DENVER, Colo, May 4, 1891.
From our regular correspondent
The topics Of conversation this woek
are very u.uch the sams as last week, ex-
cept that the Millington trial has become
| thing OF the past. Last Wednesday
evening the jury brought In q verdict of
mot guilty" and the long and exciting
contest closed. The result was not sur
prise to those who have watched the
newspaper accounts Of the trial. Tho
evidence was purely circumstantial and
there were some weak points upon which
to hinge reasonable doubt. It Is an old
saying that chain is no stronger than It's
weakest link, and 1. applies equally we'll
TO chain Of evidence. In some quarters
there is tendency TO censure the authori-
ties OF Larimer county for having prose
cutcd the case ut so great an expense to
the taxpayers. On careful reflection,
however, it will be seen that they could
hardly have done otherwise. Justice to
the public and TO the accused seemed to
demand that the question should be finally
and authoritatively settled by o court OF
law. Had it not boon done there would
on the one hand have been tho suspicion
OF n failure Of Justice, and on the other tho
defendants would have lived Under .
perpetual menace. To claim that there were
no reasonable grounds for the indictments
is to ignore the fact that no grand Jury
could consistently refuse to take up case
where all the physicians in attendance
upon man expressed their belief that he
died from the effect Of poison. Tho trial
now is a thing Of the past and people gen.
orally have almost forgotten II, except
W en- it is incidentally brought up in con-
versation.
Just now the principal topic of public
interest is the coming OF President Harri-
son, May L. 1t is confidently expected
that there will DO more people gathered In
Denver that day than were ever before Is.
