The mouldings preliminary to the pass-
ing of the «ounce occupied over two

hours. The three defendants were on .

hand early and responded to Judge! Hil-
ler'e question as to whether they had any-
thing to say why misuse should not be
lmpceed. Messrs. Hudson. Pence end By~
man of the counsel and Coxey and Browne
all en omitted remarks.

Representative Hudson went over many
features of the case already brought out

tics Brewer of the supreme court had once
decided. in keeping with the defendants’
contention, a case similar to the present
one. where the information on which the
defendants were tried was not supported
by an affidavit.

Thousands of people. Mr. Hudson said.
had stepped on the grass on that May day

were selected as objects of prosecution.
Mr. Hudson was bitter against what he
declared was the jugglery of the metro-
politan press and said there was a demand
bytbe money power for the punishment of
the men.

Mr. Pence contended that an imprison-
ment of the defendants would lead the
people to believe they were prosecuted for
their political opinions.

Browne Was Defiant.

Colonel Browne tried to make one of his
florid roadside speeches. but was soon
called down by the judge. He had been
compelled to be passive in this defense,
Browne said. He had made a mistake in
asking for a jury trial. He had started
from Mussillou know'i'ng that there existed
a cobwah of a law that prohibited the peo-
ple from assembling. and he came here, he
declared. with the intention of defying
that law. If he was found guilty, he
ought to be sentenced. It was only by
such means that the people con id beshown
that there were laws that trod on their
rights. lie asked no mercy and would so-
cept the punishment given him and then
walk forth into the sunlight of the good
feeling of his fellow men, which would
inaugurate a movement. that would do
away with cobweb laws.

Mr. Coxcy declared that it was the first
time he had appeared inacourt for sen-
tence, and it was a pleasing thought that
he was innocent of the charges on which
he was convicted. lie was not surprised at
the verdict. lle did not appeal for mercy.
because he had committed no crime, but
he did ask for justice.

Justice Miller said before imposing sen-
tence that it was the court's duty to keep
well in line with the law in causes like
these and to exclude all other considera-
tions. Persons had come here simply in
pursuit of a dream of Mr. Coxey that some-
thing would turn up when they arrived
here. The very first act Coxsy did was to

the laboring men of the violation of the
law under the guise of constitutional rights
that every schoolboy knew did not exist.

Had Mr. Corey come to the capitol and
made an honest effort to ameliorate the
conditions of the working people he would
have met with ’a generous and manly re-
sponse. but he did not do this. Hs(Judge
Miller) could not imagine a case where the
court was more justified in imposing the
full penalty of the law. He then imposed
the sentences of 20 days’ imprisonment on
Coxey. Browne and Jones on one charge.
and of to or in days’ on Coxey and Drowns
on the other charge.

Coxey Issues a Bulletin to Patriots.

Coxey, before his sentence. issued a man-
ifcsto in the shape of bulletin No. 5 to the
”American patriots of little."

The bulletin review: the recent storm of
financial and industrial distress, which. it
is claimed. has been gathering for a dozen
years.

The bulletin concludes with an appeal
for aid both material and moral for tho
commoniveal. "Send money and sup
piles, and above all write to your congress
men and senators and encourage them to
vote for the bills. liold mass meetings,
write letters and telegraph sentiment to
them. Let congress know that you are
emphatically with us. and the bills may
be passed by July 1. and if they are not
and congress ad journs let every Fourth of

AN ULTIMATUM.

Central Pennsylvania Operators "-vm Open
Their Mines.

PHILADELPHM. May 22.—-An important
meeting of soft coal mine operators from
the central Pennsylvania region, where
the miners are now on strike. was held in
this city. Every operator in the district
was present, and it was unanimously
agreed that the men should be given iin-
til Msy 28 to return to work. If they fail
to do so by that time, the mines will be
thrown open to whoever seeks employ-
ment, and those men who decide to go to
work will be protected by the operators.

The meeting was very harmonious, and
at the conclusion the 25 operators who par-
ticipated in the conference left the city for
their homes determined to run their mines
at all hazards. .

A resolution was adopted to the effect
that the operators unanimously agree that
it is impossible to pay their employees
more than their present wages of «w cents
per ton for digging coal. The resolution
says further that. while the mine owners
prefer to have their old miners at work, if
they do not care to resume they «hamper-
stors) will take such measures as' they
deem necessary to conduct their business.

The territory represented at the meeting
embraces what is known as the Clearfleld
and allied districts. Between 10,000 and
12,000 miners are employed, all of them be-
ing either Irish, Hungarians or Swades.
the first named race predominating. Since
the men went out on April 21, pursuant to
orders issued by the president of the Na—
tional Mine Workers‘ union, they have re-
mained quiet and orderly. Reports re-
ceived here from time to time indicate
that the men have simply awhited the out-
come of the negotiations which they felt
sure the representatives of their union
would enter into with the employers and
have shown no tendency to be unruly or
impatient.

latts's Testimony Interesting. _

Fragmentary references to the
lugs leave little room for doubt that when
our"

ad t will make very reading. He
first demanded a transcilpgty of the report
of the testimony of preceding witnesses,
but compromised by accepting a proposi-
tion that the reporter should read the per-
tions of the testimony of other witnesses
which reflected upon him in any way.

He was thus confronted with the state-
ment that Senators Kyle and Boston had
identified him as the man who had at-
tempted to corrupt them. and, having in
his letter to Senator Hansbrongh laid the
responsibility for this charge at the doors
of the newspapers and relieved the sons-
tors from all blame, be was placed in a
somewhat embarrassing position. The
brief references to his testimony obtaina-
ble indicate that he made an eifort to ex-
cuse himself and explain away the entire
charge. -

lie explicitly denied any intention on
his part. to corrupt the senate and made
more remarks, the pertinence of which the
committee found it difficult to under-
stand. ]t is also understood that he po-
litely declined to answer some of the more
pertinent questions put to him by mem-
bers of the committee.

Other witnesses of the afternoon session
were Duncan hicFariane. Senator Kyle's
clerk._and James W. Walker, an attorney
of this city, who gave Buttz a letter of in-
troduction to Eppa llunton, Jr. Mr. Walk-
er stated that when Butts asked for a let'
ter to Mr. liunton he had stated that he
wanted to cuiploy him as attorney in a
land case and had given no other reason
for wanting to know that gentleman.

Mr. McFarlane told how, after Senator
Kyle had referred Butts to him. he had
talked with him and made notes upon his
conversation. lie confirmed Senator Kyle's
statement and said explicitly that Butts
had made a direct proposition to bribe the
senator to vote against the tariff hill. lie
also submitted his notes on his conversa—
tion with Buttz.

 

In House and Senate.

WASHINGTON, May 22.—'l'he senate held
an eight hour session from 10 in the morn-
ing until il in the evening. The entire time
was spent debating the proposed senate
duty of 40 cents per ton on iron ore. The
house bill platmd iron are on the free list.
and the Republicans took occasion to taunt
the Democrats with inconsistency and with
being false to their pledges to give the
country free raw materials when they ob-
tained control of the government. Some
very sharp encounters occurred. Only one
vote was token—that on Mr. l’efler’s
amendment to transfer iron ore to the free
list. Senator Hill of New York was the
only Democrat who voted in favor of it.
The others storxi by the caucus and voted
against it with the Republicans.

The earl y part of the proceedings in the
house was devoted to a legal dimzuseion
concerning an amendment declaring that
the statute which directs the sergeantoat-
arms to make deductions from the salaries
of members on account of absence had
been repealed. The chairman ruled the
amendment out of order. but was in turn
overruled by the house on an appeal. The
amendment was then alioptcd. The Dam-
ocrats declared that a separate yea and
any vote on the nmendnu-ut would be de-
manded in the house. lnthc morning Mr.

. Paul J. 50m, recently elected to succeed

the late lieprenentutivc liuuk of Ohio. was
sworn in.
