Delaware state journal. [volume] (Wilmington, Del.) 1870-1883, 1880-12-02

ness called to articles published in EVERY
EVENING OF October 5th 1877, and November
Dist, 1873 which he identified as editorial
matter) To tho best of his knowledge
William 7. Croasdale was editor-in-chief at
the time those articles were published, and is
up to the present time.
The files were then put in evidence.
Examination resvlmed.-I am managing |
editor of EVERY EVENING; we exchange with |
other papers We receive other papers, and | |
suppose copy of our paper goes to them l |
do not know that our paper does go to them, |
OF my own knowledge exchanging with other |
papers means sending one paper in exchange
for another; we receive all the papers pub
lished in the State, | believe; among them
the Milford Mems. Georgetown Inquirer,
Breakwater Light. Dela,1arean, Sentinel Sea-
ford I,der, Newark Ledger, Smyrna Tunes
and others we receive most of the prominent
papers in Philadelphia, the Times Bulletin,
Telegraph, Ledger. Record and others do not
receive the Philadelphia city Item, Day, and
the sunday papers published in that city we
exchange with all the prominent papers OF
New York, the Herald Times, World, Tele-
gram and others do not exchange with the
New York Tribune, Sun, nor with the Brook
lyn papers we receive several Boston papers,
Baltimore papers, Washington papers we ex
change with two New Orleans papers we
receive the Savannah Ne,ps; we did receive
a San Francisco paper during the campaign,
but don't think we do now do not exchange
with the Buffalo and Syracuse papers.n
sis there any one of the 35 states that you
do not exchange with some paper in that
Statepn
"We have no exchanges in California or
Colorado there are no other states that | can
now recall we exchange with papers i'll most
of the~tates we bot most of the papers pub
lished on the peninsula, IL ~ partly my busi-
ness to examine our exchanges; the penin-
siIIar nm uprs ~ unlnr the gunpryigiOn Df Our
city editor, Mr.. Humphry.n
CrOss-examined-l do not know of my own
knowledge that the EVERY EVENING is sent to
any of these papers all can testify to posi-
lively is that we receive these papers they
come through the mail and are placed on my
desk.
Redirect understanding is that we re-
ceiye them as exchanges, but there are some
papers that come to the office which are not
strictly exchanges.
Mr.. Lore then read again the several
articles containing the alleged libelous para
graphs which appeared in the report of his
opening argument to the jury, published in
Wednesdays EVERY EVENING.
