it with q single loaded car, then two three, and.
finally, four, but not the slightest weakness was,
visible. Shortly afterwards, however, an awful
crash was heard BY Mr.. Hodgemann and
his gang, who were at work somol
distance on. Proceeding Immediately to the
spot they discovered the cause. The trestle hads
given way and three OF the four dumps and five OF
the twelve workmen were precipitated into thei
water. Four OF the men-Micnael Connor, J0hnj
Monahan and two Portuguese--were rescued, but
all suffered severe INJURIES. = The 1fth q young,

IN TIE SECOND DEGREE-THE wALwoRTH
CASE AND BANGING FOR MURDER.

The Jury in the Walworth case have found the
Young man guilty OF murder in the second de-
gree. This is a triumph Of Law and common
sense, as far az it goes, but the fact tLAt the
guilt was not ixed in the hrst degree is onemore
evidence o; the unEillingness OF juries to hang
people. 1t is only the rough and rude who are
ing. Her sex. and the relations she bore to
b T victim saved Mrs. Fair, Of San Francisco
from swinging in spite Of the law, and consider
Ahons of like quality and weight, though not
precisely similar i1 character, acquitted West OF
the bnrclery OF Cooeh Turner.
As We have said above, it is only the common
criminals that swing men Of high standing in
society and th1ss whose acts Of murder are ac-
companied by sensational or excusing eircum-
stancss csnno, be put TO death without sheck-
i ~ the public sense, and going counter to the
actual pablic demand. The associates and Ad-
nirsrs OF Flsk doubtless thrsted for the blood
of Stokes, but it may be safely said that there
has never been time since the homicide when
great n j Jrty Of people did not feel disin-
c!iaed aud unreaiy to take hand in hanging
the latter for his act. They recognized the fact
that he had committed murder. and that the ex-
clssz for it were in the eye OF the law, utterly
ninzy and worthless, but under rude theory Of
comparative jastics, they received confederation
and had weight, without regard to the strictly
legal aspects OF the case. Tnis saved Sickles
from being convicted of the murder OF Key and
has led to the adoption Of the very thin, but sp-
pareuily sufficient cloak Of Temporary Insani-
ty." to excuse acts of murder for which the ac-
tor would have to suffer, but for some such
thsory Of defeuce.
Ia fact, a4 Stokes is reported to have said,
- hanging is played out" except in the case Of
persons without friends or money-u known,
