In case any witness shall fail or refuse to obey any subpoena issued by the commission, or to produce before the commission such books, papers, documents or records as shall have been enumerated and required in any subpoena, or shall fail or refuse, when before the commission, to give testimony lawfully required by it, or fail or refuse to answer such questions as may be propounded by it which such witness would be required to answer if in court, he shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof, for each offense, shall be fined in any sum not exceeding five thousand dollars.
