GARLAND.
THE A TTOTtNEY-G EXEllAIi A
- WITNESS BEFORE EXAM-
INING COMMITTEE.
HE
SAYS HE ALWAYS
LAW AM) LOST
1'OKIilL
WOX
AT
AT
Washington April 10. The announcement that
Attorney-General Garland was to annear before
the telephone investigation committee caused a
larger attendance than usual this morning. The
attorney general appeared looking pale aud rather
feeble. With a courteous salute to the committee.
he immediately took the stand. Or. invitation ot the
chairman he began to make a statement of his con
nection with the Pan-electric company. '"He
wished" d)f said "to lay before the committee and
re-alliriii matter contained in his statement to the
president on OctolnT Sth last. In addition he
w ished to explain two or three points in that state-
ment. In February 1SS:1 Gen. Atkins had said to
witness lie believed lingers' inventions were of
great utility if properly handled: that money could
he made out of lliem. lieing a poor man like him
self Gen. Atkins had desired witness to enter Into
tins.
"I told him." said the witness "that I had never
undertaken to make any money except by law and
poker: had always lost at poker and generally won
at law; was willing to go into this thing if he
thought it offered anv inducements."
Continuing witness said Senattr Harris made
substantially the same statement aViout the inves-
tigations and two or three days afterward lie
(witness) had been introduced to lingers and his
son at their home. He brielly told of the organiza
tion of the Pan-electric .oniany as detailed by
Senator Harris and other witnesses and then
turned his attention to the appl cations made to
lilni to bring suit against the Hell company. It
was on Inference unit not a tact lie sant uiui me
Pan-electric company made the application. The
inference is founded on two reasons: Hirst That
Col. Young came with other gentlemen in the
latter part of July and witness knew him to he
secretary anu treasurer 01 me ran eieciric; aim
second llecause the witness had on May 25th
received a letter from Rogers requesting suit to be
brought as a stockhold r of the company. Coup-
ling these facts together witness took it for grant-
ed the Paii-ICIeetric made application. It was
simply an inference. Xo nsme bad been men-
tioned. Witness had treated lingers' letter as per-
sonal and knew lingers had no authority to make
the application and that such an application musi
come from the president of the company. There-
fore the letter had remained unanswered and per-
sonal papers hail not been Hied in July. .Mr. Van
Hcnthuscn had presented the application and tiled
the suit basing it on the law w hich he stated had
been passed at the last session of congress. Wit-
ness had heard of the law liefore that and had had
the same search made but could not ilnd the act.
Tne application however was so well w ritten and
apparently set out the passage of the bill
so positively that witness felt there must
he some mistake and that the bill had
become a law. The application had been referred
by witness to the interior department where it
should have gone in the first instance and witness
Imil lieu 11I no more of it until it had been returned
last Januajv with other papers. After receiving
Von ilenthnvsen's letter witness has set to work
to examine into the matter. Though he had no in-
tention .0 that effect he was satisfied other appli-
eiitions would be made. Looking over the author
ities he concluded he could not older the suit and
w hen the gentleman came he had determined lie
would not touch it at all under any circumstances
While witness was still in the senate Senator
Piatt had come to him one day with a bill to author-
ize government suits. He had asked his opinion
of it. Witness had looked it over and said he re-
garded it as unnecessary that it would do no good.
That was all he ever said or heard of the bill until
it had been brought to his attention through the
application ill the early part of the fall. Mr.lluni-
phries of the Globe Telephone company called
upon him at the department about tho application.
1 llliilllll UU litta wiu n j.mi . ...v
said witness.
hart insisted that he (witness) must
order the suit. He had said that it was very curi-
ous that because he (witness) was in another com
pany mat ins (.iiuuipiirejB ) rigum boiu ho mo
reirMnlefl.
"He got mad because I wonldn t no anytning
about It" said the witness "and we parted not.
without mutual respect and admiration at an.
Witness rlenied he had ever given an opinion
about liimi -The opinion he had given and the
only opinion was to the effect that the Pan-Electric"
inventions were no infringements that they
were an improvement on telephones that were
patented at dinereni limes on a wen-recognizeu
nrineiole. Although witness was the attorney for
the company yet Young and Senator Harris usu-
ally drew up the legal papers and when they were
referred to him (witness) made sticn alterations as
seemed to be necessary. These papers had been
submitted to witness in the senate judiciary room
but it was a mistake to say that any board meet-
ini's had been held in that room. Witness was
satisfied that he hail never aiteniiea a iiieeinig 01

tions adopted at a citizens' meeting held at the
court house in this city on the Ittth inst. anil re-
questing me to appoint or cause the proper

three reddent directors of the south-
western railway system in conformity with
said resolution and cause tlie names of the same
to he reported to Dr. rnoinus u neiuy presioeni
of said meeting. The substance of this resolution
seems to be the appointment of a commission of
citizens of St. Louis three from the resident di-
rectors of railways Interested and three from resi-
lient labor organizations of nresent or recent em
ployes ot the railways to ne seiecieu me

spectre interests to meet confer and arrange with

The premise upon wnicu me proposition .or me
mniiiiiiiinent of such a committee rests is the
statement in the preamble to the resolution that
the trade and commerce of the city of St. Louis
and inter-state commerce through St. Louie to
and from all trade points of the Missouri Pacific
and of the St. Louis iron .Mountain and Southern
railways has been for over a month and stdl is

respectfully call your auenuon ana mrougii yoh

He fur. then as the nublic or this company are

The action of such a committee would necessari-

After the serioiu interruption which tb business
of St. Louis has already suffered and at s time
when through the protection of the civil author!
ilea und through extraordinary exertions in pro-
curing suitable lalsir tills company has re-opened
Us lines and fully established Its traffic.
It Is to me a matter of sincere regret that any
nortion of its citizens should send broadcast over
the land to the detriment of the city a statement in
regard to the obstruction of traffic over two of its
principal roads wbiih I am satisfied the great
body of the business men of the city would decline
to endorse. Whatever may have been the difficul-
ties for sohition during the last month in relation
to the resumption of traffic they do not exist to-
day. The railway companies are expending their
time energies and money to keep open the avenues
of commerce for the nublic benefit are
succeeding in io doing and are sol-
vent citizens amenable as such through
the courts to the state and Individuals. ' Another
partv to the proposed conference is avowedly ex-
pending its time and money for the purpose
of blockading the avenues of commerce and Is
not legally constituted a solvent citizen and can-
not lie reached.
In conclusion I desire to call your attention to
the replv of the president of this company to the
communication of Mr. I'owderly published since
the date of vour meeting which fully sets forth
the position (if this company and which no words
of mine could render more explicit.

TIIE. REMARKS OF 1IEFBURX. OF
IOWA. AND CltAlX OF
TEXAS.
Washington. April 21. In considering the ap-
nrooriiiiions for r vers Hiitl harbors. Mr. Hei.hnrn.
f Iowa moved to strike out the paragraph ap-
orooriating 400.000 for the improvement of Gut
veston harbor. lie could see no material differ
ence between the proposed plan of improvement
and that w 1U n nail neen denounced ny me uaives-
tos representative (Ochiltree) during the last con-
gress The points ot dinerence netween me tw o pians
ere tletaile.l by Messrs. Stewart Keagan and
rain who also 'pointed out the great importance
of Galveston harbor to the commerce of the
co.Mitrv.
Sir. I rain Inquired whether there was any appro-
priation in the bill for the district represented by
the gentleman from Iowa and Sir. Hepburn re-
died in the negative stating there was no naviga-
iln river in low.
.Mr. Crain regarded that fact as the "milk In ti e
cocoanut. If the gentleman had a share ot tne
oork be would not have made anv complaint.
Mr. llenbiirn suggested that the gentleman's re
marks seemed to imply that no one hail a right to
tatk about the hill except those who had some pork
in tin. burrel.
The motion to strike out was lost-mto si hut
it was agreed that a vote should he taken upon u or telling the truth and these observa-
in the house . . . . . .

Sir. Xeirley regarded the clause extraordinary
unconstitutional antl without precedent. It was
promised to confer on the executive officer of the
gover ment power to seize private franchises aud
'irc ws
not well taken as the reasons given lo support u
went entirely to the question of expediency of the
i.-visinierii. . ...
S r. Keagan. of Texas moved to strike out tne
clause declaring mam was a piain proposition io
confiscate the property of the company and to ig-
nore lis .mrtir rlirnts. I
Mr. Havne. of Pennsylvania said the Monongo-
lieln river was a National highway and ill support
of that proposition declared that the tonnage of
that river was greater than of any other river In
the country or of the harbor ot lew lorn aii
this tonnage would have to pay tribute to a corpo-
ration if the clause were stricken from the bill.
TMe coal landing adjacent to the river was worth a
prodigious stun.
Sir. Kelly of Pennsylvania thought the propo
sition embodied in me mil w as nine snort oi in-
famous. It was a proposition i to dispose of the TuAT Thkib Immolation mt not Fob-
individual rights of citizens of Pennsylvania by a
town meeting. To adopt it would show that the
doctrines ot socialism columned congress aim
that the rights of individuals were no longer to ne
held sacred.
Mr. Hewitt of New York concurred with Mr
Kellev in regarding the liroliositlon as an extra
nnliiiiirv one. It was the aoolication of a colossal
mendicant who came here ami asked congress to
ailil to his coffers a read V over lowing. It was till'
owners of these coal fields who were unwilling to
pav ordinary deceut wages to laborers. It was
there that Hungarians. Pole and Italians were
employed and yet these men reveling in their
ureal wealth cnn'ie here antl asked to be allowed
to put their ootids into the treasury. He protested
against it in behalf of the taxpayers of the
country.
'Tfte'r further debate on motion of Mr. Willis of
Kentucky that nortion of the clause was stricken
out which gives the secretary discretionary power
to seine the works of the Navigation company.
Pending further action the committee rose and
the house adjourned

plex thoughts as one attempts to account
for the utter disparity between the stu-
pendous results which followed it and the
smallnessof the means employed. Man
has engorged the very earth with blood;
he has incarnadined tlie sea with the life-
tide ebbing from his brother's gaping
wounds- yet how very few of the sanguiu-
ary battles of history have
been decisive in their conso-
quences. Jan Jacinto was one of the
world's decisive battles. No nation or

present cost. To him who writes this the
disoarity mentioned is the mystery which "m- i ne voioeiess stone . uu
still hovers over Sun Jacinto; it is a prob- ' newsgatherer a more potent invooa-
lem to which he has repeatedly addressed to a warmer patriotism than the
himself and to the bottom of which he
has never been able to paolie. He has
tried to subside into the creed of fatalism
and believe that it was a race in which
BAM HOUSTON WAS PUBHUINU DESTINY
and that he overtook it on the field of San
Jacinto.
The stillness of a Christian Sabbath en
veloped the temporary vapitol. Heads of
departments together with their assist-
ants and clerks were alike observant of
the day. On the first and second floors
closed "doors and untenanted halls gave
witness of the sacred inviolability with
which the day was being observed. Con
trasting this oppressive silence with the
busv hum which pervades the building on
secular days the lines of Tom Hood's
"Haunted House" came to the lips with
out volition:
'O'er all there hung the shallow of s fear;
A sense of mvstery the spirit daunted
And said as plain as whisper ia the eai
The bouse Is haunted.-"
On the third floor the monotony was
broken by the cheery voices qf two judges
of the superior courts who were in
trenched behind frowning battlements of
text books reports and transcript- To
the challenge of The Statesman repre-
sentative they replied that they were il-
lustrating their patriotism by doing work
on San Jacinto day which would other
wise go undone. Just here let tne -8. r.
interject a parenthesis on our Judiciary
system: The judiciary act of the state
of Texas needs vigorous overhauling and
amending. Its defects are many and
glaring .especially in matters of criminal
pleading and practice. These were pre-
sented to the Nineteenth legislature by
the learned judges composing the court
of appeals but the nx-grinders permitted
these intelligent recommendations to fail
of enactment through inaction. It is not
however of this that it is now designed to
speak. First of all the labor imposed on
the two coufts is too hard and exacting.
The state must either re-establish an ad
junct court similar to the late commis-
sion of appeals or what is preferable in
crease the number of judges. We have
recently seen an ornament of the supreme
bench a citizen of Austin stricken
dopn in the maturity of his powers
t. .Ka ..an.ii .1 .i n i .1 j n Vit ..iili.ill
. . " ..
Rt 1 now true OI nun Will lie true ot
others of the two superior courts unless
their burdens nre lightened. Again the
salaries of these positions are entirely dis-
proportnmed to the dignity and respon
sibility of the offices and to the amount
of labor performed. Ihe grent state or.
Texas is not a niggard to stint its ser-
vants. If so lot its places of honor and
trust be farmed out by contract or let to
the lowest bidder. If present salaries are
adhered to. one of two things will follow:
Either the judicial offices will be tilled by
lawyers who have independent incomes
or by political hacks who have nothing to
lose. CVrtoinly any lowyer whose attain-
ments entitle him to this elevation is able
to earn more than $3550 per annum.

THE KUINH OF THE ALAMO."
In these buriiing words reverence for an
overruling Providence and a deathless
patriotism nre the prominent features.
Turning the stone to tlie left tne next
side is thus inscribed:
"BiiOiin of Heuoes Hath Stained Me:
Let the Stones of tub Alamo Speak
ootten..
"Stones of the Alamo!" They speak
to-dny and will continue to speak until
the Hio Grande retruces its course to the
mountains that gave it birth.
Turning still further this inscription is
found:
"Bk They Enuoi.i.ed With Lkonidah in
the Host of the Mighty Dead."
The muse of history will send tlie names
of Travis Croeket and their
compatriots "sounding down the ages"
as long as there is left a native or adopted
son ot TexHB to bequeatn rur nis
blessings.
On the last side of this quadrilateral
stone are these sad words:
"THERMOPYLAE HAD ITS MESHENOEB OF DE-
FEAT; THE ALAMO HAD NONE."
No not one of that devoted band sur-
vived to tell to the startled settlers ita s
mournful story Thermopylie has been em-
balmed in story and in song yet it was a
sacrifice to prevent the interruption of a
heathenish mummery the Alamo was a

died in all the grandeur of accepted death;
