MILLS, 336 Main Strest SIEMON EXONERATED OF MANSLAUGHTER Juége Booth Usable to Find Wanlon Negl gence Against Accused. - Bridgeport, July 28.—In a decision today given by Judge John Booth of New Haven, the magistrate who heard the case in the city court here re- cently, Carl F. Siemon is discharged on the complaint of manslaughter in wantonly and recklessly driving his automobile and causing the death of John DeMartino, in this city on Oc- tober 29, 1910. Attention had been directed to the case because of the time which elapsed between DeMartino’'s death and the presentation of Siemon at the bar to answet to the complaint. Both Judge Coughlin and Deputy Judge Wilder of the Bridgeport city court considered themselves to be dis- qualified to sit in the case and Judge Booth was called in. The hearing lasted several days. Facts of Case. . The facts, were: Siemon in his ma- ‘| ‘ehitne ‘was "driving through’ Feirfield Avenue on the date in question, when ‘he observed DeMartino standing on the curb. Upon ‘reaching’ a point opposite the man Siemon saw the latter stepjinto the street directly in the path of the automobile. He im- mediately turned the machine to the left to avoid a collision. the turning process DeMartino was killed. Judge Booth in his decigion ex- plained the law defining manslaugh- ter. He says the defendant, Siemon was charged with involuntary -man- slaughter by doing an unlawful act, to wit, wantonly and recklessly driv- ing the automobile into DeMartino. Then follows a review of the evi- dence and in summing up Judge Booth says that he is unable to find that prior to the time and subsequent to the collision the conduct of the accused amounted to wanton negli- gence. Involves Several Elements. “The crime, as charged,” says the court, “is composed of several ele- ments, the absence of any of which will defeat a successful prosecution. “Unlawful or negligent conduct are recessary elements,” neither of which is present in the case at bar. “These elements being lacking, the crime of involuntary manslaughter cannot be sustained and I, there- | fore, find that the evidence submit- ted does not show probable cuse to believe the accused guilty of the of- fense charged. “I accordingly, order his discharge.’” The ownership of the automobile which struck DeMartino was a mys- tery for a Jong time. On May 10 last Siemon himself reported the fact that he belleved his machine killed DeMartino. _ Clifford B. Wilson, now mayor, then coroner, made a finding WHEN AND HOW THE BODY POISONS ITSELF The underlying cause of much head- ache, Annicu{nlgy migraine, or sick head- ache, bilious attacks, vertigo, or dizziness, is intestinal auto-intoxication. This pro- cess, recognized only in recent years, is the absorption into the blood of poisons produced in the intestines from the resi- due of food. The two most prominent factors in causing this condition are constipation and excessive meat eating. It canthere- fore be largely avoided care in the | diet and the use of a laxative which will clear away the fermenting residue of food which is generating the poisons. Pinklets, the new laxative, are admir- ably suited to protect the body against the dangers of auto-intoxication for they gently assist nature and do not. gri: or purge.” Harsh purgatives leave the m in 8 worse condition than they | find it but Pinklets give just the stimula- tion to the organs of excretion that is needed uce natural action and if 1o p they are used regularly for a time they g VI?( 1y ¢ h correct constipation. - Your druggist sells Pinklets orthey will ? ¢ id, ipt of price, 25 B o e B Witims per bortle, Médicine Co., Schenéetady, N.

During1 that DeMartino had met death through the criminal negligence of some person to him unknown.- The night DeMartino was killed numerous machines were going through the city from New Haven where there had been a football game. It is un- derstood that a settlement of some kind had been made with Mrs. De- Martino. The secrecy of the whole matter was kept for more than three years. SUMMARY EXECUTIONS RESUMED BY CHINESE Yuan Shi Ka’s Goverament Again Becomes Severe. Pekin, July 28.—Yuan Shi-kai's government, lenient for a a while, has become so severe that the summary of execution of sentence, death or exile for political offenses are again numerous. It is no only those who violate the law but al so those who but passively support it and who will not work for reforms, on whom the hand .of the law is set. Yuan Shi-kai has found that dras- ti¢ regulations are necessary for im- proving the provincial tions” and purging the ‘country of rebels, who are still striving to turn the army against the president. A recent presidential mandate pre- scribes execution for officials who re- ceive bribes for preverting the law. Life imprisonment is prescribed for those who accept bribes for neglect- ing to put the law in force, It ap- pears from the mandate that ‘“pun- ishment ‘by death may take the form of shoot” instead of the old time de- capitation and “penal servitude may take the form of banishment to remote and. unhealthy provinces.” Persistent Gamblers Included. Besides rebels and corrupt offi- cials, persistent gamblers and secret service men of vicious practices are also to be put to death, if the presi- dential orders can be enforced. Such lists as the following are appearing daily, indicating those whose life may be the ‘forfeit of their crime. “Tong-chong, acting magistrate of Hsiao Kan Hsian, failed to perform his duty and practiced ‘squeezes,’ giving great trouble to the people. “Tu Chong Yu, acting magistrate of Ching Shan Hsian, allowed his relatives and servants to receive bribes and to frequent evil houses. “Tung Lai-yu, magistrate of Chia Yu Hsian, misappropriated govern- ment funds and has the habit of smoking ‘eplum and gambling. “Feng Jui-sung, active magistrate of Chung Yang Hsien, refused to hand over his office when instructed to attend the examination of mag- istrates.” One Regrettable Phase. One regrettable phase of the dras- tic program which the government has undertaken is the fact that many innocent persons have to go to the execution-grounds. It has long been the practice of trade rivals or any person who holds a grievance against another to bring the authorities down upon that person and perhaps bring about his execution. One of the most familiar methods has been for one to send through the mail let- ters which would seem to connect his business enemy with rebel oper- ations. The government authorities, carefully watching the mails, detect these letters and believing them gen- uine, run down ‘the person to whom they are addressed, and take sum- mary action. Perhaps hundreds of guiltless persons have already been executed as a result of such fraud. It would seem that the administra- tion could easily defeat such fraudu- lent letters, but the Chinese author- ities are still naive and life is held very cheap because it ‘is so wretched and miserable. Serious Evil Continucs. A serious evil continues to exist in the secret service branch of the gov- ernment. The detectives have long made it @a practice to extort “squeezes” by threats of denuncta- tion and to obtain rewards by accus- ing innocent men of complicity with Sun Yat-Sen and his party.
