Innocent UntiI Proven GuIity.

The public mind should not allow IL.
self to be preiudioed against Albert
Stout by the nonsensical matter which is
being written by space writer's and
printed in papers published in this city
and elsewhere. The st .oe authorities
cannot be held accountable for the vivid
and mercenary imagination Of the men
who would ruin an Innocent man at the
rate OF SEA column. We say innocent,
because Albert Stout ia innocent untii a
jury Of twelve men declare him guilty.
1t is very easy for a space writer to sit
down and write column Of fake clues; !;
to discourse Of fake material witnesses; ;
to whistle an alibi down the winds; TO
portray the beauty and responsibility Of
blonde; to write quarter Of column
on The vince Of prisoner upon behold
ing her and to tell all that the blonde
knows and much besides. Il Is an easy
matter 10 inform tho public that Stout
showed the weakness OF his case by
waiylng a preliminary hearing, and that
'the meshes Of circumstantial evidence
are closing around him day by day
The fact Of the matter Is simply this.
Stout, man who has enjoyed the cons
dence and respect Of large circle OF
friends, is arrested on suspicion OF
having murdered Katie Dugan two years
ago The warrant WAS iasued at the
instance Of the girls mother. who has
been following clue after clue, and whC
believes that Stout is the guilty man
Upon that warrant the state prosecutor
has TO act, regardless Of his own persona
feeling and judgment, and 20 do all tha
an honorable man can do to substantiatl
the charges and secure conviction, /
the grand jury believes that the evidenc
in the hands OF the state i
sufficient to justify the fndin,
OF true bill The state ha
not made its case public; neither has th
defense. Stout is not responsible for th
waving OF the hearing He has place,
his life and character in the hands Of al
able and capable lawyer who alone know
his motives for deferring the hearing un
til Il shall come before jury No man ha
the right to say that Stout is guilty Of thi
horrible crime until the sworn evidenc
is all In, the case argued and the verdic
given.

NOT A BAD TREATY.
GEARY LIKES THE REGISTRATION
PRINCIPLE.
1t Is an Advance Over the Present
Law Tint Bears His Name, and
He Thinks the Trainers Are En-
titled to Great Credit.

Washington, March 26.-Representa
tive Geary, of California, Trainer of the
Chinese registration act, causes some
surprise by coming out in approval of
the new Chinese treaty He does not
agree with those who have argued that
it amounts to an abrogation of the
Geary law, but looks upon it rather as
a recognition of the registration prin-
ciple, which is the feature of the law
that bears his name. He said:
while l believe such laws are JUS
tilted by the spirit and letter of the
old treaties, yet it is idle to ignore the
fact through all our attempts at legis-
lating on the Chinese question, we have
incurred the hostility of very large
number of people in the east who look
upon all Chinese legislation as in bad
faith, because as Yiolatis54 of the trea-
ties between this country and China.
He regards the proposed treaty as
an advance on the present one in til at
it allows total prohibition of, Chinese
immigra ton, while the present treaty
provides only for its suspension. Mr..
Geary says:
THE much-abused registry system is
recognized at last, even by the Chinese
government. This is also a gain for us,
for when the Chinese accept this mode
of identification, their oVer-zealous
friends have no cause to complain"
The California member sums up his
views. Of the treaty as follows:
For this treaty, a few changes
which, 1 have no doubt, will be incor-
porated in it, the administration is en-
titled to great credit, for having finally
settled the Chinese question, and [ con-
ffdently hope such will be the result
If there was nothing to consult but the
sentiment of the Pacific coast, the task
of the administration would be easy in
dealing with the. Chinese question, but
our people must remember the large
Interests represented by the crater hum
Der of people throughout the rest of
the United States in representing the
great financial, political and religious
interests. which are always battling
aginst them. 1t is a cause of congratu-
lation that the administration has had
the courage to recognize as fully IS il
has the wants of the Pacific coast

Washington, March 26.-General
Coxey's army of the commonweal has
been no more successful in attracting
to itself miscellaneous aggregation
of celebrities than was the Pollard
Breckenridge trial today.
In front row, opposite the jury, sat
the governor of Indiana and several
members of his staff, who had come
to Washington to see the sights and
who gaZed earnestly upon the silvery
beard of the Kentucky orator, newly
cropped over Sunday, with express
sions which betokened that they had
not journeyed here in vain.
Behind them was Captain Phillip
King, of the Princeton university
baseball team, supported by his war
riors, athletes whose names are known
throughout the land.
Further in the background was the
usual mixed audience with a select
sprinkling of Congressman, who come
and go with every day of the trial.
is outlawed from the court room, but
after the court had adjourned, two
faShionably attired women slipped in
at a side door under the guidance of d
bailiff and stood for five minutes star
ing at Col. breckenridge, who sat in
consultation with his lawyers, as child
rem are accustomed to stare at the
animals in a menagerie.
In the objections to the dispositions
for the defense, both sides were even.
Judge Bradley excluded several and
expressed regret that he had not power
to squash them all, because of their
needless obScenity. Being a staunch
Presbyterian, moreover, he suggested
that the newspaper men should ex-
punge their reports in the interest of
public morality.
