JUSTICE HOUGH IS
DANGEROUSLY ILL
STRIKE, DURING RECESS FOR
LUNCH At THE HAW-
THORNE TRIAL

NEW YORK. Jan. 10.--~DuriuE the
noon recess Of the United states ais
trict court this afternoon Judge has
NJ. Hough, who has been presiding
over the Julian Hawthorne case for
the past two months. was suddenly
stricken with acute indigestion While
at luncheon in his chambers. His con-
ditjon became so grave tina, ne was
removed 30 the HudsonStreet beceiv-
ing hospital. A definite statement Of
his condition could not be obtained
this evening.
The case over which Judge Hough
was presiding began 18th Of NoVem-
her last, and after hearing fifteen wit
nesses the government rested it's case
on Wednesday last. 1t is estimated
the defense will occupy another month
8t least In the event of Judg Hough's
inability 10 resume his duties in q
reasonable time. lawyers In the case
are Of the opinion that another Judge
Of the same court would have to de-
eide the disposition of the case, al =
though 1t Is generally conceded thai
a new trial will be ordered.
Ii was also stated that the four de-
PENDANTS could not be tried together
again, owing to three Of the I'VE
counts preferred against them In the
Indictment having been dismissed IN
the case Josiah Quincy, former mayor
Of Boston. He would have TO be tried
separately, while the other three de-
PENDANTS. Julian Hawthorne, Albert
Freeman and DR.. william J. Morton,
would be tried together.
Judge Hough has presided over
some Of the most important govern
ment suits. He was born in Ph'ladel-
phia. May IS, 1853. and Is q gradu-
ata Of Dartmouth. He was appoint
ed United states district Judge by
President Roosevelt on June q, 1895.

NEW YORK COTTON.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1o.--The South
appears to be full OF money, some
rather eXtravagant statements were
made today respecting the enlarge
meut OF vaults which might possibly
mean banking facilities TO receive
and hold an enormous volume of
money resulting from the money re-
suits OF crop cotton which has
been very nearly marketed. ThiA
consideration need not reflect a fact
which has not been considered az a
market influence at all, unless It may
suggest that the remnant of the crop
may be strongly held This Is gen,
orally conceded In fact there are q
great number of producers In the
South perfectly able to hold the staple
production for higher market
should they choose to consider the
opportunity favorabls. After all they
in the aggregate. that Is. the South
ern planters, have very little over
one million bales to offer TO the world
for the next eight months. This is
really very small matter compared
with the CROP which has already
been marketed 20 the extent of 49,
600, 900 bales. OF course, this Ii q
supreme bull argument.
If the market showed anything to-
day II evidenced some disinclination
OF the bears to follow up an advan-
$aga which they previously considered
important. It was a market showing
en- upsurning tendency and actuslly
whorts were the first TO discover this
fact That IL was sufficient to give
Abe market strong undertons was avs-
denced In that that side OF the mar
Get had become impTessively dam
Rerous. This idea was suggested Ia
this column recently.
The Weekend statistics, broadly
speaking. showed that very nearly rs
per cent less cotton is coming from
the farms than for corresponding
dates last season- But on the other
hand the worlds spinners seem 70 DO
taking more than an equal amount
ana exports are only about 4 per
cent under the corresponding period
last year since September Let. These
thingg are in the pubic MIND snd
must remain there, and market prices
for the staple will surely be in"
f7uenced by such considerations

Quaint COnceit,

Matthew Arnold's Olympian a
ner was not intended to be taken Sc
~riously. When the poets air was
most Olympian, his clear eye had its
very kindliest twinkle"
The speaker was Mrs. Caroline
Earle White, the Philadelphia women
who founded the American anti-vivi-
section movement.
My friend Stephen Coleridge, the
English NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS." she con-
tinued, "entertained Arnold often. The
poet was a great friend of little John
ME Coleridge, an urchin of four. The
poet PRETENDED to Johnnie and actually
made him believe that he was the
little boys horse.
He kept up this joke for several
years. In fact Matthew Arnold often
sent the youngster books of fairy tales
with the inscription:
Johnnie Coleridge. from his affec-
tomato horse"

SUBLIME FAITH IN DEMOCRACY

We are bothered with people who want to buy an interest in the Courier. We are paving out the interest right along, and we are too old and "sot in our ways" to be harnessed up with any young bronchos who mlght turn out to be spineless democrats. w e really never cared much about money, knowing that its pur- chasing power does nor extend beyond the short span ot man s life on this planet. Hence, it is very likely that we will continue to run the Courier until such times as the higher powers call us to join the great Democratic majority on the evergreen shores ot eternity.-Prescott Courier.
