In the case of Hezekiah Coates, the little
colored boy, placed on trial yesterday in
Criminal Court No. 1. accused of the muir
der OF Carrie Corbin, last December, by
shooting her with a shotgun. Justice An
derson shortly before 3 o'clock this after

of not guilty. The boy was thereupon re-
leased from custody, after he had volun-
tarily thanked the court for its Kindness.
and he started for home with his mother.
When the prosecution. conducted by AS
sistant United States Attorney Taylor, an
nounced Its case closed Attorneys Stras-
burger and Dammann, who had been as
signed by Justice Anderson to represent the
defendant, moved that the jury be directed
to acqult. In taking this action the court
pointed out that the law presumes that a
child between the ages of seven and four
teen years has not the intent to commit
crime, and as the government had not even
attempted to overcome such presumption
the defendant was entitled to be discharged.

seasonable Window Decoration.

A window decoration, which Is attracting
more than ordinary attention is on view
at the establishment OF Hecht & Co., on 7th
street. The exhibit is In the form of an
Easter float in which an immense half egg
shell furnishes the body and Is itself sup
ported on an under structure constructed
In cloud-like effect. In the she'll are two
life size dolls, one Of them driving a team
Of eight white hares and holding in her
hands reins Of lavender ribbons
The float has the appearance of having
just emerged from a canopy OF white and
gold arched over with a string Of set cleo
trio lights. Most of the work Is In white
and gold with here and there other colors
brought into play.
Together with this bit Of fairyland are to
be seen handsome displays of Easter
gowns, bonnets and other spring effects

REFUSED BAIL FOR RATHBoNE.
Havana Judge Sends Him and Hi.
Partners to Jail.

A dispatch from Havana yesterday says:
Estes G. Rathbone. the former director Of
posts, who was arrested last night after
having been sentenced the day previous by
the audiencia court TO ten years imprison-
ment and to pay a fine Of S35 ,324, as a re-
suit of his connection with the Cuban pos
tai frauds remained In the Vivao prison all
night. Today he was taken to the carcel
jaiD accompanied by a number Of friends.
Rathbone's bondsman, Senior Lopez. a
Spanish merchant, went to court this morn
ing and announced that he was willing to
furnish bonds in any amount, but bail was
absolutely refused.
Acting Governor Scott says the case Is In
the hands of the court. and that he cannot
Intervene in the matter of fixing bail IL the
court refuses to accept bail.
w. II. Reeves was also removed to Jail
today, on an order of arrest. He was for
merly deputy auditor Of the Cuban post
office department. and was sentenced with
Rathbone and c. F. W. Nicely, March "a,
to ten years Imprisonment and to pay
fine of $50, $40, for misrepresentation Of pos
tai funds.
Neither Rathbone nor Reeves has the op-
ton of bail This is because their SEN
fences are for more than six years dura-
ton. Although the law in certain circum-
stances permits the acceptance of ball until
the sentence shall be finally executed, the
court holds that there are no circumstances
in the present case to warrant the accept
ance of bail.
Under the Spanish law, the court Is al
lowed to accept bail when the accused has
a good record when there is 40 reason to
suppose he will attempt to escape Justice,
when the crime with which he Is charged
has not produced alarm and when 1t is not

banks duplicate set Of blanks for report
of condition, with circular letter request

has been made that this delay destroys i'll

promptly, thereby preventing the comne-
