JUICE BURLINGAME is not disposed to
criticise the article calling attention to
the disparity between the sentences i'm
posed upon the criminals brought be-
fore him. In the cases, cited by The

the maximum sentences provided by
law for such, and that the convicted did
not receive seyerer sentences is the fault
of the statutes rather than of the judge.

An English Syndicate Got the Worst Of It
In q Silver Deal.

An English Syndicate Got tho Worst OF It
In q Silver Deal.
DETROIT. April u.-Several years ago an
English syndicate represented by Walter
McDermott purchased a group Of silver
mines located at Fairplay, near Lead
vile, Col, known as the Mudsill
mines from Stewart A. VanDusen,
who acted as agent for Orrville A.
Watrous, the owner. The price paid was
$4,000 in cash for a one-half interest and
was paid upon a representation of the value
OF the ore as shown by samples of finely
divided cement silver. These samples
yielded an assay value of 81 ounces per ton.
After the money was paid the company COM
menced operations, and, it is said. 1t was
found that the average yield was ~ ounces
per ton and no native silver could be found.
Two years ago the Mudsin Mining Com.
pany filed a claim in the United States
Circuit Court in this city seeking to rescind
the sale which had been made to them on
the ground that the mine had been "salted."
To-day Judge Swan decided that the COM
plainants had not made a sufficient showing
of any frand on the part of the defendants
in sailing" the mine as to entitle them to
recover. The case will be appealed to the
United States Court of Appeals.

amounted to a general ovation to the bold

Ifanybody had been expecting Pardridge

Testimony Regarding the Huntington For

DRESDEN, April 1l-Mr. Hord. Mr.. John
Huntington's son-in-law, who is now in this
city in connection with the alleged forging
of his father-in-laws Endorsement to certain
notes, says that no matter what comes, Mr..
Huntington will not pay the forged notes.
MI. Huntington, who has been i'll at a pri-
vate hospital here is much better. He had a
long consultation with Mr.. Hord to-day. Mr..
Huntington thinks that the guilty parties,
knowing of his poor health, speculated upon
his early death concealing the forgeries. He
and his wife are therefore reused against
the treacherous friend who has forged his
name, and will fight any suits brought on the
notes to the bitter end.
Mr.. Hord reasserts that not one genuine
Huntington Endorsement is in circulation.
Af1icavits to that effect are being prepared,
and they will be sworn to before Mr.. Palmer,
the American Consul here, so that in the
event of Mr.. Huntington's death his testi-
mony against the genuineness of the in
dorsements will still be available.
