J.wr’- THE MACON WEEKLY TELEGRAPH: TUESDAY, MARCH 16,188C.—TWELVE PAGES. PUGH’S PERTINENT POINTS i\ THE CASE OF THE SENATE VS. 1 THE PRESIDENT. The senator From Alabama Champion, the C»uw of the Executive, and Replies to Edmund. In an Able, Forcible and Exhaustive Argument. Wai-iiikoton, March 10.—In the Senate, durian the transaction of routine morning Wneas, presentation of report, from com- rniitees etc., Blackburn .old: "Mr. Presi- T", i’ am directed by the committee on naval affair, to report favorably ihe nomi- nation which I send to the desk. ••What i» thaj? said Harris. “A nomination.'’ r _ r Sherman', breath seemed to have been filed in hi.

On the ternu ot tout relation Btited by too Senator from Vermont himself, the President could not, if ith self-respect, have held that Attor- noy-General in his cabinet a single moment after obeying toe resolution of the Senate Was that the way for one co-ordinate de partment of the government to treat another? Was not that request from this great lawmaking power to tue Chief Munis- trale or his Attorney-General one that would result in breaking up their lelatious of confidence and trust, und making the Attorney-General liable to iustant dismissal from the cabinet} What did the President say about the action of the Senate asking too Attorney-General for papers? Pugh real at from the President's message, other things that tho statement that there “had been no official papers or documents these length among hesaid, in something ot an undertone, “It will he withhold." Blackburn begged pardon of the chair. The chair laid before the Senate Logan’, resolution, offered yesterday, to refer to Ihe committee on rules for investigation, tho letter of Eads, denying that he (Eads) had any representation on the floor of the ^ltiddleberger found in the resolution, and „ Eads's letter to Logan as printed in to day's Record, an attack upon himself for which he held Logan responsible, and acainst which Logan protested. The con- troversv between these two gentlemen oc cupied the greater part of the timo until 2 o’clock. At 'J o’clock the matter went over nrjt)ifiiit action. ihe chair then laid before the Senate the resolution from the judiciary committee concerning the relations of tho Senate and the President. Pivdt said he had expressed his viows fully upon the subject of this debate in the report made from tho judiciary committee be the minority, and toe mainobjeot he had in now addressing the Semite in reply to the Senator from Vermont was to prevent, if it was in his power to do so (which ho ad mitted was a difficult undertaking!, that Senator from changing tho character of the question between the Senate and the Presi dent. The real character of that contro versy could not be misnndeistood or mis represented, ns it had arisen upon facts ap parent npuu tho record and the report by the majority of tho judiciary committee. When tho Senator from Vermont was at tho wheel he steered by his own chart; he never ran on straight lines; he never consulted other sailors; and he lost his temper when there was any question of skillful steamship; and when the officer of the ship undertook to seleot a crew to man it with out his advice and consent, ho instantly headed a mutiny. At the risk of inearring the displeasure of his honorable and distin guished friend, he should call <a reckoning so that wk might understand where wo aro and whither wo nro drifting. What were tho facts by which it is the dnty of all of ns tobe guided? They were few and simple. Ou the 17th of July, 1885, George M. Dus- kin, being district attorney of toe Southern district of Alabama, was suspended by the President, and on tho same day John D. Harriett was designated to discharge the duties of tout office. On the 14th of De cember, 1885, tho Senate being in session, Burnett was nominated to the Senate to get its advice and consent to his appoint ment. That nomination was referred to the judiciary committee, and it lay there over a month. In the meantime, on the ‘H-h of December, 1885, the term of office of George M. Dtiskin expired. On the 27th of January, 1880, one monthnftor the term of Buskin had expired, and be was no longer an incumbent of that office, a resolution was sent by the Scnato to the Attorney General. [The Benator here read the resolution of the Senate colling for tho papers in the Ilnskin cane.] For what purpose, he asked, was that information sought by tho Senate of the Attorney-Gen eral.' The majority of tho committee stated distinctly tho purpose for which those papers were sought. (Here tho Sena tor read from the majority report the pas sage ending with the declaration that “Pub lic interest und public duty would reqniro that tho facts be made known in order that tho Senate may nnderstandiugly and promptly advise their removal.") It was useless, Pugh continued, for him to read the other passage in the report making the same stutenn nt, that the nso tho Senate in tended to make of the document, and papers ’.sought from the Attorney-General was to enable the Senate to exercise the power of revising the act ot the removal of Buskin by the President, What was the character of the information sought by the ft-note from the offioc of tho Attorney- General? The resolution spoke as follow., on that subject: “Rosolved, that tho At torney-General of the United States be snd he hereby is directed to transmit to the Se nate copies of all documents and papers. ’. 1 . opinions of the Senator from Vermont? tired from the army by the retiring board stated in the resolution.” “There,“ said Pugh, * is a statement by the President of a matter of fact within his personal knowl edge, and tho Senator from Vermont contro verts the truth of that statement, having no foundation whatever for denial. There is a square issue made in the report of the majority of tho judiciary committee with the President upon tho matter of fact that is within his personal knowledge. Aro these pnpers called for from the Attorney-General such as this Senate has a right to have in tho discharge of its duties?” Tho Presi dent has stated that the papers were private and unofficial, and related to noth ing over which the Senate hod jurisdiction. Tho majority of the judiciary committee and its distinguished chairman (the Senator from Vermont) said that, although private and unofficial, they would enable the Sen ate to discharge the duty it had to perform, the power it claimed, of revising the nffl. trial act ot tho President in suspending Georgo M. Buskin os district-attorney. That was the undisputed basis of the claim to these piivato official papers. It was the power of the Senate to exercise the same control and revision over the act of suspension or removal that was claimed and exercised and given to the Sen ate expressly by the constitution of advis ing and consenting to appointments. There was no mistake about that being tho claim asserted by the majority of the judiary committee, and there was no mistake that the resolntion reported condemned the offi cial act of tho Attoruey-Geueral for the rea son that he had withheld, on the order of the President, information that he stated was private documents and papers that ho said were unofficial and private, and withheld from tho Scnato on the President’s private order —first, because they were privato and un official, and, secondly, because they related to no duty that the constitution or tho law imposed on the Senate. “1. there any thing,” said Pugh “in the history of the government to support thi» claim? The dis tinguished Senator from Vermont ha. pre sented a long array of what ha calls ‘prece dents.’ I undertake to say, and 1 challenge denial npon the fullest test, that there is no case in the history of the government for eighty years where any such documents as those called for in this resolutions were ever transmitted to tkb Senate in exeentive or public session on the order of the Senate upon an Attorney-General or President. My honorable and distinguished friend paraded in a manner that indicated that ho was about to achieve a great triumph over the President, toe production of a letter sent from the judiciary committee and signed by Allen G. Thurman a. its chair man, lo tho Attorney-General. I indorse all that the Senator has so well said abont Allen G. Thurman. Yes, Mr. President, Alien G. TUunnnn is the great, ct git wisest and purest American statesman now living. [Applause in the gnllorics, whose occupants were notitled by tbe occupant of the chair (Harris) that any further dotnon stratiou of npplatuo would result in the galleries being closed.] I was surprised that the great Senator from Vermont, in this great law making department of tho government, should invoke the name and fame und an thority of that great statesman to sustain the claim now made ou tho Attorney-Gen oral for these documents. What had Sena tor Thurman said on the floor of the Sen ate in relation to this power of removal. Pugh read from Thurman’s speeches in the debato on the tennre of offico net, in which he expressed the conviction that the power of removal was an executive power ex clusively, residing in the President nlone. Yet the Senator from Vermont in voked an order, signed by Thurman ns chairman of tbe jodleiary committee, ad dressed to the Attorney-General, which Pugh would read to the Senate. Pugh then read tho lettei, which was read yesterday by Edmunds, calling for papers bearing on the removal of Judge Shutter, of the Territory of Utah. That person, Pugh said, had been a judge of a Tentorial court, and in tho pro- Where would the foundations of these opinions be found—the cpinons expressed in his very remarkable speech of yester day? The foundation of that opinion was that that the power of removal was not vested in the President by the constitution! either expressly or by implication, but that it was a legislative power veste.i a'oue in Congress, and that tho President has no power either of removal or suspension ex- :ept such as he derived from an act of Con gress. That was the precise issue innde in the first Congress under the constitution of 1789; that was tho precise issne made by Clay and Calhonn in the oontest with Andrew Jackson in 1835. If this power of removal was the creature of the law, and there was no power to make the law except the two llonseB, then we conld find a predicate for the statement of the Senator from Vermout that either House of Congress could cull for papers. Under that view of the consti tution, under that view of the power of re moval, the Senator from Vermont was tally justified in stating that either House, by virtue of the power it possessed over -this matter of removal, had the right to call for information, l’ngh read from speeches of Edmnnds during the debate on the term of office bill to show that Edmonds maintained that re moval was a legislative act. In that debate, Pugh continued, there was no doubt, tbe beginning of this view entertained by tbe Senator to-day. He (Pugh) had no doubt that it was tho legal opinion of that distin- ;nished lawyer (Edmunds) that under the aw-making power ot Congress this power of removal conld bo vested in the House of Representatives alone, or the Seuatu alone, or the Speaker uf the House or the President of the Senate alone, or that it could he vested in the two lioUHt s ; ointly; that it waa the pnre creature of the . aw and under the absolute control of Con- tress. Pugh read from speeches ot Cal- in 18(11, but was subsequently restored to toe army and plaaed on the re- tiaed list by the President's order. After twenty years he put in a claim for longevity pay, on which tho Court of Claims decided that his restoration was illegal. He then had a bill introduced in Congress suspending in his cose the law regulating appointments lo tbe army, and it is this bill tout the President vetoed. He Hays MeBlair's claim ia devoid of merit and the bill established a bail precedent. Cleveland’s Coon. Washington. March 11. Senator Evarts to-day presented in open session a petition of lawyers of Albany for tho confirmation of J. C. .Matthew, the colored nominee for Recorder of Deeds. This is an executive matter. The chair looked surprised, but said nothing. WHOLESALE POISONING. TUE WICKED WORLD. BIG LYNCHING BEE OUT IN IN DIANA. John, Thomas and Martin Archer. Three Notorious Murderers, Taken from Jail bj a Mob and Uanged In the Court House Yard. LvnANOM.,VA., Mcrch 11.—Tuesday o\en- iag about evoty * of the almshouse were seized with vomiting and severe pains. Dr. We*isz, the attending physician, was hastily summoned uud at once pronounced it a case of wholesale poisoning. Measures were taken to counteract tho poison. To day most of the victims are suffering severely from nausea and twelve of them aro in a critical condition. An investigation revealed tho fact that that all who drank of coffee prepared for tho Tuesday noon meal were sick, and the doctor soon found the coffee pot lined with a thick sediment of Paris green. The ▼cRsel holds a barrel or more, aud into this some person had thrown almost four pounds of the poison. The doctor is of the opinion that had it not been that tho poison gras too strong, causing instant vomitin Not public documents, not official deco-' vision conferring tho power of suspensions uentH, not pnblio or official paper*; bat Private documents and private papers re lating exclusively to an official act oLthfe President in the suspension of tri t-attorney. The inquiring. ofreHe Senate *sh to be mode with, the knowledge of the fret ib*t more than four weeks before the resolution wss offered to tbe Senate the term of Dnskin hod expired. Then what possible nse conld be made of the informa- turn sought in that cose? It was pure fiction. Y hy the report of the majority declared mat the information was wanted to enable the Senate to discharge the great duty im posed upon it of making an inquiry as to the propriety of an official act by the Presi- dent, the power to do which was expressly conferred upon him liy law, to be exercised within his discretion. If they hsd decided that the retr oval was improper or nnwiso, what Would have been tue efffect of their decision? Conld it have restored Dnskin? w its he still a suspended officer awaiting the action of tho Senate to bo restored to the duties of bis office? The Semite was •<> day engaged in nn inquiry about a matter from which there could be no possible practical roault. It waa moot “•rely, R ud the Senate was tam ed into a moot court to discuss * purely abstract proposition. The refusal the Attorney-General, five weeks after expiration of his term of office, in obe dience to toe expreaa onler of the Presi dent, to send in privato documents relating to the suspension of Dnskin, was criticised m the resolution of the majority as a viola tion of dnty, and that violation was de nounced as being subversive of the Princi pe'*. 0 f government and of good ad ministration— an act bo character- ized as to make it sufficient Pound for instant impeachment. , hat was the relation between toe Preai- fmtiad his cabinet oflb-ers? Pugh would Ediuunda’a own words answer that the President, there was nn express ex- Ion ot judges of the United States. The Abn was whotherTerritorial judges were embraced iu that language. Tho Senator from Vermont knew that the question was now before tbe judiciary committee. He knew that the great Senator and lawyer from New York (Evarts) waa a member of that sub-commitleo, with the splendid law yer (Jackson) from Tennessee, and that after two weeks or more of consideration they bad mode no report on toe qnestion submitted to tb m of tho power of the President; in vacation, to sus pend a judge of a Territorial court. Tue Senator from Vermont knew that tho Senator from Now York (Evarts) had expressed the opinion that these Territorial judges were not subject to the power of auspeuslou by tbe President. That was to-day an open question, before the very committee of which the honorable Senator was chairman, and with the decla ration by ouo of the most distinguished lawyer* that ornamented the judiciary of tho country, declaring it to be bis _ opinion that this power of suspension given the President in section 1,768 of the Revised Statutes did not apply to Territo rial judges. Then why was it that Senator Thurman, aa chairman of the judiciary committee, *ent the order or i.quest to ihe Attorney General? He sent it under Section 17t>7, making them subject to removal, bu tonly by and with the advise and consent of the Senate. There wax a predicate for the order of Chairman Tbnrmnn upon the Attorney- General to send in all information and paper* relating to tho removal—not to the- suspension. [Pugh here read Section 1797 and continued.) oun and Clay to show that tho views en- teatained by those pnblic men supported the view of Edmnnds that removal was a legislative function and nnder tho control Congress. He had Senator Walthall read for him from the speech of Senator Spmguo in the Seuato iu the debate on the terra of office bill—a careful statement of the qnestion here in volved, Fngh said, which statement was known to have been written by Chief Jus tice Chase, expressing, on toe contrary, the conviction that the only function of the Senate in the cases involved in the disena- lion was merely one of sssont or dissent, and strongly controverting the point that the function of removal waa a legislative one. He (Pugh) boldly challenged reply to that paper os direct authority to support the view of Madison and tbe view that waa un derstood to bo that of Chief Justice Chase just read. Pugh read from the report ot the minor ity the opinion of tho Supreme Conrt, de livered by Justice Miller, in the case of Kilboum against Thompson. There was, he said, in that opinion a recognition of the proposition that when one co-ordinate de partment entreated with special powers called npon another co-ordinate, branch for information in relation to the exercise of jurisdiction or powem belong ing exclusively to that other depart ment, it was the dnty of the first to inform tho other of tbe nse intended to bo made of tbe information, so it might appear to the department having it in pos session whether it was its dnty to transmit the information in order to promote the exercise of the constitutional fnnetion ot government. That was precisely the ques tion involved in this owe. Now, he con- tinned, let it be tree that this was not the substantial exeentive power vested by tbe e-rastitnticn in The Pre, ident also., let it.ba true tv .t» like power of appointment the Senate shared with toe Presi dent—thn power of removal;, let it be tree that the power of removal was a leg islative power and not an executive power, and thni the entire regulation of it belong ed alone to Congress nnder tho constitu tion; let all that be true, amt lie would now call the attention of the Senate to the ex pediency and practicability of such power being exercised by tbe Senate. He read trow the report of the miuori.y, ns bearing npon tbe point, n portion of uu extract from thn message of President Grant in 18i’>9, calling attention to the embarmaaments likely to arise from leaving on the stntuto books tbo tenure of office act, and nskrag what faith the Presi dent could putin subordinates forced ttpon biui, and how auch officials would bo likely to serve an administration knowing that it bad no faith in biui. Tbe information sought of the Attorney-General ,by the res olution of the Senate, he said, wua to en able it, ao said tbo majority report, to decide whether they would advise and consent to the removal of these suspend ed officers, so that if they did not ail rise and consent to their suspension or retaovid the officers might, by the operation of the tennre of office act, go back into tlu-ir offices when the Senate should adjourn. What waa that hut exercising power by tho Senate of seleetiug agents fur tho President to exercise his constitutional duty ? What was it bnt compelling him to take into bis trust and confidence men w hom he luul ans. pended from office? Pugh further reud from tho report of the minority anil from the journals of Congress extracts from the speeches of Senators Morton and Sherman upon the proposed rep-al of the tennre of office set, and from those of Calhoun and Clay npon tbe powers of the Senate in the matter of removals. In conclusion. Pugh s«id bis object bad been to define tbe character of Ibis conflict of authority betweeu the President and the Seuuto and to fortify the view that had always been taken by the Democratic party, and to fortify it by antbontiea commencing at the first Congress and running down to the latest period. Cleveland had no fear of an appeal to the people; ho was res|ionsible to them. He supposed the majority in the Senate bad no fear of appealing to the peo ple in favor of the omnipotence of ihe Sen ate; he knew tbe minority had none in ap pealing to the people upon the omnipotence of the constitution and the integrity of Cleveland’s administration.

Tbe mob marched quietly into the towu and to the jail. When the jutl was reached the keys were demanded and refused, whit) tho Hpokesuinu ordered them to go in. ‘ The doors were battered down. Alter gaining an entrance and spending a short time with the doomed men, they were led out iu the midst of the mob and taken to the court yard. Few wards were unchanged. They selected the trees on which they were to be banged.
