The City Council and the Liquor
License Question


Tbs position of the City Council
towards the public in grant
ing liquor licenses, is a very trying
one, and many persons are apt to
judge them wrongfully. While their
acts are only ministerial under the
law, they are at the same time the
sustodians Of the peace and good or
der Of the city. There are always
two sides to every question, and this
is no exception to the rule. Peti-
tions were brought TO bear upon the
members Of the board to close up
certain saloons on the ground that
there were too many for the conye-
nience of the public. While this
may be trne in moral sense is it
right in legal point of view ? Does
it morally lessen the evil complained
of TO close up one saloon ana allow
the other fellow to keep open, sim
ply because they are too close togeth-
er and one is sufficient to accommo-
date the drinking public of the
neighborhood Would not this be
class legislation of the worst kind,
by creating a monopoly in the traffic,
which is constitutionally and legally
wrong. Instead of lessening the
evil it would only be increasing it,
for where two places before did the
business it would now be crowded
into one, which would only add to
the noise and confusion complained
of. The City Council, under the
law, have no right 10 abrogate to
themselves the power to close
up one mans place of business
and keep open another without
"a Just cause. One man has as much
right as another to sell, so long as
he pays his license and conducts his
business properly. With all due
respect to the petitioners, the coun-
Gil could not have done otherwise
than they did, under all the circum-
stances. We must view the matter
from legal stand spoint, that is the
only way to look at it.

Yesterdays Testimony in the Celebrated
Murder Case.
CHICAGO, Dec. lathe prosecution in the
Coughlin case devoted its energies largely
today to unraveling the mystery surround
ing the story of the wagon in which Cronin's
remains we're said to have been carried from
the Carlson cottage to the catch basin.
Policeman Steib testified that he was on
duty on the night of May 4. He was called
to testify to having seen the mysterious
wagon, but his evidence was strongly OBJ
jected TO by Judge Wing. The objection was
overruled, however. and the witness stated
that at II o'clock on the night in question
he saw three men in a carpenters wagon
drawn by a bay horse. In the wagon was a
large trunk. He was unable to describe
the occupants of the wagon. The We
hicle at the time was going IN the
direction of the catch basin where
discrimination Steib contradicted the
statement made at the former trial regard
ing the color of the horse that drew the
wagon. Then he said it was a dark gray,
while today he was positive that 1t was a
dark bay. Officer James Riley was with
Steib at the time the wagon passed and cor
roooratcd that officers testimony.
1t is stated positively this afternoon that
Mrs. Foy's brother, Joe Mclaughlin, will
sail for America within a few days, and that
an ocean ticket has already been sent to
him. =
Unconirmed rumors were current this
afternoon that counsel for the state has dis
agreed as to the manner of conducting the
case, and that either Assistant States At

Arrival at New York of the Man Who
wanted to Fight Germany's Emperor.
New YORK, Dec. l4.-Prof. Richard
Goerdeler, who has achieved considerable
notoriety from his declared intention to
challenge the emperor of Germany to fight
n duel, stepped ashore from North German
LLOYD steamer Havel today, and was taken
by his wife to their temporary residence in
this city. The professor was exceedingly
anxious to talk to newspaper men, but his
wife would not permit 1t.
Mrs. Goerdeler said she had obtained the
professors release from an insane asylum AT
ChemnitZ through the intcrcession of Presi-
dent Cleveland According to the profess
sor'S story, his trouble with the emperor of
Germany dates back to 1862, when he was
lieutenant III the Prussian army. He was
dismissed by Bismarck because he pos
sessed the knowledge of IA shipment of arms
by the great chancellor 10 the southern con-
federacy in America. The impression OF
the professor has been that Bismarck fol-
lowed him to this country and endeavorcd TO
ruin him socially here, His appeal to the
emperor being unanswered. he threatened to
challenge him unless Bismarck was pun
ishcd. The professor started from this
country about two years ago, declaring his
intention to challenge the emperor and was
arrested on mis- arrival, examined aud de-
clared insane, and since that time has been
confined in an asylum.

Mother OF Carter nnrrison's Murderer Tci's
of Ills Boyhood yagarics.
CHICAGO, Dec. 1.-THE court room was
crowded today during the Prendcrgast trial,
many ladies' being among the spectators.
Prcndergast was nervous and i'll at ease
when Carter Harrison. it,, came into the
room with his wife and his sister, Miss
Sophie Harrison. The latter was called to
the witness stand and her testimony was
given with great effort as she told of the
murder of her father. A number of other
witnesses were examined, but their testi-
mOnYd developed nothing new.
Ia prosecution rested its case with the
evidence of the physicians, who produced
in court the bullets which were fired INTO
the body of Mayor Harrison. The first wit
ness for the defense was Mrs. Helen Prem
dergast, mother Of the prisoner. Her owl
denco was wholly in support of the insanity
theory. She said that about the time he
was merging from boyhood into manhood
she saw with some CONSERVATION that there
was a marked change in his disposition and
that he became IA recluse, dcvotlng himself
to books and avoiding all forms
of outdoor diversions common to
boys. She said he often talked
counsel and grew furious when she sug-
gcsted that he was not lit to hold the posi-
ton. She testified that he had a bad fall
when a child in which he had struck his
head so severely as TO injurc his eyesight.
Brother Baldwin, the director of a Catho-
lie school which Prendergast attended, testl-
fled that he had considered the prisoner de-
meGted-not crazy enough TO necessitatc
confinement, but too crazy to be an agree.
able companion. His opinion was formed
more from the prisoners actions and manner
than from anything he said.
During the cross-examination of Mrs.
Prendergast by Attorney Trude the pris-
oncr lost his temper and exclaimed
''Trudc, YOU are a scoundrel to talk to my
mother that way"
