CHICAGO, March 5.-The communication
from David Williams in regard to the tract
indices of the abstract department of the
Recorders Office which appeared in your
issue of Sunday is notoriously at variance
with the facts in the case. lie lays great
stress upon the fact that these books were
purchased by Cook County's money. and
rushes To the conclusion that this should give
to the people at large the right to free and
unrestricted access to them: The County
Hospital is the property OF Cook County and
Of the Cook County Buard. Tn the theory
above expressed any citizen could walk into
the building and claim board and lodging
free. Dir. Williams goes OIL to say that The
County Commissioners and Recorder fenced
oil portion Ut the Recortter's o:lics and
started 4 private abstract oflice,'' seeking to
convey the impression that The Commission
ers and Recorder were engaged in Il private
speculation, from which they received pecu-
mary consideration. lie laments that the
salaries Of the clerks engaged i'll the prepara-
ton of abstracts are paid from the County
Treasury. The real fact is that the clerks
employed in this work are paid from the re-
celpts accruing from preparation OF abstracts
proper. This statement is in keeping, for
truthfulness, with the one wherein he sets
are engaged in (: private Speculation IN
the abstract matter. The County Board es-
tablished the abstract department of this
county in the month Of September, 1915,
the office Of Recorder. The Board, shortly
after purchasing the abstract-books in ques-
tion, established certain rates to be observed
By the Recorder in the preparation Of alb
srracts furnished from his Office. These rates
are at least 81 per cent less than are charged
tWo years, under resolution Of the County
Ro2rd- nnnhar Of extra men have. under

BRIGHTON House, March 4.-Will THE
TRIBUNE please remind the Directors Of the
Chicago City Railway Company that large
population in the vicinity Of the Brighton
House greatly need the accommodation the
horse-cars would afford? As it is, we are
obliged to walk to the bridge and then take
the cars to reach the city. For the last two
or three years have not doubt it would
have paid them handsomely to extend their
lines to this place; but they deem it SO essen-
tial to Keep up their heavy dividends that
they are too short-slghted to properly esti-
mate their own interest Ut course
they care for no other. If the line
should reach this puint early i'll the
seast,n it would stimulate building
all around US, and, while there are people
enough here now to support their line, The
increase in population would very soon pay
them handsomely, Their track now virtu-
ally terminates nowhere, for very few .peo-
pie live between the bridge aud the Brighton
lIouse, but here it would at once secure 4
large increase of business. II the e. G. Rail
way Company did not own the franchise. we
could raise the money AMONG my ne eigllbOrs
III y single day to build the line; but, ss it IS,
we are Obliged to wait for this slow coach.
How long, l ask, must our people wait for
this mttcll-needed improvement? j. NJ. u.

The Work Of the Grand Jury-Petty
Criminals.

FRlEDRERG IN BAD LUCK.
After Judge Moran had disposed Of some pet
ty cases In the Criminal Court, tho motion for
new triai in the case OF Lesser Frledberg was
taken up.
Nr. Storrs was not present to represent the
defendant, his client, but hB was represented by
eIr. Cot!cc. his partner. who wanted the decision
cf the motion postponed until further n!Hdavirs
could be liled.
Judge Moran said that he thought sufficient
dclay had already been had. He believed that
any number Of aitidarts could be filed, but
those already filed had no bearing on the case,
aud he was Inclined to dispose Of the motion
without further delay. The motion was based,
he went on to say, upon the Courts refusal to
give certain instructions presented On the part
III the defendant. During tho pendency of the
motion he had carefully examined tho
Instructions, and found that all that had been
excluded WIS Incorporated in tho Instructions
there was no real foundation for the motion, and
then the Court went OIL to say that the DEFEND
ant had had fair and Impartial trial; that he
had been represented by able and eminent coun-
sci; and t1t1t tho Jury which had passed upon
the case WIS one Of the best eyer iu,paneled in
the Criminal Court. He could not, therefore,
mutton for new trial.
The States Attorney then stepped forward and
31r. Coffee wanted time in which to file II bill
of exceptions with the Supreme Court, and su.-
gested that 1t might take thirty days TO nuke up
the record.
Tho States Attorney had no objection to time
being granted. hu: it was II ruie of the Court
thar the prisoner should be sent to Joliet the
Thursday following his sentence.
TAG Court-Alr. Friedbcrg, have you anything
