AS IT'S TALKED.

Legal processes arc SOW, very slow.
and necessarily 80. The route through
the courts Is like the Jericho road. IL
isn't the fault Of the judges; they are al
ways on time anu ready for busi-
ness. But the lawyersl Like
the college student who devotes himself
too heartily to baseball, they are always
'unprepared" But it isn't their fault
The witnesses either are not present or
have not been subj 9naed. Then it Is
the fault OF the court clerksf Oh, no, for
all the names OF the witnesses were not
given to the clerks Then IL must surely
be the fault of plaintiff and defendant.
Wrong again. for the litigants haven't
had tim. To give in the names. Wherein
lies the canss Of these daily delays In
the courtsl Leave IL To some wiser
head.
Another thing that strikes me as In
congruous is the time-honored custom In
all courts of swearing jurors TO give a
"true verdict" This would be possible
were jurors infallib 9. but they are
human. aud therefore fallbe. No
doubt jurors strive TO render true ver-
dict. and generally succ ell, but they
may be led astray by the evidence. Why
judgment is true veriicti which is
really what the oath contemplates

brought About by the Uncertainties of
the Money Market
New YORK, May There was evidently
an effort TO create panic yesterday, but it
failed, although the conditions were more
favorable than heretofore or than they are
likely TO be for years. II was the general
belief that most of the selling was forced
liquidation due 10 the inability OF specu-
lation on the bull side to respond to calls
for margins and to large operators being
unable TO take up loans. Money was in
sharp demand and loaned as high as IL per
cent, and in several instances, when loans
were obtained, collateral was rejected and
the collateral sold at sacrifice.
Brokers active in Western UniJn and
Missouri Pacific spoke in the same strain
and said that matched orders had been
used in both stocks for the purpose of
creating "A market in which TO unload, but
that the efforts were unsuccessful Houses
which were disposed TO work on the bull
side liquidated their speculative accounts
some time ago, believing IL impossible to
engineer an advance in the face of the
heavy gold exports and uncertainty pre-
vailing in regard to currency conditions,
and bear traders said that they had COW
cred the last of their shorts a week ago on
the announcement by President Cleveland
that all the United States notes would be
redeemed in gold end the only ira ding
they had done since was 60 sell stocks on
orders from the bull pools who wished to
conce al their operations.
