A Reasonable Doubt in Most's Case
(By the Associated Press.)

New York. Oct. 29.-Justice MacLean,
in the Supreme court granted a certificate
of reasonable doubt in the case of John
Most editor Of the Freiheit, an anarchist
paper, in order to stay his sentence OF
twelve months Imprisonment for the pub
LEGATION of an article entitled Murder
versus Murder" which appeared on the
day of President Mckinley's assassina-
ton.
Justice MacLean says the only proof to
support the judgment is that Most pur
Joined an article, expressing certain sem
timents, written by another half CEN
fury ago, and published it as his own Sin
a paper professedly of some circulation
but which circulation is known by tie
sale of but a single copy, that purchased
by tie police, probably for the purpose of
prosecution
He says further that ii may be DOUBTED
reasonably whether the judgment even
with that support. should stand, as plag-
iarism is not 4 criminal Offense under
the laws of the United States.
1T is not shown says Justice Mac
Lean, that the defendants expression
of borrowed sentiments has worked in
jury to any individual by falsifying any
fact or to the public rea.s or health, or
that his acts were attended with cireum-
stances likely to disturb or endanger
the public peace or health"

NO MORE TROOPS NEEDED.
Half Dozen Regiments Selected For Service
in the Philippines MOTTO go Now.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, D. c., Oct. pa consid-
cradle part of the Cabinet meeting to-
day was devoted to a consideration of
the military situation in the Philippines
After hearing Secretary Roots report
and discussing the situation thoroughly
the Cabinet decided that there was no
present occasion to suspend the reduction
in the United States military forces in
the Philippines. The original policy
therefore, will prevail and it will not be
necessary, it is understood, to send 10
the Philippines at once the half dozen
regiments selected for the service last
week. Secretary Root said that the
sporadic outbreaks at isolated roints in
the islands would be dealt with properly
as they arose, and additional troops to
meet these small emergencies scarcely
would be needed.
While no public statement has been
made on the subject it is known that
President Roosevelt has nearly completed
his message to Congress.

Dim;,That..Was All.

Cleveland Ohio Oct. 29.-Next to the
witnesses in the death chamber at Au-
burn Prison where Leon F. Czolgosz's
life was shocked out of existence, there
were no more interested witnesses to the
far away vindication of justice than a
little group of men who had gathered in
the local office of the Associated Press
to learn of the final act early this morn
ing. This group included the next of kin,
the nearest of all human beings to the
assassin, his father and two brothers,
and half dozen of his former neighbors
in this city.
The same seeming Indifference that has
characterized the members Of the Cool
gosz family was maintained to the end,
and when the statement that Leon Czol-
gosz had been put to death was told to
the old man in Polish, his fingers
twitched neryously for minute or so,
suspicion of tear was seen to come into
his dark eyes and he made a reply in
Polish to friend who acted as inter-
prefer. The old mans statement was to
the effect that inasmuch as it had to be
it were better that it were all over
When told of Icons regret that he had
not seen his father, the assassin's par
ent replied regretfully that had he been
asked to go to Auburn he would have
done So but the news from Auburn was
never assuring and the father felt that
he was not wanted, hence he remained at
home.
The old man said finally that he would
not have been witness to the killing
OF his son, for the scene would have been
too much for his paternal heart.
Other than the suspicion of a tear in
the fathers eye there was no sign of
grief from him, and the two brothers,
both younger than Leon, began to ask
as to the probable painfulness of the
The party did not wait to
hear the details and soon left for their
homes, the father of the assassin to his
daily work in one of the city's parks, the
two brothers to their respective employ

goscz and Thomas Bandowski, brother
and brotherin-law of the assassin,
called at the prison at o'clock this af-
ternoon. They sent word in to Warden
Mead that they wished to see the body of
Leon Czolgoscz. The warden told them
that the body had been buried for more
than an hoour and that if they wished he
would send a gnard to guide them to the
grave. They answered that they did not
care to go to the cemetery but that they
were anxious to arrange for the collection
of the insurance on the life of the dead
murderer and asked that a certificate of
death be given to them. The warden
promised them certificate and they de-
parted. The insurance about which they
talked is supposed to be in fraternal
society to which the murderer belonged.

Invitations continue to pour in from
representative bodies in great American
cities to Rear Adm. Schley, asking him
to become their guest at receptions in
his honor, as soon as possible after the
close of the investigation proceedings.
Louisville insists upon having her turn
directly after Chicago. 1t would not be
strange if Schley were to be given an
opportunity to make triumphal prog
ress similar to that which Dewey made.
Certainly, the hero of Santiago deserves
no less honor than the hero of Manila
But it is altogether probable that Schley
will rather avoid than invite the lioniz-
ing process. Be that as it may, the
country has the assurance, growing out
of all his conduct since, as well as dur
ing the battle, that he will bear him
self with such modesty as is seldom alb
sent from bravery.
