THE LATTIMER MURDER TRIAL
SHERIFF MARTINS CASE IN THE
HANDS OF JURY.
Judge Woodward's Charge Favorable
to Acquittal-only One Point
Named to Establish Guilt.

Wilkesbarre, Pa. March S.-The court
room WIS crowded today when ex-
States Attorney General Palmer began
his argument for the defense in the
trial of Sheriff Martin and his deputies.
Mr.. Palmer said there were three prop
ositions in this case: First, that there
was rioting in and around Hazelton
from the 3rd to the 10th of last Sep
TENDER; second, that Sheriff Martin was
called TO HaZelton to suppress this riot
ing; third, that the mob which marched
to Lattimer was riotous, law-breaking
and disorderly.'
He argued that if the jury believed
the sheriff had given, by direct COM
mand or previous instruction, the order
to fire, then the deputies could not be
found guilty of any crime, as they
obeyed the order of their superior Of
ficer, who was the supreme power at
the time. He said:
IF -or frd that the strikers were
riotous; that they refused to obey the
orders of the sheriff; that the sheriff's
lie or the deputies lives were in dan
'ger, then the shooting was justified, and
neither the sheriff nor the deputies can
be held"
District Attorney Martin made an adj
dress to the jury soon after o'clock.
After reviewing the conditions prevail
ing in the region previous to the con-
fiicts at Lattimsr, Judge Woodford took
up the incidents Immediately preceding
the shooting. He said it was certainly
sure that the great body of strikers
failed to obey the sheriff when he or
dered them to dispense, and insisted on
pushing on. Nor could IL be doubted,
he said, that the sheriff had the lawful
right TO issue the order, and if it was
the right of the sheriff to command the
crowd to dispense, then it was the duty
of the crowd to obey his command.
IF the sheriff orders me to stop and
I proceed, 1 do so at my peril" said
the judge. THE sheriff's duty
is to preserve order. and not to OBJ
serve it, it would follow that the in
tended object was not a criminal or
unlawful one
In conclusion the judge stated that
the most, if not the only material ques-
tons for the jury TO decide We're, first,
as 10 the number of men who sur
rounded the sheriff after his effort to
arrest one of the strikers, and, second,
as TO the firing, whether it was con-
tinued after the ranks of the strikers
had broken and they were in retreat, or
whether it ceased when the volley was
fired. 1t was question whether the
men shot in the back received their
wounds while running away or while
they surrounded the sheriff with their
backs toward his posse.
The settlement of these disputed
points, the court instructed. might be
important as bearing upon the ques-
ton whether the posse comitature, O. ig-
inally a legally constituted body. did
not become an unlawful assemblage by
reason of any subsequent determina-
ton to disregard the law and commit
crimes.
The jury then retired to deliberate.
At 9 o'clock the jury, not having re-
ported, Judge Woodward adjourned
court until tomorrow morning.

SENIOR DU Bose ON AFFAIR.

iaston. when seen at the Spanish lega-
ton today, and asked as to the present
status of affairs. said:
Notwithstanding the apparent agi-
tation. 1 am gratifed to note that so
far as actual occurrences are concerned,
they are adjusting themselves natural
~ and IN a manner NEST satisfactory
to both governments. The Lee Incl
dent is closed. if, indeed, it was ever
opened. at most it was a misappre-
hension of what actually occurred.
Il am directly authorized by Senior
Gullon, the minister of foreign affairs,
to deny that any. demand or request
has ever been made for the recall of
Consul General Lee, and it is Unfortu-
nate and misleading for the reports to
be printed that Spain has withdrawn
a request or demand never in fact
made. The entire matter appears to
have arisen out''of some suggestion as
to the propriety of certain conduct,
Just as any official action relating to
the two governments may be discussed
in friendly spirit, and with TO thought
of evertualities on the subject. But
in any event, the incident is closed and
mas no TURNER gearing on the general
condition. of affairs. The matter of
sending relief supplies to Cuba in war
ships is also satisfactorily adjusted
and. so far as il amounted to an Incl
dent, it also, is closed. These are the
two passing occurrences which have
appeared to awaken agitation, and be-
ing closed. l cannot see any substantial
reason for further agitation

is concerned, diplomatic etiquette pre-
cludes my discussing ii. But I may say
unofHcially, that-it seems to be q quite
natural result from the undue import

dents. now closed. In normal times
these passing incidents of the day
which are inevitably to diplomatic in
tercouTse between nations-could not
be seized upon by the radical branch
Of the press TO in1lame public opinion.
Back of these passing incidents is
the vital Cuban problem, toward which
Spain has resolutely set her face TO
adjust by giving the Cuban people the
most complete control of thsir internal
affairs. I know with what profound So
licitude Premier Sasasta and his asso-
ciates are seeking to accomplish the
peace and prosperity CT Cuba on a
basis alike honorable to the island and
to the mother country. and through
such heroic efforts 1 feel confident that
an honorable settlement will result and
peace be restored"

Just ss firmly established by the ex-

positive fact that Hoods SarSapariila
is ''far and away" the best blood puri-

III, necessity is found in the i'm
pure condition of The blood at this
season, owing to the close contine-
ment and breathing vitiatcd air in Of
Gee store, shop, house, schoolroom
or factory: excessive eating and drink
ing too rich and hearty food; late
hours and social indulgences. With
the blood thus thick ard impure, the
machinery of life grinds hard.
Hoods Sarsaparilla purifies, vital
ICES and enriches the blood, builds w
and strengthens the nerves and tones
the stomach. 1t oils up the machinery
of the whole body; the liver takes up
its work anew, the kidneys resume
activity, the ache goes out of the back,
the bowels are regulated, the appetite
restored, the food is relished and as
