Trial of tho Penn Bank Swindlers.
PITTsBURa, June l6.-The trial OF
w. N. Riddle and g. q. Relber, presi.
dent and cashier Of the delunct Penn
Bank, on the charge of conspiracy, was
resumed In the Criminal Court to-day.
The court room was densely packed,
and the greatest interest was mani
tested In the proceedings. The indi-
vidual book-keeper, Mr.. Rowley, aud
the toller, Mr.. Normicutt, were the
only witnesses examined to- day up TO the
noon recess. The latter gave II detailed
checks on tho accounts which
were overdrawn, and stated that
ex-President Hopkins, Director Nc.
Laughlin and others examined the
over.drafts and must have been aware
OF their existence. Mr.. Hopkins would
mark tho places on the books when he
examined them. The case promises to
be q protracted one.
In the afternoon j. NJ. Young, the
general bookkeeper, was recalled. be
stated that one time, In October, 1883,
there was o difference OF $4,000
between the general and individual
ledgers, caused by tho overdrafts not
having been taken account OF in the
statement book. On May q, 1884, by
Mr.. Riddles directions, he drew up q
statement aud charg. d up 500, 900 cash
slips, which reduced the amount due
depositors to Sl,Ols.000. Mr.. Young
stated further, on cross-examination,
that tho directors had III times over
drawn their accounts. The largest
amounts were: A. M. Cayitt. SIG, $40; A.
A. Hutchinson, $45 257; d. w. Carroll,
$1,000; James IL. Hopkins, $40.
4. Is. Swearington, atdirector, was

know anything about the fictitious ac-
counts or directors severance.

LIBEL.

A new feature has been unfolded in
the law of libel as applied by the courts
of Texas and lately decided by tho
Court of Appeal Commissioners at Aus
tin, and the attention of THE HERALD's
readers is called to the case reported in
another column. j. III. COPELAND re-
covered verdict of $500 against the
Express Printing Company of San An
tonic for words and utterances in the
San Antonio Express alleged to be defa-
matory and libelous. The plaintiff
was at the time candidate for mayor.
The charges were of personal charac-
ter, endeavoring to substantiste the
allegation of the editor that COPELAND
was not suitable person to be elected
mayor.
The Express was backed in it's state
ment by what was considered respecta-
BILE authority, and further stated in
answer that there was no malice in its
the court below instructed the Jury that
when the Express had put in plea Of
justification and failed to sustain IL,
malice must be inferred. Under such
instruction the jury brought in a verdict
of 81, 500 against the Express defendant
and from which the appeal was taken.
JUDGE WATTS delivered the. opinion
of the Commissioners Court, and after
deciding that the answer of the Express
did not assert the truth of the publica-
ton as defense. further laid down the
law that defendant was not liable be-
cause "the answer asserted that thu pub
LEGATION was privileged and made upon
probable cause in good faith and with
out malice"
The Revised Statutes give the right to
parties defendant to put in all kinds OF
pleas, whether of law or fact, and JUDGE
WATTS in his opinion very properly as
serts that such right is not to be inn
paired by reason of apparent incon-
sistency. In other words, he seems to
assert in this case the absolute right of
the defendant to plead justification
without prejudice against him when he
alleges, also, that there was no malice
intended. In other terms the absolute
failure of justification pleading does not
necessarily impose malice on the de-
PENDANT to such an extent as to make the
matter libelous. This appears to be
good law and, in the eyes of the aver
age layman, is certainly good sense.
