has not paid the slightest attention t

sons j. G. Hagerm N, Theo Hofer,

within ten feet of the assault swore on

There were two other responsible
witnesses, business men of Budie, Cal.

attendance would Dot be necessary as
the proof Yves SO conclusive. But
this is not the only conclusive evil
dence, The attorneys for the defend
ant, while insisting on Jones' limo
cence, exhausted every legal trick
known to the trade to avoid a trial,
and when everything else failed in tn.
District Court, virtually admitted the
facts in the case by a demurrer
based on the plea that brass knuckles
were not deadly weapons. Failing in
this they carried the case to the
Supreme Court on purely technical
grounds. viz: that the crime was not
in lhe jurisdiction Of the Court and
by this means had it thrown out of
the District Court.
All the while Jones was sqnirming
and weighing 10 find a hole suitable
to crawl through, he vas protesting
his irnoceure to the public and assur-
ing everybody that he was anxious to
vindicate himself. If he was inno-
cent why did he not embrace the op-
portunity Of proving it before a court
OF justice. The case has now been
located for trial in Reno, thereby en-
falling extra expense upon the editor
or the APPEAL, in the hopes that he
will "quit,' We can assure the pub
lie, however, that there is no quit in
this case, and if the case is removed.
on some further technicality to New
York, the editor of the APPEAL will be
there with his witnesses, witnesses
whose testimony will never be ques-
timed by any living man. The
manner in which the Journal comes
to the rescue Of this gang, shows
more than ever the desperate straight
to which they have been driven.
A conviction of a felony means a
solourp in the p~enitentiary for Jones,
and his removal from office means
even worse things for the gang, who
are so anxious to retain him in his
present position. For his continuance
In Office means a mighty safe thing
for them.

ARMY BRUTALITY. :
Dragging q Private by the Heels Not
Censurable.

Dragging q Private by the Heels Not
Censurable.
Chicago, Oct. 12.-Charles Hammond.
the private who was dragged by a
rope tied to his feet from the guard
house at Fort Sheridan to headquar-
ters Of the post, began yesterday noon
to serve IA day sentence of solitary
confinement with bread and water diet
This decision Of the summary court at
Fort Sheridan deals alone with Ham
monds refusal to work as q prisoner.
The finding was returned by Lieuten-
ant Colonel cambridge, who was sit.
ting during the sessions, and was yes
terday approved by Colonel Robert H.
Hall, the commanding officer Of the
post.
Captain lowering, the officer whose
treatment of the rebelious private has
created such storm of discussion in
civic and army circles alike, will un-
dergo no investigation. Colonel Hall as
serts that his subordinate only obeyed
instructions as soldier: that his treat
ment of the prisoner, Hammond, was
wholly excusable under the circum-
stances, and that he would in no wise
censure the captain.
The whole affair will now probably
be reviewed by the general court mar
tial, which will be assembled at the
instance of General Brooke. department
commander. Colonel Hall has for
warded to the latter official statement
of the case, and further charging Ham,
mond with disobeying orders.

tradesmen, headed by the pro-syndic of
Rome and the president of the chamber
of commerce, marched to the Office of
the minister of the interior yesterday

tradesmen, and promised that all pos
sible would be done to promote friendly
relations and greater equity between
the TAX collectors and the taxpayers.
In the meanwhile large crowd Of
people had collected around the min
istry angry shouts were heard, and
some of those present tore up paving
stones and otherwise assumed threat
ening attitude. This caused the police
to make an attempt to disperse the
violent portion of the crowd, and in
the conflict which followed six police
men were injured and one rioter killed.
The mob raised revolutionary cries
while the fighting was in progress,
revolvers were freely used. many per-
sons in the crowd were injured, and a
of the leaders of the disturbance we're
arrested. The condition of three of the
wounded policemen Is serious. The pre-
feet of police has ordered the dissoiu-
ton of the Roman Socialist union.

Chicago, Oct. 12.-The drought just
broken has for severity and wide area
Of country affected never been equalleG
in the period covered by authoritative
record in the country. Crops have suf-
fered fruit has been blasted. fires have
lcaped up as if from spontaneous com
hu"tior in field and woodland. and
every moment of the time since the
middle of August has been crowded
with danger to cities. Farmers have
been hauling water for their stock,
even buying the fluid in many sections
of the country. Many small towns
throughout the country have suffered
severely from fire.
Conservative estimates place the re-
Gu@tOn in acreage Of winter wheat at
% per cent. Thousands of acres through
cut the affected district have not even
been plowcd, the ground being in such
q condition as TO render farm work
next to impossible. To stock raisers
the rain is Godsend. Pastures which
have been dried up for weeks will be
available once more. In many locali-
ties it has been necessary to feed stock
for two or three weeks past.
