J. ovERToN PAINE GETS OFF.
Not Enough Evidence to Hold Al
legged Stock Tipster.

NEW YORK, August 29-Vice Chancellor
Howell in chancery chambers, Newark has
discharged j. Overton Paine. who was
brought before him on writ of habeas
corpus Paine was arrested last week by
Detective Sergt. Frank Tuite of the New
ark detective bureau, charged with obtain
ing money under false pretenses He was
released in the custody Of his counsel, Ralph
E. Lum. who obtained the writ. The vice
chancellor in giving his decision said:
Il think that the complaint does not
charge Paine with the commission of crime
In words which would be sufficient in an in
dictment for the offense attempted to be
charged. The false representations de-
scribed in the complaint are representations
that he is In possession of knowledge con-
cerning the future of certain stocks, and 1t
is charged that he disseminated circulars for
the purpose Of obtaining money Of persons
unknown to the complainant Those state
ments are not sufficient enough to charge
the defendant with the commission of any
crime to the Jurisdiction of the state.
But beyond all this looking at the testi-
mony that was adduced under authority Of
the statute for the purpose of satisfying the
mind Of the court as to the reasonable prob
ability that a crime was committed, I must
say that I do not see how the testimony
made any addition to the substance of the
statements contained in the complaint"

entirely successful. No replies had been
received at the State Department to the
note telegraphed to the presidents of the
republics by President Roosevelt The re-
plies will be sent to the President person.
ally and by him transmitted to the State
Department. This fact coupled with the
uncertainty of telegraphic communication
at this time, may delay the receipt of the
replies for several days. President Roose-
velts note, theref fore, will not be made pub-
lie here until 1t is possible to publish also
the attitude of the Central American re-
publicS.
Minister Corea of Nicaragua said todav
that he believed that all of the republics
would consent to holding a conference and
that the conference would be held in wash
ington. He thought the decision would he
in favor of Washington for the reason that
the strained relations between GuatemaIa
and Mexico would make 1t inadyisab bIe to

reason that Honduras had no diploma tic

JUMPED ON "GUS" KARGER
HISTORICAL ANACHRoNISM, Or
WORSE, THINKS FORAKER.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CINCINNATI, Ohio. August Ex-senator
Foraker has issued statement in answer
to attacks made on his stand on the Elkins
bill, charging that he was instrumental in
having the Imprisonment clause eliminated.
The statement is in part as follows:
What a Cincinnati paper publishes from
Mr.. Karger T. Washington correspondent,
purporting to be the parliamentary record
of the legislation now known as the Elkins
law, is an illustration Of how easy it is for
a man, no matter how well meaning he
may be- to be mistaken. The Elkns DILL.
as to which Mr.. Bacon, quoted by Mr..
Karger, testified was drawn by an
attorney of the Pennsylvania railroad and
introduced by Senator Elkins, was an en-
tirely different bill from that which after
ward became and is now the Elkins law.
Blame It on Knox.
Senator Elkins introduced two bills, the
first of which was the one Mr. Karger
writes about, and that bill was killed in
the committee. If the attorney for the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company drew any
Elkins bill it was that bill which the COM
mittee rejected, and not the second Elkins
bill, which the committee favored and
which became what Is now known as the
Elklns law.
Il do not know who prepared the original
draft of the Blkins law. If my recollection
is not at fault, I once heard Senator Knox
say he did It,
THE repeal of the Imprisonment clause
may have been agreeable to the railroads.
But whether 1t was not, so far as can
recall, neither any railroad man nor any
representative of any railroad appeared be-
governed in what we did in that respect
wholly by what the interstate commerce
commissioners, who were charged with the
duty of enforcing the law, recommended"

McsHERRY CRITICALLY ILL.
Maryland Judge in Great Pain at His
Home at Frederick.

FREDERICK. Md, August 29.-Chief
Judge James McSherry of the Maryland
court of appeals who has been sick since
early in January last, is now very i'll and
his condition Is acknowledged to be critical.
The judge, who spent the summer at Brad
dock Heights, is now at his home in Fred
erick. His Illness which has been due to a
complication of diseases, amounts now to
general breakdown, and a rapid enlarge
ment Of the liver in the past two days has
caused him much suffering.
Judge McSherry was taken to Johns
Hopkins Hospital, in Baltimore, last winter
for treatment, and after spending month
or SO at that institution was considerably
improved He then returned to Frederick
Judge McSherry has not attended any of
the sessions of the court of appeals since
he was first taken Ill, and he complained
more Of his inability to work than of his
ailment. He would frequently say that all
he had to complain about was the fact that
he was not back at work. He has been a
worker all his life, and his enforced idle
ness was very irksome and annoying to
him.
Judge McSherry comes Of distinguished
ancestry. His paternal ancestors came
from Ireland, the first of them Patrick
McSherry: emigrating to this country in
,145. Judge McSherry was born at Fred
erick, December 80, 1S42. He acquired his
early education at ST. Johns Literary In
stitute, Frederick, after which he went to
Mount St. Mary's College, where he re-
mained until June 1861. He had completed
the course, but did not remain to receive
his degree. His synpathies were with the
south, and, in consequence of his display of
his principles, he was placed under arrest
and confined in Fort McHenry, though only
for short time.
In September. 1851 he began to read law
In the office of his father at Frederick, and
was admitted to the Frederick county bar
February 9, 1864. His practice grew to be
very large
Judge McSherry owed his first position on
the bench to an appointment. A few days
before the election in 1887 Chief Judge
Richie died and Gov. Henry Lloyd HIM
self now judge, appointed Mr. McSherry
to succeed him.
He was nominated for the position by
the democrats of his circuit. comprising
was elected He served as an associate
justice of the court of appeals until Jam
uary n, 1896 when he was designated by
Gov. Lloyd Lowndes to be chief judge of
the court, to succeed to the vacancy caused
by the death of Judge John NJ Robinson
This designation held good until November
8. 1902 when he was redesignated chief
judge by Gov. John Walter Smith
The term Of fifteen years to which he was
elected expired in 1902, but under an act
of the legislature he served until the gen.
eral election the following year, when he
was renominated by democrats There
was considerable opposition in his own
party in Frederick county to his re-elec-
ority was not as large as had been expect
ed Gov. Warfield designated him as chief
Judge. His term of fifteen years will ex-
pire in 1918.

there is to be competition between
