trial of Kate Dimaio, for arson was

trial of Kate Dimaio, for arson was
resumed.
Prosecutor Fithian asked permis-
sion of the court to charge prisoner
and called up James Sutton, charged
with assault and battery.
Sutton retracted his plea of guilty
previously entered, and entered a plea
of non-vult. Sentence will be imposed
Friday morning at $50 O'Clock.
Resuming the trial of Kate Dimaio
David Pierce was on the stand, de-
scribed how he and Mr.. Fort had been
watching the barn on Monday looking
for Jack" Pierce.
Constable Ed. E. Reeves was called
and related the circumstances of the
arrest of John Pierce, and the arrest
of the little girl. Mr.. Reeves was not
permitted to tell of the admission of
the little girl as to her setting the
fire.
Constable Weisman, of Carmel, who
brought the little girl to Justice Field
ing's office after Reeves had actually
arrested her, was next put on the
stand, but he also, was not yet al
lowed to relate the child's admissions.
This proceeding was in accordance
with the objections of Mr.. Loder, the
| child's attorney, who was fighting to
keep the girls admissions out as
evidence. Mr.. Loder placed the girl
in the stand to prove her age; she
said she would be IL years old next
August; she admitted that she had
made statement to Mr.. Reeves and
to Mr.. Weisman.
The prosecutor was then about to
recall Constable Reeves to testify as
to her confession. Mr. Loder earnest
ly objected to the offer of the prose-
cutor and he proceeded to argue his
objections fully. They were opposed
by Mr.. Fithian in a lengthy reply.
The court overrule1 the objection
as relating to all but the third fire.
Mr.. Reeves was then recalled to relate
her statement as to the setting of the
third fire on Monday, April 10th.
Mr.. Reeves said Katie said that she
set the third fire. Asked her how she
did it, she said she struck a match
and threw it over into the manger.
Asked her where she got the matches
and she said she found them on the
floor.
John Pierce and George Pierce gave
some evidence, and the state rested.
Mr.. Loder asked that the jury
be directed to return verdict of ac-
quittal on the grounds that she is
under the age of accountability.
The motion was overruled, and Mr..
Loder, who had made a gallant fight
for the little girl, opened his defense,
which he said would be total denial
of the charge.
He called Kate Dimaio and put her
on the stand to tell her story. She
said, in explanation of how she came
to charge the fire on John Pierce, that
Jew boy from Carmel, had told her
to do so, and posted her how to say
that John Pierce was there with an
oil can and a butcher-knife, and would
kill the COWS and burn up all the
barns.

FINES PAY EXPENSES
OF NATIONS JUSTICE.
Attorney Generals Annual Report Says
Department Was Self Sustaining.

Attorney General Wickersham in his
annual report states that in the last
fiscal year his department has been
self sustaining. The attorney general
states that during the year little
more than $4,0O0,000 in the nature of
fines was collected by his department
and that this more than paid the ex-
penses.
Last year the department of justice
collected Sc, 100000 in fines. 1t was not
quite enough to balance the expenses
Of different bureaus of the department.
The fines collected in both years were
from half hundred different sources,
but the bulk of them came from timber
and public land cases and trust prose
cutions.
The report contains a statement
showing just what has been accom-
plished in the line of trust and 9th
er prosecutions the department has
brought during the year.
On the three dissolution actions pend
ing, the powder trust. the plumbers
trust and the harvester trust, the at
torney general says no definite decisions
have been reached. He said he could
not say at this time, because he did
not know, whether all three of the cor
porations named would dissolve with
out litigation. He said the negotiations
between the department and the cor
porations looking to dissolution with
out any more court fighting were on
still.
From other sources in the depart
ment it was learned that the powder
trust and plumbers trust cases prob
ably would be concluded in a few
weeks and that the government and
the trust officials had about reached an
agreement.
There is considerable doubt, how
ever, about the government and har-
vester trust ever coming to terms. The
government will not recede from its
declaration last summer when the off,
cials of the harvester trust first made
overtures for voluntary dissolution
1t was said at the department that the
indications are that the harvester peo-
pie will not agree to the governments
scheme Of dissolution, but will fight
the case in the courts. The government
has its bill in equity drawn up and
ready to file.

NEW ANAESTHETIC.
Boston Surgeon overeomes Disadvan-
tage of Ether.


Boston Surgeon overeomes Disadvan-
tage of Ether.
Ether, the adoption Of which has
revolutionized surgery in the last half
century, may soon be superseded as an
anaesthetic as a result of the remark
able experiments being made by DIR.
Frederic j. Cotton, Boston surgeon.
By combination Of gaseous elements
of the air containing about half the
proportion of oxygen in the earth's at
mosphere DR.. Cotton has succeeded in
producing anaesthesia not only with
out the slightest danger OF discomfort
to the patient, but so agreeable that
the patient is unconscious of what is
being done.
Technically speaking, DR.. Cotton
calls his anaesthetic nitrous oxide di-
luted with oxygen" He has already
used it in operating on seventy-five
private patients Several of those cases
were so grave that the nausea and
surgical shock" which would have fol-
lowed the use of ether would have
been fatal. Yet with the use Of "doc-
tored air" as the new anaesthetic might
be called, the serious operations were
performed with absolute safety, and
the patients are perfectly well.
Appliances for the use Of the "doc-
tored air" are being installed in several
of Boston's principal hospitals. The
experiments have been made so quietly
that few outside the medical profession
have been aware of the tremendous
Importance of DIR. Cotton's discoveries.
