John John Murray's sore finger msy have saved him a term In the penitentiary. He was in county jail, charged with grand larceny, his accuser being a traveling man who stopped at the Arcade hotel, whero Murray had been working. Several days ago he caught his hand in the door of one of the cells and mashed the first finger. Physicians declared lie ought to be where the finger could be treated In order - to prevent blcod poisoning.

' ' ' ' - ' ' ' '' WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-The house to day, tiy unanimous vote, auopied a resolu tion rtu.ueating tne president lu uppiy H with any evidence mat may be in i.is pOHseasion tnai wul justify tne statement in his lust annuai mufisaso in leltuluii lu the aliunde ut meinoeia oi congress tuwuid apprupuauone fur tne government seciet service. , Mr. Perkins, chairman of the special com mittee to invesuaaie tne Ciiargea indue in tne piesiueiit's uiSnMge, and Juliii dnaip Williams both state on tne floor tnat u was the desire to be just towaru tne presi dent in allowing h.m to submit, any evi dence lie may have. Mr. Perkins said the committee would continue in session dut-lns tnu Jlir.atmia hohuays so tnat it mig'iit receive and con sider such evidence from the piesidenL Mr. lien lie tt New, Vo;k . uemanoed a division on the preamble provision slating the committee's Interpretation of the presi dent's tiie.bu'ae to cont ess, but before tne division was entered on enueaoieu to with draw his motion.

It would be far better to do this than to do what actually was done and strive to pi event, tr at least hamper, ef fective action against .criminals by the ex ecutive branch of the government;" and. Whereas, The plain .meaning of the words Is that the majority ot the congress men were in fear of being investigated by secret service men and that congress as a whole was actuated by that motive In en acting the provision In question; and, Whereas, Your committee appointed to consider these statements of the president and to report to the house cannot find In the hearings before committees nor in the records of the house-or senate any Justi fication of this impeachment of the honor and integrity of the congress; and, Whereas, Your committee would prefer In order to make an Intelligent and com prehensive report,) Just to the president, as well as to congress, to haye all the in formation which the president may have to communicate; .therefore, be It Resolved, that the president be requested to transmit to the house 'any evidence upon which he based his statement that the "chief argument in favor of the provision wss that the congressmen did not them selves wish to be themselves investigated by secret service anen,'' and also to trans mit to the house any -evidence connecting any member of the house' ot representatives of the sixtieth congress with corrupt ac tion in his, official capacity and to Inform the house whether ''"r ba InBt'tuted,, pro,, oeedlngs for the1 punishment of any Indi vidual by the courts or has reported' any such alleged delwnuenclee to the house of representatives. In reporting' the 'resolution, Mr. Perkins said It had been recommended unanimously, by the special committee and said that as soon as the president should send In any information in his possession the commit tee -would make another report for the consideration of the house. Speech of Mr. WIIHante. Mr. Williams said the committee would Impartially report !' upon "this seemingly and unjustified attack upon the honesty and reputation of the legislative branch of the government." . "Bo far as the committee knows," said Mr. Williams, "there is not a scintilla of evidence to support' that tsatement by the president. The committee has thought U would be fair to the president to give 'him further opportunity to produce testimony It he has any. The American people have a right to know If -the American congress be corrupt." r Such a procedure, he continued, would allow the country Which, he said, "was the master of both of us," to exercise Judg ment in the matter. The special commit tee, be said, would remain in session, "ready to receive,, to consider, and to weigh whatsoever competent evidence the president can furnish with a resolute Jus tice and Impartiality." Mr. Perkins said . the committee was actuated by a desire to be entirely Just to the president and he added that It had brought In the resolution with that pur pose In view. Mr. Kelfer of Ohio wanted to know whether the words, "If not incompatible with the public service," should not be In serted In the resolution as is usual in call ing out the president for Information. This suggestion called forth laughter -and Mr. Perkins declared that the resolution, as worded, was "a request for Information, and was imperative in Its wording." Mr. Perkins then cut off discussion' by demanding the previous question, and Speaker Cannon called for a viva voce vote. There was a chorus of "ayes" favoring the passage of the resolution, followed by a dead silence when the noes were called tor.

By an order of the supreme court signed today four members of the supreme court commission left after the selection of new Judges by Governor Sheldon, will remain In office until April 10, 1909. This is the date when their tenure of office expiree under their appointment. The appropriation of the last legislature runs until this time. In view of the amount of back work confronting the court and In order to clear up the docket so the aevoji Judges may take charge with best results, the court decided to retain the commis sioners. The four who are retained are E. R. Dufflo of Omaha, E. C. Caiklns of Kearney, E. E. Good of Wah oo and A. C. Epperson of Clay. When the constitutional amendment en larging the supreme court to seven mem bers was passed, there was some question whether the commissioners would be re tained. Members of the bar In Omaha and other p:uces took action favorable to their retention unll their terms expired, and ths Judges decided this plan advisable. Delay for Shamvtay. R. Meade Shumway,- sentenced to be hanged Jsnuary 8 for the murder of Mrs. Martin, today secured a delay, the supreme court fixing January 29 as the date for the execution of the sentence. The court re quires further time for examination of the transcript, because of the reorganisation end the inability of the new Judges to do the work In the time at first fixed ' The case of F. W. Fitch against Euclid Martin, administrator of the estate of Robert Majors, was reversed by the court. A(ter numerous trials and several aux iliary proceedings Mr. Fitch secured Judg ment against the estate for $1, 426.92 for legal ' services. Neither side was satis fled and both appealed. It was In this case that Attorney Fitch was cited on a contempt charge. He once , secured Judg ment for several times the amount secured in the last trial. D. J. O'Brien & Co. secured an affirma tion of their judgment aga nst the Omaha Water Works company for damages result ing from the flooding of their cellar through the neglect of the defendant. R. J. Greene Released. Robert J. Greene, art attorney of Lincoln, who was convicted In the lower court of having extorted 1160 from a saloon keeper, won out in the supremo court and the case against him was ordered dismissed. The court held that the section of the statute under which he was convicted Is unconsti tutional. The opinion Was written by Com missioner Calkins. In his syllabus he said: . Section 3 of the act of March 30, 1901, contravenes section 15 of article ill of the constitution of the state of Nebraska, which forbids special legislation; as well as sec tion 1 of the fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United Slates, which forbids a state to deny to any person within its Jurisdiction the eequal protection of the laws, in that the acts thereby pro hibited are made criminal only when com mitted against citizens or residents of the siate of Nebraska, The rule that a court will not listen to an objection to the constitutionality of law by a party whose right it does not affect. Is an inapplicable one to a case where the vice of the law consists In an un warranted discrimination between the Indi viduals against whom the agreeslon thereby forbidden is committed. - Complaint as' filed, against Billlngaley and . Greene allege- charging .them with having, tor a consideration withdrawn pro tests against the granting ol liquor licenses. Greene asked lur a separate trial, which was granted. He was convicted and fined $200. Corporations nnd Llqnor License. The supreme court has upheld the d strict court and the city council of Hastings which granted a liquor license to the Hast ings Brewing company. Two objections were made to the grant ing of the license by the rcmonstrators that the mayor had cast the deciding vote In tha council which gave the license and that a corporation could not secure a license to sell liquor. The supreme court" held the mayor of a city of the first class may cast a -deciding vote In the case of a tie over the "matter of a liquor license and also that a corpora tion may secure a liquor license to do a wholesale business. The court held that a corporation, however, had no authority to sell liquor at retail. The city council at Hastings voted four to four on the license question. The mayor then cast the deciding vote In favor of the license. The district court affirmed the decision of the council. - Brown Gets the Sent. Charles O. Whedon, who contested the nomination of E. P. Brown for state sen ator In Lancaster county, lost out in the supreme court and Mr. Brown, who was elected, will serve. The two were rival candidates at the republican prlmailes last September and Brown received a majority of six votes. He took the matter to the d.Btrict court, which held against Whedon and that It had no Jurisdiction In the mat ter. The opinion of the supreme court af firms that of the district court. Judge Root, who wrote the decision of the su preme court, said In his syllabus: The district courts are without powei1 to consider and determine an original action Ins.ltuted for the purpose of contesting the nomination of a legisiativo candidate at the primary election. New Halloa" on Street Railways. The supreme court today, in the case of Stewart against the Omaha & Council Bluffs Railway company, says that a pe destrian need not exercise the same care in crossing the tracks of a street railway as when crossing the tracks of a steam rail road. The court states that this distinc tion is at variance with decisions In other states, but Insists that the distinction should be made and the question of con trlbutsry negligence arising should be passed upon by a Jury. E. E. Thomas Tnrned Down. . Efforts of Elmer E. Thomas of Omaha to dominate the meeting of the board of trustees of the Anti-Saloon league held yesterday proved unavailing and the man who wrote the letter In the last campaign betraying his co-workers into the hand of the opposition was given a dee'dedly chilly recept on. Rer. J. B. Cirnes was re-elocted atste superintendent In spite of the bitter fight put up by Thomas, who accused him of "republicanism" and "general ineffi ciency." The league decided to remain strictly nonpartisan hereafter.
