CRIMINALS AND THE COURTS.

The question of the reversal OF
cases in courts on appeal-largely on
technical or trivial grounds wholly un-
connected with the merits of the
cases referred to has been the cause
of great deal of discussion among
attorneys and people in general There
is no question that a great number
of people in the United States are
losing faith in the courts and that
there are entirely too many new trials
allowed by judges without warrant
A paper was recently read by Dean
Pound of Nebraska before the Ameri-
can Bar association in which the fol
lowing statement was made: I'm the
state courts the proportion of new
trials to causes reviewed, as ascer-
tanned from investigations runs over
40 per cent" A distinguished New
York lawyer in a communication says
that in the late new volume of New
York reports forty-fve cases are re-
corded in which new trials are grant
ed. In one of these cases five trials
have already taken place. In the lat
Texas the states attorney reports
that out of one hundred and sixty
seven cases appealed ninety-four were
reversed and only sixty-seven sustain.
ed. OF the total number of cases thir-
ty-three were capital, and of these
twenty-five were reversed. Accord
ing to this an ordinary criminal has
three chances out of five, and a mur,
derer two out of three, that his Goa
viction will be reversed. There is lit
tie wonder that lynching bees are fire.
quent in Texas when the people have
to confront such a situation. But the
question arises what effect reversals
on such a scale of verdicts slowly and
conscieutiously reached by juries have
on citizens liable to jury duties? but
reversals on technical grounds have
other pernicious effects. Every ruling
becomes a precedent and prosecuting
attorneys, disinclined to court defeat
or the waste of time and energy and
public money, dismiss indictments
which are open to the same objection
or a closely similar one and often
times criminals, especially those with
money and influence, are allowed to
escape.

ROBBED A BANK
In Broad Daylight and
Escaped With $4,000,
After Wounding Mana
ger and Paying Teller.

San Francisco, Oct. Brushing in
to the Gold Gate japanese bank short
ly after the closing hour this after
noon, unknown robbers fatally wound
ed the manager and paying teller,
seized a tray containing $4,000, and
fed before an alarm had been given
The bank had been cleared of Gus
toners, the clerk and watchman had
left, and only Manager Minnakato and
Telle Sasaki remaiLed at the mo-
ment of the holdup.
The front door was unlocked, how
ever, and the robbers entered without
interference. AS Minnakato and Sas-
aki started forward they were beaten
over the heads with pieces of gas
pipe wrapped in newspapers and fell
bleeding to the floor. The robbers
lacked time for systematic search
for money, but snatched up the tray
which lay on the counter in plain
sight. The injured men are dying at
a hospital.
The thieves are believed to be the
same who recently killed two store
keepers by beating them with gas
pipes

RELUCTANT
Are the Cubans to Lay

Taft Promises That
New Governors and
Mayors Will Bring
About Peace.

Havana, Oct. 3.-The actual disarn1
ament of the insurgents will begin to
morrow. There is likely to be some
trouble among few of the bands but
it is thought that the issuance of a
manifesto by Secretary Taft declar-
ing a general amnesty covering the
period from the beginning of the rev.
olution, also promise that new gov
ernors and mayors irrespective of po-
litical character would be appointed
by the secretary will bring about a
peaceful condition of affairs.
Major Ladd of the disarmament
commission, visited Loyanaz Del Cas-.
tillo's quarters today and secured or
ders to the latters chiefs of brigades
to surrender their arms without de-
lay, though they will be allowed to
retain their horses, providing they Sc
cure a document signed by the mem
bers of the commission, describing
their mounts.
WON'T ARREST INSURGENTS.
There has been considerable reluc.
tance among the rebels in giving up
their arms, notwithstanding the re-
quests of their principal leaders, but
the latter brought the positive assur-
ance that Secretary TAFT would not
prosecute or molest any of the in
surgents who surrendered their weap-
ons and returned to their homes. One
of the reasons the rebels have for
their reluctance is that all the author
tiles are still moderates and that the
rural guards still exist to annoy them,
but the provisional government 6s
likely to take steps to see that they
are not molested.
The transport Baltic will leave to-
morrow with ammunition and war
stores, which she will leave at Guam
tanamo, Santiago, Manzanillo, Tunas
and Cienfuegos for the use of the
American soldiers.

UNION LABOR and
OFFICIALS CLASH

Chicago, Oct. 3.-Because the rules
of labor unionism conflict with the
city code five city pay rolls, involv.
ing 500 men, are tied up. The ordi-
nance allows time and half" for
overtime, while the union rules call
for double time" After months of
argument the unions brought the com
missioner of public works to their
terms today, but the rolls failed to
get through the comptroller's office.
The workmen are clamoring for
their pay, but the comptroller says
they brought it all on themselves and
can have nothing until the council a.
nance committee rules on the case.
