Washington, June 19. John 8. Shrl
ver, the correspondent of the New
York Mall and Ifixpreu, yeaterdcy was
declared not guilty of contempt In re
fusing to answer questions of the sen
ate committee In relation to the sugar
trust Investigation. 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. The ground was
that Edwards never had been legally
summoned. District Attorney Davis
gave notice that he would call up the
oases of Brokers Macartney and Sey

nesses, on Monday.

SERIOUS FATALITY IN ILLINOIS I
Tornado strikes the Farm of the State
Institution For Feeble Minded, and
Four Persons Are Killed and
Several Injured, Two
Probably Fatally.
Lincoln, Ilia., June 19. A tornado
which naaced over the central and
southern portions of Logan county yes
terday afternoon destroyed thousands
of dollars' worth of property and de
molished an immense barn on the farm
of the State Institution for the Feeble
Mlnneu. Twenty-six persons seeking
refuge from the storm were hurled in
the debris. Four of the refugees, boy
pupils from Chicago, were taken out
dead. Five others were severely In
jured, one of whom, the farm super
intendent, will probably die. The dead
are: Sylvester Baker, James O'Hrlen,
O'Neill MacTCensIe and Castle Lebaron.
Injured: Jacob Wilmot, farm superin
tendent, will probably die; Lemuel
Oleason, attendant, serious internal In
juries, may die; Henry Horger, William
Wlthem and William Fisher.
At 3:45 the tornado was seen ap
proaching the city from the south
west. The State Institution for the
Fettle Minded, containing over 700 in
mates, seemed to be directly in the
path of the storm, and stringent meas
ures were quickly taken to prevent a
panic. The roofs of several buildings
weie enrried away, and much damage
was done about the grounds, but tl.e
700 inmates were under perfect con
trol of the attendants, and the threat
ened panic and great loss of life was
averted. The tornado passed on to the
northwest, touching next on the farm
and stock barns connected with the
asylum, threo miles distant. In the
cow barn were huddled 26 persons. In
cluding the superintendent of the farm,
Jacob Wilmot, 21 pupils and an at
tendant. The barn was wrenched from
Its foundations and torn to pieces.
Four of the pupils were InBtnntly
killed. The others, with the exception
of the superintendent, escaped serious
Injury and were shortly rescued from
tho debris.
The tornado passed on to the north
east, doing great damage, the extent of
which Is as yet unkno'wn. The storm
divided Into two sections, tnd covered
a wide territory. It Is feared that the
loss of Hfo will be greatly enlarged
when reports are received from out
