Montero was proclaimed president
by the troops of Guayaquil last No

ship of the provisional government

hacked off his head and burned it.

surance, etc, and when this is done
there isn't any great residue of net
profits
During the year of 1871 a total
OF 3.SSS tons of ice were manufaC-
tured and sold. Figuring with the
Slo.05l 81 as the basis OF profit the
net profit per ton amounted 10 81. 50.
Yet with these figures obtainable
Maypr Todd boldly declared that if
the Hity owned its own ice plant il
couhi have the people 100000 a
year
In making his startling declaration
of ice-COst-cutting and his recon-
mendatiun that the city own its own
ice plant in order to save the people
100000 annually. Mayor Todd failed
to point out the fact that the city
womb have TO make an investment
of something like SS0,0O0 to $780,
600 lin a plant that would contain
more than one unit, so II one set of
machinery was knocked out tempor-
arily another unit could take care of
the demand
With an investment like this, with
the people using LESS than 100000
worth of ice annually. with the oper-
alton of plant. interest. taxes, etc, to
take care of, we simply can't figure
out how the mayor is going to meet
the demand and SAVE a sum in EN-
CESS of the TOTAL amount the peo-
pie are now paying out annually for
ice.
1t looks to us as II the mayor
might have investigated the situation
thoroughly before making such
claims as he made in his annual re-
port The figures and reports OF
the ID ht company were accessible te
his exeellency, as they were to The
Sentinel But then. some one is Ii
able to say to us, oh the figures
are just little matter of detail, "
and make us realize that the looking
out after details is never bothered
with by the majority of the reform
ers. A broad. sweeping, attractive
statement that looks mighty good on
paper and sounds fine from the ad-
vertising standpoint doesn't need any
matter-of-fact details or solemn-col-
ored feasibility TO substantiate it.
Municipal ownership of everything
whether that thing is paying while
privately owned or not-is the song
of the radical reformer. We have
the municipal owned wood pile. now
We are to have the municipal owned
ice plant: wonder If the mayor will
call attention to the need for a mu-
nicipal owned lumber yard next?

attempt to Withhold J. j. Mcnamara s
check books from the government in
vestigation was blocked today by
Judge Anderson, who directed Leo NJ
Rappahort, attorney, to appear at
once with the evidence required.
The counsel for Mcnamara claimed
all the checkbooks, stubs of checks,
etc, that Mcnamara had given him
were privileged communications and
couldn't be demanded as evidence.
District Attorney Miller contend
ed that the checks would show what
Mcnamara did with the $1,000 a
month allowed him by his union.
That money was expended by him to
transport dynamite and pay the eN-
penses of the men who blew up
places" he said.
Judge Anderson ruled that the
check book was as material as knife
or revolver with which murder had
been committed. Attorney Rapaport
went before the grand jury later and
announced he had testified that the
check books were not liz his posses

 Now Prosecuting Attorneys Eio- quenoe Talked Jury Into ver- dict of AoquittaI

l A good story is going the rounds of court circles, illustrat- ing the effects of cloquencc on an leverage jury. Of course, every body in the Third division knows lJ. Lindley Green, the deputy dis trict attorney, prosecutor before the floating court" and old man eloquent of this neck O the woods.
 MT. Green, while a hard pros ecutor, is very much opposed to capital punishment, and would do almost anything to keep a man from being hung, having a feel ing that the blood of the con- demned would forever remain as a stain and reminder of Judicial murder. During the session of the floating court" at Dillingham;, a Mexican named Anastasio Castil- To, was indicted for murder in the first degree for having killed a fellow countryman.
 During the trial which cnsucd, as the testimony against the de- fendant came in strong and clear ly, it. was noticed that J. Lindley was becoming uneasy, and a look of troubled pain came over him, which became more and more mo- liccablc as witness after witness fastened home io the jury the fact that cold bloodcd murder had been committed.
 When the evidence was con cludcd, J. Lindlcy arose before the twelve men. good and true, and began an eloquent plea for the vindication of the majesty of tn" law. pleading with the jury to find the prisoner al the bar guilty of manslaughter. using the best of his ingenuity to show that the crime committed was at the worst, manslaughfcr in the first degree. . Of course Judge Tucker, for the defense, didn't overlook a point, and simply emphasized the points made by tho persecution favorable tn the defense.
 In due course inc jury were charged by the court and were sent out tO deliberate on a yer dict. After being out a few hours tn" men who held inc faic of the prisoner. returned with a verdict of ac1uiItal.
 The prnSrcniOr is still wonder ing what had happened. while thr iurymcn are still puzzled to un- derstand the attitude of inc man who was representing the majesty of the law.
