STAR ROUTE CASES.
Judee Fox Decides the Crime
Alleged is Infamous.
He Orders the Defendants to
be Discharged.
Criticisms on the Management Of th'
Case.

WAsHrscros. Nov 10. In the criminal
court this morning Judge Cox rendered de-
cision in the star route cases, discussing
principally the questions as to the lnfamy OF
the crime charged.
The conclusion arrived at was that the
crime was infamous and that the accused
should have been proceeded against py IN
dictment. He therefore. sustained the mo
tion expelIing the information from MES OF
,be court and ordered the discharge OF the
defendants. ~,
As soon as the decision was rendered, Col
Cook read a statement. In It he denied the
allegations of Corkhll that the prosecution
had been informed of the contempt anu au-
iournment of the grand jury, If 1t mad NOT
been concealed from the government, ne
aid il had certainly not been known until
done. He admitted that the proceeding by
information was after thought, but that IL
was believed TO be sufficient.
The defence he asserted, would have am
ple opporrunity to meet the grand jury anu
petit iury in other analogous cases AFTER
the adjournment of the court the accnsed
were congratulated by their numerous
friends.
This action by the court brings the pro-
ceeding al an end for the present. and frees
the defendants from any legal liaoilltv on
this particular charge. The full effect OF
the decision can't be judged fully Its i'm
mediate resul, is to bring the government
rosecution into contempt. as 1t Is broken
down at the rst legal move, in matter to
prejudice and embarrass the whole star route
case.
The people say since this decision that the
government did not dare to go TO the grand
iurv with the cases that are not barred. Inc
government claims to have indisputable
proof in the cases which are not barred and
will inaugurate proceedings by the grand
iury.

Driving with the ParasOl.

The other evening the Jester was
bathing his eyes in cold water, and
suspended the operation long
enough TO remark:
"lf q woman can't take her para
sol to heaven when she dies, she
won't be happy there. She will
come back after it."
An impressive quiet followed this
dogmatlc statement, and the para
soils OF the court knew some Of them
were in for it.
ave were driving this afternoon
the aggrieved Jester resumed, land
the princess kindly shaded my
head with her parasol. It was very
kind, indeed. 1t limited my view
of the country, at times, to my
knees and the dashboard of the
wagon, so that l turned out by faith
or stood on my head to catch a
glimpse Of the colliding wheels.
When we started down steep hill
she dropped the parasol between me
and the horses, and l trusted to the
good sense of the animals to keep out
Of the ditch. When we met an &C
quaintence to whom [ wished to
bow, she knocked my hat into my
eyes. When she would point my
admlrlng gaze to some eXquiSitely
tinted autumn leaves, she jabbed
projecting parasol into my eye.
When she turned to speak to any
one III the rear seat, she rasped the
back Of my neck. Oft as the car
rage struck a stone or lurched over
rut she prodded my long-suffering
head with vicious little jabs. l drew
my head down between my Shout
derS and sat crouched and bent, but
the remorseless parasol still pursued
me. l have been pelted anG faSped
and prodded, and all from a miSta-
ken sense of kindness. a WOman'S
unseltiShneSs and kindness OF heart
always prompt her to hold her para
sol over the man who drives. And
if the man who drives is allowed to
choose for himself he will choose
sunStrOke in preference to the para
sol every time. [ do not complain,
mind you; merely make a simple
statement Of plain fact. Any man
who has to drive a pair Of horses
while some gente-hearted woman
held parasOl over him knows what

holds an umbrella it is infinitely
worse. Then the man is utterly
and hopelessly extinguished and thu
