auIttal Of ChanONAlI.

RIvERHEAD, L. l., April 2o.-Frank Chan
owsd, who has been on trial for the murder
Of Bianco, a junkmAn, near North Belport,
on Nov last, was acquitted late last night
after the jury had been out about eight
hours and half. Addressing the Jurors
Justice wilmot NJ. Smith said:
Never before have said anything TO q
Jury about a verdict, but your verdict IL
about the worst miscarriage OF justice /

10 the people Of the State Of New York that
a murder can be committed in Suffolk
county without redress. 1t is disgrace
TO Suffolk county. You may go
Chan owsd was Immediately set free and
he will leave here to-day.
One Of the jurors is quoted as saying that
he thought there was a reasonable doubt
as to Chanowsh's guilt. The jury Is said
TO have stood six for aoquittal and six for
a verdict Of murder in the first degree
ON the first ballot A ballot taken FIVE
hours later Ia said TO have resulted in nine
votes for acuutta and three for murder
In the flrst degree. On the final ballot the
minority yielded and verdict OF acqmttal
was reached.
The principal witness against ChSnowsh
was Rosie DTobatslCy, who alleged that she
was an eve witness Of the murder OF the
finlunan. She swore that she saw Chanow-
ski hit the junlman on the head with club
or some kind Of weapon. Bianco fell and
Chanowsh, she alleged, dragged the body
from the roadway into the woods where
II was found. The woman said that she
ran away and said nothing about the affair
for a couple Of days.
The story originally told by the Drobat,,
sky woman was that she first discovered
a pool OF blood in the roadway and followed
a bloody trail into the woods until she
came upon the body.
Josie Rocko, II years old, and her brother,
Michael, testified that they had seen Chanow-
sld and the junlman together on the morn

SMITHS WIN AND LOSE.

the Letters Yet.

H. r. Limburger, counsel for j. Morgan
Smith and his wife, a sister Of Nan Pattcr-
son, may inspect the minutes Of the Grand
Jury In tho conspiracy indictment against
them, but Judge Foster in General Sessions
overruled yesterday the demurrer 70 the
indictment and denied the motion 20 get
possession Of the letters and other property
taken from the Smiths when they we're
arrested at Cincinnati. The witnesses be-
fore the Grand Jury have all testified In
the Nan Patterson trial.
In granting the motion for leave to in
spect the Grand Jury minutes, Judge Foster
said.
The defendants have been indicted
without opportunity Brightly, because they
we're without the STATED TO examine tho
witnesses against them, and thus aoquaint
themselves with the nature Of the charge
against them. There Is reasonable doubt
whether they knew Of the pending Of the
charge
In denying the motion for the return Of
the letters taken from the Smiths In Gin
cinnati, Judge Foster said:
The defendants have an adequate remedy
at law, and the question Of title and other
important issues involved should not be
passed upon in this summary manner.
Judge Foster said that the remedy was
to apply TO the Supreme Court, adding that
he couldn't see any good reason why the
Smiths should have the letters.
Nan Patterson was visited by her coun-
eel yesterday. She was cheerful and con-
tinued TO repeat how pleased she was with
the jury
Justice Gaynor adjourned court at Flush
ing last evening without giving out his
decision In the matter Of the j. Morgan
Smith letters. He may render his decision
In a day or two in Brooklyn.

MORTGAGE TAX LAW GOOD
Justice Gieger1ch Hands Dosgn De-
ciaon affirming Constitutionality.

Justice Giegerich in the Supreme Court, yes
tefday handed down decision holding that
the Mortgage Tax Law is constitutional The
decision was rendered on an application by MI
chael H Eisnan for a peremptory writ of
mortgage without payment of the imposed
by the law.
Eisman contended that the law violates the
constitutiou-of the State inasmuch il had
not on its passage by the Legislature, the as
sent of two thirds of the members OF each
house which is requisite for the passage Of
every bill appropriating the public moneys or
property for local. or private purposes. In Sec
ton 307 of the act it is provided that half OF
the net amount collected in the counties en-
braced in New-York City shall be transmitted
to the State Treasurer and the other half paid
to the credit of the city of NewYork to re-
duce the taxation. This section, Eisman as
serted rendered the consent of two-thirds OF the
members of the Senate and Assembly neces-
sary.
An objection that the act violates the con-
stitution in denying the equal protection of the
law to the holders of mortgages recorded after
July 1, 1906, is, Justice Giegerich holds, not
we'll taken. Upon this point he says
IT is true that the law bears unequally, in the
sense that it applies to mortgages recorded after
the date mentioned and not to those previously
recorded; but such an inequality of operation
lis more or less incident to any tax law, and is
not the form of evil to which the constitutional
amendment referred to applies
After citing several decisions of the Supreme
Court of the United States upholding the tax
ing powers of the sovereign States,

Officers at the Brooklyn Navy Yard yesterday
were congratulating Lieutenant c. P. Nelson,
U s. NJ on his official exoneration from blame
in the case of the collision, February g. 1904
between the torpedo boat Winslow, which he
then commanded. and the ferryboat America
of the Csrand-st line. The accident occurred in
the East River, both vessels being damaged, but
no one was injured After a court of inquiry,
Lieutenant Nelson. who was unable to produce
witnesses who might have testified in his favor,
was reprin2anded for "culpable negligence and
inefficiency" and was reduced three numbers on
the list of lieutenants
His personal record in the navy, and his ex-
ce1Jent work in the handling of submarine tor
pedo boats, notably the Plunger, in which Presi-
dent Roosevelt recently took trip beneath the
waters of Oyster Bay, apparently caused re-
consideration of his case, for November he
received from Washington an order containing
q full and complete pardon and informing him
that his name had been restored to its original
place on the navy list The document was
signed by the President.

case while in Buffalo.
He said also:
am of the opinion that the examinations of the
German Bank made under the direction of Mr..

and good judgment.
As to the charge that the superintendent per
