Maj. Pitcher, says the New York Sun,
for, so far as known, he has never eat

something fierce. He has uttered the
sentence, 1910 or ten days. - the limit al

sistence that it now slips out in his
sleep and his name has now come to be
one to conjure with among all evil
doors. There was such a Judge
in Havana before and if the Cubans
have their way about it there never
will be again. The SUMS Havana letters
have already told of his work and it's
influence upon crime but at that time
