know Glidden and could not say that he was
one of the boycotters who came in. They
left boyeotting circulars in my place. l
asked the men what they were for; they said
to boycott the COURIER. Mr.. Platt objected
to the evidence as Glidden was not individ
ually connected with it.
Mr.. Alling replied that the papers were
left at the mans place of business by men
intimately connected with Glidden. In
conspiracy the act of one relates to all. The
judge sustained the objection. Mr..
he could establish to his honor's
satisfaction. Here was body
of men engaged in a conspiracy to break up
the CoURIER's business as evidenced by MI
Darlington. When a conspiracy Is estab-
lished the act of one is the act of all. These
men who went into Mr.. Buchholz's were in
possession of handbills circulated for the OBJ
ject of breaking down the COURIER. 1t is for
them to show how a man not connected with
the conspiracy in any way can come into this
mans place of business and order him to
stop the COURIER because the COURIER
was being boycotted. None but Glidden,
the walking delegate, gives his name. He is
assisted in his daily work by others. Their
acts are Glidden's acts. We can't help it if
the deeds are done in the dark. If their acts
were done openly and not in a subterranean
manner it would be different. But they go
around in the dark, privately and under
handedly, and do this work under cover. No
reason is alleged; they simply say you will
be boycotted if you do not obey. The men
who came into Mr.. Buchholz's were among
Glidden's conspirators and using the circular
to aid the conspiracy. The judge said he
would exclude the evidence at present.
Mr.. Isadore Freedman, of Mendel & Freed
man. fancy goods merchants on Chapel
street, was sworn and testified that Glidden

that he was one of the proprietors: give
you full notice not to advertise in the JOUR-
NAL AND COURIER, for there is boycott on
that paper. If you do advertise in it you
must take the consequences. That ended
nv conversation with Mr.. Glidden. have

MI. Plat: At the time ulidden
was in I had net yet made
a contract with the COURIER, but had made
arrangements for one. No, before Glidden
came in I did not know him, but he said his
