THE WAR IN KOREA.
Eli T. Sheppard's Lecture at Pho.
neer Hall.

neer Hall.
THE Chinese army is making use OF the
tactics adopted fully 5000 years ago. 10
other words, they have not advanced one
step in the art of warfare since long before
Confucius walked the earth"
LII these few words the large audience
which assembled at Pioneer Hall last
evening to listen to Eli I. Sheppard's lee
ture on THE War In Korea" was made to
understand why the armies of the MIkado
were enabled t. vanqulsh their Monaghan
DelghbOTs in every engagement since the
commencement Of the present hOstillties
in the Orient.
1t was the first OF the seventh annual
course of Lick lectures and was most in
teresting. The speaker was thoroughly
familiar with his subject. having spent
many years in the Japanese service. Con-
sequently bis views on the present trouble
in the Orient were par tcularly interesting.
Mr.. Sheppard prefaced his subject by
desert bing briefly the causes leading I'D to
the complications now existing and then
entered into description of the modes of
warfare now in use by the japanese and
Chinese armies. The former nation. he
sald, was progressive, patriotic aud war
like, while the latter was ignorant. slo w
in adopting advanced ideas and devoid of
patriotism.
Alter plcturing the two armies at some
length the speaker concluded by stating
that, IN bis opinion, the Present war would
end In nothing, lnasmucR as China would
eventually call upon some of her interested
allies to interfere and Japan would be
obliged TO deSist.

RIORDAN'S CHECK.
A. j. Smith Tells How 1t
Was Obtained.
The Story of Miscarriage of Jus
tiCe-The Lawyer DenOunCes
Inspector Williams.

Attorney T. D. Riordan was not in evil
dence at the Cust0m-house yesterday. The
story told at his expense by \. j. Smith
was on every tongue. accepted as truth by
some. but received with incredulity by
others. Riordan emphatically denied that
he had ever given a check to Smith to
bribe a witness or for any other purpose,
but said he would look through his books.
He denounced Smith and Inspector Will
liams as men unworthy of belief. and ex-
pressed surprise that the Collector should
repOse any faith in them.
Smith declares that he will produce the
check which he said Riordan gave t, bribe
a witness, and will hand it to the Collector
within day or two.
This" he said, sis the story of that
check: On April 8, 1888. $50 tins of
| opium were seized In the Pacific Free
and Front street. They were received at
the warehouse in three eases marked
| household goods and were called for as
such by Chinaman named HO Jung, who
produced a shipping receipt showing that
he was authorized 10 remove the goods.
"One week prior TO the appearance OF
Ho Jung and his shipping receipt a steve
dore named Morris O'Brien informed
the customs authorities that the three
cases contained opium, and when the
Chinese showed the receipt Deputy Sur
veyor FOgarty sliced the boxes and ar
rested the claimant
"Ho Jung was examined by United
States Commissioner Southland Hoffman
on April %. and l gave evidence against
him, but NJ TITS O'Brlen, the other wit
ness, was kept in the background. He
had received $500 from Riordan, who was
Ho lungs attorney, and cid not appear.
The Chinese was acquitted.
''RiOrdan was going to give O'Brien a
check on his banker tor $500, but the lat
ter declined to receive il on the ground
that he knew no one who would identity
him. He asked Riordan 20 give him an
order for the money on me, for | was then
cashier for GOodali, Perkins 81 Co.. and
the firm could collect the money from
Riordan's bank. The lawyer consented
and the check was written and passed to
ME. gave O'Brien the money and turned
in the check as cash."
While Smith is looking for the check
and other evidence against Rinrdan the
latter is looking up Smiths record, which
he intlmateS Is a part OF the records of the
Police Court He is also looking up the
antecedents OF Inspector Williams and
says he can prove that Williams is the son
of a Chinese sailor and on certain occa-
sion swore that he had no Monaghan blood
in his veins. Startling revelations are
promised by all concerned in the scandal.

wiiI Prendcrgast Hang Today.

CfHcAGo, July l3.-Patrick Eugene Prendergast, the murderer of Mayor Carter H. Harrison, was adiudged sane and responsible for crime by a jury in the Criminal Court on July ,, and he is now under sentence to be executed today. With respect to the law Prendereast now stands sen fenced to be hanged today and there is nothing to prevent it. One jury has found him guilty of mur- der and another jury has decided that he was in his right mind at the time he committed the crime. All there is to be done now is for Sheriff Gilbert to execute the sentence fixed by Judge Payne There is clear sail ing for Il hanging and unless the lawyers for the defense attempt to secure a change in the last judgment of the court by taking out u writ of error with the hope of getting a new trial. It is contended that there can not be an appeal taken from an in- sanity judgment, and it is not very likely that Judge Payne will grant a new trial, no matter what argu- ments the counseis for the defense may present. Prendergast has had two fair trials of the law and evil denec. He has been defeated in hoth and the law will now undOnbt- edly take its course.
