ADDRESSES THE Jury.
Extracts from Address of Judge
Lewis, Appointed to Defend
the Assassin

Buffalo, N. ": Sept. 25.-When at
2:44 p. m. Tuesday District Attorney
Penney announced that the case of
the prosecution in the trial of Czol-
gosz was ended, Judge Lewis, one of
the assassir's counsel, arose SLOWLY.
and, addressing the court, said that
the sudden close of the case against
his colleague. They had no witness
to call for the defense. He asked the
court that he b. allowed to address
the Jury at once. The court assent
ed and the venerable jurist began an
address that will long be remembered
by those who heard it. Judge Lewis
said in part:
anarchist, a man who does not believe in
any law or in any form of government.
And there are. so We are told, other irdi-
viduals who entertain that opinion. We
all feel that such doctrines are dangerous,
are criminal. are doctrines that will SUBJ
vert our government in time If they are
allowed to prevail. Gentlemen of the jury,
while I believe firmly in that, do not
believe it creates danger to this court
euqal to the belief. becoming so common,
that men who are charged with crime shall
not be permitted to go through the form of
a trial in a court of justice, but that lynch
law shall take the place of the calm and
dignified administration of the law BY our
courts of justice. When that doctrine be-
comes sufficiently prevalent in this coun-
try, If it ever does, our institutions will
be set aside and overthrown, and if we are
not misinformed as to the state of mind of
some people in some parts of the country,
the time Is fast approaching when men
charged with crime will not be permitted
to come into court and submit to calm
and dignified trial; but will be strung up to

The "Old Alamo Mission" about
which this city is built was the larg-

of forts erected by Spain to guard
her northern from ier against the en-
croachment of the French, and, as
you remember, here was fought the
bloodiest battle, so far as the per-
centage of the defenders killed was
concerned, that the history of inde-
pendence can boast of. The record
here is, that l69 Texans lay dead in
the Alamo" on March 6, 1886, (be-
ing all the inmates except few wo-
men and children) and that during
the siege they killed about 1000 Of
the Mexicans out of an army of
5000 that besieged them; but l think,
judging from my observation during
the last ten days, that there must
have been some mistake about there
being only 1000 survivors of the at
tacking army of Mexicans, as they
are now found in all parts of the city,
many of them holding high official po-
sitions; but they are interesting, many
of them quite handsome with raven
hair, sparkling black eyes and dash
