This little village of 500 inhabitants.
the county seat of Essex, is all astir
over the advent of the district attorney
of New York county and his retinue,
who came here to attend the final hear
ing on the King committee charges be-
fore Commissioner Richard L. Hand,
a native of tho town. MIR. Jerome, ac-
companied by Assistant District Attor-
ney Caravan, arrived last night. Frank
lin Pierce, counsel for the King COM
mittee, was on the same train.
The hearing to-day was held in the
county courthouse. AS soon as pro-
ceedings opened Mr. Pierce filed a
volumnous brief. Mr.. Jerome then be-
gan to sum up.
The brief submitted by Franklin
Pierce, counsel for the cofnplainants.
declared that every thoughtful man
knows that conditions in New York
county are "a hundred times more
dangerous to the welfare of society
than murder itself" and that "a graver
calamity could not visit the people of
New York than the continuation of the
evil example and the disgraceful con-
duct of William Travers jerome in
the office of public prosecutor of New
York county.
The brief is voluminous document
of nearly 200 printed pages, In which
the charges against the district attor-
ney are reviewed in a most exhaustive
way In addition to that, Mr.. Pierce
argued that even the investigation
of these charges the district attorney
has conducted in a manner warrant
ing his removal from office. He de-
clared that Mr.. Jerome, all through
the examination, threatened witnesses
with ociirinal prosecution and used
other methods of that kind"
Neglect in Jury-Fixins Case.
On the first of the eighteen charges
Mr. Pierce takes the ground that the
district attorneys failure TO investigate
and prosecute the alleged jury fixing
in the Metropolitan Street Railway
cases was case of neglect of duty
which was wholly ineXcusable.
The extent of the existence of brib-
cry of jurymen, bribery of court off,
Gals, tampering with witnesses and
controlling by criminal methods the
conduct of the whole court said he,
lis of the highest Importance, because
a universal condition of crime of that
sort is IN ana OF itSell notlce TO tne
district attorney. and its continued
prevalence over long period of time,
accomplished by great eXcesses, makes
it easy for him to procure facts show
ing criminal intent"
Continuing, Mr.. Pierce quoted the
testimony OF Tillinshast, who served
as a juror in many cases and who was
carried over one term to another on
many occasions. and says. HE tells
us he received money for every case
in which he sat as a juror for the Net
ropoltan and describes wildly the
manner in which it was received"

ing pal" is searching for him to
communicate to him the news of his
good fortune. An old mining claim
which the two men owned jointly in
the state of Sonora. Mexico, has
panned out richly of late, and Dodsen
says the men can get their own price
for the property.
After prospecting in the mountains
OF Mexico for many years, the men
lost track of each other. abandoning
a mine they owned in the northern
state of Mexico. Dodsen returned,
however, and renewed his claim. and
the mine began to pay out. Now, Dod-
sen says, it is the richest mine in all
Mexico. Dodsen wrote repeatedly to
Fitzpatrick, but obtained no reply. so
he has come north to find his old pail
if he remains with the living, and take
him back to the scene of their early
hopes and disappointments, which is
yielding a golden harvest, after many
long years
Inquiries in this vicinity have failed
to reveal the whereabouts OF Fitz-
patrick, and Dodsen will prosecute his
search elsewhere in Iowa, still believ-
ing he will find his lost partner.
