nication to Judge Huneke fn open court
this morning, showing that Judge Sul
livan and Nuzum had talked concern
ing their testimony before the grand
jury of Friday. The communication
stated that when Judge Sullivan was
called before the grand jury today he
acknowledged that he had talked with
Nuzum and his brother concerning his
estimony.
When the foreman started to read
the communication in open court he
was stopped by Judge Huneke after he
had got fairly started. Prosecutor
Pugh entered a vigorous protest
against the order and demanded that
the communication be read, but this
was denied. The Judge took a reces"s
at which time he consulted with other
Superior Judges and then announced
that the three would be cited for con
tempt.
This is the first action of its kind
in the history of the county and so far
as Is known, in the. history of the state.
Judge Sullivan will appear for con
tempt before a Judge of the same court,
not as a Judge, but as a witness who
testified before the jury.
The grand jury's communication
states that the witnesses were warned
before leaving the room not to divulge
their testimony. Tne three men cited
refuse to make 'any statement.

LONDON, April 3. (Special.) Strange
as it may seem to Americans, the cam
paign for naval increase, conducted with
astonishing success In all parts of this
country, is based secondarily upon the
conclusions 'drawn from the Washington
programme. In the Navy League's cir
cular t is pointed out that the "United
States has six Dreadnoughts building and
two projected, a total of eight," and this,
together with the German programme,
"gives 21 large armored ships for the
United States and Germany, compared,
with 22 for Great Britain, or only 18 if
we assume that the Cabinet will fail
to authorize four additional Dreadnoughts."
At Uie notable meeting in Guild Hall
the most emphatic declaration by Mr.
Balfour was that the United. States was
expending more than Great Britain fhis
year on naval construction. The state
ment made a profound impression.
