a Voice That Should be Needed by Our
Legislatures in Providing for More
Elastic System for the Administra-
tion Of Law-Delays Dangerous.

New York Oct. 13.-In an address
before the Philadelphia fraternity In

the accused of the accomplishment of
crime.
But 1t does not follow that because

the system is wrong, or that mob rule
had better supplant 1t, or that there Is
justification at any time for assassin
