 Lost.

Boston. Feb. 22.-Joseph c.

 Peletier characterized the language of the decision as vituperative; said that crooks and lihertines were quoted and believed, and that in the Emer- son Motors phase of the charges against him, the court found him guilty on the same testimony which Justice Golf of New York held to have exonerated him. He presented no evidence in defense, Pelletier ex- pained, feeling that no court could possibly give credence to the palpable worthlessncss of the testimony"
