Referring to the presidential question he said he had nothing to communicate, but remarked that Taft was a "big" man. "As to your question with reference to governmentovraershlp of railroads," said the speaker, ''the best possible answer I can give to that question is to say that if the people of the district which I represent in congress wants government ownership of railroads they will have to send some one else to Washington to vote their preference in that direction."

Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind Witness at San Francisco Refuses to Testify, and He Is a Vital One. JUDGE SENDS HIM OFF TO JAIL There He Will Stay Until the Trial Is Ended, Perhaps. Kfusal to Answer May Make It Iraossible to Convict Gla in tho City Graf Cases. San Brancisco, July 1C. The first serious blow to the bribery-graft pros ecution was struck by the Louis Ghut defense in open court, through Emil J. Zimmcr, second vice president and director of the Pacific States Telephone company, who first refused to b sworn; afterward accepted the oath and took the stand, answered two or three unimportant questions put by Assistant District Attorney lleney, then refused to testify further. He was by Judge Lawler committed for contempt to the county jail for a "term of five days, and until the question is answered." Under the law as interpreted by the court this means that Zimmer must stay In jail throughout the progress of the Glass trial, or until he signifies his willingness to testify. State Banked on Zimmer. On Zimmer the prosecution relied as Its most important witness against Vice President Glass, accused, of bribery. At the time this crime is alleged to have been committed, March of 190G, Louis Glass was acting president and general manager of the Pacific States company, owing to the death of President John I. Sabin. Before the grand jury Zimmer testified that Glass drew checks for the bribery money alleged to have been paid to the supervisors, caused Zimmer to cash them, and then instructed, him to give the money to Agent Ilalsey and require from Ilalsey no voucher, merely carrying these thousands of dollars on the current expense account. Meant No Disrespect to the Court. The proceedings in court were as follows: "The witness will be sworn. Then we will determine his attitude," ruled Judge Lawlor. Clerk Welch administered the oath to Zimmer and he took the stand. Zimmer refused, however, to testify, though he declared that in so doing he meant no disrespect to the court Judge Lawlor said: "You are guilty of contempt In the presence of the couxt and are subject to summary punishment. Read the question before the court, Mr. Report er." tie Pleaded Self-Protection. "How long have you been bo cmployed by the corporation?" the ste nographer read. "I Btill refuse to an swer." said Zimmer. Judge Lawlor requested tbe reporter to read the preceding question and when Zimmer had reylled: "Meaning no disrespect to the court, I still refuse to testify," Zimmer said he took this position to protect himself. Not Incriminating Questions. "Do you claim that your answer to the question now asked you would sub ject you to prosecution on a felony charge?" asked the court. "No, sir, I do not" "Do tou claim that you would de grade your character?" "No, sir, I do not" "The court instructs you,"said Judge Lawlor, "that the question now before the cout Is a legal and pertinent one, and one which you are required to an gwer. and your refusal to answer will constitute contempt of court.
