TRIoT COURT CASE.
Says the Judge Decided as6gase without
Waiting for Evidence-Other
side.

EDITOR STAR:-The answer of
Ex-Judge Magoon to my letter in
your issue OF the a5ths.inst is a
feeble attempt to justify the act Of
the new district magistrate in dis
charging from custody the defend
ant Mary Alves without any evi-
dence on her part to explain
the taking of the $40 in gold
from under a mattress where
it had been placed by the prosecut-
ing witness. There was no evidence
that Mary Alves had lost money, or
that her daughter or son-inlaw took
any of her money, or that she sup
ported them In fact what was
complained of was the act of the
Court in discharging the defend
ant without any evidence to ex-
plain why she took money
from place where il has been left
and which did not belong to her,
and in addition she was told that it
did not belong to her or her som
in-law. The felonious intent in
such case can be gathered from
the acts of the defendant, and in
this case let me tell the ex-Judge
there was sufficient evidence not
only to make out a prima taeie case
but to convict this woman of lar
ceny. But the most surprising part
of the whole business was the dis
charge of the defendant on the
mere motion of counsel without
evidence. The record of this case
is open for inspection and cannot
be altered. There was no evil
dence on the part of the defendant.
There was an explicit denial

on the part of the daughter and SON
in-law Of the taking of any of the
defendants money, or that she had
ever complained before she got hold
of the S14o in gold, of having lost
any money. The more this matter
is stirred up and the facts gone into
the worse it will appear. IT this
woman took this money under a
b0na fde claim of right, it was the
duty of the defence to submit the
evidence, but the decision was given
without any such evidence and in
the teeth of the proof of the placing
the money there and taking it from
where it was placed, after being told
to whom it belonged, and the re-
fusal to give it up. Such an act is
larceny under the Hawaiian statute
and at common law. Had the magis-
trate waited and heard the evidence
that the defendant said she had TO
explain her conduct and the Magis-
trate had chosen to believe it
LEX" would not have written the
letter he did, but the decision was
given and was erroneous because it
was not supported by proof of any
kind. The attempt to justify such
decision by saying that private
counsel appeared only proves the
weakness of the attempted justifi-
cation.
The record Of this case will estab-
lish that there was neither malice

A Kentuckian, who is patient in hos
pital In that state, is as blue as a new stove
pipe from the top Of mis- head to the bottom
Of his feet. His finger nails are blue and
so is his tongue, and altogether he is the
bluest man in America The doctors say
that the discoloration Is caused by nitrate
of silver poisoning. Asbridge for years has
been subject to epileptic fits, and took great
quantities of nitrate of silver in order TO
ward them off. This was gradually depos-
tied in the skin, and on exposure to light
turned blackish sort of blue, just as 1t

HARTFORD, Conn, Oct. Flown
elections were held all over the state

Bridgeport, Ansonia, Derby and
Navagatuck, and the results show de-

is believed to be an index to the greater
political battle which will be waged at

headquarters of the Republican state
central committee it was stated that
Mckinley and Hobart would get up

election. Though the elections pre-

both gold and silver Democratic tickets

in the majority. The weather condi-

large vote, but the leaders of both par
ties realized that upon the result of the
elections an estimate for the probable
majority in Connecticut in November
would be formed. and an effort was
made in almost>every town to get out
the fullest possible vote.

Of those who have selfish interests to

forms OF currency, including checks

money, must be counted the same as the
coin basis. though every sound fnanci

ministration in constituting the laws, sill

which is the money of ultimate redemp-

The Wages of Labor.
He might have added, and this point
seems to worry our monometallist
friends, that the wages of laborers rose
considerably faster than the prices of
necessaries. Even SO did they in 1S4S-
66. And why not again? In truth the
wages of more than half our laborers
have got to rise before there can be q
rise in necossaries. Monomerallists have
conveniently overlooked the fact that 60
per cent of the laborers in the United
States do not work for fixed money
wages; they produce, and what they sell
the products for constitutes their wages.
It 10 self evident, therefore, that rise
in the price of the product is itself a
rise in wages. This class includes all

CO growers, vegetable gardeners. fisher
