CMef Interest In Impeachment Pro
ceedings Centers In Charge That
Influence Was Used on
Erie Officials.
WASHINGTON, Deo. 4. Admissions
that Judge Robert W. Archbald of the
Court of Commerce had been interested
with him in a deal for the Katydid
culm dump, near Scranton, Pa, and
would have profited from the sale of
the property, were drawn today from
Edward J. Williams, of Dunmore, Pa.,
before the Senate court of Impeach
ment. Mr. Williams was the first witness
summoned in the impeachment of
Judge Archbald. Standing- at the
clerk's desk and facing Judge Arch
bald, who had been his friend for 30
years, the aged Welchman became a
silent witness to the duel between the
House managers and Judge Archbald's
lawyer as to what evidence should be
admitted.
Judge to Share Profit.
Interest today centered - about the
first article of the charges which' al
leged that Judge Archbald had exerted
Influence upon officers of the Erie Rail
road when they had a lighterage case
pending in his court, to compel them
to give an option to Williams upon Its
portion of the Katydid refuse coal
heaps, owned through its subsidiary
company, the Hillside Coal & Iron
Company.
Mr. Williams said Judge Archbald
had had nothing to do with getting the
option, further than to act as his
friend and recommend him to the offi
cers of the Hillside Company. Later,
however, under the Questions of Rep
resentative Webb, of North Carolina,
be said Judge Archbald would have
received half the profits from the sale
of the property.

"What did Judge Archbald do for
which he was to receive one-half the
profits from the coal dump?" demanded
Representative Webb.
"It was none of anybody's business
If I wished to give it to him," retorted
Williams.
To this ha later added that the In
terest of Judge Archbald resulted from
what "he did for me" and that "It was
partly through his influence that I got
the options."
The deal, as outlined by Mr. Williams,
began when he went to Judge Arch
ibald and asked his assistance in get

the Hillside Company, but Captain May
declined to give him an option on the
dumo.
"I went back and told Judge Arch
bald I could not get It and he said he
would see about it." said Williams.
Judge Archbald's attorneys fought
against the admission of a document
purporting to assign part of Mr. WH
Hams' Interest in the coal dump to
William P. Boland and a "silent party,"
supposed to be Judge Archbald.
Defense Charges Conspiracy.
A. 8. Worthlngton, counsel for the
accused man said the paper "had been
prepared as a damning piece of evi
dence" In the office of William P.
Boland, of Scranton, and that "it shows
part of the conspiracy against Judge
Archbald and the attempt to get him
into trouble."
The Senate was forced to vote and
the document was admitted as evidence.
From Mr. Williams Representative
Webb finally drew the admission made
last Summer in the House Investiga
tion, that hs had drawn up an assign
ment of part of the option to Mr
Boland and Judge Archbald, naming
Archbald as the "silent party" be
cause he thought it might get him
into trouble if he were an open party

FACTORY IS SUPRESSED
WITNESS SAYS HARVESTER
MADE ADVANCE PLANS.
Piano Officers at Time of Transfer
Aware That Plant Is Not
to Be Opened.
ST. LOUI3. Dec 4. Negotiations for
the sale in 1902 of the Piano Company,
of Chicago, to William C. Lane and
later Its incorporation Into the Inter
national Harvester Company were de
scribed this afternoon at the Govern
ment hearing in its suit to dissolve the
International by O. W. Jones, of St.
Louis, collection agent for the Inter
national, who was secretary, treasurer
and a stockholder in the Piano Com
pany. All negotiations were carried on
through George W. Perkins, Jones tes
tified, and he and the other Piano Com
pany officers acted on the advice of the
Flano Company's attorneys and Mr.
Perkins.
When he, with the other Piano of
ficers, went to New Tork in August.
1902, to transfer the stock and receive
in return stock in the International, he
knew, he said, that Lane was not going
to operate the Piano property.
After the transfer Jones became man
ager of the sales department of the
Piano division of the International, he
said, and. with four other men holding
similar positions, constituted a sales
committee that was abolished In 1904.
Another witness Introduced by the
Government, John Plattner, of the
Plattner Implement Company, of Den
ver, testified that his company began
manufacturing reapers in 1805 and that
every year since the output had dou
bled. William L. Carr. of Kansas City, an
agent for the International at Sallna,
Kan., from 1902 to 1907. refused to
answer certain questions concerning
contracts and the severance of his con
nection with the company, on the
ground that he did not wish to "ex
pose" the International by "showing
up" methods used by It in attempting
to drive out competition.

FOURTH CLASS TO STAND
Contention of Carriers With Respect
to Interior Shipments Is Over
ruled and Modification
Is Ordered.
OKEGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Dec 4. The Interstate Com
merce Commission, after rehearing and
reinvestigation, today announced its de
termination to stand by its report of
March 21. 191i, with reference to rates
and classifications of wool shipped from
the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Coast
territory to Boston and other East
ern markets. The Commission an
nounces that both railroads and shippers
have accepted and are carrying out
most of the requirements of the order
of March 21, but on several grounds
vigorous protest was made and the
contention made that the Commission's
orders were not practicable and could
not be enforced. The Commission falls
to find the complaints well grounded.
Minimum Declared Reasonable.
One point involved In the reinvesti
gation was the minimum of 24,000
pounds for cars 36 feet in length, pre
scribed by the Commission for trans
portation of wool in the grease. The
Commission now holds that the min
imum imposes upon the shipper no un
reasonable burden, but increases car
efficiency and economy of transporta
tion. It holds that if cars less than
38 feet long are tendered for ship
ment, a smaller minimum should be
provided in the railroad tariffs. It was
also contended by shippers that the
Commission should apply the rates es
tablished for baled wool in all In
stances where the loading of sacked
wool equals or exceeds the minimum of
32,000 pounds per 36-foot car, which
was prescribed for baled wool, but this
contention is denied, the Commission
holding It would work an Injustice to
the carriers.
Fourth-Class Rate Stands,
The Commission also refuses to with
draw Its ruling that wool In the terri
tory Involved should take the fourth
class rate, with a minimum of 24,000
pounds. Carriers were particularly in
sistent that westbound wool from In
terior points should not take the
fourth-class rate, but the Commission
stands firm on its order and will re
quire carriers to modify their classi
fication so that wool shall take not
higher than the fourth-class rate.
