MONUMENT IS DEDICATED
TO MEMORY OF ARTHUR.
Marks His Birthplace at Fairfield, VT.
-Former Senator Chandler
the Orator.

Fairfield. VT. Aug. ga granite monu-
ment marking the site Of the birthplace Of
the late President Chester A. Arthur was
dedicated here to-day:
The principal speaker was former Senator
William E. Chandler of New Hampshire.
who was Secretary Of the Navy in Arthur's
Cabinet. Speaking of the assassination Of
President Garfield, Senator Chandler said:
Waiting a few weeks ago in the ante
room Of President Roosevelt and noticing
the absence of all mere form and ceremony
and Of all signs Of power at the White
House. the same as in the days of 1865. 1881
and 1897. 1t was to me most difficult TO real
lie that had been very near to and had
almost witnessed the shooting to bloody
death Of three Presidents by the foul hands
OF brutal assassins.
Are the transformations chiefs Of a re-
publican state, holding their Offices for only
op ef the
be no safer from the bullets aud bombs Of
iegicides than the tyrant upon lespotc
throne. who. II not forcibiy removed. may
for the whole Of q long lifetime Cypress
his helpless subjects?
Great as was the horror and grief of the
American people at the murders OF their
Presidents, 1t Is some relief to realize as We
assassin stood practically alone In his deed
Of murder and represented no desire OF any
considerable number Of persons Of eny
class, either South or North. Thank heav-
in conduct to take to heart by reason Of
the frenzied and Fatal assaults on three OF
their predecessors made by wretched beings.
as to each of whom 1t may be said That
that the responsibility for his sense;ess act
was his alone"

Plea Will Be Made That She Could
Not Be Found Guilty of Muir

REp1tsL1c SPECIAL

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Topeka, kas.. Aug. ao.-The Jessie Morri-
son murder case will be appealed to the
United States Supreme Court. Judge A. l.
Redden of Topeka is now preparing the
papers. He believes he has raised consti-
tutional question which will enable him to
get hearing in the court Of last resort In
this country.
Miss Morrison was tried three times. The
first jury disagreed. The second convicted
her of mansiaughter. and she was SEN
fenced to five years in prison. This verdict
was upset by the State Supreme Court. The
third jury convicted her of murder, and she
was sentenced to twenty-five years IN
prison. The Supreme Court affirmed this
decision. She is now in the Penitertiary.
In his appeal to the United States Court
Judge Redden will raise the point that a
person charged with crime when once
convicted and sentenced and the case is re-
versed. cannot be convicted Of higher
crime at subsequent trial than that Of
which he was first convicted In other
words. Miss Morrison. being convicted Of
granddaughter first, could not, be convicted
of higher crime afterwards The supreme
courts Of several States have laid down this
rule as law.
