SAVED BY A rECHNICALITr.
William Gillian Was Tried on Charge
of Murder and Acquitted.

The trial Of William Gillian, who was
charged with the murder Of William n.
Tyler, took place in the hastings court
yesterday. The accused was found not
guilty by the jury and acquitted on a
technicality.
When the murder was committed on
Byrd Island last spring Gillian was IN
dicted for the killing Of William J. Tyler.
The case was postponed from time TO
time, and was first heard during the
November term of the court. Coroner
Taylor. who was the first witness for the
Commonwealth, then testified that the
inquest had been held on the body of
William n. Tyler.
Gillian was therefore acquitted from
the charge against him. but the Common
wealth had him at once reindicted. this
time for the killing of William n. Tyler.
1t appears that Tyler was known under
both names, but ell the witnesses Of the
Commonwealth had known him as Will
liam y. Tyler. and no proof could be
secured at the time TO the effect that he
was known by two names.
The Court yesterday instructed the jury
that there is at present a law in exist
ence to the effect that when "A prisoner
is arraigned for an offense committed
against any one. and is acquitted, unless
IL is proved in the first trial that the
party was known equally as we'll by
two names. he could not be convicted,
and II at the second trial it is proven
that he was known as well by both
names, then he cannot be convicted. be-
cause he has been once in jeopardy.
The case was fought hard by the at
torney of the Commonwealth. but the
Jury found a verdict in accordance with
the instructions of the Court.

PardOned hy the G0yernor.7

Governor Mckinney yesterday pardoned
John A. Blackwell, who in May last, in
Washington county. had been sentenced
to three years imprisonment in the peni-
tertiary for voluntary manslaughter
In giving the reason for his action the
Governor states: 1.-The prison records
show that John A. Blackwell has been a
fairly gooc prisoner. There were many
circumstances to excuse his act, and l
now well see how jury mighl with pro-
priety have found him not guilty"
His pardon is recommended by the judge
who presided at his trial, by the attorney
of the Commonwealth who prosecuted,
by numerous citizens OF the county. and
by the Superintendent and Surgeon to the
Virginia penitentIary."
Major b. w. Lynn said yesterday, after
the pardon had been handed to him in
the Governors office, that he was very
glad Governor Mckinney had granted the
pardon. A few days ago he received a
very sweet letter from Blackweil's sweet
heart stating that they would have been
married already. IL ii had not been for
the Imprisonment.

A NOTABLE SPEECH.

Until Mr.. Cleveland put Mr.. Fairchild
into his Cabinet the country at
large knew little of him. He
made most acceptable Secre-
tary of the Treasury. but he had no
notable opportunities for showing the
world the metal of which he was made.
But the speech which he delivered at the
Democratic banquet "Wednesday night, re-
ported in The Times of yesterday in full.

In America.
in dealing with our currency system Mr.
Fairchild discussed it philosophically and
justly. when he said, in substance, that
the philosophers stone OF finance is the
cardinal doctrine of Demccracy-liberty
TO the individual TO do as he pleases so
long as he respects the rights of all other
men. He argued that the Government has
no more right, in the nature of things, to
interfere with the liberty Of one citizen to
issue such promissory note as he pleases,
and Of another citizen TO take that prom
issory note If he pleases, than It has to
interfere with two citizens In making any
other arrangement between themselves
that they think will be to their mutual
advantage. This naturally led him TO
declaring I'm the most emphatic manner
that he thought the tax OF ten per cent.
on the issues Of notes by State banks
should be repealed. He thought This be-
cause the act is not legitimate use of
the taxing power conferred on Congress
to raise revenue. but an abuse of II, TO

Mr.. Fairchild got his ideas from The

between the views which he expressed
upon this subject and those which The
Times has advocated that proves that
they think very much alike. Perhaps the
