witnesses at the -erm of court held af-

The Braham case is peculiarly Sensa-
tiOnal. VIM. Braham was indicted for
felony in July, 1887, fled the country,
and was never arrested. In July, 1887,
certificates were made out for eight
witnesses. some witnesses getting mile
age for 2s2 miles. In the November
term OF Court certificates were sent the
Auditor for twenty witnesses fees. No
Subppnas can be found. At the next
term, July, 1883. nineteen witnesses fees
were sent in, the majority being, it is
alleged, several hundred miles away.
There was no entry OF this on the books
and no Subppnas. Long after this
case had been dropped certificates for
witness fees were sent to the Auditor,
the last certificate being for SG7G.i0,
though no case existed at all.
The Prosecuting Attorney and the

to pay the 5000, and wrote Judge
Boreman, who replied that the case wa:
stricken from the docket. Some of the
