RULING IN A STEER LITIGATION
A Missouri Legal Luminary Throws q
FacetiOus Light on the De-
VeIOpments.

The Missouri supreme court. IN an opin-
ion written by Judge W. C. Marshall. takes
occasion to have a little fun with Chief Of
Detectives William Desmond OF st. Louis,
in deciding a case In his favor and likewise
commencing him for obedience to disci-
pline.
The court twits Mr.. Desmond for his poor
Workmanship and gravely considers In
what manner the chief OF detectives could
hit a boy on a far distant corner when
shooting at a steer Just below him in the
street.
The facts in the case are that, in 1892, on
July 6, auwild steer ran amuck In St. Louis
in the neighborhood OF the Four Courts. A
number OF policemen ran after the animal
airing revolvers in an attempt to kill the
steer. Mr.. Desmond, who was a detective
on the force of Chief Hartman at the time,
was in. the -Four Courts building, and, lean
ing out Of the window directly above the
steer. emptied his revolver without effect
A boy named Albert Tolch, standing on the
north side Of Clark avenue. was struck by
a bullet.
Tolch brought suit against m for
damages and got judgment. Desmond com
promised the suit for ss71.s 80. An ordinance
was passed to reimburse Desmond. when an
action was brought TO restrain the city Of
hcials from paying the claim on the ground
that Il was for the use Of an individual.
The supreme court reversed the lower court
and directed the city 10 pay the amount
since Desmond was acting in an oheial
capacity.
The opinion contains the following rather
humorous language concerning Mr.. Des-
mond's ability to hit the "bulrs-eye;"

So, 900, 900, 900 or more. Russia's wealth In
1895, as Mulhall estimated It, amounted to
&c. 25, 900, 900, or s61 per capita. A recent
estimate places Russia's wealth at $32, 000,-
900. 900, or about 1896 per capita estimating
the population in 1901 at los, 600, 000). The
other ten countries of Europe are named in
the order Of their financial Importance:
Austria Hungary, whose wealth was esti-
mated by Mulhall in 1895 at $21 $40, 900, 900;
Italy, SIS, 1913, 900, 900; Spain, 81, 424, 900, 900;

Greece, 81 ,065, 800, 900.
From Mulhall's figures 1t appears that
the English are the best off financially Of any
people in the world, with the Scotch next.
The four other countries that have most
wealth per capita are Australia, France,
United States and Denmark. In 1895
the wealth per capita in the following
countries was: England, 9liOofi OCOtlduu'
S1,257; Australia, $1,22s; France, 1910;
United States $1,123; Denmark, $1,1o4.
There are six other countries whose
wealth per capita exceeded s72o; Canada,
$s4O; Holland, $s7s; Switzerland, $7s7; Ger
many, S74S; Belgium, 1888; Argentine, $739.
Among the great nations the percentage Of
debt to wealth is lowest in the United
States. being less than 1 per cent, while
that of France is the highest, over ~ per
cent. After England and Scotland Aus
tralia is the richest country in the world
in proportion to its population. Mulhall
figured its wealth per capita in 1895 as
1929. He reekoned the total annual earn
ings Of the seven colonies Including New
Zealand) at 1902, 900. 900. or an average
of s245 per capita, against $211 per capita
in the United States and S173 In Canada.
In proportion to its population the value OF

pire as exist In the states OF North Dakota,
South Dakota, Nebraska, Minnesota, Mon

people who have made their homes in these
growing commonwealths are Of the best

the education and the ability to win; they
are located in a section where nature has
lent its greatest and best efforts in giving
prosperity and happiness.
After all is said and all the praise has
been spoken, the great fact remains that
the investor feels more contented with his
holdings II they be in his own country. He
is not familiar with the laws and customs
OF foreign nations. and while he may be
assured that there will be nothing done
that will injure him, he cannot outgrow an
uneasiness that causes him anxiety. Hence
IT is that there is forever In existence an

that there is in the American soil as great

The western states Of this nation have
manifested that they can hold their own
against the competition OF all other parts
Of the world whatsoever. They have the
persistence and the facilities that are the
necessary qualities for the perfect devel-
opment OF their best features. Ons OF the
tests that they have undergone-the severe
drouth Of the summer Of 1901-was enough
to show the world their abundant claim to
a faith unquestioning and earnest. Give TO

OF a populous city and threatening the lives
OF the people is a nuisance on such streets.
There was apparently on hand no gayly at
tired matadore, with red shawl and keen
edged sword to remove the animal with
neatness and dispatch nor was there a
Bessie Mulhall to lasso and tie the steer
with speed and grace. Under the circum-
stances the act aforesaid It was clearly the
duty of the police to remove the nuisance.
1t does not appear from the record how
1t fell out that Desmond could hit a boy on
the opposite side of the street while lean
ing out Of a window and shooting at a steer
In the street below him. 1t would not be
commended that he made a "bull's-eye" on
the shot. In fact, such a remarkable ex-
hibition Of craftsmanship could not even
be explained upon the theory that
Many an arrow at random sent
Hits mark that archer little meant.
1T rather depends for solution upon the
precedent recorded in the nursery rhyme:
He shot at a goose and hit a gander.' In
short, but for the fact that the verdict of
the Jury in the damage suit so declared,
the idea that such a thing could have hap
pened would not have been tolerated. But
however It came about It goes to show the
state of discipline that existed in the
force and speaks volumes Of praise to the
spirit of obedience to orders that actuated
Desmond; which in some degree, at least,
compensates for the poor Workmanship dis
played. The incident goes to prove most
conclusively that brains and bullets are
necessary to make a successful detective
and that Desmond earned his position and
enviable reputation by the possession of a
cool head rather than by superior ability
with a gun, and even IL he could not hit a
mad steer he could make hit as the
head Of so efficient a detective force"
