the Mullane Case Again.

To the Editor OF the Dispatch.
I have just received and read the
full abstract of evidence and the:
printed report of the Supreme Courts
opinion in the case of State VS.. Paris,
commonly known as the Mullane
case, in which they reversed the
Judgment and sentence of the Iron
County Circuit Court and ordered the
defendant discharged on the ground
that there was no substantial evidence
tending to show that he had been
guilty Of rape, and quoted the legal
maxium "volenti non fit injuria." !"
When this decision was first an
nounced you willrecall that the Judge
before whom the case had been tried
in Iron County wrote, and had pub
lished in the papers, a letter in which
he vigorously defended his own
rulings and sharply criticised the Su-
preme Court for this opinion, setting
forth in his letters what he claimed
was fair summary of the evidence
and calling attention to the fact two
Of the parties jointly indicted with
Paris for this crime had actually
pleaded guilty and had been sentenc-
ed, while three or four juries Of the
county had heard the evidence and
all who had heard it had returned q
verdict Of guilty. You will also re-
call that you published an editorial
article about that time in which you
assumed the correctness Of this sum-
mary Of the evidence and severely
criticised the Supreme Court, con-
tending that such decision tended to
bring the courts into public contempt
and scorn. As the members Of the
Supreme Court cannot with propriety
take part in newspaper discussions Of
cases which are pending before them,
or in which they have rendered
opinions, they cannot, therefore, de-
fend themselves or their opinions
when these are unfairly criticised;
and, as it Is the purpose OF the Post
Dispatch to be always fair in its COM
ments, and, as it's colums are always
open for corrections and for the pre-
sentiments Of both sides Of every sub
ject, call your attention to the fol-
lowing record facts which fully justify
the conclusion and opinion Of the Su-
preme Court:
1. The printed record Of the evil
dence in this case shows that the al
legged victim OF the crime herself
practically admitted there Was ne

From Mr.sscoggin.

NY dear Editor:-According to my
promise I am writing you another
letter. Hope to not find the waste
basket. II all our American
citizens had done their duty, as look
at it, the Full Crew Law would not
have been voted down.
have many letters of congratula-
tions on what did to sustain the full
crew, on freight trains, from my
friends and even from State Senators
of Missouri. Now we all know, we
are living at very fast rate to keep
up with all the fast movements Of
steam, electricity and mind of man. l
am proud to see America is keeping
up with the times and hope and trust
that all improvements, both with
steam and electricity and other i'm
provements of Missouri will be to
develop the good of the people and
still continue as there is large space
for Improvement yet.
But as fast as we may go it will not
keep us from rejecting back over our
life and thinking of forty years ago
when we chopped cord wood for Pilot
Knob, and even chopped wood and
made ties for Iron Mountain Railroad,
and the Iron Mountain would be owing
us from $40. 90 to $4,000, and we would
have to walk and buy our months
groceries and pack them back on our
backs this long twelve miles to sup
port my wife and one child and my
self. If the young men of today would
have this burden to do they would
think it very hard proposition. As
I would return in the evening as tired
as I was, l would think and hum to
myself, "Home Sweet Home," in our
little log hut. If had not taken ad-
vantage of the improvements as it
appears in our country today l would
have been walking this trip again,
suppose.
I am enclosing yon letter from
Louisiana that / would like you to
publish with this.
Yours truly,

The Athletics showed to better ad-

game OF the series. But they are
playing doggedly as If in desperation
and not with dash and confidence
Strunk is out of the Athletic lineup

that may be played Strunk strained

for two hits in the first game OF the
series, but was not much satisfaction
to the team in the second, striking
out twice AS team the Athletics
have gathered but fifteen hits In three
games, against twenty-seven for the
Braves. Oldring and Barry have yet
to get a hit. The Mackmen have con-
nected for only seven extra base
knocks, four Of them coming yester-
day. when Murphy doubled twice and
McInnis and Baker one each. The
Braves have driven out eight extra
base hits, their total OF course, being
swelled by the hefty swatting OF Hank

and drawn four bases on balls. His
hits include three doubles, q triple,
home run and single.

small percentage the chances Of maxi
ing q play. So far as actual play
goes the difference between the teams
is the difference between Schang and
Gowdy. Schang: il catching wretched

judgment although he handled Bush's
terrific speed yesterday with more
Judgment than he has shown hereto
fore. Gowdy is catching magniicently,
handling his pitchers well. and throw
ing fairly we'll His hitting. which has
been the sensation Of the series Is
wonderful. He is hitting all kinds OF
pitching. driving against slow and
fast balls. The Athletics are every
one going well save Schang and Old
ring in all departments, and Baker ct
bat. Baker has been the joke of the
series. The worst feature Of the Ath-
letics is that they are hitting at bad
balls and in untimely fashion. Either
they are slipping or Stallings' pitch
srs are outguessing them at every
turn. The generalship yesterday was
wonderful, especially toward the last
when the Athletics were driven back
into the defensive After Gowdy, in
the twelfth, smashed the ball into the
bleachers for two base hit, Stall
:ngs rushed Mann to run for Gowdy
because OF his speed and sent Gilbert
up to bat for James. who had been
summoned to the slab because pinch

almost wept and protested on being
taken out and fought for q chance to

ordered him given a base on balls to
increase the chances for force play
at third. Moran pushed down the tell
ing bunt and Bush made q desperate
effort to throw out Mann At third

on to left and let Mann romp home.
Stallings out-flgured on pitching. He
believed Rudolph would pitch. then

spots, pitched great ball. 1t was Ty~
ler's blunder in throwing to second
in the tenth inning instead OF to first

were scored by the Athletics.
