Il Reporters Enterprise.

A story of reporter who, in order to
have an account Of an execution In the
afternoon paper which employed him,
asked the sheriff to hang tho condemned
man an hour earlier than the time set.
has been going the rounds lately in one
form and another. The Dramatic
Times vouches for the truth of
the incident, and gives what
he declares to be the true
version. The reporter was Mr.. Kenward
Philip, then engaged on tho Brooklyn
Eagle. He was sent to edo" the hanging
of man at Plainfleld, N. j., and found
the execution was not to take place till
midday, which would not get him back to
Brooklyn on time to do it justice. He
went to the sheriff and told him that the
failure to hang the man at 10, as an
nounced, would knock him out of Sc at
least, and asked him to put the cere-
monY at IL, so that he could
get the 11:3O train back. To MIR.
Philips surprise, the sheriff was very in
dignant, but finally promised that, if
Philip could persuade the condemned to be
hanged an hour sooner he would only be
too glad, to get the disagreeable job of
his hands. Mr.. Philip went to the muir
derer's cell and told him plainly what he
came for They had drink together.
The unfortunate found Philip a very
agreeable companion, and said that, so far
as he was concerned ,it'didn't matter much
whether he was hanged an hour sooner
or later. Philip then wrote q note to the
sheriff embodying the request, the con-
demned man signed it, and he was hanged
at II. 1t was subsequently ascertained,
however, that the condemned man could
not read writing, and the painful doubt
was expressed whether he knew what he
was signing. But Philip caught his
train.

LEGAL LIGHTS.
American Bar Association Trial by Jury
-Evsrts Before the Lawyers.

SARATOGA. Aug. 11.-At the session of thu
American Bar association Issac NJ. Jordon, oil
Ohio, read an interesting paper on trial By
Jury, its defects AMI their remedies. The Law
should be changed requiring unanimity in ths
verdict of jury. In states where such
change has been made the best results follow
ed. There is nothing in the federal constitu
ton which prohibits states from making such
change.
A resolution was adopted recommsndina
the executive council to call the next annual
meeting of this association at Green Brian
SPRINGS, Va.a
VIM. NJ. Evarts was received with applause
when he took the floor TO advocate the adop-
ton OF the minority report on the relief of the
supreme court. He commended the provision
that there should be but one supreme court
could only be complied with under the minority
plan. There is no authority in the constitu
as proposed by the majority. II
may be the greatest infraction OF
the constitution to constitute district courts
appeal to be final in certain class of cases then
divide the supreme court into sections as the
minority propose.
Sir William Preston, OF KY, spoke for the
majority report, calling attention to its en-.
dorsement by the senate passing the bill il
preferred ard characterizing the argument
the senate for passing the majority plan. The
association could not agree with the majority
plan. He would like to have four members
added to the committee and the matte referred
back for another years consideration. Judge
j. L. T. Sneed, of Tennessee, denounced the
minority scheme. AS to the constitutionality
OF the majority report, he said IL was well
known that Chief Justices Marshall and fancy
both considered the law sending them out on
circuits unconstitutional, but they acquiesced
In the law as the voice of the people.
E. b. Sherman, Chicago, spoke In favor of
the majority. On vote being taken thirty
nine were for the majority plan aud twenty
seven for the minority.
Sherman, Chicago, moved that as the crimi.
nal laws of the United States do not suffici-
emily distinguish and punish persons commit
ting crimes, as q business, that provision
should be made for the permanent confinement
Of those who do engage in crime as an occu.
patton or pursuit. Referred to the committee
on jurisprudence and law reform.
Evarts presided at the association dinner in
the evening.
