Mr. Slirlver was the fourth of the alleged recalcitrant witnesses, Messrs. llavemeyer and Bearlea, president and secretary of the American Sugar Heflnlng company, both having been dleclmred, while Uroker Hlverton Chaomnn Was con victed and rerved one month In Jail. Judge Bradley based his decision In the 8 h river case on two points: First, that the witness had not been legally summoned, and second, that the ques tion askefl him was not pertinent. The contention of the defense that com munications to newspaper men are privileged as a class, the same aB are communications to priests, lawyers and physicians, the court refused to sus tain, but as the court did on the other hand hold that to ask the witness the name of his Informant was not a perti nent question, the counsel for the de fense now hold that a precedent la es tablished which virtually brings news paper witnesses within the privileged class. The Jury, also under orders from the court, brought In a verdict of not guilty in the case of E. J. Edwards, New York correspondent of the Phila delphia Press, on trial on the same charge as Shrlver.
