The CASE CLOSED.
Decision on Stain-CromweII
Case Eagerly Awaited.
Petitioners Rely Greatly on Strength
Of Evidence for AIibi.
De .Ision Expected at The Meeting to Be Held.
Dec. g.!

The case is closed. The evidence is
IN ana the arguments completed after
four long and weary sessions and it is
now for the Governor and Council to
decide whether David l.. Stain ana
Oliver Cromwell shall finish out their
days in State prison, or be allowed to
walk among their fellows as free men,
The decision is expected at the next
meeting. Dec. 81.
1t has been long and trying hear
ing. marked with eloquence sound rea-
Sonlng and enough of disputes to en-
llVen things up n little. 1t was neces-
Sary to go into the details of this cele-
brated case in order to bring out the
slightest point and for that reason
much time was spent over matters that
would seem of but slight importance
did they not involve the fact of two
lives
1t is now % years and over since the
Dexter Bank was robbed and Cashier
John Wilson Barron was found, bound
gagged and all but dead in vault
twenty-five years is q long time but
during the entire period the Dexter af-
fair and matters that resulted there
from have been before the public.
Friends have parted and families have
been divided because of a difference of
opinion. As one of the counsel said,
yesterday, it is probably the most
celebrated case in criminal jurispru-
dence.
Both sides of the hearing have been
conducted with the greatest skill and
s2Sacity. Congratulations have poured
in upon Lewis A. Baker, whose youth
bellies his ability. A heritage of ability
from his grandfather, who defended
the prisoners at Bangor in 1883, is his
birthright. He was associated with
William H. Drury of Boston, whose eX-
perence and quickness rendered him
of great value to the petitioners. Bert
ram l.. Smith, county attorney of
Penobscot county, conducted the case
for the government with all the ability
of trained lawyer. Mr.. Smith met
the strong case of the attorneys for the
petitioners with a dauntless spirit and
quick and stable judgment.
A large number of spectators have
been present at the hearing and the
verdict will be eagerly awaited Each
side was allowed two hours, yesterday.
for the arguments. Mr.. Drury opened.
taking up an hour, Mr.. Smith fol-
lowed. speaking for two hours and Mr..
Barker closed the hearing with an ar
gument of one hours duration.

understand that the colored men We're
not to be put to work today, but as
they were assembled at the office we
resolved to quit"
The men claim that they do not OBJ

when it comes to them as handling the
same tools they thought it was too
much to ask.

operate the plant with colored help,
and a number of white men at the

Detective Crippen, Of the Delaware
and Hudson company, did a clever
piece of work yesterday in bringing
two culprlts to justice in less than five
hours after it became known that q
theft had been committed at the Avoca
station. When the agent, G. w.
Lower, went into the office he found
the door lock of the ticket Office broken
and discovered that several tickets to
Atlantic City, together with a large
number of local tickets, were taken.
Looking about, he found a bunch of
keys, which afterward played an i'm
portant part. Fowler Curl, superin-
tendent at the silk mill, happened
along, and identified one of the KEYS
of the silk mill among the bunch. Pat
rick Clifford, young man on the West
Side and who formerly worked at the
mill, was at once suspected. He Is a
mischievous lad, and having Travelled
extensively has gained a considerable
amount of knowledge which only could
be found out by travelling in bad COM
pany. Detective Crippen went to the
home of Clifford's grandparents and
found him there. He is a cripple and
is obliged to carry a crutch. When
told what he was wanted for, he began
to show the white feather and when
shown the keys he Acknowledged that
they belonged to him and also that he
was guilty. He named Patrick Kane
as his accomplice, who at the time was
at work in the mines. Kane was ar
rested, but denied his guilt. Clifford
gave up several tickets to Atlantic
city. They We're stamped, and they
even took time to change the seal from
the llth to the 18th. He also had sew
eral local tickets which were stamped.
They We're given a hearing in Wilkes
Barre, and in default of bail were
committed to iail.
