Monroe case in the Criminal Court to-
day was Robert Cohen, a bluff English
man. He was asked if he had any opinion
about the case. and he replied that he
was down on man who would beat o

leave the house afore he would do it. y
Upon il being explained TO him that it

A large man, who sat on the wharf,

regard to the hard times. He said the
trouble was that capital was opposed to
