A GERMAN VIEW.

Berlin. March 11.-Willlam Grunow'
editor of Die Grenzboten Of Leipsic, IN
anaIyzing the play of internal interests
in the far east says that the late Field
Marshal Won Waldersee. after his return
from China, often talked with his close
friends on the certainty that the United
States would have leading role there
His solicitude for the future interests
OF Germany was also connected with the
United States position in far eastern
affairs.
Herr Grunow does not say where Won
Waldersee's utteIances and the cditor
began but the article continues:
'sThe United States attitude towards
Germany IL understandable because OF
her commercial relations with Japan and
Manchuria and by reason OF her aspira-
ton TO the Hegemony OF the Pacific. III
tho United States should maintain her
claims TO predominance In the PACING
she must reckon with Japan, either as a
friend or an enemy. For the moment
the United States interests require
friendly relations with Japan, taking into
consideration the limited strength OF the
American navy and the existence OF the
British Japanese utterances. For the
time this alliance will check American
Hegemony on the Asiatic side OF the
Pacific"
The editor regards an American British
japanese alliance as a possibility.

HIGH BALLS
FIGURE IN
COURT CASE.

Chief Justice Stiness and Justices TIL
iinghast and Douglas today heard the
case of George w. Bugbee. administrator
vs.. the estate OF Freeman Baker, against
the Union Railroad company on defend
ants petition for a new trial.
Henry w. Hayes made a vigorous argu-
ment in behalf OF the petition and the
court disagreed with him on a very vital
point. or at least refused to agree with
him.
There was testimony that a motorman
saw Baker stagger Just before the acct
dent. and also testimony that Baker had
taken, n couple OF drinks OF liquor. owing
TO sickness a short time before he was
killed. Or. Conway, who attended Mr..
Baker. said the latter's lips were closed
50 brandy could not be forced through
his lips. The doctor could not say that
there was any evidence of intoxicetion
about Baker. man who held his head
said he could discern no signs OF fntoxica-
tion. The jury dlsbelieved the testimony
In regard 10 intoxlcation and gave the
administrator a verdict for $1,000
II was while arguing on the two drinks
that Baker was alleged to have taken
that Mr.. Hayes declared, Your honors
have recently taken cognizance of the
erect or TWO nlgnbails on man ac-
customed to drink" Judge Tillinghast
replied. I'VE have not and then Mr..
Hayes said, You have not" and Judge
Tilfinghast said 'I have not"
After a few remarks by Mr.. Raymond,
who was associated with r.. d. Bassett,
for the plaintiff. the court took up the
next case. On the night OF June IL was
run down and pulled by one OF the de-
fendants cars.
A new trial Is asked on the usual
grounds and besides on the ground that
the defendant has discovered new and
important evidence. The chief questions
raised as, TO whether the car was run
without lights and whether the plain
tinff' intestate was intoxicated at the
time of the accident
Mr.. Hayes, I'm his brief says: Must
there not have been a tremendous
stretching OF conscience to have per-
mitted the finding OF such a verdict on the
face OF such testimony after having
taken an oath that they will give rrue
verdict in accordance with the weight of
the testimony and with the law?" MIR
Hayes asks the court to order judgment
for the defendant
