HILL CHAMPION OF HUGHES IN HOUSE Delends 6. 0. P. Candidate from | Criticism of Illinois Solon | | 1 (Special to the Herald.) ‘ ‘Washington, Aug. 5.—One of the incidents of the week was a defense | of Charles Evans Hughes in the house of representatives by Represen- ‘ tative Ebenezer J. Hill of Connecticut. Mr. Hughes' speech of acceptance was being criticized by Representa- tive William Elza. Williams of Illinois when Mr. Hill obtained permission to ask a question, with this result: William Elza Williams — Mr. Hughes in one line criticizes the ad- ministration for placing an embargo on the export of munitions of war to Mexico, and in the same paragraph condemns the president for modifying | that order and permitting munitions to be supplied to the de facto gov- ernment, and has not the temerity or courage to say which he would have done under like circumstances or which he will do in the future in the | event he should be empowered with the authority to act. He finds fault ! with both sides of the transaction and leaves the public to which course he would have Mr. Hill—I ask the any idea of embarrassing the | gentleman or criticizing the line of his argument. 1 think the question is an important one. What have we to do in the future with reference to the action of our mercantile estab- | hments which, under the pending bill, which is before the committee on the judiciary and which was rec- ommended by the Federal Trade com- { mission, authorizes action with refer- ence to banks which are authorized | to be established in foreign countries? Are we to abandon them and leave them unprotected on foreign shores? It is a great question. We authorize the establishment of branch banks in all the countries of the world, and merchants and financiers and bankers are invited to establish branches in foreign countries. Must we abandon | them?

We will have an accounting with Mexico some day, as we will have with En- land and any other foreign govern- | ment which has infringed our rights. Mr. Hill—Then American citizens under these circumstances would be very chary about carrying American enterprises into foreign countries. Wm.

On going to the Framingham camp Thursday to in- quire regarding his status, Emerson was asked to give his name and com- pany. He declined and was placed in the guard tent. His counsel at once asked for a writ of habeas corpus and Emerson was taken before the =ourt under guard yesterday. Col. Sweetzer of the state forces told the court that Emerson’s conduct in refusing to answer questions was re- { garded as insolence to a superior of- ficer, and that inasmuch as he had inot been discharged and his term of enlistment had not expired, he was subject to military authority under the Dick bill. Emerson’s counsel on the other hand, contended that the new natlonal defense act passed June 5 abolished the state militia. He pointed out that the act specifically set forth that no militia would be recognized except such was or- ganized in accordance with the terms of the act, The act provided a new oath, he said, which the defendant de- ! clined to take, making him, there- fore, counsel argued, no longer sub- ject to military authority Judge Dodge remarked that the case presented difficulties but that on the evidence as presented he would “order a writ to issue In behalf of Fmerson. Because of certain technical faults in the papers, however, he would continue the case until this morning, he said. as HAD NO TLICENSE—FINED.
