Prisoners as witnesses.
New Orleans Times, April 14th.l

NEW orleans ApEll 44LI'I
The story of John P Phair, the Yer
mont prisoner who, when on the point OF
being executed for murder, was enabled
to prove ar alibi by means OF q published
statement, was used with telling effect
in the State Senate Friday in the debate
on the House bill authorizing persons
accused of offenses to testify IN their
own behalf.
Pbair, in his published defence, stated
that at the time of the homicide he was
on railway train many miles from the
scene of the tragedy. The article at
tracted the attention Of a merchant who
distinctly remembered the man as his
fellow passenger. He telegraphed the
Governor of Vermont, notifying him of
the circumstances, and first secured a
reprieve and subsequently the mans re-
lease. The case was cited as eylnclng
the necessity, upon more than one occa-
sion, of hearing an inside history of the
case from the accused person himself.
IN the prolonged debate this issue oc-
| easioned, the grounds were taken that
under article s s OF TIC tic State constitution
10 Derson can be compelled to give tes-
| timony which might criminate himself.
| II was eontended that while this amend
Inent to the criminal code would cradle,
the prisoner to testify in his own behalf
/ nnon the cross examination by the pro-
| seeming attorney he could invoke the
PROTECTION of the constitution and nulify
The efforts of the State to elicit informa-
! tion. %
/ IA 4 minority repous of the judiciary
/ committee, declaring the bill, amended
/ 81 "a to authorize cross examination, url-
i Constitutional, was adopted, but the mat.

Rip Van Wrinkle" Streets of New
York. Fanchon the Cricket" Ten

Hamlet" with remarkable success and
satisfaction to the audiences. MIR,
Stuttz is a first-class actor, and is we'll
supported by the members Of his COM

that distinguish them. We would like
to review some instances of very line
acting by some OF them in these several

it. Tonight, Mr.. Stuttz new play,
