The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1893-03-18

SENATOR DANIEL of Virginia paid q
noble tribute to Irish genius in America
when pronouncing eulogy on the late
Congressman Warwick in the United
States senate. After referring to the
Irish in wit, oratory, literature, general
ship and craftsmanship, the eloquent
Virglnian said: "We not only find the
poor and humble Irishman with his pick
and spade climbing the mountain and
building the railroad, but We find him
the president of the bank, the president
of the railroad, the organizer Of great COM
mercial schemes and political movements,
showing chat Irish ability in business,
where cold intellect meets it's like in the
haed conflicts of competition, is on a par
with it's brilliance as it shines in sorg
and story"

and were attached to the chair of Peter,
and that Rome was the head of the
churches of the world. There is no
valid foundation for the statement that
Ireland possessed doctrine different
from that of Rome, which sent st. Pat
rick to preach the gospel of Christ. For
several centuries after his death students
came from every European country to
ireland to study in her colleges, and mis-
sionaries from Ireland went to preach
through all Europe, and even to Rome
itself
There is no historical record that the
Pope and the ecclesiastical authorities Of
these countries ever found faplt with
the preaching of the Irish missionaries
on the ground Of heterodoxy.
The same faith IS taught in Ireland
today as in these early ages Of the
church. The Irish have preserved it
.tpure and undefled" as it was given 10
them by ST Patrick fifteen centuries
ago. They have kept it despite the
penal laws passed for its suppression,
and today it is as warm in their hearts
as it ever was. We cannot close with

IT WAS A DRAW
But the Jury Agreed Upon
a Verdict.
A Lawsuit Argued by the Attorneys
Under the Marquis of Queens
berry Rules.

a scene anticipatory of the coming en-
counter between Champion Jim Corbett
and Charley Mitchell enliYened the some
what dull proceedings in Judge Slack's
courtroom yesterday, the only misfortune
being that the Judge was not present to
act as referee. That Office was taken by
his clerk. Frank II. Kilduff.
1t was during the trial of the action
brought by Christian Yetter against
O'Brien e Co., carriage builders, to re-
cover $4,000 for the loss Of three fingers
of bis left hand through default in the
machinery while moving A car. Yetter
was in the employ of the defendant CON-
pany. The trial had lasted some days. but
the case did not 60 to the jury until yes
terday afternoon.
All through the trial there had been bad
blood between Attorney LeZynsky, repre-
>eDting the plaintiff, and Attorney c. II.
Wilson. who appeared for the defendant
company. LeZynsky complained that
Wilson, backed by a wealthy concern. had
made his task very unpleasant for him by
nsolent behavior. However, he bided his
time until his turn came to make the clos
ing appeal to the jury on behalf Of his
client.
In that speech Lezynsky drew attention
to The poverty Of his client and the wealth
that was behind the defense, and then he
commenced a furious attack upon Wilson.
He called his learned brother bad names
and accused him of making false state
ments TO the jury. Wilson had TO endure
1t all, but ne did not like it.
Lezynsky closed and the Judge retired.
No sooner had he done so than Wilson ad-
Vanced TO where LeZynsky stood.
Now, Mr. Wilson, 1 first want to let you
know that l amt afraid of you," shouted
LeZynsky.
Wilson's sole reply was a slap on Lezyn-
sky's cheek administered with all the
might OF Wilson's slender palm. LeZynsky
countered with his right fist, and says he
hit Wilson somewhere, as his hand feels
sore.
"Time!" roared Clerk of the Court Kill
duff, ana he rushed between the combat
ants at the imminent peril of his life.
Right, however, triumphed over might.
and the cause of virtue came out On top.
The combatants were pushed breathless
into their chairs. The battle was over.
Result draw.
Meanwhile the jurors stayed to see fair
play. They enjOyeu the scene hugely,
and when they went to consider their YER
dict the late encounter was so impressed
on their minds that, even as they were un-
able to agree upon the merits of the battle,
so they disagreed On the merits of the
case, after being out until o'clock.
Judge Slack, however, urged them to
try one more ballot, especially as one or
two jurors appeared to be wavering.
Much TO the surprise OF all, this last
ballot was successful, and the jury re-
turned verdict in favor Of the plaintiff
for $1,000. There were three dissentient
jurors, however, but enough agreed to
make the verdict good.

Rippey Convicted of the
Lighter Offense.
The Jury Expresses an Earnest Wish
That the Sentence Be as Light
as Possible.

A Jury in Judge Seawel's court con-
victed Wesley e. Rlppey yesterday. on his
second trial. of an assault with a deadly
weapon on John w. Mackay. the capital
ist, at the same time recommending him
to the extreme mercy of the court.
When court resumed yesterday morning,
Lewis Freer made the closing speech for
the defense. He claimed that the evidence
of the expert witnesses proved conclusiyely
that Rippey must have been insane at the
moment of the shooting whatever his con-
dition might be at other times. The coun-
sci also introduced theory on the danger
of self-cocking pistols, with the suggestion
that with such pistol one would be less
likely to bit the person aimed at than some
one else, In conclusion he made a very
earnest appeal to the jury for mercy on
behalf of his aged client.
Mr. Hipkle closed on behalf OF the PROS
ecution, and the jury, after receiving the
Judges charge. retired to deliberate at a
quarter before noon. 1t was not until
3:45 p NJ that a knocking at the jury-room
door Indicated that verdict had been
agreed upon. The jury filed into court,
and the foreman delivered the following
verdict:
We, the Jury in this case. find the defendant
guilty OF an assault with deadly weapon. and
recommend him to the extreme mercy Of the
court.

They viii Control the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-Chairman Car
ter, of the Republican national committee,
gives it as his opinion that the Democrats,
aided by the Populists, will wrest the or
ganization of the senate from the hands of
the Republicans in early March. He does
not share the belief of Senator Warren, of
Wyoming; Senator FELTON,, of California,
and Senator Perkins, of Kansas, and other
senators from northwestern states that
their legislatures will be able to return Re
publicans to the United States senate to
succeed those whose terms will expire with
this session.
He so entirely gives up the hope of Re
publican senator from Montana that he de-
nies ever having been candidate to sue
ceed Senator Sanders. In Wyoming and
Kansas he thinks that the Populists and
Democrats will join in electing Populist
senators, and that all of them will vote
with the Democrats in reorganizing the
senate next March.
Sofar as Wyoming is concerned Senator
Warren does not agree with Mr.. Carter
and has left for Cheyenne to look after his
interests. He believes that he will be re-
elected. Nevertheless the conviction is
growing that the senate will be reorgan-
lied and controlled by a fusion between
the Democrats and Populists.

HARTFORD, Jan. 4.-The outgoing SEN
ate's last act was "A snub to the governor.

senate adjourned abruptly, appointing no
committee thus refusing to the end to

HARRISBURG, Jan 3-At the Republican
senatorial caucus resolution was adopted
providing for the holding of joint caucus
of the Republican members of both houses
on Jan. II to consider the nomination for
United States senator to succeed NJ S.
Quay. The caucus selected the following
officers President pro tenn, j. b. S. Goblin,
of Lebanon; chief clerk, +. w. Smiley, of
Nenango; journal clerk, James l.. Brown,
of Philadelphia; reading clerk, j. NJ. Car
son, of Butler; message clerk, w. G. Rog-
ers, of jefferson; transcribing clerks Henry
II. Thorpe, of Mercer, and ID. c. Barkman,
of Somerset; clerk to president pro tenn,
James McB. Rohb, of Allegheny; sergeant
alarms, John II. Flyers AS the senate is
Republican they will be elected. The
Democratic caucus of the lower house nom
mated Walter Il. Ritter, of Lycoming, for
speaker, and E. B. Kearns, of Pittsburg
for clerk.
The caucus of Republican members of
the house selected G. G. Thompson, of War
rem, for speaker, and Charles Il. Voorhees,,
Of Philadelphia, for chief clerk.
The message of Governor Pattison is
practically review of the operations of the
state government for two years past and
touches upon some three score subjects of
public interest and of official concern. The
state has been bountifully blessed except
by the caamities by flood and fire at Titus-
vile and Oil City and the spirit of insur-
rection at Homestead, where, he says, Gun
der the plea of correcting abuses civil au-
thority was suspended and the officers of
the law were defied To restore and main
tain order the whole military force of the
state was moved. Our cost in this trouble
will not be considered if it be followed by
greater love Of liberty, obedience to law and
support OF the public authorities"
The states receipts for 1892, including
the balance on hand, were S17, ,72S, ,613; the
expenses 81, ~. .98S 6S. leaving balance in
