Mahoney, of No. 1231 7th street, by rldlng a horse over her on the 12th of April last and breaking her leg 17 four places. “Miss Mahoney stated that about 73s (clock on the evening th question she was crossing E street. at the intersection of 7th street, when she Was knocked down and run over by a horse ridden by the deiendant, and rendered tnsensible and Injured, a3 above ‘stated. Atter the assault the defendant stated that he thought she was one of those women who dely amantorun overthem. She stated that her leg had been broken in four piaces. Several witnesses testified to seeing the occur- rence, and some of them said the prisoner was only driving at a moderate galt. A witness stated that he semed to be leaning over to get hold of one of his reins at the time he struck the lady. Sergeant of Police Boyle stated that the defend— ant was driving too fast to cross 7th street at any time, much less so when the lamps were lighted in the evening. ‘The officer also stated that he did not appear to make any effort to stop his horse until after he struck the lady. Barber stated that It_was purely an accident, and he made every effort to avert it. He also dented that he told her that he thought she was one of those women who defy a man to run over them. Prosecuting Attor- ney Moore sald he thought this was @ case In Which a severe punishment should be im Mr. LG. Hine appeared for the defendant, and Stated that there was no evidence to show that the assault was intentional or that there was any criminal negligence. ‘The court sald: “The testimony in this case showed that the defendant was coming actoss 7th street at a faster rate than he should.” The road- Ways aro made for the public accommodation, whether pedestrians,equestrians or Dicyclists,and each of the parties Gwe the duty to the other to use caution at the street crossings. The strect crossings are made for foot passengers, who have absolute right of;way, and when equestrians draw near these croastngs they have to ‘use more than ordinary caution. I do not think that the de- fendant Intended to run ‘down the lady, but he was riding in a lope at that hour when there are a great many persons passing. He showed an utter disregard for the rights of, pedestrians, and he I guilty of assault. Now, this case 1s not brought to measure the extent'ot the complatnant’s in- juries, | The court could impose a flne of $1,000, ut this ts not the object of the law.

Adlspatch from Chicago to: the Philadelpusa Evening Bulletin gays: President Arthur, who de- parted at noon for the west, was surrounded all the forenoon at his rooms in the Grand Pacific Hotel by his friends and acquaintances and kept up arunning conversation with al! the gentlemen present. The President's attention was called to the platform adopted at the Pennsylvania demo- cratic state convention last Weanes@ay. He was asked what he thought of that portion of it ad- verting to the internal revenue system of the gov- ernment. “It 1g not surprising,” replied the President, “that Pennsylvania should favor such a ste} There is no doubt that Congressman William D. Kelley has done a great deal to secure the adop- tion of such a plank in the platform, and the in- fluence of Samucl J. Randall in favor of it doubt. less has great weight. Pennsylvania belleves that the wiptng out of the internal revenue system. would mean the continuance of high protective } tariff, so that the action of the convention on Wednesday with reference to this subject 1s only what we have been led to expect from intercourse with Mr. Kelley and others.” THE SURPLUS REVENUE “You do not expect conventions in other states or either of the national conventions to adopt a similar plank in their platforms?” was asked. “No,” the President replied; “Ido not think such a principle will prevail generally, for some time to come at least. A great many people in this country are opposed to taking the tax off whisky and tobacco, believing that they ure articles which are not necessary for the people tohave and which they could well get along without The same platform siso deciares against what ts alleged to ea republican measure—namely, dividing the surplus revenue among the several states. That is project that has been broached. How much weight it has Tam unable to say. Ido not think It can be called a distinctive republican measure.
