With fifty years of uninterrupted service

Of Station F., at Third avenue and Twenty

CAN'T PUNISH CATTLE DRIVERS.
All irish Prosecutions Falkland Going to
Peasantry.

Special C0be De spdhH 10 he SCN.
DUBLIN, July S.-The anti-grazing prose-
cutions have advanced by steps to the
higher courts without any advantage 30 far
as the Crown is concerned. Several cases
sent to theta ssizes rave been tried by Judges
Of the High Court, but the juries disagreed.
This result was expected by the people
as in the districts where cattle driving
occurs il would be practically impossible
TO get a jury to convict. The cases were
in the first instance dismissed by the Magis-
trates, but were sent forward on infoma-
tons by the Acknowledgement, who pos
sesses further power to send defendants
trials to loyal" counties, where convictions
would be almost certain, but IL Is not ex-
pected that he will take this extreme step.
1t is regarded a. certain that a majority
OF the cattle drivers will experience no
further inconvenience from a legal point
Of view than their appearance before the
bench TO be dismissed.
The cleared ranches are being eagerly
taken up by the Land Commissioners for
division among the people. their owners
realizing that since the lots will be no longer
hired by g~raziers their best plan is to sell
out.

MANILA, July s.-United States Senator
Stone, addressing the Quill Club to-day.
said that Filipino patriotism should be
generously tempered with patience. Every
American, he said. was in sympathy with
the Filipino aspiration for self govern
ment, but the progress must be gradual

The Flipinos should rave the greatest re-
spect and affection for the United States.

ator Stone said the Filipinos had reasonable
complaint with regard to the failure OF the
United States to give them material Justice.
SPANS markets had been eliminated. but
the United States would not furnish other
markets in their stead. The fact was that.
despite the shortage in the production Of
sugar. to meet American consumption the
Fiipinos were put in the same position as

eign countries. which constituted a preju-
dicial discrimination. amounting to mex
cusable injustice.

told several stories Of how he did it. The

tended to set Becker free on Saturday next,
but has decided that no harm would be lone
by holding the youth a prisoner until q
week from Saturday and possibly until the
last Saturday in the month. He said
yesterday:
Il laid the whole ease as the police worked
il up before the Grand Jury and that body
chose to 20 deeper into the case and then
rejected the bill Of indictment. | shall hold
Becker ten days or longer in order to permit
the police to present further evidence.

McCafferty writes to me or comes to me
with stronger and more direct evidence
than hat which the jury has rejected"
The news that he had not been indicted
has not been communicated to Becker
in theQ Queens county Jail: IL is said in Long
Island City that the real reason the Crane
Jury did not indict Becker was because they
thought il best to leave the matter open.
Testimony is said to have been taken which
showed that q person who was familiar with
the Staffeldt family and well known to the
murdered girl disappeared the afternoon
of the murder.
