SO the picture will be cakes and ale
to the Liberator, and that journal
will be strongly tempted to repro
duce It, once 1t learns that there is
such picture at the Academy. The
work seems to explain so much about
juries past and present. Only it
should have been better painted.
No Dispute M to Prizes.
The winning of the $1,000 Altman
prize by Leon Kroll's "Sleep" will not
be disputed. 1t had almost no compe-
tition. One could not worry well have
allowed it to the sweet ''Nymphs Sur
prised" Of Francis c.. Jones, which
arouses only the faint conjecture in
ones mind as to whether Mr.. Jones
did not mean "Nymphs Astonished"
rather than "Nymphs Surprised" or
to Mr. Wayman's "Art Jury" or to
Mr.. Hassam's Sun Room" This last,
TO be sure did get the second Altman
prize Of $500, and I wonder why 1t did
even that. 1t seems a still life rather
than a figure composition. The mass
ing is so insecurely achieved that the
table at one side of the picture seems
TO be the whole thing, and it is only
later that one realizes that figure
was meant to balance the table in in
terest at the other side of the compo-
sition. 1t does not do that. The paint
ing has an agreeable, unworried touch.

FOUND GUILTY AND REMOVED
 FROM OFFICE

BOSTON, Feb. 21. = The supreme court has removed District Attorney Pelletier of Suffolk county after find ing him guilty on several counts on the charges of malfeasance of his office.
 The court ruling was on charges brought by State Attorney General Allen that Pelletier had been party to the conspiracy to extort money, under threats of prosecution and to suppress indictments. Senator Reed of Missouri defended him.
 The trial of District Attorney Jo- seph c. Pelletier of Suffolk County, before the full bench of the Massachu sets supreme court, which began on December 27 last and ended January 24, was the second hearing of the kind in the states history and in- volved 32 specifications of alleged "malfeasance, misfeasance and non feasance in office" formulated by the grievance committee of the Boston Bar Association and by Attorney Gen. eral J. Weston Allen. Less than year ago Nathan A. Tufts was re- moved as district attorney in Middle sex County in similar proceeding.
 Evidence was presented. against the district attroney, in only 21 of the charges. In 10 of those,. he was ac, cused of conspiracy to commit black mail.

Pelletier withdrew from the nlayoralty cam. paign before the election.
 Attorney General Allen alleged that Che acts of Pelletier as district attor ney since November 13, 1909. when he took office, down to the date of filing the charges. as unfolded by witnesses. proved that the accused prosecutor he'd conducted his office, in an 'un-

lawful and reprehensible manner, None of the charges as originally filed specified that Pelletier had received money in return for his alleged mis- conduct but evidence to this effect was presented in five cases. The at. torney general offered this evidence in connection with claim that Pelle- tier had participated in the profits of a partnership of crime"
 The action of assistants of Pelle- tier in disposing of cases brought to the attention of the district attorneys office was the basis of five of the charges. The state maintained that Pelletier should be removed because he had retained the assistants in of flee knowing their conduct to have been improper.
 Among the charges in support of which the state introduced testimony were some to the effect that Pelletier had conspired with Daniel H. Coak- ley, of Boston, lawyer and others to commit blackmail by threatening criminal prosecution. The bank rec ords of Coakley and Pelletier, offered by the state were excluded as whole but were admitted in four cases involv- ing alleged money transactions.
 No evidence was offered for the de- fense United States Senator James A.. Reed, of Missouri, chief counsel for Pelletier declared that the while pro- ceeding was based on a conspiracy against his client by political and personal enemies and also that the prosecution had fallen flat because the state had failed to connect the dis trict attorney with any wrong doing. Senator Reed said the defense elected to stand on the case as presented by the, state. arguing that there was noth- ing in it to which the district at' torney need make defense by testi- mony. The attorney general, in his closing argument urged Pelletiar's failure to take the stand as point against him.
 By cross examination of state wit nessess and in the arguments of his counsel. Pe,letier's defense was that he acted properly in handling all cases, t'.at many of those which he declined to press were efforts to use his office aB collection agency and that he never at any time, except in one case when no was paid legitimate fee as attorney in law firm, received any money return.
