says: "After the most diligent inquiry
we condemn in unmeasured terms the
cowardly, contemptuous action of
those members of the police force
who, having taken the cath of Office,
failed to do their duty; men who were
paid from money obtained from the
pockets Of the people Of this city to
protect life and property; men who
were ordered by the heads of depart

disperse the mob, and not only failed
to use club, handle pistol, or
raise a voice against the mob and on
the side Of law and order, but some OF

BENCH 3 WILL ACT
MAY IA REBUka FOR JUDGE CO.
ina FOR TELLING WOMAN TO
JUMP IN THE LAxR.

Chicago. Sept 4--Judse Judson 3.
Going Is to be sharply criticised by his
bench associates when the municipal
court judges hold their next regular
monthly meeting. on or hafors Sept
IA.
A number Of the Judges OF the court
have already privately expressed the
opinion that Judge Going is theatri-
cally inclined and overprone to utter
wise saws. 1t is the custom at the
monthly meetings to handle all ques-
tions and individuals without gloves.
Open rebuke is often administered,
and frequently the meeting is one OF
give and take all around.
Many of the judges have already
condemned Judge Goings advice to a
young woman to throw herself in the
lake and his demand that young
man should digest Bryce's American
Commonwealth" as punishment for
vagrancy. These two instances will
be brought up at the next meeting. 1t
will be contended by number. of the
judges that the dignity of the munich
pal court Is lessened by grotesque ut
terances from the bench.
There is no way In which Judge Co
ing can be compelled to cease his prac-
tees. Chief Justice Olson says that
no matter If he felt that Judge Going
should be rebuked he would have no
power to punish him for speech or ac
ton on the bench. The only thing
could do would be TO isolate him to a
district that might be specially created
to bottle a man up There is no neces-
sity for such procedure. If Judge
Going has transgressed in any way
and really doesn't care for sensation
alism, he has already been punished
by the publicity he has received.

Going talking He could order pris

from all sides, The judges feel that
they all belong to sort of family body

Boston, Mass, Sept 4.-The most
brutal crime ever committed in Great
er Boston within the past four years,
was disclosed last night by the dis
covery of the torso of Mrs. Honorah
Jordan, an actress aged % years, Of
Somerville, in trunk in a boarding
house, at Hancock street on Beacon
hill, this city. Later the head and
bones of the limbs were found in the
furnace of the Jordan home at Somer-
vile and the scalp, hair and other

complete confession of the crime. Ac-
cording to Jordan's confession he &C.
cidentally killed his wife Tuesday
night in a quarrel at their home and
becoming desperate over what he had
done, he went out and bought q
butcher knife, razor and shears, cut
up the body and placed the torso in a
trunk. He then planned to take the
steamer Harvard last night for New
York and throw the parts of the body
overheard. The fact that the Har-
ward was laid off owing to an acci-
dent disarranged his plans and he was
obliged to hire nackman to take
the trunk to Boston boarding house
to await a more favorable opportun-
ity.
Discovery Due to Hackman.
The discovery of the crime was due
to the suspicious of the hackman
James Collins, who, thinking the
trunk contained burglars loot. notified
the police, and they went to Jordan s
room, where they found the trunk, but
did not open it. Officers waited the
arrival of Jordan and compelled him
to unlock it. Turning his head, Jor-
dan threw up the cover of the trunk
and then sank back on his knees
burying his face in his hands and sob.

trunk, while pieces of flesh from other
parts of the body were stuffed into
the corners. Tie entire interior o1
