ATE EVIDENCE AGAINST HIN

Prisoner stops Trial by Chewing and
Swallowing a Forged Check.
The Kings county court was thrown
into disorder and dismay, says q Seat
tie special to the st. Louis Post-Dis-
patch, when the prisoner at the bar,
H. r. McTavish, ate all the evidence
In the case on trial. McTavish was
being tried on charge Of forging a
SIS check. The check lay on the trial
table, marked exhibit A." McTavish
sat beside his counsel, who was en-
gagged in cross-examining a witness
for the prosecution.
The case was going against Nc
lavish when his eye fell on the check,
which was about to be introduced in
evidence. Like half-starved man
and with look of hunger In his eye,
the prisoner bounced upon exhibit A
and chewed it to pulp.
With soulful satisfaction he gulped
It down. The prosecution was in con-
sternation, for its main piece Of evil
dence was gone, and demanded that a
stomach pump be used forthwith.
While the lawyers argued pro and con,
the prisoner calmly picked his teeth
with q whitfield match, plainly the
master Of the situation. The defense
argued that the ball Of paper In the
defendants stomach could in no wise
be construed as documentary evil
dence. and that dismissal was prop
er.

THE CITY LIGHT PLANT.

a recent walk from one end of the
city electric plant pipe line to the
other, reveals the fact that up to this
time, at least, that pipe doesn't give
the slightest evidence of having been
constructed Of poor timber, nor OF its
having been put together badly etc.
The knocking that was done at the
time that pipe was being built was
little short Of terrific. The men In
charge were dubbed '"incompetents, :"
the city council was fayed, and many
columns appeared in the Democratic
organ in reference to the bad timber
being used, the undoubted failure Of
the system when completed, etc, etc.
But why recall unpleasant incidents?
All that was said during campaign,
and OF course our democratic friends
had to create some thunder And
just like thunder, the noise has rolled
away, and the plant during eighteen
months of continuous operation has
proved an almost unparalleled success

The PEACE.


Benjamin Franklin, the most pract-
ical as well as the most philosophical
OF all American statesmen, said;
There never was a good war or a bad
peace" and the wisdom OF mankind
has confirmed his aphorism. History
will probably declare the peace OF the
treaty Of Portsmouth to be good. 1t
is just peace and, to be hoped, a
lasting.
Japan has gained all that Is just
and more than she went TO war over.
Baron Komura's telegram of August
3, 1903, to Minister Kurino, contain
ing the proposed "basis of understand
ing between Japan and Russia" con-
tanned three provisions: first, mutual
engagement TO respect China's and
Korean independence and territory,
and the open door" there; second,
reciprocal recognition Of Japan's pre-
pouderating interest in Korea and
Russia's special interests in Man
churia, and their respective right to
protect their interests in each place;
reciprocal undertaking of Russia and
Japan not to impede their respective
commercial and industrial develop
ments in each place.
What the precise agreements will
be, only the treaty will show, and 1t
Is probable that there will be secret
treaty behind that; as IL should not
be forgotten that Komura In Japan
and White In Russia before the war
represented largely the community
OF interest" idea which, curiously
enough, put the Marquis Ito out Of
the conference. Enough is known to
lead to the belief that Russia agrees to
evacuate Manchuria, to surrender its
lease Of the Manchuria peninsula, in
GLIDING Dalny, Port Arthur and the
Elliott Islands; surrenders all privi-
leges under its concession of 1898. to-
gether with the railroad from Hardin
south, which goes to China. Chinese
sovereignty" is to be restored to
Manchuria and the Chinese Eastern
railway, now owned and controlled
and policed by Russia, is to become
Chinese. japanese dominance in
Korea is conceded Altogether Japan
gains greatly and Russia loses wholly
the issues over which was began In
addition Japan gains half Of Sakhalen
and an indefinite sum of money, which
Is not to be called tribute or indemnity
only payment for cars OF prisoners
perhaps.
Many japanese seem to have set
their hearts on indemnity. They for
get that indemnity has heretofore
only been paid by conquered nation,
and generally as ransom Russia is
not conquered. No japanese has set
foot on Russian soil except on the $50
lated island of Sakhain. Vladivo-
stok has not fallen, even. Japan has
merely driven Russia out OF Man
churia, country foreign to both
nations, anomalous as that is and has
destroyed the major part of the
Russian navy. Russia herself is as
untouched as the United State would
be II England were to destroy our
Atlantic fleet drive US out Of Mexico,
say, and capture Hawaii. Under
those circumstances this nation might
make peace, but ii is unlikely that it
would pay indemnity. The japanese
have no real ground for objections to
what their peace ENJOYS have done for
they have made a just and magnani-
nous peace, peace with honor.
