to be the two Senators that are OPP

Nevertheless the movement will go
on, and it will gain strength from
day today. Continued adherence to
Bryan and his miserable dogmas, will
mean the humiliation and dislnte-
grafton of the Democratic party.
The nomination of real Democrat,
on a sound money and generally sound
platform, offers hopes of success and

PATRICK TALKS
Discusses His Case and Is Conf
dent of New Trial.

New York, March ~. Albert Pat
rick arose today, after an apparently
untroubled sleep, and ate hearty
breakfast. He will not speak of the
verdict of guilty" found by the ju-
rors late yesterday, and his confidence
in a new trial is complete.
Prosecutor Osborne said today, that
nothing has been decided in regard to
the punishment of Jones, Patrick s
valet, who murdered millionaire Rice.
1t is announced that Meyer and
Short, bank clerks, will be tried on
the charge of perjury i'll the case.
The verdict is surprise to many,
as disagreement of the jury was gen
orally expected.
Later today Patrick consented to
break the silence, and declared that
he was surprised at the verdict, but
no more so than the District Attor-
ney, who prosecuted him. He de-
clared that witnesses were corrupted,
and the decision of the jury was based
on the charge of recorder Goff which
was too strong and permitted the use
of evidence winch should not have
been admitted. He had hoped for a
disagreement. Patrick says he is con-
soious of having done right, and
would rather have that feeling than
go free. He is confident that he will
be freed in re-trial.
The attorney general holds that a
newly created office cannot be con-
strued as vacancy, aud therefore an
election to ill vacancy is not prop
er, and that the governor has the right
to make an appointment which shall
hold good until regular election is
held.
This of course will set aside the an
nouncements of candidates who
thought they had chance for the
plum.
