Weeks Outlines Course He VIII Pur-
sue in MoIineux Case.
New York. Feb. 12.-The Tribune to-mor-
row will say:
Barlow s. Weeks, attorney for Roland
B. Molineux. made a lengthy statement to
Tribune reporter. saying among other
things:
II shall move on Friday before Record
er Golf for new trial of my client be-
fore sentence is pronounced. From a de-
NAL of that motion l shall appeal on the
following grounds, among others:
First. That the verdict of guilty was
not justified by the evidence.
Second. That the testimony with refer
ence to the death of Barnet was improper
ly admitted
Third. That the testimony of certain
experts upon which the conviction ap-
parently rests was not sufficiently f,orrob-
grated.
II cannot at this time OUTLINE all the
features Of the arguments pertinent to
this case. But Roland Burnbam Mollineux
will finally be acquitted. The finding of
the jury on Saturday night will not stand
The Court of Appeals will, 1 am sure,
grant a new trial and my clients acquittaI
will follow"
Mr.. Weeks said that the procedure will
be substantial. Steps for an appeal will
be taken i'm mediately after sentence has
been pronoi Inced An appeal will be
taken direct to the Court of Appeals as
the case, according to statute, will NOT
pass through the appellate division. The
Court of Appeals has power to review both
errors of fact and errors of law The
time within which the appeal will be made
depends upon the time the district attor-
ney's office will consume in taking up the
case. The appeal will act as a stay Of
execution Of the sentence. The evidence
will be reduced to a narrative form, car
rying the salient features of the testi-
m0ny. Where exceptions were taken the
questions and answers will be given ver-
batm in order to give the judges clear
insight into the legality and Materially
of the testimony Printed briefs will be
subnitttd by counsel for both sides and
arguments will be made by Messrs. Weeks
and Os borne on their respective briefs.
MIR. Weeks said that when the case is an
appeal, reference will be made to nearly
all the exceptions taken by himself during
the trial. Stress will also be laid on the
refusal. of the Recorder to charge certain
things asked for by the defense. Mr..
Weeks made no exceptions to this charge
of the Recorder, but he did except to the
refusal of the Recorder to charge certain
things.
If che Court of Appeals refuses to grant
a new trial, Moineux will be brought to
New fork from Sing Sing for resentence
Under any circumstances, 1t Is expected
that 'Molineux will be taken to Sing-Sing

SHIPMENT OF GOODS IN BOND.
BILL TO PERMIT THEIR TRANSIT
ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

Passed by the House After Some MIS-
cussion-The Measure Extends the
Privilege TO the Transconttncntnl
Lines-aisO Permits Shipments in
Bond to the Mexican Free Zone.
Several Pension bills Passed by
the House.
Washington, Feb. IAN important bin
was passed by the House to-day which
makes universally applicable the law that
permits the transit of goods in bond
through certain ports of the United States
Under it, goods in bond can be shipped
through any portion of the territory or
the United States to foreign ports 1t is
principally designed to give the transpor-
tation companies of the United States a
share of the trans-continental trade to the
Orient
The bill also repeats the law of March
l, 1898, prohibiting the shipment of goods
in bond to the Mexican free zone The
latter provision was fought by Mr. Steph-
ems of Texas
The remainder of the day was occupied
in passing tsle private pension bills favor

sion, and in District of Columbia legisla.
ton.
After disposlng of half dozen district
bills. Mr.. Payne of New York. chairman
of the Ways and Means Committee, called
up the bill to permit transit through tbs
United States of goods In bond without
the payment of duties. The bill has a
proviso suspending its operation as far as
goods bound for the Mexican free zone are
concerned.
4 MIR. Payne explained that the bill was
designed TO broaden the scope of the pres
emit law so as to permit the transhipment
Of goods across the United States no
matter what their destination might be.
1t was especially desirable in view of the
growing trade with the Orient. Under ii
goods could be shipped across the United
States to China or Japan.
The free zone provision was designed
to prevent smuggling. Mr.. Payne said
that he would yield to Mr. Grosvenor of
OHIO to offer an amendment to the pro-
vision. 1t was offered and proposed TO
substitute for 1t an amendment to repeal
the joint resolution of March 1, 1895, to
prohibit the entry of goods into the free
zone of Mexico
MIR Stephens of Texas made a point of
order against the amendment, which was
not sustained.
Mr.. Cooper of Texas, the author OF the
amendment, explained the necessity for
the repeal of the joint resolution.
The attempt of Congress to prevent
smuggling by the joint resolution, he said.
had not succeeded, but on the contrary It
had proved detrimental to our transporta-
ton companies. Goods for the free zone
now went to Vera Cruz and Tampico,
Mexico and were hauled by Mexican
roads. The resolution prevented Aneri-
can railroads and American laborers from
handling the goods which went into the
free zone. The treasury department, he
said, recommended It's repeal.
The amendment was adopted, Sc to r.,
and the bin passed.
At 3:15 p. m the House adjourned.

who said In part:
IF we would continue to spread the
spirit of Lincoln and finish the work
which he began 1T should be our highest
ambition to make the negro. first of all. q
property holding. industrious, intelligent,
virtuous citizen, and a Republican or DEM
ocrat afterwards.
THE time has come when all of us
should take high ground with reference 10
the negro's position at the South. In this
we must lift ourselves above mere tenn
porary party advantages or the influence
OF tradition. The negro must be taught
that in every manly, STRAIGHTFORWARD,
honorable way, he should cultivate the
confidence and friendship and cooperation
of the white man by whose side he lives
in the South. In turn the Southern white
man should be encouraged not to dis
trust the negro, but to give his hearty
consent and active, personal cooperation
to every measure that has for its object
the lifting up of the negro to the highest
plane of citizenship. All through the
South / am glad to notice evidences that
show that the best and most cultivated
classes of white people are beginning to
take a deeper interest in the negroes. No
man can assist in lifting another up with
out himself being made stronger. happier
and more useful
