KAIGHN ASKS
FOR NEW TRIAL
Attorneys Filed Motionin District
Court Yesterday.
DATE OF SENTENCE TODAY
THREE REASONS WHY THERE
SHOULD BE RE-TRIAL
DATE OF SENTENCE TODAY

A MOTION for a new trial for Roy
~ Kaighn. convicted OF voluntary
manslaughterr for the killing OF
Willard S. Haynes, was fiied in the
district court yesterday. The DEFEND
ant win appear before Judge Morse this
morning for sentence and at that time
the argument Of the molten for anoth-
er hearing will be made by the attor-
neys for the defense.
The notice Of intention to ask for a
new trial sets forth that 1t viii be
asked upon three grounds.
The first ground set forth is that the
verdict is contrary 10 law.
The second ground Is that the verdict
IS not supported by the evidence intro
duced.
The third cause urged in support of
a new trial IS that the verdict was
rendered by other than a fair express
sion of opinion of the jurors,
This last cause. it is stated, will be
the main one urged in support of an
other hearing. 1t is understood that
in support of this cause some af1daVlts
secured from certain OF the jurors may
be produced showing that the verdict
reached was not fair expression or
opinion of all the jurors.
When the verdict was entered, Judge
Morse set this morning at 10 o'clock
as the time for sentence and the con-
victed young man will appear i'm court
at that time to receive judgment. The
attorneys will take advantage of this
opportunity to argue the motion for
another hearing.
Young Kaighn and his father are
very hopeful that Judge Morse will
grant a new trial and IL he does they
are confident that before another jury
they viii be able to win the case. They
feel that the jury that passed judg-
ment was prejudlced by the sight OF
A murder while they were listening 10
the testimony in this case.

Striugency in the British Money
Market and a Depletion of
the Yellow Metal.

London. Oct. 2.-The Bank of Eng
lands rate OF discount was increased
from TO per cent today. The ad-
vance had in a great measure been an
ticipated in consequence of the strin-
gency Of the money market and the de-
pletion of gold as shown by the report
OF the Bank of England. Consequently
its effect on the stock exchange was
moderate. Prices declined fractionally
in all the leading departments.
Opinion in Lombard street favored
an advance of a full point, as 1t was
claimed that the time for preeaution-
airy measures had arrived. Notwith-
standing Secretary Shaw's measures. a
strong demand for bar gold for the
United States continues and Egypt and
South America are also customers.
The forthcoming japanese loan is not
likely to seriously affect the gold stu
alton in the United States. The pay
ments are expected to be extended
over a considerable period. though, as
one banker said: 1T will not make
money any cheaper"
Berlin. Oct. 2.-Some of the financial
papers think the Reischsbank will fol-
low the Bank Of England's course and
raise it's rate of discount in few
days u or per cent. II is pointed out
that the demands on the bank are very
heavy for quarterly settlements. but
the situation is already improving in
the open market. the rate having fallen
4 to 2ik. The London rise did not af-
feet the situation here beyond advanc-

pinos, they are ours by right of this
conquest and are TO govern them in
our own way. They are to have no
voice in the matter. Their wishes
are not TO be taken into account.
They desire absolute independence,
but this is to be denied them. They
are to have just such a measure of
freedom as we declare is good for
them. no more, possibly less.
This is the offer of great re-
public to millions of people who de-
sire 10 establish n republic. An alien
people withhoIds them this right.
1t doles out TO them such doses of
freedom as monarchy doles out TO its
subjects. 1t is no answer to say the
Filipinos are not capable of self
government. That is admitted. They
are not equipped at present to govern
themselves. But the promise
should be held out to them that they
shall have absolute home rule when
they show the needed capacity. No
party in this country would withdraw
the American troops from the Phil
ippines and leave the natives to shift
for themselves. The army should
stay there, not to beat down and over
awe the natives, but to enforce law
and order while the people are being
taught self rule. Give them assur-
ance that some day they shall be
free and the insurrectiou viii cease
in a week.
This boon. however, will not be
vouch-safed them. Senator Beve-
ridge. speaking for the party in pow
er, declares the Filipinos shall never
be given their liberty; they shall
be governed as Great Britain governs
Ireland. This is not Americanism.
This is Imperialism.

TO THE SUPREME BEING.

The prayers l make will then be
sweet indeed,
If thou the spirit give by which |
pray;
My unassisted heart is barren clay;
That of it's native self can nothing
feed
OF good and pious works thou art
the seed.
That quickens only where thou say
est it may;
Unless Thou show to us Thine own
true way
No man can find it; Father, Thou
must lead.
Do Thou. then breathe those thoughts
into my mind.
BY which such virtue in me may be

That in Thy holy footsteps l may

The letters of my tongue do Thou

And sound Thy praise everlastingly.

Puttine a Tarifr on water.

One of the freak features of the
tariff system is the paragraph which
places "a duty of p cents a gallon on
imported water. The righteousness
of this is exposed by Lewis \. Dodge.
"A Boston attorney. He says: This
same outrageous tax was the cause
of nv making a comfortable fee from
firm in Toronto that is engaged in
shipping a very popular mineral wa
ter into the United States. When the
% cent tax was first levied upon my
clients they thought it was a mistake,
and so did / until | looked up the
law. Then | told them that they
could be made 10 pay. Their reply
was that such a duty was prohibitive.
as they had been selling the water at
price far below the tax.
Il asked one of the firm if ii were
possible 10 freeze the water and eX-
port il to the United States as ice.
He said it could be done easily. Then
told him there was no duty on ice
and tn go right along with his freeZ-
ing. The advice was followed and
the collector on our side of the land
held up the first shipment. | threat
ened him with dire vengeance, where
upon he wired to Washington. and
was answered that nothing could be
done-ice was not taxable. My eli
ents are still at the business.

There were. besides the English

ing unacquainted with our language,
made their various speeches in Ital-
