THE NEw YoRK KENNEpY TRIALs.

nearly three years the New York courts have been
trying in vain to solve the problem Of the guilt
cence of DR. Samuel J. Kennedy the dentist accused Of
numbering Dolly Reynolds with leaden bludgeon in
hotel room on the night Of August 15 1898 The first
trial resulted in conviction with death penalty The
court Of appeals granted trial which resulted in
disagreement Of the jury. third just ended
with the result. eight jurors being for acquttaL
There talk Of quashing the Indictment and freeing
the prisoner
The remarkable feature Of the case is found in the
gradual but steady strengthening Of the ab testimony
says the Chicago Tribune This plea Of the defense
played part trial In the second sew
witnesses appeared with evidence tending to
show that the accused could been near the scene
OF the murder at the tine it committed Strangely
enough the third trial has brought test-
mony the same effect creating an almost complete
chain Of evidence to show that Dr. Kennedy was not at
the hotel where the crime committed No less than
eleven persons have positively that they
that night in such places make physically i'm
possible for him to have done the murder.
There is evidence from widely separated sources to
show chat Kennedy left his Office at $50 in the evening
in direction Sixth avenue and spent the even

though he intoxicated believed he took the u Is
boat for Staten Island just closed new and
important witness forward substantiate this point
An actor who living Staten Island at the time tes-
ed that he crossed the 1915 boat and saw Dr. Ken
nedy, whom he knew by sight, and who drunk and
who reeed against him. Two hack drivers testified TO
having the accused leave the boat series Of
witnesses has been found account Kennedy from
that time up to the hour when he was in bed.
What strikes as most remarkable is that so many
people should be able to recall small details this
after the lapse Of nearly three years and that these wit
should become more numrous at each succsedng
trial Ordinarily there is better chance Of proving an
alib after crime than long after it Yet the ey-
dence ct these witnesses strong enough to cause
disagreement Of the jurors in the second trial. and it has
proved st potent IN the third. While jurors
remained unconvnced by the abf evidence it is to this
testimony that Dr. Kennedy apparently win his lib

which represented money Of hers which he unable
repay. The flaw the theory was that if the dentist
committed the murder, he did the check from
her person. If he be guilty there clew to the
real perpetrator Of the crime.

THE LATE HAzEN PINeREE
M. M. MURDOCH. Editor.

The career of the late Pingree illustrated the
common anxiety the mass Of the people entertain Of
power concentrated in corporations
Held to be demagogue by the general run Of part-
sans over the country subject gbe and jee admittedly
errac at tines he was sufficiently unafaid the pres
ence Of corporate power to win four times the ayoray
CT Detroit each time by an increased majority and to
be elected governor OF Michigan solely this reputation
by an immense vote
The people are not alarmed over corporate develop
ment They do not fear it particularly. But they are
anxious because Of certain tmidy by majority
of public men and the public press in respect to great
organizations
Information that money used freely in legislative
bodies is now general Appreciation Of the fact that
corporations are IN legislatures more powerful than con
suences is not confined to the lobby ITSELF the public
knowledge that corporations provide part of
campaign funds IS not special with the knowledge
the realization that most men in seeking political favors
exercise monumental precauton not attacking corpora
in way that corporations care for that is specific
ally
With it all IS the popular feeling denied generally by
corporate influence that in the increase Of corporate power
in public affairs there is some surrender Of power in ndi
yidual suffrage.
Whether this be true or not great mass OF people
feel it. and when man appears who is not afraid to
attack aggregated wealth specifically and with some good
unehh purpose in view and can get the required nomin
alton in spite Of the corporations or because Of their IN
difference there is little question OF his election And
