Islander alleged to have been uttered on
the 22d of September, 1891. The alleged
slanderous words are "She is a ID old
w." meaning the plaintiff, and mean
ing that she had committed the crime of
adultery, being a married woman. The
plaintiff is II years Of age and is daugh-
ter Of the late Elisha S. Case Of Readfeld,
who died, Sept. /, 1894.
She now lives at the homestead in Read
field, but for % years prior to June, 1894,
she resided in Boston, with the exception
Of few years when she lived in the West.
She says that her father died under
suspicious circumstances and that very
soon after his burial she sought Coroner
VIM. II. Libby in connection with the
matter, requesting him to investigate.
She says that he did investigate, and saw
the defendant, who lives at Readfeld, and
then in a conversation with the coroner,
the defendant spoke the slanderous words
set out in her writ This charge of the
defendant she maintains was untrue, and
by reason of the statement she has been
injured in her reputation, and her neigh
bors and acquaintance have Stunned her
in consequence.
The defendant is a farmer living at
Readeid, rs years of age, and married to
II grand niece of Elisha Case. He claims
that the plaintiff was seeking to fasten
upon respectable and innocent members
of her family the crime of murder, and by
her persistent efforts created public discus
sion; that he was intimately acquainted
with the old gentleman and on very
friendly terms with him. and he felt in
dignant that his remains should be dis
turbed after burial that he met Coroner
Libby in Augusta and was told by him
that poison had been found in the remains
of Mr.. Case; that he was surprised and
became somewhat excited and in answer to
an inquiry of Mr.. Libby as to what he
knew about Mrs. Haynes said he was
astonished to think anybody should take
any stock in what the woman said; that
he knew her in Boston, % years ago, and
her reputation was bad and she was a
prostitute, referring to the past and not to
the present.
The defendant also claims that she has
in fact in the community where she lives,
a bad reputation for moral worth that
the man with whom she is now living she
Is not legally married to, because she has
never obtained divocre from her hus-
band, who went away in 1890, and that
she has admitted that she does not even
know whether he Is dead or alive, and that
therefore the Interpretation put upon his
language to Coroner Libby, in the writ,
that she was guilty of the crime Of
adultery, is true in fact.
The plaintiff rested his case at 3 30 and
tho defence was opened 30 witnesses being
sworn, 10 of whom had been examined
whom court adjourned

HARD MONEY PARTY.
senator Hin Declares II to BE tie Ca
altsrable Position of Democrats.


ALBANY, March l6-Senator Hill last
night made the first political speech on
state issues since his campaign last fall.
The occasion was the dinner of the Mills
club. During long eulogy on Jackson
Senator Hill said:
jackson was the conspicuous champion
OF hard money; tho Democratic party be-
lieves that the government has 4 constitu-
tional right to make anything ipt gold
and silver legal tender for the ayment
Of debts. Nothing else can be money.
There may be paper currency used for con-
venience and used by common consent, re-
decmable in coin, but that Is not the
money intended by the constitution.
THE Democratic position Is that the
greenback currency is a debt against the
government and should be gradually re-
deemed, paid off and eliminated. There
are those, however, protesting our faith
In some portions Of the country, who need
to be reminded that the Democratic party
is not greenbaok psrty-a money party
and never has been; bat. on the contrary.
