BURNS PERJURY CASE.
Demurrer Is Sustained and Grand
Jury Gets 1t Again.

Judge Willis announced his decision yes
terday on the demurrer interposed to the
ing perjured testimony in the civil suit
against the st. Paul & Duluth Railroad com
pany. The demurrer is sustained.
sented hx Mesrp 81 Me me demurrer as pre-
Mcdonald was that the Indictment did not
state public offense in that it failed to
properly allege that the testimony of the de-
PENDANT was material to the issue involved.
After sust aiming the demurrer, Judge Willis
suggested that the case against Burns ought
to be presented to the grand jury, now in
Mr.. McCafferty objected that, as Burns had
been brought by process of extradition from,
foreign country, he ought to be returned to
that country before once more being pre-
sented to the grand jury.
Judge Willis asked whether Burns was a
citizen Of the United States and was in
opinion that, had he been a citizen of a
foreign country, there would be force in what
counsel suggested. He would hear the argu-
ments of counsel on the point raised tom Dr.
Judge Willis, in the memorandum which
accompanied the order staining the demur-
rer, says
To a great extent, the custom prevails les
pecially in this Western country of giving
judicial sanction to indictments scant. vague
and indeterminate IN their allegations.
prefer the old-fashioned wass of criminal
pleading. The constitutional requirement
cused shall enjoy the right to be informed of
the nature and cause of the accusation, -
ought to receive due reverence and ought to
be faithfully observed. Good faith toward a
citizen officially accused of crime requires
that the Indictment against him shall set
forth directly, logically and completely the
facts upon which the accusation rests The
framing Of the indictment in that manner is
also, of material assistance to the Judge
presiding at the trial, in ruling upon offers of
testimony.
1t is a serious error in pleading, either in
civil actions in criminal causes, to sub
stitute mere conclusions, e. g., 1.-The said
testimony then and there material" etc.,
for plain and certain allegation of the facts
from which the pleader has derived that con-
clusion. II the conclusion be correct and
legitimate the court can reach it as we'll as
the pleader; and 1t then becomes judicial
determination rather than a perfunctory as
sumption that the prosecutor has rightly con-
strued the facts upon which the conclusion
rests.
The indictment in the cause at bar would
be held sufficient by many courts. but seems
to me invalid. The issue to which the testi-
mony. alleged to have been false was di-
rected, should be plainly and succinctly stat
ed, and the relevancy and materially or ir-
relevancy and immaterislity of the alleged
false testimony will then appear pIima fac e
upon the indictment. This is the frank d rect
and scientific course of pleading. conducive
alike to convenience and to justice.

In MenOriaIrl.

On the night of the 25th Of September the
death angel lowered over the home OF the
Scftons in Baltimore city. Without q mo-
ments warning the dread presence swept
down upon that quiet home, and when the
eastern sky grew rosy with the dawn OF
new day, the form Of the beloved husband
and father, John w. Seton, lay cold and
still.
When the news of his sudden demise was
flashed over the wires to the liltle town Of
TAurmont, the many frirnds of the family
were indeed shocked. Here his childhood
days were spent, and the greater part of his
lite until the autumn of "a, when he rcmov.
ed with his family to Baltimore city.
The remains reached Thurmont at noon
on Wednesday, accompanied bv the relatives
and number of friends from the city. The
funeral was preached in the U. b. Church,
Rev. NJ. II Courtney officiating; after which
The body was borne tendcrly to its last rest
ing place in the beautiful cemetery adjoining
the church.
There, close to his old home under the
genial September sky and amid the fragrance
of roses, carnations and lilies the last SOL
emn words were spoken conslgning all that
was mortal of John w. Seton to the tomb
until the morning of the resurrection.
