CASE OF TIIEO. MOWN.
A Oncstlon Before ths Supremo Court
la of Important), to the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
Washington, Jan, 23. The attention
of the supreme court of the United
States today was engaged in the con
sideration, upon oral argument, of one
of the most Important cases on the
docket. It was the appeal of Theodore
V. Brown, from the Judgment of the
circuit court for the western district
of Pennsylvania refusing to discharge
lilm on a writ of habeas corpus from
the custody of J. W. Walker, United
States marshal for the district named,
and it Involved the constitutionality of
the amendment to the Inter-state com
merce law made in the Fifty-second
congress In order to cure the defeat
which was made manifest In the coun
selman case.
Brown Is auditor of the Allegheny
Valley railroad and In an examination
of certain oflloers of the company by
the federal grand Jury at nttsburg for
alleged violation of the law, he de
clined to answer certain questions, on
the ground that to do so would tend to
criminate him, Invoking the constitu
tional guarantee for protection. The
oae being reported to the court. Brown
was directed to testify, and again re
fusing, was held to be In contempt.
He appealed to the circuit court for
release on his writ of habeas corpus
but that court discharged the writ and
remanded Brown to custody. The wit
ness was adjudged to be bound to an
swer under the amendment to the la
ter state commerce act of February 11,
1S9.1, providing that In cases arising
under the Inter state commerce act,
the witness should not be excused
from answering on the ground that his
answer might tend to criminate him
self, because it was provided "but no
person shall be prosecuted or subject
to any penalty or forfeiture, for or on
account of any transaction, matter or
thing concerning which he may testi
fy or produce evidence, documentary
or otherwise, before said commission,
or In obedience to its subpoena, or the
subpoena, of either of them or in any
uch cause or proceeding."
Importance of the Question,
The case was argued by Mr. James
C. Carter, of New York, fqr Brown, and
by ex-Senator Edmunds, of Vermont,
now residing in Philadelphia, nominal
ly for the marshal, but really for the
lnter-state commerce commission. The
Importance of the case, for upon Its
determination depends the successful
enforcement of the law,- as well as the
reputation of. the attorneys engaged,
attracted to the court a large attend
ance of lawyers.
The argument was wholly upon con
stitutional grounds and could not be
described as popular In any sense. The
question at Issue was whether or not
the constitutional protection Invoked
by Brown could be rendered Inopera
tive by the legislative declaration In
the amendment. Mr. Carter contended
that It could not. and that tne law
was unconstitutional; ex-Senator Ed
munds contended that it could, and
that the law was constitutional.
MARRIAGE A FAILURE.
A womia Leaps from a Window to

swer for the murder of his wife, whom
he savagely attacked while drunk yes
terday In their home.

hospital and will probably die.

THE WORLD OF BUSINESS
Wall Street Review.
New York. Jan. 23. The railway and
miscellaneous stock market was quiet
again today and the general run of ac
tive issues were lower. A few stocks,
notably Manhattan and SugSr, were
strong and closed with net gains. The
other prominent Issues were Inclined to
weakness throughout and lacked sup
port. In the early trading London,
which had been a buyer on previous
days of the week, turned up as a seller
of St, Paul and Louisville and Nash
ville, the. result of rumors current
abroad of an alliunce oetween Russia
and Turkey, which complicates the
European political situation. Sterling
exchange also strengthened because of
an increased demand for Saturday's
mail and posted rates for long bills were
advanced J,j cent. This also affected
the stock market adversely. This also
tne stock market adversely. The loss
in prices outside . of the Industrials,
however, was slight. Tobacco was a
particularly weak stock, ana fell from
78 to "i on reports that an anti-trust
bill will be Introduced in the Virginia
legislature. Sugar first advanced from
102 to 104, but later returned to 102a
103 In sympathy with the break in To
bacco. Leather preferred fell 1 to BVfc,
Rubber Te to 26,. and General Electric
1 to 25a26. The weakness of the last
named was due to semi-official denials
of the recent eport of a working ar
rangement with the Westinghouse peo
ple. Railway stocks were lower, but
the decline In no case exceeded a point.
Manhattan was stronger than for a
long time past, and on covering of short
contracts rose to 102i. The market
closed barely steady In tone. Net
changes show declines of Vial per cent,
out side of Manhattan, which gained
per cent. The Industrials, with the
exception of Sugar, lost a2Vi per cent.
Sugar gained 9 per cent.

Tho Report of Major-tieneral Suowden.
Ills Kemarks t'pon Encampments.
Ilarrlsburg, Pa., Jan. 23. The report
of Major General Snowden for the year
just closed Is an Interesting contribu
tion to National Guard history. Speak
ing of the encampment, he says:
"Yearly practice In assembling the
troops has produced a large degree of
knowledge, and consequently of facility
in movement, and repeated purchase
and Issue of supplies have promoted
o skill and r-nllnc-. In nieetl"g the
necessary wants of troops not sur
puHseu in uny organization. oemer
regular or volunteer."
He commends the changes In the
methods of Inspection. Much valuable
time Is saved and officers and men are
fresher for their field movements, and
naturally acquit themselves with more
credit. He again endorses the three
battalion formation and suggests that
an act of congress may complete Its
adoption. He thinks a trial of the sys
tem might be made In the First brigade
with beneficial results.
tSeneral Snowden says: "It Is a mat
ter of great importance to the efficiency
of the division that the mounted troops
be Increased In the number of compa
nies! and formed into battalions, ito
well recognized authority or sound rea
son can be found fur attaching a troop
of cavalry or a battery of artillery to a
brigade."
He does not approve of the Btrlct
rules regarding rifle practice. He siiys:
"To Insist on a certain, or at least a
large percentage of the company at
taining any prescribed qualification at
the risk of disbandonment leads to
temptation to secure the rating pre
scribed at any cost."
TO SAVE THE COUNTRY.
Tho Old Morgan Bond Syndicate to bo
Reorganized.
New York, Jan. 23. A rumor, which
was generally credited, was current to
day that certain members of the old
Morgan bond syndicate had re-formed
on different lines. It wus said that the
new combination will bid for a block of
from thirty to forty millions of the
bonds at a stated figure, and that each
Individual member will ulso put in a
separate bid at figures to be deter
mined upon by themselves.
This would furnish bids for $80,000,000
alone. Leading bank ofllclals say they
are sutlslied that the bond call will not
! bo a success as a popular loan, but at
i the same time the whole Issue will be
I subscribed for. They estimate that the
I bids from the public will not exceed
1 twenty millions.
