Comment on Howard Case.
Louisville, KY, Sept. 1.-THE Courier-
Journal says:
..The verdict in the Howard case
following that against Caleb Powers, Is
a significant commentary on tbs con
siention that the arrest of the alleges
conspirators for the murder OF Goebel
was purely a political move and mere
5lyStfle persecution of innocent men. Two
juries of good men. divided as TO poll
tics and living in different counties.
have decided that the commonwealth
has got at least two of the guilty men.
These conclusions have been reached
after long and patient investigation, in
which the defendants have had the Gid
of able counsel and of an array of Wit
nesses most of whom We're evidently
eager to testify in their behalf.
THE juries that tried these men We're
not partisan, their verdicts We're not
partisan They listened for weeks with
exemplary patience TO the evidence and
not one of them had a reasona bic doubt
of the guilt of either of the accused.
The decisions of the two juries es-
la biish# the fact that there>was a con-
spiraey To murder Goebel. that Powers

the purpose of this conspiracy Was ac-
seomplished. Yetmen who do not know

Gience who did not listen TO the arsu-

MAY RELEASE PRISONERS.

seventy Per Cent of Joliet Conyfcts
May Go Free.
Chicago, Spt. 27.-Seventy five Per
cent of tht. prisoners of Joliet and Ches-
ter penitentiaries Viii be released If the
decision of Judge Hanecy last Tuesday
IN the habeaS corpus case of Joseph
sWyman is fully taken advantage of.
Warden Murphy and other officials OF
the northern Illinois penitantiary looked
up the record of 3every prisoner Of that
institution yesterday and estimated
that 10 men now held in Joliet would
regain their freedom by petitioning the
courts on the same technicaIity that
freed Wyman.
The court held in that case that in
asmuch as the mittimus by which WV
man was sent 70 prison did not specifi-
caily state that he had been found
guilty of the murder of Wiihe,mina
Dunger he could not legally be near
.cerated. In rendering his opinion the
court said:
There never was a valid form Of
mittimus which did not cite the crime
for which the prisoner was held. No
mans liberty, no matter how guilty he
may be, should be restrained by infer
ence."
The state tried to show that the cap
ton OF the mittimus which read '.in-
.dictment for murder" should be inter-
preted as part of the writ, bu; this,
the court held, was Illegal The only
prisoners who will not be affected, 1t is

with The construction they put on the
note When it was first made public. The
Times aditorially. Sept. 49, declared the
German government had laid down that
the punishment of the real authors of
the attacks on Europeans must be a

Thought by any OF the European papers
lio be the logical result OF the powers
fagreeing to their surrender TO be prece-
jsdent To the negotiations. The British
iauthorities discredit the report that
lGermany will present an ultimatum 10
China. and Intimate that Ii was proba-
IDLY connected at Shanghai with the OBJ
iject Of causing friction between Ger
many and Great Britain, thus delaying
united action. The officials Of the Ger
Imam embassy declare the "ultimatum

THE reports We receive here daily show
that there is more dissatisfaction among

The arrangements for the fair and

of the New City Band in the Olsten

mencing May Z, have been completed,
and are very elaborate. The boys who
belong to the band are working very
hard to make the affair a grand sue

James Mavan, of Queen street, West, is

The government is supplying blan-
kets and doing all in it's power for the
comfort of the sufferers.
The Ottawa Insurance Company, a
new institution, will be a heavy loser
on the fire. All the Canadian compa-
MES and some of the English and
American companies are interested.
A prominent lumberman who is not
interested himself placed the losses for
lumber piles at from four to five mil
lion dollars.
This is thought to be a low estimate,
as the Export Lumber Company alone
has lost nearly one million dollars.
The same lumberman estimates the en-
tire loss at about SIS, 900, 900.
A.. T. Wood, M. P, of Hamilton, a
prominent business man, considers that
when all the losses were made up they
/ would be nearer $50, 000, 900.
At midnight the fire was completely
under control. j. R. Booths principal
lumber yards at st. Louis dam have all
been saved. But from that part north
to the Ottawa river, almost everything
is consumed. 1t is almost impossible
tonight to get individual losses.
