HARRY GRAY ACQUITTED.
Not Guilty of the Charge of Murder
ing Resin Champion.

Harry Clinton Gray was yesterday ac-
Oliver Champion by jury in Criminal
Court No. l. The trial was begun yes
terday morning, the accused being repre-
scented by Attorney A. S. Colyar and the
Government by Assistant District Attor-
neys Taylor and Bingham. Justice Cla-
baugh presided over the proceedings.
The arguments Of counsel were con-
cluded at $50 D. m, and after a brief
charge by the court the case was sub
mitted to the jury. 1t was stated that the
jury agreed to a verdict of acquittal
within thirty minutes after 1t retired to
the consultation room. but the result was
not announced until Justice Clabaugh re-
turned to the City Hall at p. m.
The crime with which Gray was charged
was committed on the towpath OF the
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal on October 6
last, short distance north OF the Aque-
duct Bridge. Gray had been a boarder at
Champions home. but because Of his at
tention to the latter's wife he was ordered
to leave. This Gray did some time before
the shooting took place.
The testimony for the Government was
concluded at 4:30 p m. and Gray's counsel
asked the court to instruct the jury to re-
turn verdict of acquittal on the ground
that the Government failed to make out
a case. The motion was Overruled and
Mr. Colyar announced that he. too, would
rest his case, and the defendant was not
called to testify in his own defence. The
arguments to the jury occupied about an
hour and q half

CRANKY CRITICS.

Once in while an editor has to
"break out" upon sort of critic in
cluded in almost every newspapers
constituency. Generally it is the
kind who think they know what
ought to go into his paper better
than the editor himself, who make the
trouble. Recently the editor of the
Putnam Conn., Standard gave such
critics to "know their place." in
wholesome fashion, as follows:-
'"There are persons who are SO
deeply interested in certain moral
and religious movements that they
think the newspaper should open its
columns for articles of any length
and quantity; and because we will
not print them, charge us with be-
ing recreant to our principles.
"Such people think they know
just how a newspaper ought to be
edited, much better thon the editor,
and as advisors, think We should not
regard our financial interest in do
ing our work. A large class of this
kind, We find, will not permit theil
names to be appended, for the reason
as they tell us, that they do not de
sire to incur the ill-will of anyone
evidently unconcerned how much
hostility and financial loss fall OF
the editor.
1--WE print paper to make a liv
ing, as men carry on any business
We desire to make it an influence
for good. We desire to be at peace
with all men as much as is possible
as suggested by the Apostle, who
knew that with some men it was no.
possible, do what one might to please
them. Were it not for the common
sense and fair-mindedness of the av
erage person, and the manly forbear
ance of the more intelligent and in,
flaential class, making all allowanc,

would be indeed trying one."

THE WALL STREET GAME.

Charles Il. Yerkes, the Chicago
millionaire, says that the man who
speculates in Wall Street will lose in
the end.
81 defy any broker" said Mr..
Yerkes, "to show me any man who
has dealt with him for two years or
more who has come out with money.
| have not looked at stock list for
thirteen years. At that time, after
many years experience on the Stock
Exchange, / left it, SO thoroughly
disgusted that i never want to enter
it again. l repeat, The man who
goes into Wall Street to make a for
tune is an idiot, and he ought to
have guardian"
Such is the verdict of one of the
shrewdest fnarciers of the age, yet
there are thousands of "idiots" who
believe that they can beat the game,
and so keep on playing it.
