Mrs. Rhodes Freed
Of Arson Charge
Former Charleston (W. Va) Woman
Is Acquitted In Richmond Court
Witness Describes Fire.

Richmond, Va, Dec. ~ Mrs. N.
L. Rhodes, 4S, formerly of Charleson,
w. Va, under indictment for arson,
was acquitted last night in Hastings
Court
The principal witness for the Com
monwealth proved to be Ernest F.
Fisher, photographer, so years old,
formerly of Hampton, Va, and Hin
ton, w. Va, and originally from Staun-
ton, Mr.. Fisher testified that Mrs.
Rhodes urged him to burn a residence
at 2103 Grove avenue, occupied by her
so that she might collect $4,000 insur-
ance which she carried on her house.
hold effects, but he denied that he
agreed to do so.
He said she made the proposal to
him last spring when she went to
Hampton to see him. AT that time ne
was employed in the studio of pho
tographer in that city. He came to
Richmond the evening of May 8 last
and went to her home to spend the
night.
He took room on the second floor
while she went away to party in
Henrico county. Soon after midnight
he struck a match to light cigarette
and there followed an explosion of
gasoline which apparently had been
poured literally about the interior of
the house. With his clothes aflame ne
escaped from a second-story window,
but not before he had been burned
severely about the hands, arms and
face.
Correspondence which passed be-
tween Mr.. Fisher and Mrs. Rhodes
prior to the fire was produced in evil
dence. This contained no reference
to the alleged arson pact, but tended tc
show that Mrs. Rhodes went to Hamp-
ton to confer with Mr.. Fisher.
The Commonwealth also endeaYorec
to establish that Mrs. Rhodes planned
the party the night of the fire to es
tablish an abb, evidence being intro
duced to that effect that she arranged
for the party at the home Of frient
several days previously.
1t was brought out that Mrs. Rhodes
the morning after the fire, called OF

On The Demoralizing Effects
of Commercial Restrictions.
Much has been said, and very
justly, of the deplorable effects of
our anti-commercial laws with re-
spect to pecuniary interests; but
their i'll effects on morals have been
passed over unnoticed, or but slight
ly mentioned; yet the evils of the
latter are unspeakably more dread
full than those of the former. A
virtuous nation, though poor, may
continue for a long time free and
happy as in the instance Of the
s. cantons; but a free nation
that becomes deeply corrupted, and
SO continues, will inevitably lose its
liberties. Hence the notorious
Machi"vel ,remar iled, "He who
woulo . r free government, and
set himself up, must attend till time
hath corrupted the mass, and by de-
grees brought all into disorder"
The readiest way if not the only
way to enslave free people Is to
fit them for slavery by corruptlng
their morals,
