THE ClGAIlIlII‘E TRIAL.
Personal Feeling Evident 1n the Great
Trust Test Case.
MANY EXCEPTIONS TAKEN.
The ‘Vares of a. Rival Company Returned
by a Prominent Firm—Magnates lilust
Appear In Court or Compulsion
Will Be Employed.
New York, June 17.-—The trial of the
ten directors of the American Tobacco
company for “conspiracy to injure
trade and commerce” was continued to-
day before Judge Fitzgerald. The
prosecution resumed the examination of
its witnesses and the defense its course
of objections. *
Mr. Choate and his colleagues are
apparently not at all discouraged by
Judge Fitzgerald’s adverse rulings.
They “kick” vigorously and in concert
at each new move by District Attorney
Olcott and his associates, and never fail
to note exceptions to the judge’s rul-
ings.
Counsel on both sides are fighting
hard, and a personal element has been
injected into their controversy which
makes it all the more interesting. It
appeared first in the opening address
of the district attorney and grew bitter
as the trial proceeded.
During the examination of witnesses
Mr. Choate had taken particular pains
to refer to the trial as a controversy
between the American Tobacco com-
pany and the National Cigarette and
Tobacco company, its rival. Mr. Olcott
had objected repeatedly, reminding the
court that he, as the representative of
the people of New York, and not the
National Cigarette company, as Mr.
Choate would have it, was the prose-
cutor. Judge Fitzgerald sustained the
district attorney, but Mr. Choate per-
lxisted and had plenty of fun out of it.
Mr. OlcOtt was nettled by the implied
reflection upon the integrity of his own
office and the grand jury. In the course
of his opening address he handled Mr.
Choate without gloves. He declared in
vigorous language that neither the Na-
tional Cigarette company nor any other
concern could make a tool of the dis-
trict attorney’s office. He referred to
Mr. Choate's attitude as nonsensical,
saying:
“Let us have no more of this non-
sense that the National Cigarette com-
pany, and not the majestic people of
this state, is the prosecutor, or if we do
let us treat it as the nonsense of which
the learned Mr. Choate is such a deli-
cious past master.”
Methods of the Trust.
H. L. Park was the first witness call-
ed today. He was questioned by As-
sistant District Attorney Carpenter
along the lines pursued yesterday, and
told of his firm’s dealings in the ciga-
rettes manufactured by the defendants’
company. Joseph H. Choate objected
to questions concerning witness’ deal-
ing in a special brand of cigarettes
named which were made by an oppo—
sition company. Mr. Carpenter replied
that if the defense admitted the trans-
action referred to in yesterday’s testi—
mony, involving the visit of the Amer-
ican Tobacco company’s official to Park
& Tilford’s respecting the firm's dealing
in the brand of cigarettes referred to,
he would not press the question. After
much argument witness told of the
firm’s having returned the balance of a
small consignment of the cigarettes in
question to the manufacturers. Cross-
examined by Mr. Choate, witness said
that his firm supplied many retailers in
different parts of the country.
A Sensation In Court.
There was a large sized sensation in
the courtroom when Mr. Olcott said:
“I wish to say that if the defendant
is going to make any point of the fail-
ure of these witnesses to identify Mr.
Butler, with whom they had conversa—
tion, the Mr. Butler who is defend-
ant in this case, I must demand that
Mr. Butler be produced in court.”
Mr. Fuller and Mr. Choate were on
their feet in an instant, objecting.
Judge Fitzgerald said:
“If the district attorney wants. any
of the defendants in court, the court
will help him.” .
“I move, then,” said Mr. Olcott, “that
a bench warrant be issued for William
H. Butler and that when he is produced
in court he be placed on bond to
secure his presence.”
Mr. Fuller said: “This is a useless
proceeding. Mr. Butler is in town, and
I happen to know that he expected to
be here this afternoon. I can vouch
for his appearance, but I will not admit
thatthe prosecution has the right to
demand his presence.”
Mr. Choate said, ”This is the first
case I ever knew where the defendant
was required to produce witnesses for
the defense.”
Mr. Olcott asked, “I understand,
then, that Mr. Butler will be produced
in court this afternoon?”
Mr. Fuller said that he would and
again said, “Not as a matter of right,
but to save time.”
Then Mr. Olcott withdrew his motion
to issue a bench warrant.
Mr. 'Choate characterized the latest
move of the persecution as an attempt
to cater to a certain portion of the pub-
lic. He arraigned the district attorney,
in a warm manner.
It was a decided victory for Mr. 01—
COtt.
Gales In Great Britain.
London, June 17.—The north of Eng—

country around that city are flooded
and the railroads submerged.

New York, June 17.-——The $600,000 gold

TIE TRIAL OF SHRIVBR.
Continuation of its Argument by the Do-
, fence I’m- a, Dismissal.
Washington, June Iii—Judge :itten—
hoefer today resumed his‘ argumenton»
the motion to order an acquittal in the
trial of John S. Shriver, Washington
correspondent of the New York Mail and
Express, charged with recusancy be-
fore. the senate sugar. investigation
from the committee of 1894. As it was
evident that the arguments on the mo—
tion would consume the entire day; the
jury was excused. District Attorney
Davis’ argument will not be submitted
until tomorrow. .
Judge Dittenhoefer devoted most of
his time today to the exposition of the
proposition that Mr. Shriver, as a news-
paper man, was privileged not to dis-
close the sources of his information.
The vilest wretch on earth, said Judge
Dittenhoefer, was he who won a
man’s confidence and then betrayed it.
“In my long experience in public life
and at the bar," said he, “I have had
occasion many times to give my con-
fidence to newspaper men, and, what-
ever other sins they may have been
guilty of, not one ever was guilty of
violation of confidence.”
' “You do not mean to say, judge,” in—
terrupted Judge Bradley, “that the vi-
olation of a promise to comply with le-
gal duty would degrade or dishonor .a
witness?” ' -
“A newspaper man,” replied Jud e
Dittenhoefer, “who would reveal te
source of his information with regard
to a matter of public moment would
disgrace and degrade himself within
the meaning of the law.”
Judge Dittenhoefer said - that this
question had not as yet received much
attention at the hands of the courts.
yet it was one that affected a large es—
tate and had a most important hear-
ing on the public welfare. “Thomas
Jefferson,” he said dramatically, “said
that it were better to have a free press
without a free government than a free
government without a free press.”
“I don’t see how we could have a
free government without a free press,”
observed Judge Bradley rather sarcas—
tically.
“Certainly not, certainly not,” replied
Judge Dittenhoefer quickly. “That
was merely Mr.- Jefferson's epigram-
m‘atic way of asserting that fact.”
A SLIGHT FOR JUDGE GARY.
He Was Not Chosen as One of the Ap
pellate Judges In Illinois.
Springfield, Ills, June III—An unusu-
al incident occurred in the supreme
court yesterday when appellate judges
-were assigned. Judge Gary, who pre—
sided at the anarchist trials, was not
assigned. Judge Magruder protested.
He said:
“The distinguished services of Mr.
Justice Gary for nearly 34 years de—
served a more fitting recognition.
Wherever modern civilization has ex—
tended its light and its blessings his
name stands as a synonym for law and
order. With his life in his hand he has
staid and suppressed the onsets of law-
lessness and disorder, and I enter my
solemn protest against the slight thus
put upon this just and fearless judge.”
Chief Justice Phillips, in his reply,
said, “With the fullest recognition of
these qualities, the majority of this
court reserved to itself the right and
discharged the duty of selecting other
judges for that place, equally learned.
industrious and able, who can and will.
with equal earnestness and as high
sense of justice, discharge these do—
ties.”
