A AREBUKE.-AP Pennsylvania jury has rebuked the system, so common to the Go1grhAment service, of leading people to. commit crime and then attempting to secure conviction on evidence thus obtained. A rniddle-aged woman named Mary Brown was charged in Philadel- phia with passing counterfeit money. The principal witness for the prosecu7 tion was . secret service operator nam ed Rnsse1 Applegate. In February last Applegatei was introduced to the de- fendant as Harry Wilson, and persuaded her to sell him g $20 counterfeit natisn- al bank note for $8. They exchanged addresses. and she told the detectye that she was living in Cincinnati, and wou1d write eff anything good turned up out Vest" Applagate afterWard went to Cincinnati, and obtained from the prisoner some counterfeit fifty-cent notes.

The jury returned verdict of not guilty,
