A DECIDED SET-BACK. - In the Deba Contempt Trial Witnesses Allowed to Refuse to Answer Ques tions on the Ground ot Prob able Self-Incrlmitat ion.; Chicago, Sept. 11. At the opening of court this morning in the American Rail way union contempt cases, Judge Woods ruled finalh upon the question of whether the defendants should be required to produce their documents and constitution in court. Judge . Woods said: "As the American Railway union seems to be a voluntary association, I will hold that each member is part owner of these pa pers as much as the defendants, and will not order tftem produced." James Conniff , a Western Union tele graph messenger, resumed the stand. He identified his delivery sheet for June 30th, and pointed out on it a telegram he said he delivered to Debs. j Gus Wahlers identified all the defend ants present in the court as men he had seen when delivering telegrams at the merican Railway union headquarters. Debs was absent.- but the boy described him as a thin man "widout any beard and a graysuit. "several messengers testified to havitrgdelivered telegrams to the defendants. ; Fred Miller swore hg del ered four telesrams to Debs, July th, am on. Hamilton saw Debs give several tele rams to the Revere house operator to Bend. I James Clark, one of the attaches at American Railway union headquarters and an ex-director, testified that be re ceipted for several telegrams in the name of E. V. Debs. ClarK saia ne naa never seen any 01 tne aeienaanrs aictate or write telegrams of a business character. The Government expectea much 01 this witness, but he told little. . I When asked his employment previous to the strike, he said: "1 have j been hounded byalot of understrappers of railroads until rcant get a job and I would'nt care to answer that question, if the court pleases." The court ruled that he need not answer. 1 L. P. Benedict, Debs private secretary, was next called to the stand. , He de clined to answer any questions in regard to his connection with the American Railway union on the ground that it would tend to incriminate himself. In this he was sustained by the court, who satd, irrruling on the question, that the witness neea not tea even tne sugntest thing as it might form a link in a chain to incriminate him. On this the witness was excused from the stand. TheGov- ernment received another set back when Judge Woods sustained the next witness, James Hogan, one of the respondents, in refusing to answer any question whatever without confenng with his counsel. Attorney Walker wished to cross-examine the witness on his answer to the Original petition; but Judge Woods would not permit it. A legal discussion .followed, but the court remained firm, notwithstanding Attorney Walker tried hard to change his decision. - , ! Henry O. Shepherd, a publisher, testi fied that the union paid him for print ing the railroad Times, the paper being discontinued in August. i On cross-examination Attorney Erwin created a sensation by asking the witness if he had ever printed a pet of books for the Railway Managers' association, j-said books being designed to effect an equal ization of wages among the employes of railroads in the United States at a lower ayerage than now exists. Assistant District Attorney Milchrist. objected to the question on the ground that it; was not.cross-examination and was sustained by Judge Woods, who said the witness could be recalled by the defense when its case was being presented. The Jbooks referred to are those referred to by Vice President Howard, who swore they were in existence when he was a witness before the National Labor commission Howard also alleged the books were used f orTblacklisting purposes."" The Government hs. now about; fin ished its case, only tv?o or three witnesses remaining to be calledThe Santa Fe Railroad company will have a"fewwit nesses before the respondents beganpTer senting their case. A POWiRij,UL FACTOR In Developing the South So Capi talists Pronounce the Beorgani : zation of the South- J . em Railway. i Baltimore, Sept. 12. Eight bank presidents, including heads of banking houses in New York, Baltimore, Atlanta, Birmingham, Richmond, Savannah1 and Norfolk, gave opinions tc.the Manufac turera' Record this week of the effect of the.

Wilmington, A JUST REBUKE TO THEAFBO-AMERICAN PEESS ASSOCIATION. " Governor O'Ferrall Declines an Invi tation to Address That Body, Now in Session in Richmond, Be--cause it Endorses the Ida Wells Crusade in Eng land Against the South. - 7 Richmond, Va Sept. 12. In answer to an invitation to address the Afro American Press association, in session here, Governor O'Ferrall to-day wrote as follows: "Richmond, Va., Sept. 12. To Messrs. John Mitchell, W. " Calvin Chase, John C. Dancy ' and Others, Committee of Afro-American Associa tion, City: 7T "Dear Sirs: In response to your in vitation to address or attend the con y en tion of the Afro-American Press associa tion, now in session in this city, I beg to say I would not.think of accepting an in-t vitattjjn to address any convention or as Simbly that endorses, as 'your convention diaiastvenine, the course of Ida Wells in her BladersQfthe people and civil authorities of the South. "I condemn lynch-lawlisinuch as any one, and as long as I am Governor of Virginia, every man, whether white or colored, whatever the charge against him may be, shall have a trial by judge and jury, if I have to exert all the power given me by the constitution and laws of Virginia; and should any case of lynch ing occur', I shall endeavor to en force the I23 against the lynchers, but it strikes me tiiat the action of your convention is endorsing the misrepresen tations and slanderous utterances of Ida Wells is calculated to do harm, rather than good, and intensify, rather than mollify, the spirit of violence which bo frequently manifests itself, not only in Virginia, but-throughout the Sputh, when a certain crime is committed. The brutes who commit this crime, too horri ble to mention, and are summarily dealt with, seem to elicit sympathy from Ida Wells and her supporters, as though they were murdered innocents, while not a word of sympathy is expressed for their victims, who have suffered more than death. "I believe that if your convention would condemnjthe crime which has caused all the - lynchings jn the South, with rare exceptions, and the leaders of the colored people would frown upon it and cry out against it, and notexert their energies and devote their time to a denunciation of the lynching, there would be fewer outrages, and if so, cer tainly fewer instances Of mob violence. "I do not know, but it looks very much to me as - though the work of Ida Wells was a deep laid scheme to check as far as may betheprogress of the South, and every good citizehVvehite and colored, should feel an interest in refuting her villifications, rather than sanctioning them, as your convention did last evening. She and "her sup porters certainly stirred up a feel ing against her own race which did not exist prior to her crusade. The people of the South, who have labored so assidu ously for nearly a generation now to re cuperate and build up their waste places, will not take kindly to the effort which this woman and her followers are making to bring "reproach upon their - section, and create the impression that it is a land of lawlessness ancf disorder. "I have the most friendly feeling for the colored people. They have my sym pathies in all their struggles and lauda ble undertakings, as I think I have shown in my private and public life, and I was indeed deeply pained when I read this morning that your convention, composed of representatives of your race, had struck the South a blow which she' did not deserve. ". 'While I thank you for your invitation, I must decline, under thecircumstances, to address your conventiohsor attend its sessions. - X . - ' Respectfully, Charles T.

When the report of the committee on pensions was read, cheers punctuated every paragraph, it says in part: " We feel compelled to sav That' there is evidently on the part of both the Ad ministrative and Legislative Depart ments a feeling of hostility to our worthy and suffering comrades, the wards of the nation, who bore the heat and bur den of the battle a feeling which cer tainly should not exist in a country saved Wc their 1ftwiMnn.??'

New York, Sept. 12. Operations at the Stock Exchange continue of 1 a pnr fessional character, outside orders being few and far between. At the opening local traders were bearishly inclined and prices were depressed anywhere from i to 1 per cent., . Sugar and the Grangers leading: Cordage, however, dropped If per cent to 15 on an unfounded rumor that the capital proposed to issue $5,000, 000 new stock. The bears were not dis posed, to press their advantage, as the leading corporations are declaring their usual i dividends and railway earnings for the first week of the current month are keeping up very well indeed. , The anthracite coalers loomed into promi nence in the afternoon on rumors of a new iron clad combination and the re ports of progress in the Reading reha bilitation scheme. Lackawanna jumped 2i per cent: to 171i, Delaware and I Hudson i 1 to 136,. Sus quehanna, preferred, 2f to 47, Read ing If to 22 and Jersey Central to 115. I The spurt in these stocks had a good effect on the general list and an ad dance of i to I per cent, folio wedi Man hattan, the Grangers, Southern Railway, preferred, Richmond Terminal, Louis ville and Nashville and Missouri, pre ferred being most prominent. American Sugar came in for a good deal of. atten tion on account of street stories that there had been considerable discussion at the board meeting yesterday regarding the advisability of declaring 3 per cent, on the common at the present time. The stock first declined 1 J per i cent, to 103f and then rose to 105, a room trader hav-" ing bought over 5,000 shares on the way up. The buying led to a report that a new bullpoolhad been formed in the stock.! Whiskey was heavy and sold down from 16 to 15, the stock having been weakened' by the announcement that the holders of the rebate vouchers, dissatisfied with the security be hind the rebates, had combined for mu tual protection. In the late trading speculation was - firm and the market closed to per cent, higher on the day, except for Burlington and Quincy, Rock Island, Distillers, General Electric and Western Union, which lost to 1 per per cent. The bond market was active and strong. Sales of listed stock aggre gated; 116,794; unlisted, 70,905 shares. Chicago, Sept. 12. The rumored dis covery of a newi wheatexporting country was reported on the board ! to-day. The rumor was generally discredited, but, nevertheless, it assisted materially in de pressing prices. It came from New York land was to the effect that a cargo of wheat, amounting to 450,000' bushels, had been shipped from Chili to New Yorki Later, the rumor i was denied. Trading was rather dull and the market fluctuated between a very narrow range. ltr started with a show of strength on steadier cables and moderate receipts, also I somewhat : influenced by ' the strength in corn, but the! trading was light, resulting in the market selling off to the "put", price. Subsequently, prices were! forced up on the covering of a short line by local speculators, but the moment the demand was satisfied, the trade be ing entirely local, prices eased off again. Towards the close of the Fession the mar ket strengthened on light estimated re ceipts for to-morrow and the report came from JNew York that thirty loads of wheat had been taken at the Seaboard for export. December wheat opened at 57&cJ sold between 57c and 574c, closing at 574 to 574c, unchanged from yester day.

It started i firm on light offerings and a continuation of the bullish feeling, assisted by some buying oraers irom tne country, it weakened shortly afterwards on local offerings, caused presumably by the bearish Iowa State crop report. This makes the corn condition 36 per cent, and the yield 80, 000,000 bushels, the Government report putting it ot 74,000,000. The State report further adds that the fodder will be so generally Saved and used that the fodder and grain together will be equal to a crop of about 60 per cent, of an average.

The Duke made an address as follows: I- "It is with sorrow and emotion that I receive the homage of your devotion, and I thank you for it. Your presence notxraly testified your respect and at- bment to him we have lost, but it alsoyproves your fidelity to the principle of national and traditional monarchy, of which I am the representative and whereof he transmitted to me the heri tage. I know the" rights of this heritage. It confers duties upon me, it imposes upon me towards vi v-u ni'u i i nu miinoii nv r n u xn a cr nificent example i my father has given me during life, and which he con secrated by his death so courageously faced and accepted in such a Christian manner. Fortified by your aid and by that of absent friends, who, from all parts of France, have already sent me the expression of their devotion, and making appeal to all men of heart, I will fill without faltering the mission which falls to me. Although still young, I am conscious ot my duties, and witn my great love for France I will consecrate all the strength and energies I possess to iulnll tnem. At the conclusion of the manifesto the Duke cordially thanked i his father's councilors. Jackson Takes Down His Forfeit, Chicago, Sept( 12.
