to the three indictments, contending that
the court should tell tho jury that if Nc
Elhone took the papers mentioned from
their original place Of deposit or from
Turner's room il the library, with felo-
nious intent, that would be larceny. Or.
said Mr.. Davis, If the papers were taken
by the defendant alone or together with
Turner, with felonious intent, that would
also make him guilty of larceny. Mr..
Davis also asked the court to instruct tie
jury that if McElhone stole, took or car
ried the papers away from The library ne
would be guilty under another Of the three
indictments.
Counsel for the defendant objected to the
instructions asked by Mr.. Davis. asking the
court to ir struct the jury as to the great
caution with which they should consider
the testimony of an accomplice, and tnat
it should not be considered unless corroDo-
rated. They also requested the court 10
tell the jury that the Defendants letters
and his disposition of papers not men
toned in the indictments should not be
considered as evidence of the DEFENDANT
theft Of the stolen papers. Whatever ten
dency they might have were the Defendant
charged with receiving stolen goods, KNOW
ing them to have been stolen. In other
words corEsel for the defense submitted
that the indictments really alleged the COM
mission of the common offense of larceny,
and that as the defendant as they claimed.
received the papers from Turner, McElhone
did not therefore, commit the onense OF
larceny.
In reply. Mr. Davis remarked that the
property having been shown to be that OF
the United States, it only became neces-
sary for the prosecution to show It's un-
lawful and felonious appropriation and
that he submitted, the government had
shown.
The Court Instructs the Jury.
Upon the conclusion of the arguments a
recess was taken until 1 o'clock. but owing
to Mr.. Davis required presence in another
court, the case was not resumed until
about an hour later. when Judge Bradley
proceeded to dispose of the asked-for in
structions. Referring to the indictment
charging the defendant with having car
ried the papers away from public office,
the court held that the indictment did not
embrace the alleged offense, and for that
reason the court would instruct the jury to
return a verdict of not guilty to that
enc. The Indictment referring to the New
burgh letter and the Washington diary
said the court, could not be maintained,
because the government had not connected
the defendant with their alleged larceny,
his alleged accomplice, Turner, failing to
say that McElhone took them, or that he
was connected with the theft of them. So
under the Indictment, said the judge, the
jury would be instructed to return verdict
Of not guilty.
The Third Indictment Valid.
The third Indictment, charging larceny,
Judge Bradley held. covered the alleged Of
fense and he directed that the case con-
tinue on that one.
The defense noted an exception to the re-
lection of their second prayer, and Mr..
Laskey opened the case to the jury on be-
half Of the government.

ANSWER THE QUESTIONS.

The Advertiser calls upon THE TIMES
to "Stick to the question:.
In lodging every proposition laid
down by The TIMES, the Advertiser
forces the CONCLUSION that it does not
believe in taking its own advice.
THE TIMES has made and emphasized
a number of statements of fact which
the Advertiser has not explained-for
the good reason that it cannot.
The Advertiser has never told THE
TIMES and the public why, after ex-
tOrting every dollar of its double fees
from the suffering people in 1898, and
making not one cent of reduction On
tax advertisements for any year there
after, it should, as soon as it was de-
prived of the source of its official in
come, become suddenly solicitlOus for
the burdened taxpayers and offer them
a reduced rate.
The Advertiser has never explained
why, in making its offer of reduced
rates for tax advertisements, it did
not include under the operation of it's
charity, the large amount of advertis-
ing then running in its columns, for
which the people have been forced to
pay full rates.
The Advert User has never given the
reason for its delay IN inauguratlng its
"Pas en- PEASANT" column for the con-
veyance of distempered kicks at the
city and county authorities, until after
1t had been dispossessed of its official
patronage.
The Advertiser has never explained
how it could rest content under the
"grievous evils" of the city and coun-
| ty governments while it obtained
financial patronage from them, and
could only find grounds for protest
when that patronage was withdrawn
or about to be withdrawn.
These propositions laid down by
THE TIMES at the inception of the
present discussion have not been an
swered by the Advertiser. They can
not be answered truthfully without a
confession by the Advertiser that its
present course Is solely one of self
interest, and without regard to bene-
filing the general public in any man
ner whatever-a conclusion, however,
which was long ago reached by those
who have watched the frequent dem
onstrations of the grasping nature
, which dominates the afternoon paper.

The old story of PrOmetheus Is a
parable. prometheus was on terms of
intimacy with the gods. From them he
stole fire, and gave it to men. For this
sin he was bound to the rocks of Mount
Caucasus, and vultures were set upon
him. They only ate his liver. This
grew again as fast as it was picked
away. Are his sufferings to be imsg-
ined?
Take modern Interpretation of the
parable. There is no cooking without
fire. In cooking and eating the mis-
chief lies. The stomach is overtasked,
the bowels become clogged, They cannot
dispose of the food that is given them.
The Impurities back up on the liver.
Then comes the vultures- the torments
of diseased liver. DR.. PIerce's Golden
Medical Discovery is more than equal

there Is of hanging ones self. Sold

EnXor LegnIizing Pools.

The Board of Trade of Baltimore has
prepared a memorial which is to be pre-
scented to Congress at once, taking strong
ground favoring the passage of amend
ments to the nterstate-commerce act which
will Iegalize pooling. The memorial pre-
sents two good and sufficient reasons for
the modification of the interstate-commerce
law, one that the desired amendment will
secure uniformity and steadiness in trans
portation rates and the other that it will
enable the railroads under such legallzed
arrang ements for the protection of each
other against unfair competition to add
largely to their earnings, guaranteeing
thereby increased facilities for freight and
passenger service. In commenting on the
necessity of taking such action the eXecu-
tive committee of the Board of Trade OF
that city says: 1T is certain that there
will be no full or permanent return of ma
tional prosperity until something has been
done to relieve the railroads of the country
from the crushing incubus of the antitrust
and interstate-commerce laws as they have
been interpreted and are being applied. The
proStration of the great railroad interests
the greatest single interest in the land-has
been terrible 1t has meant the loss to
thousands of people of millions of dollars
of annual income, and it has unquestion-
ably been a most influential factor in
causing the prolonged hard times from
which we have all suffered, and which we
all deplore. 1t is the plain duty of Con-
sress to give the question most serious
consideration, and final action in the mat
ter cannot be taken too soon.
