THE LAKE COUNTY TIMES

AS VIEWED BY BRYAN

Nebraskan Makes a Few Remarks on Recent Railway Men's Utterances.

ALSO ABOUT THAT CONFERENCE

Takes a "Wt? c'r at the Republicans ' Sort cf Incidentally.

That "Which Is Most Interesting Ilim Is What Is Giving the Railway Magnate Most Pain.

Buffalo, X. Y., March 14. The Times prints tho following: "William J. Bryan spent an hour here, en route from Beaver, Pa., to llinghamton. lie was met by National Committeeman Norman E. Mack, Avho remained with, him until his departure for Blnghaniton. A Times reporter asked Bryan: "What is your opinion of the proposed conference between President Roosevelt and the railroad presidents?" Contradicts Roosevelt's Theory. Bryan replied: "The Republican leaders object to the doctrine: 'With the consent of the governed' in the Philippines, but some of them seem to think nothing can be done in the regulation of railroads without the consent of the railroad magnates. The important part of that announcement, however, is that the railroad managers want the supervision of the railroads transferred to the federal government that they may avoid state legislation, and this contradicts the president's theory that thoeorporations favor state rights as a means of avoiding federal control. The great corporations would much rather risk control by congress, which Is far away from tho people, than by state legislatures which are close to the people." Not Due to Hostile Legislation.

Binghamton, N. Y., March 14. A representative of the Associated Press asked William .7. Bryan, on his arrival here to fill a lecture engagement, what effect the Ilarriman and other investigations would have on the agitation in favor of governmentownership or management of railroads. He replied: "The most Interesting phase of the situation just now is the refusal of the people to lend money freely to the railroads." The railroad managers say that this Is due to hostile legislation, but this is a mistake. There has been no hostile legislation of sufficient severity to impair the real value of railroad securities, where the railroads have been honestly conducted upon an honest capitalization. Why They Will Not InTest. "If the investing public is alarmed it is because the railroad managers In a vain effort to terrorize the legislatures have carried matters too far. If any other answer is needed for the hesitancy on the part of investors the Investigations furnish it, for th inquiries have shown to what extent railroad stocks have been watered. But what is the alternative? Must the government refuse to investigate rotten management for fear the mismanaged railroad no longer will be able to fool the public into buying inflated securities? The sooner the railroads are put on an honest basis the more secure will the Investing public feel."

BOUND TO RA1S1 THE RATES

Most Oet More for Their Service, or Rust, Says Hill. St. Paul. March 14. "I want to go on record here that your rates will be ndxuuced In the northwest In place of being reduced. They will be advanced simply because It is necessary to provide the service. This course will begin In the east. Now, I am not complaining about rates, but present conditions would bankrupt some of the roads in this state." This declaration was made by President Hill, of the (Jreat Northern before the Sundberg senate committee. Hill said that today Great Northern rates applied to Union Pacific rates would mean a reduction In the "Union Faeific 'Income of over $f.000,000, and in the case of the Northwestern of nearly that amount.

San Francisco, March 14. After tho names of four talesmen had been drawn from the jury box the trial of Abraham Kuef on the grand jury charge of extorting money from French restaurant keepers was continued in Julge Dunne's court until Monday morning. Counsel for Ituef objected to the drawing of any further names during the absence from the jury of Juryman Drumbrell, who had been temporarily excused, and Judge Dunne thought It well as an adjournment for at laast one day was Insisted on to take a recess until the state supreme court renders its decision on Ruefs application for release upon habeas corpus. Attempts to Retire Judge Dunne. The feature of the day's session, aside from the fact that the actual trial of the indicted boss was begun by the calling of talesmen, was the determined and spirited attempt of Kuef 'a lawyers to induce Judge Dunne to confess himself biased and prejudiced against the defendant, and to grant a change of trial judges. This attempt, opposed by Heney, failed at every point In contravention of affidavits of bias and prejudice filed by the defense the prosecution filed affidavits of denial, among them one by Judge Dunne himself, and another by Heney, and it was by objecting to the weighing of these charges and countercharges by Judge Dunne himself that the lawyers for the defence opened its

battle for his retirement from the

bench. ' ' ' v ;? f

Defense "Wrong on the Law. They contended that under a pro

vision of the civil code a trial judge

is not a proper person to pass upon the ultimate question of fact raised,

but should call in the judge of anoth

er court and to him submit the decision as to whether he is or is not possessed of bias against the defendant. The prosecution quoted the civil codo

as bestowing upon Judge Dunne the very power disputed by the defense, and bestowing it upon him as trial

judge exclusively. After more than

an hour had been spent in a debate that was lively throughout, and at

times decidedly acriminous, Judge

Dunne ruled against the motion for a change of venue and ordered the case to proceed. Two Discredit! Officials. Just before court was adjourned Heney asked that the disqualification ot the sheriff and coroner and the continuance of the elisor be ordered, and that Ruef be remanded to the custody of the elisor for so long as the trial shall last. This motion was bitterly attacked by Attorney Ach, but Judge btmne said he had no confidence in either sheriff or coroner as fit persona to have the custody of the prisoner, and brought the discussion to a close by making the order Heney had asked for. Ruef "Will Be "Well "Watched. This means that Ruef, unless freed by a higher court, must remain a closely watched and carefully guarded prisoner in the hands of Biggy, Detective Burns and their deputies for at least three weeks, Heney having intimated that it will take that long to try the case. The case of Mayor Schmitz was set for April 12.
