Blow to Defense.
Refusing to strike down the entire
array of talesmen serving in the graft
grand jury, because Harrison Nesbit
the former national bank examiner
was alleged 10 be incompetent to
serve. as he is not a qualified elector
under the act of 1867, Judge Robert
S. Frazer to-day administered another
blow at the breastworks of the de-
Tense The question was raised by
Attorney w. J. Brennan, counsel for
several of the indicted Councilmen.
In his decision. Judge Frazer takes
the ground that the act does not re-
quire jurors to be qualified voters. and
thus the provisions of the legislative
act do not apply. lte contends that
even though Nesbit was not qualified
elector, mis- disqualification would be
purely legal one, and one that would
not tend TO impeach his capacity. IN
tegrlty or impartiality.
Judge Frazer takes the ground that
the provisions of the act of 1851 are

! oversight though man who is not
competent is chosen to act. and does

"To hold otherwise. especially after

Washington, Nov. 30. - President
Taft has a great liking for Richmond,

reciprocated by great many citizens
nj the Virginia capital but like most
other Southerners they do not allow
their personal feelings to lead them
away from the Democracy when 1t
comes to casting their ballots.

self recently has told friends this
story which was related to him by
Deacon" ]. NJ. Hemphill, editor of the

Hemphill sat at a banquet beside a
fellow citizen and Democrat who was
loud in his praise of Mr.. Taft.
Taft said this man to the deacon,

much"
Would YOU vote for him If he were
nominated again." asked the deacon.
"Td see him in hell first" was the
answer.

Seven Men, Penned In office at Wins
ted, Escape Alive.

Winsted, Conn, Nov. 20. -' Seven
men employed in the freight office or
the New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroad, Including W. C. Perry, the 10
cal agent, had a narrow escape from
death last evening, when a freight
train drove two loaded freight cars
into the freight station.
Gagged like rats in trap only for
the fact that the humping block in
front of the office swerved when the
cars struck it, throwing them side
wise into the station, saved the men
from being crushed. Their desks were
moved, the heavy safe thrown half
way across the office and the flooring
sprung so that gaps four and five inch
cs wide appeared.
The train at the time of the accident
was being made up, and cars had been
shunted downgrade when wrong
switch was thrown, sending he cars
into the station. Only one man was
hurt.
