A PECULIAR CASE
DISTRICT ATTORNEY HANDLED
IT WITH GLOVES
What Judge ]. N. Phillips Thinks OF
Major Donnell's Action-His
Caustic Comment

The friends of Walter l.. Webb at
tempted to excuse the laxity of the dis
trict attorneys prosecution by the
statement, admitted as true, that Major
Donnell was handicapped by the fact
that Axtell and Adams, who were really
the principal witnesses against Webb,
were, and are, acknowledged perjurers.
1t has been charged by some people that
the district attorney did not want to Sc
cure a conviction. Judge ]. Noonan
Phillips, who has taken an active part
in the prosecution of the Webb case be-
fore the board of education, expressed
himself very emphatically to Herald
reporter last evening when asked what
he thought of the matter:
"It is not my desire to enter into per-
sonal fight with the district attorneys
department, but it seems to me that, If
the prosecution had been as vigorous as
lit should have been, the result of the
case might have been different"
"Then you do not think 1t was vigor-
Gus prosecution at all?"
II was not present at the trial, but
from what l hear of it cannot see how
any person could consider it at all vigor-
Gus, or as vigorous as it should have
been. / have known more vigor to be
shown in the prosecution of some poor
fellow who was charged with purloining
some small article. One incident Of the
lease which appeared to be at least pc
culiar was the reference made by the
district attorney to Axtell and Adams,
who, you will remember, were his own
witnesses. He told the jury indirectly
that they would be indicted for perjury
He did not say that indictments would
be returned, in so many words. You
will remember that he put it something
in this wise: If you will put your ear
to the ground you will hear rumblings
from the grand jury room that may re-
suit in indictments for perjury He
was speaking of Axtell and Adams at
that time, and everybody knew it. Such
a statement to jury from a prosecut-
ing attorney about witnesses for the
prosecution is at least extraordinary.
There was certain corrOborative tes-
timony which was not brought out in the
trial Of the case, and so far as I have
been able to learn there was no effort to
bring it out. 1t was peculiar case, and
the handling Of it was equally peculiar"
