Al.iuN V, Juno 8. Jiullco Chostcr of tho Su

ders rrqulrlng tho Attornoy-OenorM to show
route why tho oilglnal order on which ho began
pro, codings under tho antl-monttor Inn
against tho Presidents of tho four lending coal
rallrouls In tho East should not bo vacated.
Under this original order Wnltor K. Want ot
Alluny wns appointed rcfereo to conduct an In
quiry to nicortaln If n coal monster was operat
ing "in this Stnto, In order that tho Attornoy
Central might dotormlno whether such
a monstor existed, nnd. If possible to
ccure pvldonco on which to bnso nn no
tion ngnlust nny comhlnntlon In restraint
of trmlc which might bo found. Thcso
four orders with argument to-day worn
obtained by Prosldcnt ltobcrt M. Olyphant ot
thellclnwaro nnd Hudson Railroad, President
I Thomas C. Fowler of tho Now York, Ontnrlo
and Western llallroad, Prosldcnt J. Ilodgcr
Maxwell ot tho Jersoy Central, and President
Samuel Sloan ot tho Dotawaro, Lackawanna
and Western. At tho hearing to-day Lowls E.
Cjrr of Albany and David Wilcox of Now
York reproscntcil President Olyphant, John
H. Kerr appeared for President Fowler,
David McCluro of Mow York for PreBldont
I elo.in, nnd ltobcrt W. Deforest for President
I Maxwell. For tho Stato nppcared Attornoy
' General Hancock nnd Deputy Attornoy-Ocnoral
Puis. Newton Flcro of Albany was apodal
counsel to the Attorncy-Cloneral, making tho
principal argument for tho Stnto.
Too samo questions nrlso under all four orders
to show causo. It was contended that the origi
nal order nppolntlng a rcforco should bo vacated
mil tot asldo as unauthorized by law and also
Irregular.
. Mr. Kioto In arguing for tho Attornoy-Gonoral
said:
"It will bo noticed that tho provisions of tho
set under which theso proceedings aro brought
are exceedingly broad and very gcnoral In thutr
irope. It Is only required that tho Attorney
General may. w hero ho deems lt proper to procuro
testimony beforo beginning an action, present to
a Justice of the Supremo Court an order direct
ing witnesses to nppoar to bo examined concern
is: the matters set out In the statute. No formal
ity Is contemplated by way of cither affidavit or
petition. A more application in writing, without
letting out any facta whntevcr, would onttroly
satisfy tho provisions of tho statute and in that
reject the potltlon of tho Attorney-General, ob
jected to on tho part of the witnesses sought to
J be examined, la much mora full and complete
1 than Is requlrod under tho practice provided for
by tie set, and an examination of tho law is a
full answer to most, if not all, of the objections
tailed on tho part ot tho witnesses, slnco it is
within tho discretion of tho Justlco to require
these vi ttnesscs to appear and answer upon such
indication in wrltlnsr."
Mr. Flcro then discussed tho objections raised
Bto the granting of tho order appointing Hcfereo
'tovd. and s,atd: "The two anti-trust laws must
be considered, construod, and enforced togcthor.
An action brought.undcr ono naturally Includes
a procedure under rhc provisions of both, Tho
objection that tho Attm-noy-Oonoral's petition
fails to set forth a stato of facts within tho pro
visions of the statutes and fails to set forth an In
tention to bring an action or proceeding under
the statutes. Is not tcnablo, Blnco tho Attornoy
General Is not, upon any reasonable construction
of Ihe act. obliged to state that ho proposes to or
may bring nn action or proceeding. Tho wholo
tcopo ot the statute Is Intended to give tho Stato
an opportunity to investigate matters relative
tolllcgnl contracts or combinations, without in
my wise committing itself to any action or pro
ceeding with refcronco thereto, unless suf
ficient ovidenco can bo ob tuned upon which on
action may bo based."
Sir. Fiero said that tho Attorney-General
could base his application on information and
belief only, since he had no detinito facts on
which to take proceedings. The object of tho
proceeding was to obtain facts which would
govern his futuro action.
David Wilcox made the opening argument for
the railroads.
" In declaring the acts described by tho statute
to be illegal and void the Legislature exceeded
Its constitutional powers," ho said. " Especially
is this so whero contracts made outsldo tho
Stats are declared illegal. The provisions of the
statute upon tho subject of procedure are also
unconstitutional. Tho Attorney-General's pro
cedure in this matter has been wholly insutn
dent and falls to show any state of facts within
the statute. The proceedings In this case do not
I conform to the statute, and the statute is uncun
ttltulionaj, both as regards the procedure which
it prescribes and as regards Its substantive pro
visions which seek to destroy the rights of
liberty and property which havo existed tor cen
turies, as well as the constitutional riirht of free
dom of contract. Tho order for an examination
ot witnesses should therefore bo vacated."
Lewis E. Carr, attornoy for President Olyphant
of the Delaware and Hudson, said that tho order
for the appearance and examination of the per
sona named should bo vacated, because the peti
tion on which It was granted was and Is Insuffi
cient to Justify the order made. He said:
"The right to enter upon and conduct an in
vestigation Inquisitorial In its character Is so
contrary to our notions of personal security, and
It attended with such possible dangers. It Bhould
only be exercised in a clear case, and then undor
soluble restrictions. The private affairs of the
dtiien are sheltered from inquiry by tho Consti
tution, and such procedure as may, not must, re
sult In the Invasion ot that right of privacy
should be condemned.
"It Is evident from tho act Itself the Legisla
ture Intended to guard so far as it could against
abuse of this power, becauso provisions of tho
Code adopted for tho governance of examina
tions in actions actually pending or content
Mated were in terms niado applicable to this
Procedure, The Code provisions aro not com
tlled with in tho application under considera
tion In many particulars. This proceeding Is
purely statutory, and tho applicant must furnish
the statement of facts showing he is entitled to
I tie order. Tho allegation as to a combination

bollof."
, Mr. Carr attaoked the constitutionality ot the
law. He said:
"That portion of the act of 1607 which an
thorites an Investigation under the order ot a
Supremo Court Justlco In ndvanco ot any action
pending or about to be commenced cannot bo
sustained aa a valid oxorclao of legislative
power. It offends tho Constitution In thrco re
spects: Tlrst In Imposing on tho judiciary
duties not Judicial In their character. Becond
In depriving tho citizen ot his constitutional
right to remain silent when speoch may tend to
convict ot crime without affording him the ab
soluto Immunity he Is entltlod to. Third In
making certain provisions of law applicable
without embodying the law, but leaving It as a
matter of discretion to the applicant for an
order.
"lt Is plain a witness under tho provisions of
section 7 Is deprived of tho right to decline to
answer on the ground that to answer may tend
to convict him ot a crime. That Is the express
statement In tho law. Tho right to remain silent
whon nnd whoro speech may tend to criminality
Is constitutional. To make such legislation valid
lt Is needful that tho act taking away the tight
of silence should giro absolute Immunity from
the consequences of speech.
"Tho prosecuting oftlcer alone knows what
evidence he has against one charged with crime.
If a witnoss Is examined under this statuto nnd
is subsequently crlmlnnlly prosecuted, bowis he
to establish that tho prosecution was not one of
the results of his oxnmlnatton I Such examina
tion may furnish tho prosocutlng officer with
tho means ot conviction, may open the door to
information not otherwise obtainable, and so
may as Btircly convict tho witnoss ns would lta
actual uso on tbo trial. Yet, In such case, lt
could not be said ho was prosecuted on account
of his testimony. Such a cato is not only possi
ble, but probable, nnd therefore tho protection
of n witness is a delusion and snare.
"Nothing prevents the commencement ot a
crlnilnnlpros ecu tionbeforosuch an examination.
Tho Immunity from prosocution is that of the
future, not from one pending whon tho examina
tion is had. So lt may easily be the cato that a
criminal proceeding may be commenced, fol
lowed by an examination ot tho defendant. In
which he 1b entltlod to no protection, in which
may bo drawn from him details which so arm
the prosecution that conviction follows. That,
surely. Is not protection.
"The law provides for two classes of prosecu
tions, ono criminal, tho other civil. It Is In con
nection with tho civil prosecution this examina
tion is to bo had, and that is to be conducted by
tho Attomer-Goncrnl. Tbo criminal prosecution
is presumably to bo In chargo of the ordinary
prosocutlng otllcor. Is It at nil dltllcult for tho
prosecuting olllcer to demonstrate that tho pro
ceeding ho begins and prosecutes was not on ac
count of tho testimony takon at tbo Instnnco of
tho Attornoy-Gonoral in tho civil matter I
Since these things are possible this- part ot the
law is at war with ono of tho most sacred con
stitutional rights of tho citiion and should ro
celvo condemnation.
"It Is clear this act makes a part of the Code
of Civil Procedure applicable, without ro-onact-lng
It nnd thnt Is nt variance with section 17 ot
Artlclo III. of tho Constitution, section 1, Act of
18U7.
" It is said, however, such reference to general
laws may be made nnd sustained. The dllilculty
with this law is lt does not make tho part ot tho
codo mentioned applicable! and stop there. It
adds, 'so far ns practicable.' Who is to deter
mine that question I The Attorney-General has
dono so in the application. Can it be tolerated
that ho has the power of determining whnt
method shall bo pursued t Is lt the Justice of
tho Supremo Court I If so. the present applica
tion is fatally defective"
Mr. McCluro followed tho lines ot argument
laid down by tho other counsol fortho witnesses.
Ho laid special stress upon tho unconstitution
ality of the laws, especially tho power conferred
upon the referee to punish a witness for. con
tempt when he avails hlmsolt ot a constitutional
right In refusing to answer questions which
might lean to a criminal prosecution, eltncr on
bis own direct testimony or on tho testimony
of persons which tho testimony of the
witnesses might show had n Knowledge
of the acts complained of. ne contended
thnt courts nlono had tho constitutional
right to punish for contempt. Ho paid
his respects to Senator Clarenco E. Lcxow.
who Introduced the anti-monster bills, and
said that measures pressed by people anxious
for public notoriety should not be considered
apart from tho circumstances which prompted
the placing of such laws upon the statuto books.
There was no reason, ho said, why President
Sloan should be compelled to conic to Albany.
He had given his testimony on this question bo
fore tho Lexow committee.
" Yes." said Mr. Flcro. " but ho did not tell oil
ho know."
" Ho did," retorted Mr. McClure, " and his
veracity cannot be questioned."
Attorney-General Hancock spoko briefly In
favor of his procedure under tho law. He had
acted as tho Legislature Intended. This State
certainly had a right to prevent any combina
tion formed in another Stato from operating In
Now York. Tho powers conferred upon tho ref
eree to exnmlno witnesses was not unusual.
Mr. De Forest spoke briefly in behalf of Presi
dent Maxwell of tho Jersey Contra), and sub
mitted a brief upon the questions at Issue. The
arguments of counsel continued from 10 o'clock
until 1, nnd after lunch from '2:30 until 8 o'clock.
At their conclusion Justice Chester reserved his
decision. Ho stated ho had much business on
hand, but would endeavor to reach a decision as
scon as possible.
No matter what tho decision may be, one side
or the other will appeal to tho highest court to
pass upon the questions Involved regarding tho
procedure under tho two laws and to determine
their constitutionality.

SXLra Lillian Drook Wins the Ardsley Cham
pionship Cnp.
A heavy, soaking rainfall marred the scoring
In the match for the women's championship of
the home links at the Ardsley Club yesterday,
and tho disagreeable weather bad also a bad
effect upon tho number of starters. Yet Ave
finished. In bravo deflanco of tho deluge, the
prlzo going to Miss Lillian Brooks. It is a con
test that Is to bo bold semi-annually until tho
cup Is won twice by ono porson. It was Intended
to play nine holes In the morning and tho sec
ond half of tho match after luncheon, but the
early start was deferred until tho afternoon In
tho nope that tho sun might assert Itself. Then,
as tho deluge was still dominant, It was decided
toplay tho eighteen boles.
The contestants showed ns they gathered
about the first too, ready for the start, a cheer
fulness thnt bid defiance to tbo storm. Old soft
hats or rough Tain o' Shanters surmounted the
dainty tresses; thick knitted sweater covered
the red golfing blouses, and tho short tweed
Bklrts revealed thick, nail-studded golfing boots.
Impervious to tho water. In this attlro a wet
ting could do no bsnn, yet tbo garments would
not hinder tho swing In driving nor cramp the
arms on the approach shots, dual necessities
that compelled the banishment of mackintoshes
us too heavy and cumbersome.

had been specially rolled and cut for tho match.
Throughout tbo links tbo moisture mado tho
turf very slippery, the Insecure footing being
responsible for many short shots nnd topped
iron plays. The weather was a handicap ot
many strokes on the skill of each player. John

nnd St. Ilartholomevv Itnn a Dead Heat.
Three thousand porsons brnvod tho atrocious
weather yesterday anil shivered In tho grand
stand at Qrnvcsond while six racos were being
run. Tho storm oamo out of tho northeast, but
tho wind carried tho rain in every direction, and
there nppoarod to bo no dodging tho molsturo.
Thoro wore two stakes on tba card, tho l'rcak
noes ot $3,000 for throo-yoar-olds, which wns
won by T. P. Hayes's Paul Kaitvnr, by Plralo of
Penzance, and tho Clovor, for two-year-old fllllcs,
which wont to William Astor Chantor's Fnyldn,
by Owas, tho half-brother to Iroquois. Iloth
stakes were well contested, but tho closing rnco
ot tho day was tho best on tbo progTnmiuo, tho
thrce-yonr-olds Wolhurst and Ht. llartholomow
running a doad boat. Wolhurst wns sold beforo
tho race to Charles Flelsuhmann & Son of Cin
cinnati by L. 8. & W. P. Thompson for $3,000.
Young Mr. Chanter, the owner of Fnyicln, has
something of a reputation ns nn African ex
plorer, and is ono of tho most popular young
men In New York.
Buddha's well-known aversion to a heavy
track caused his withdrawal from tho entry list
for the Prenknoss Stakes, and before tho horses
went to tho post Challongor, L. 1)., Sunny
Slope, Hide, loch Nets, and Aruro woro
scratched, leaving a field of eight, inoluding tho
Sensation Stablo's Chum, to fnce tho starter. On
Deck closod a slight favorite over Rcnssolacr
and tho maiden Elklns. whoso prlco was knocked
down several points by vory heavy play. Paul
Kauvar was tho most fancied ot tho others,
chiefly becauso of his good showing In tho mud
on Saturday last. Rotterdam went lamo In the
paddock and had to bo withdrawn. Caldron at 10
to 1 was as good as loft at tho post when tho
start wns made, tho colt leaped Into tho air as
though grocn and afraid of tbo barrlor. Rensse
laer was last of the others. Elkinn sot out to
make a runaway race of lt nnd quickly oponcd
up a gap of throo lengths on his competitors.
Sloano mado a vory wide turn bolow tbo paddock
with the favorlto and lost sovernl lengths of valu
ablo ground. Doggett cut through on tho rail
and rande up several lengths. In tho run up tho
backstretch Frco Lanco and Pnul Kauvar wero
second and third respectively, but when the
half-mile post was passed it looked as though
Elklns would not bo caught. Around tho
upper turn Thorpo sot down on Pnul Kauvar,
and, riding with whip and spur, got tho Ken
tucky threo-ycar-old within a length of Elklns.
On Deck closed, too, and It was a drive through
the stretch. Tho stake was Paul Kauvar's at
the sixteenth polo. Thorpo landing tho grandson
of Prineo Chnrllo llrst by a length. On Deck and
Elklns had a whipping finish for second money,
the last-named getting lt by a nose. Dog
gett dM not pcrsovero with licnssclacr
when he found tho colt could not be
first, second, or third. It was too much weight
to glvo away to colts of tho class of thoso placed
by the Judges. Caldron caught up with his field
nnd ran n very creditable race Tommy Pow era
was fined '-!3 for " pulling up Caldron st hen tho
hell rang. Elklns will do better the next timo
he runs, lie wus a smart two-year-old in his
oarly trials In 1800, but went wrong, nnd never
faced tbo starter until yesterday, Paul Kauvar
was n frequent winner Inst year for T. P. Hayes
nnd wns probably tho best two-year-old at tbo
Milwaukee summer meeting. In ono of tho
breaks at the post On Deck stumbled nnd threw
Sloano. Tho jockey wns unhurt end remounted
the colt, which bad been caught by a stable boy.
Miss ltowcna and Judn were about equal fa
vorites for the Clover Stakes, the former closing
nt II to b. Tho outsider was Fayldn, a shapely
lllly by Owas out of Cuyama. Fayida was al
ways In the front rank, and won with a trifle of
riding by three-quarters of a lemrth. Lady Coop
er was second nnd Abundant third. The favor
ites wero last and next to last.
Tournament was ono of tho greatest per
formers in the mud ever seen herealHiuts, but
Tournament's full brother. Sir Play, started In
the opening dash nt six furlongs with 11! and ID
to 1 ugalnit him. Mistral was tho favorite.
Domitor, tho extreme outsider, was tlrst awuy
ln a grand start. Ho led until the last fifty
yards, whero Hewitt hrought Sir Play up and
w on by n good neck. Kulscr Ludw !g was n cloo
third, the favorite finishing fourth. Another
outsider marched to the front in tho second
event, a dash at ono mile. Ilcldcmero was
fnorlte, hut the light-weighted three-yoar-old
Axuro took her to the half-mile pole in U
seconds and the tlve-furlong ground In 1 :(r2j.
Thnt settled Deldemere, and Azure had things
his own way until tho stretch was reached.
Simms had been whipping and drivlngTom Crom
well, and he caught the three-s oar-old nt tho
sixteenth pole. Little Maher rode a grand finish
on Aiuro, putting down his whip and going for
his mount with hands and heels, simms was
tired with his earlier efforts on Tom Cromwell,
and the three-year-old won a good raco by a
neck. Beldcmere was third, some distance aw ay.
The mile was run In 1:43H, nnd from a time
standpoint lt was a good race. Azure was on
tcred for SOOO. but was bid up to Sl.-'iOS, and
bought in ut that figure by the Kenslco Stables.
Ameer tried to cat tho horses on cither side of
him at the post. General Macro was the fa
vorite for the two-jcar-old fulling race at five
furlongs, but the Urneral didn't win any victory
yesterday. Miss Florldo, tho outsider In tho
belting, by tho well-known old-timer llallston,
out of Itcfraction. winning for C. I). McCoy.
Oencral Maceo was beaten a neck. Hrcnlwood
wns third. Mr. McCoy bought n lot of cheap
yearlings last year nnd is winning with o cry
ono of them.
Tho last raco of tho day was a screamer from
n Init ting standpoint. Tho losers wore nnxious
to get out on tho day, and the speculation was
heavy. Wolhurst was the clink c, with St, Bar
tholomew and Volley next In demand. As much
tiionoy, howevor. went onSlrVussnr as on nny
other horso In the race. Ilelmarand Hen llrusli
wero withdrawn. Wolhurst und Sir Vnssar ran
head and head to tho turn, where the latter
was beaten, and St. Bartholomew- made his
moro on the outside of lho track. Taral swung
up next tho rail with Volley. Sloanctook things
very easily for a tlmo on Wolhurst. hut when
Hewitt swung alongside with St. Bartholomew
he enmo to llfo quickly. St. Bartholomew got
his head In front, but Hewitt couldn't In well
enough alono nnd went to the whip. TlmteoH
him lho full prize, for Sloane. gathering Wol
hurst together, got up and made a dead heat of
it. Volley was clo-so third. James Howe seta
Wolhurst to the post and ho nnd Trainer lly
land for Mr. Belmont doclded to divide the purse.
St. Bartholomew was u trifle lamo after tho rucc.
