state Falls Down.

The governor was placed on trial
week ago, and after the state had
finished its case the evidence against
Carroll was found to be so flimsy
that the whole thing took on the as
pect of farce, and as result the
insurgent press began to back wa
ter and seek to draw out of a case
which could only be discredit to
them. From demanding CAROLS res.
ignation from the ticket they have of
late declared that he ought to be

Efforts to DiscredIt Carroll.

In the republican state convention a
studied effort was made by the in
surgent leaders to ignore Carroll as
Taft was ignored, and the argument
was made that the convention could
not afford to indorse a man who was
under Indictment for criminal libel.
1t developed, however, that the con-
vention hardly dared go so far and as
a compromise the governor was gwen
modest recognition.
The political friends of Carroll
sought to have the trial postponed
until after the election, but this was
not agreeable to the plans &C the in
surgents. Governor Carroll himself
requested an early trial, but this was
not granted either. The plan was to
put the governor on the grill at a
time when it would do him the most
damage.

Judge earker's Argument.


Judge Parker in his closing as9p
ment in defending the governor as
serted with vehemence that Governor
Carroll, in making the reply he did
to John Cownies first written protest
was but answering him and that in so
doing he complied with the request
of Cownie that he publish to the
world the charges against him"
Particular stress was laid by
Judge Parker on the claim Of the de-
Tense that John Cownie wrote his let
ter about Governor Carroll for the
sole purpose of injuring the governor
politically, saying that before Cownie
gave the letter to the press that he
submitted it to the campaign man
ayers of Warren Garst, the opponent
of Governor Carroll for the republi-
can nomination
He also eXpounded to the jury the
belief of the defense that Governor
Carroll was acting entirely within his
legal right and with privilege when
he made answer to Cownie and wrote
the letter for which he was indicted.

Mr.. Cownies conduct in such con.
nection. The jury found in keeping
with these instructions.
The verdict was returned aftef
comparatively brief elaboration, as it
took some time to review all the
evidence. The verdict was expected,
as it was generally conceded that the
state had failed to make case long
before the defense took up it's part.
When the charges were published
by the governor, Cownie went before
the grand jury and declared that if
they were true he should be in the
penitentiary, but if false, the COVER
nor should pay the penalty. CAROLS
Indictment followed a few days later.
Closing Arguments.
The board of control report upon
it's investigation of conditions at
Mitchellville was used almost in it's
entirety by Attorney James Parsons
in his efforts to refute the contention
of the state that Governor Carroll
acted maliciously in publishing his
article of May "a, in which were re-
vealed the charge he made against
John Cownie. He read at length
from what the investigating com
mittee had revealed concerning con-
ditions during the Fitzgerald regime,
and sought to show by this that Gov
ernor Carroll was justified in order
ing the second investigation and Sc
curing evidence of his own Especial
ly did he lay stress upon the fact that
during all this Investigation Cownie
carried Fitzgerald's resignation in
his pocket, and after the latter had
resigned, went to Mitchellville. and,
in an address before the school, re-
ferred to the girls who had testified
against the former superintendent as
traitors.
Shocking Conduct at MitcheIlvilIe.
4 A revolving condition of affairs az
+, the institution was revealed when
Mr.. Parsons read extracts from the
evidence taken by the investigating
committee. Officers of the school
swore that Fitzgerald had been gull
I ty of gross intoxication, and that he
had been intimate with at least one
girl in the institution. Alleged orgies

BIG ALKUBIAK

New York, May 1S.-Al Kubiak stood
up before the onslaught of Sam Lang
ford for two rounds at the Fairmont
Athletic club last night, then Referee
Billy job motioned Kubiak to his cor
ner, a beaten man. 1t was not SO much
the attack Of Langford that brought
about Kubiak's defeat The latter
feared the Boston demon, and when
Langford drove hard blow to the
stomach in the first round Kubiak gasp
ed and decided that the surroundings
were not entirely to his liking. At the
start of the second round Langford
landed a glancing blow on Kusiak's
chin and Kubiak sought bit of rest
on the canvass. He fell on his stomach,
wriggled around as If in pain, rolled
over on his side and finally got up
when Referee job called out "eight"
The black next connected with a left
uppercut and Kubiak took a count of
six. Langford sent Kubiak down a
third time and the members howled
for job to interfere. which he did.
