over Rover's objection that he did not know how many senators were pres ent when Stewart refused to answer. He also said that the minutes of the tOI1IullltS IHVCtAhA WIZ 'Se scribed until after he had been sub poenaed as witness in the trial, nearly four months after Stewart testified. He said the minutes were written from his original notes" Of the hearing.
 Justice Siddons reserved his de- cis' on the government motion and se tor Norris Of Nebraska. was called to the stand to testify as to the custom and usage on the senate floor and in committees in regard to auorums. He said that in both cases. once q quorum is determined present, it is resumed to continue so until tho point Is raised and no quorum is found.
 In committees. Norris said, it is not necessary that the senators be actually present to be counted in the quorum. They may ask the committee clerk by telephone to re- cord their presence.
