not much damage was done to the

1t has been reported to us from a
reliable source that the report of
Expert Mckenzie is in the hands of
County Judge Stearns, or was in
his hands some ten days or two
weeks ago; that this report was
exhibited to certain parties in New
port at that time. If this repore be
true, then it is an outrage and a
diabolical farce upon the people of
Lincoln county. 1t is fact that is
we'll known that there has been
and is now fight between the
county judge and the clerk and
sheriff. If this expert, socalled,
has made a report and has placed it
in Judge Stearns' hands, then it is
no report at all that the people will
have any confidence in. 1t will oe
Ono sided and prejudiced. We do
not have the least idea what the
report contains, and we don't care.
But we do know that for a good
share of the time that the county
has been run that Judge Stearns
mas been one oil its officers, and his
official acts should be just as much
a subject of an experts report as
any other of the county officers.
There would be just as much sense
in putting the report in the hands
OF the clerk or the sheriff. We also
know during the last two or three
weeks that the expert worked that
Judge Stearns also worked with
him, called off figures, etc., and a
part of this work was done behind
locked doors. A fair and impartial
report by fair and impartial man

casion, no limited, and that not obscurely, that
the real fault lay with his brigade generals.

When military men take to writing about cur

case In the present Instance. Barntieri's friends,
both In the press and in the army, have been In
dustriously spreading tho report that this book
will beat Caesars Commentaries and other

intrinsic merits. 1t will give all the facts that
have been heretofore concealed from the public

Recently, Gen. Albertone had himself placed
on the retired list OF the Italian Army. with tho
purpose-it was then supposed-of being free to
challenge Prince Henry of Orleans. Now, how.

that he might be in a position to deal effectively
with Baratieri's charges against him when
made. The book Is now about to be published.
and there Is little doubt that its appearance will

anything like what current reports say they are.
There 10 also a possibility that many OF the other

at present under So. 500 bail for examination on
Wednesday.
1t was on the evening OF Sept. II. while dress
Ing for dinner. which she was giving on board
the Scythian, that Miss Day discovered her loss.
The jewel box. which she kept locked in the
chifionier In her boudoir. was empty when she
opened 1t to get the jewels. She could not re-
member when she had last opened the box. but
was almost sure that the jewel bag which t con-
tanned had been put back. A detective agency
ing articles, as near as Miss Day and her maid
could remember them, was furnished:

Ba pin set with thirteen S..carat diamonds.
Curved bar pin with one si1'carat diamond and
Col brooch with larg. amethyst set in small dia,

the cabin boy told him the circumstances OF the
robbery as follows: While cleaning the lamps n

Il contained diamonds. s ippins the sack into
his pocket. he brought it TO this city and pawned

He was turned over TO the milestone authori-

he pleaded not guilty before Justice McKenna.
Before his arraignment he wastakcn aboard the

him, but failed TO get any information from him.
