No WRIT FOR GEM,


chahcellor McCsill refused Is grant q
writ of error in the case Of Paul Genz;
who IS condemned to be hanged in the
Hudson County jail next Thursday for the
killing Of Clara Arnim in Hoboken. about
two years ago.
Counsellor ]. W. Queen and w. s. stuhr
appealed to the Court of Pa1dons. which
met last Tuesday. but the Court refused
TO interfere, and as last resort they
went to the Chancellor.
The point raised by the lawyers was that
q prosecution for murder when the de-
tense is insanity. and the fact that the
killing with deadly weapon is clearly
established, the defendant is entitled to
an acquittai if upon all the evidence there
is no reasonable doubt whether he was
capable in law Of committing the crime.
The Chancellor said that he was bound
TO follow the law established in the
Graves case. which is that the defense Of
insanity may be established by preponder-
aace Of proof; until a different rule is
established he must act according to the
Graves case.
The counselIors for Genz win ask Gov
ernor Griggs for respite until the Kohl
case. now before the Court of Errors and
Appeals. is decided. This case will de-
eide whether a writ Of error is a writ Of
right or of grace.

WANTS PIG IRON COINAGE
Amusing Letter Received by Major
Mckinley.

CANTON. Ohio. July Il, 1Ss6.-Ma Tor
Mckinley was pleasantly interested this
morning in letter from a Georgia man.
A. 2. Hull, of Atlanta, who SAYS he IS
sixteen to one man. but does not want
any half way measures
He says.-I accept the arguments Of
the advocates of free silver and agree
with the remedy 50 far as it goes, but it
does not go far enough. I am in favor of
the free and unlimited coinage of pig iron
at a ratioSof 16 to l by the United States
alone and can prove by the best author-
ity that such policy on our part will
raise prices, put plenty of money in cir
culation, give the honest debtor a chance
to pay his debts. thereby making the
whole country prosperous" The writer
proves by liberal quotations from Bryan
and Senators Jones and Stewart that the
Tree coinage of pig iron and the stamp of
the Government wculd make its bullion
value the same as its mint value
HE also proves by the same authors
ties that there need be no fear Of a con-
traction of the currency, for if gold and
silver should be driven out by the baser
metal there Is plenty of pig iron to take
their places and SO give the people plenty
OF money. He declares that wages would
be compelled to rise because no man
would he fool enough to work for one
dollar day who could make a thousand
dollars day picking up rusty nails and
old horseshoes and taking them to the
mint for coinage.
Major Mckinley was much amused by
this letter and thinks it one of the hap
piest hits evolved by the present situa-
ti0n
