MOLINEUX lis DISCHARGED.
Justice Williams Says He Was Held
on Impr0per ENidence.

Justice Williams at Watertown. y. \,
last night handed down his decision In the
motion made to discharge the indictment
against Roland B. Molneux. charged with
sending poison to Harry Cornish. which
caused the death of Mrs. Adams in New
York last December. Justice Williams dis
misses the indictment on the ground that
other than legal evidence was received and
considered by the grand jury, and directing
that the case be resubmitted to the grand
fury now sitting or to the next grand jury
that shall sit in New York.
In part Justice Williams opinion is as
follows:
THE minutes of the grand jury show that
evidence was given by the witness Cornish
which would have not been permitted by
the court relating to the relations between
himself and defendant. which was only I'M
portant on the question of motive.
''Inasmuch as the evidence given before
the coroner by the defendant, and which
was before the grand jury, showed that
unfriendiy relations existed between the
parties II would not seem that the evidence
of Cornish, which is objected to, could have
any material influence with the grand Jury.
More serious questions are raised by the
claim made by the defendant that all eVi-
dence before the grand jury by handwriting
experts based upon comparison Of the DIS
puted handwriting with alleged genuine
handwriting of the defendant and genuine
handwriting, was illegal and improper

Told by One of the Participants in the


A dispatch from Charleston, S. c., last
night says: Two of the governments most
important witnesses testified in the Lake
City lynching ca Sc in the United States cir
cult court here today. They were j. 2.
Newham, one of the men who turned
states evidence, and NJ. w. Springs, BIZ
cycle mender, who swore that one of the
defendants asked him to join the mob that
killed Postmaster Baker.
Newham is a white man of ordinary in
telligeuce, but says he cannot read and
since he turned states evidence he has
been provided for in Washington. On the
stand today he swore that he met Stokes,
Epps, Webster, Alonzo Rodgers, defend
ants, and others at Stokes store. Stokes
to the post office and kill Baker when he
came out. 1t was agreed to do this Mon
day night.
At that time the men named, with Nc
knight, Ward and others, went to the place.
He and Early z. Lee set fire to the place,
while the others hid in the bushes and fired
into it. NEWMAN was rgidly croSS-queS-
toned but stuck to his original story.
Springs said Stokes tried to get him to
go to kill Baker. but he refused to do so.
Springs was being cross-examined When
court adjourned, on account of the illness
of Juror Murphy.
The case made out by the government to-
tlay was a strong one. There are nearly
100 more witnesses to be examined, but
around which the others will revolve- New
ham declared he did not see defendants
Kelly, Rodgers and Clark in the mob that
killed Baker.

ATTACK PHILIPPINE COMMISSION.
Hong Kong Junta Criticfses PrOcia-
nation Lately Issued.

A dispatch from Hong Kong says: The
Filipino junta here regards the proclama-
ton of the United States Philippine COM
mission as being objectionable and has is
sued a grandiloquent statement to the ef-
feet that it is a tissue of generalities,
bristles with Pharisaism and cant, vaguely
promises much and grants nothing to the
Fflipinos. who are tired of promises and
surfeited by Spanish promises similar to
the American"
Continuing, the statement reads: THE
proclamation proves that the fair promises
of independence under a protectorate and
President McKinley's declaration Of the OBJ
jects of the Spanish war were only a mask
of humanitarianism to cover the real in
tention. The invitation of the United States
Philippine commissioners to the Filipinos
to meet them for an exchange of views is
meaningless, as during the hostiities the
representative Filipinos are necessarily alb
sent from Manila, assisting the struggle
for independence.
THE Filipinos continue to resist a violent
and aggressive usurpation, not because
they expect complete victory, but to en-
phasize their rights and to protest against
a ruthless invasion.
I'VE emphatically deny that the aims of
the American government have been misin-
terpreted. The proclamation of General
Otis showed those aims clearly. We also
deny the legality of the sale of sovereignty
over the Philippines by Spain, and we reit-
crate positively that the Americans began
the hostilities on February A.

FAVOR AMERICAN pRorEcToRATE.
Better Class of FfIipiBOs Distrust
Native Government.

A dispatch from Manila last night says;
The United States Philippine commission is
hearing the leading residents OF various ma
tfonalities, priests and Speniards, numbers
of them appearing voluntarily, on the SUBJ
tect of the future of the islands. The ques-
tions put to all are:
do you believe the Filipinos are capable
of self-government in the townships?
DO you believe the Ftlipinos are capable
of f-government In the provinces?
DO you believe the Fflipinos are capable
of self-government in the archipelago
All of those who have been interrogated,
including Filipinos who sympathize theo-
retically with independence, have replied
to the third question, with remarkable
unanimity, in the negative. Independence,
they say, would result in chaos, endless
tribal wars and European Intervention.
A few of them think that provincial self
government is practicable, but most OF
them favor self-government In the town
ships with a form OF American supern-
sion, protecting the inhabitants against the
peculations and extortions which their ex-
perience with the Spanish regime has led
them to consider the natural perquisites of
officialdom.
The commercial classes urge the sending
of detachments of American troops. each
numbering about 100 men, to take possess
sion Of the towns in the southern provinces
and in the Visayas Islands. now held by
small bands of Tagalos. They declare the
natives find the Tagalo oppression worse
than Spanish oppression and that they VIII
welcome the Americans. The case of the
Inhabitants of Gubat, In the province OF
Sorsogon. is cited as typical instance.
The Spanish taxes amounted to S1S,000 but
the rebel Tagalos extort SILL, 600 from the
people of Gubat.
Aguinaldo's brother-in-law, the provincial
governor, is said to be despoiling the peo-
pie numerically.
General Luna, who retired from the COM
manQ of the EilfnYo hn
editing a newspaper at San Francisco del
Monte, his retirement being due to the
fact that the Filipinos rebelled at his rigid
discipline, has been recalled to the conn
mand. This is taken as showing that the
rebel army is only kept together by harsh
measures.
