AMERICAN CITIZEN
BUT BRITISH SAILOR

A sailor from the British bark Crit
fel went to U. S. District Attorney
Breckons yesterday for relief of two
kinds. He had to be informed he was
in the wrong shop, and he departed in
sorrow.
In the first place he wanted to be
released from the articles under which
he shipped. The British consul had in
structed him that this could be ar
ranged by mutual consent between the
captain and himself, but Captain Bill
let declined on his part to agree to
the proposal.
Mr.. Breckons told the disconnected
sailor that he could do nothing for
him. Then the sailor said he had been
struck on board ship. Could not
something be done ABOUT thats "I
am an American citizen he argued.
No, the District Attorney replied.

Editor Advertiser: During the trial
here, lust concluded, of Liverato Soto,
a Porto Rican. charged with murder,
first degree, popularity of our Grim
inal law was brought out that is
worthy of the careful consideration of
the legal fraternity.
1t may be, indeed, that special ses-
sion of the legislature viii be necessary
in order to give the community the
protection to which it is entitled.
At the hearing alluded to, upon re-
quests for instructions, Judge Mat
thewman stated that under the local
statutes, it was practically impossible
to instruct the jury as to that body
differentiating between the three crimes
of manslaughter in the first degree,
manslaughter in the second degree, and
manslaughter in the third degree. Sec
ton 2S99 of the Revised Laws defines
manslaughter, generally; just as Sec
ton 1895 defines murder, generally.
Yet, while Section 1897 defines the de-
grees of murder, there are no defni-
lions Of the degrees of manslaughter.
Section 1900 merely says that there are
three degrees of manslaughter and
proceeds to provide the different
punishments.
It is hardly satisfactory to say that
the jury may define the crime, it being
their function simply to ascertain the
crime that has been committed; they
have the right to demand the defni-
tions from the judge. No prosecuting
officer would thing of framing an in
dictment for murder, simply, without
specifying the degree; nor would such
an officer think of preparing a charge

THREE MORE men
N CONTRIBUTING

There was a revival Of the Camp
Mckinley counterfeiting case in the
Federal courtroom yesterday the out
come of which was the committal of
two more soldiers who up till then had
been detained as witnesses against
those first detected. An additional
corollary may be the arrest of a former
Camp Mckinley artilleryman on the
Coast with possibly trip for Marshal
Hendry to bring him here for examin-
alton and trial if committed.
Private Thomas Hilson, one of the
newly accused, saved all trouble by
waving examination before Commits
sioner Mailing and taking committal
under $500 bonds to the Federal grand
jury.
Corporal Hamilton on the other hand
fought his case, but Intellectually He
was bound over, after thorough ex-
animation, likewise in $500.
A face was put on his connection
with the affair by Hamilton which was
amusing to District Attorney Breckons
He said he had been approached by
Private Cooper, the practical man with
the moulds, to go into the counterfeit
ing business.
He told Cooper he did not believe
! coins could be made with plaster OF
pairs moulds. Out of curiosity to see
if it could be done, however, he join
ed in the scheme.
Mr.. Breckons asked why, if it was
merely a mechanical experiment with
him did he consent to having it car
ried on in a lonely house instead of
in the camp.
His reply was that it would occa-
SION too much talk if done in the
camp. Yet he admitted that after he
had drawn out of the scheme, as he
claimed, he took ten counterfeit s5's
down town and showed them to a
woman.
Corporal Hitchings, now with the
2Sth battery at San Diego is the third
man implicated in these proceedings.

Under Honest Management He Be

Public,

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. Ill be-
lieve that 1t is best for cities TO own
their public utilities" Governor Folk
said today. The sentiment for mu-
nicipal ownership is growing. The
growth of the idea is not surprising
in view of the many and manifest
wrongs of privately owned utilities
toward the public.
with the growing sense of respon-
slbility, the public holds toward IT
self, there is allied belief In itself,
There is felt sentiment that the
voters have the power to check evils
and abuses which have resulted so
far from municipal control of public
utilities. This statement will result
in demand that cities own and man
age every public service institution
which deals with transportation and
with furnishing the necessities of life
to the masses.
Honestly and ably managed, there
is no reason to doubt that better and
more economical results may be given
the public of the big cities under pub
lie ownership than under private con-
troll. When owned privately, utilities
are operated for profits. Under pub
lie ownership, these utilities should
serve the higher purpose of COM

FOR DRINK CURE
EVERY DAY APPEALS COME TO
THE CLEVELAND DIVINE
He Is Making Efforts to Establish a
Clinic for Cure Of Drunkenness
Along With Work of Anti
Suicide Commission.

Cleveland, o., Nov. Nov. 1.-THE
city is going to establish clinic for
the cure OF drunkenness, in connec-
tion with me work of the anti-suicide
commission, according to the an
nouncement made tonight by Rev.
Harris r. Cooley, member >of the
board of public service and OF the
commission
zone half Of all the appeals for
aid that have come to the anti
suicide commission are pathetic pleas
for a drink cure he said. mot a
single day passes in which don't re-
ceive letters begging me to show some
poor drunkard how to become a sober
man. l will establish such cure, but
l cannot begin the work at once,
because the same professional infiu-
ence that was brought to,bear against
the health officers tuberculosis elm
ic will be marshalled against me-"
Cooley is confronted by the opposi-
tion of nearly every doctor In his hos
pital clinic. These physicians, COM
prising some of the most prominent
in Cleveland, give their services to
the city without pay. They will not
tolerate the use of nostrums for the
cure of any disease and Cooley is
threatened with the resignation OF
the entire staff If he permits the use
of a patented drink cure.
"Ie believe that We would be able
to effect a cure in nearly every case
at the City Farm" he said. 81 am
looking every day for announcement
that some drink cure, acceptable to
the medical profession has been dis
covered. Then will lose no time
in building a hospital for inebriates
at the City Farm"

THE Mans Counsel Refuses to Answs,
ouestions-More indictments
In Now York.

New York, Nov 17.--The grand jury
at its session today interrogated At
John p. Dillon, former assemblyman
from Charles r. Murphy's district. 1t
is said that the jurors were anxious
to learn from Dillon something con-
cerning the disappearance of John
Krup, arrested for Illegal voting and
for whom Mr.. Dillon as counsel
with others, representing the home
less floater," put up cash bail OF
$4,000. which Krup has jumped.
Dillon is said to have refused to
answer questions propounded by the
Jurors.
Six more indictments were handed
down by the grand jury today. The
greatest secrecy is maintained as to
the names on the indictments, but
they are believed to be election oil
ficials.
All the contested and void ballots
In the First Assembly district had
been counted before Judge Gelgerich
adjourned supreme court this evening.
The net result of the examination
would seem to indicate a gain of about

were II ballots upon which the coun-
sci disagreed. The judge will pass
upon them tomorrow.
