KANSAS MORTGAGES.

Judge Botkfn Explains Why q Suit Was
80 Thrown Out
LIBERAL, Kan. Oct. 22-Judss Theo-
dore Botkin, of the Thirty judicial
district, is in the city. and was inter-
viewed in relation to the press reports of
his celebrated decision in the case of Will
son & Toms Investment Company VS..
] ohm G. Hillyer. and he has this to say:
81 did not decide that a mortgage given
by q pre-emptor, or nomesteader. pri or TO
receipt of the receivers final receipt was
illegal and void. That question was not
raised. The question before me was this:
The defendant entered into CONTRACT with
the loan company six days before making
final proof by which he agreed to mortgage
his pre- emption claim. The plaintiff adj
vanced him more than 500 under the con.
tract Defendant after final proof r efu<ed
to execute the mortgage, and suit was
brought to compel specific performance.
ruled that as the contract was made be-
fore final proof. and as The plaintiff knew
defendant would have to commit perjury
under the act of Congress of 1S41 in maxi
ing final proof in the face of that contract,
that therefore, the contract was tainted
with moral turpitude- on b,th Sides and
was illegal and void. and that equity must
leave both parties where it finds them.
THE case was very ably argued by Hop
j. L Pancoast, for plaintiff. and by Col
S. n Wood, for defendant, and my deci-
sion was ba sed upon the decisions of Tho
Minnesota court in several cases md upon
our Kansas Supreme Court decision in
Brewster VS.. hidden, ID Kansas, and the
decision of the Supreme Court OF the
United States in 10, Wallace Warren VS..

annual report to the Secretary of the Sn-

amy. The first legislative act signed by
my late predecessor was the repeal OF that
act IreQuest and urge that Congress re-
peal the repeating act and re-esta blish
the above territorial law. Politically the
Mormons seem to have adopted the
plan of sending colonies of stakes to the
surrounding territories in sufficient num-
bers to form balance of power between
the two political parties. They Ure 0ill-
ing to trade with either, but remain true
only SO long as the interests of tn Churco
are best served. The Church is their Ia w
and all other law 10 subservient to the

JEFFERSON BARRACKS

-. om.s,1 Report OF the Court of Inquiry
SHOWS Reported Abuses Exakgeratsd
nut Not without Foundation
WAsHrverox. Oct sz-The report OF the
army court of inquiry which Investigated
the charges made with regard to the treat
msut of recruits AT Jefferson Barracks,
No, has been laid before Secretary Proc
tor by Captain Ebstein. q member OF the
court, who came on here Ter tnat purpose.
The report consists of . voluminous
mass of testimony and q summary Oh the
evidences No recommendations or opin-
IONS are contained in the report IS me
articles OF var provide that courts or m
quiry shall not submit any opinions with
their reports unless specially ordered 60
DO 50. and no order was made.
Inc testimony shows that the charges
were exaggerated, but that there was
some foundation for them. The charges
OF cruelty toward enlisted men was not
proved. 1t was found that the food was
poorly cooked and badly served. The ra-
tions were ample and the supply of veg.
etables abundant 1t was shown how
ever, that too much coffee and sugar had
been saved and turned over to the com.
missary for its equivalent in money, and
that the messes had not been Conducted
judiciousiy. There was no missppropria-
ton of money. and it was all placed to
the credit Of the different messes-
The charges that non -commissioned
officers were taking advantage of the re-
cruits and were running games o. chance
such as stud-poker, chuck-a-luck and the
like. and thereby getting part OF the
monthly pay of the men were sustained
Only one case of what might be called
harsh treatment by the non -commis-
stoned officers was discovered, and this
branch Of the allegations practically fell
to the ground. The assertion that men
were strung up by their thumbs ID tn
guard house was disproved, although 1t
had a slight basis Drunken and refroe-
tory prisoners, for their own safety ant
thatof other soldiers and of the Govern
ment property, were placed in large
cage and their wrists handcuffed on the
outside OF the bars, but this was neither
harsh nor cruel treatment and was gen.
orally necessary.

THE GREAT TRIAL.
The Cronin Trial Begun-The States At

The Cronin Trial Begun-The States At
torney Opens the Case.
CHICAGO, Oct. % An immense crowd
was present in the court room yesterday
morning at the opening of the Cronin case.
After the defendants were brought in the
jury was called and States Attorney
Lop checker commenc ed his opening adj
dress.
He reviewed briefly the long continued
sitting Of ven iremen, which had resulted
in the selection of the twelve men before
him. He then defined the duties of jury
men; defined the meaning of a presump-
ton of Innocence as applied to the trial of
persons charged with crime, telling the
jury that a presumption of innocence was
not a matter to be weighed against evil
dence. It was, he said, a mere negative
which stood in the way of conviction in
the absence of evidence, but must not be
allowed to weaken the force of the evil
dence given. Mr.. Longenecker next took
up and defined the meaning of a reason
able doubt as applied in such cases.
Judge Longenecker took up the facts
which have already been made public in
connection with the Cronin murder, and
though no new facts were presented. those
already known were related in chrome
logical order and in such a way as to
make complete case of conspiracy.
I'm this ca !" he said. ION the evening
of May 4, Dr. CrOn1n was caifeQ away
from home at seven p N. and never after.
wards seen by any one but his murderers.
Conspiracy to blacken the character OF
Cronin Immediately showed itself by teie-
grams tending to show that Cronin had
left the country. Next the body was dis
covered in a. catch basin Every act
showed conspiracy to commit murder.
Every act has a motive. We think we can
show the motive in this case. Back Of ali Is
the Gamma Gael We are not here TO try
that body, but to show the mo i've of this
murder. We must go briefly into the
history of this organization. Organized
to help Ireland, m my patriotic Irishmen
Joined it. Other men joined for political
purposes; others for money to be made
out OF it Funds were raised which were
held sacred The fu1d was embezxled
The crime was fixed on certain parties.
Cronin demanded justice. Cronin was re-
moved.
Judge LongeDecker's statement of the
case was lengthy and exhaustive and con-
tinued into the afternoon. At the close OF
the statement defendants waived making
q statement and examination OF witnesses
was begun.
