Argument Partly Heard Be- fore Superior Judge Lawlor. S A, | Counsel for Herman and Jacob Ep- ! pinger of the bankrupt firm of Ep- pinger & Co., charged with obtaining money by false pretenses, are determ- | Ined that the case shall not go to trial | without a struggle. Judge Lawlor's | time was occupied all yesterday after- { | noon in listening to the arguments of | | counsel on a point as to the defend- | ants’ right to inquire as to what took | | place before the Grand Jury prior to! | the finding of the indictments agalnst | | the defendants. The Judge wanted that | point decided before hearing the argu- | ments on the motion on behalf of Her- | man Eppinger to quash the indictment. The arguments were not goncluded when court adjourned. Both defend- ants were in court, but sat far apart. RENEWS OBJECTION. ‘When the case of Herman Eppinger | was called Attorney J. C. Campbell, | counsel for the people, renewed his ob- | Jection to the affidavits filed in support | of the motion to quash the indictment. He desired to submit authorities on the question and said. if his cbjection was well taken it, would obviate the necessity of going into the merits of | the motion. His objection was that the | affidavits were irrevelant, immaterial and did not tend to support the motion. | Attorney Henry Ach objected strong- |1y for the defendant to any argument | being made on the obfection, made by | Campbell, as he contended it would be placing the defendant in a false ‘posi- | tion. He wanted the argument on the | motion to be proceeded with. He gpoke | in a sarcastic vein. | CAMPBELL GIVES WARNING. | Attorney Campbell retorted that he did not want to talk just to hear him- self talk and hoped counsel would re- frain from indulging because he would give him notice that he was better than a raw band him- self at that sort of thing and would give counsel all that he waunted. He | contended there was only one propo- s, sition and that wi could they con- sider these affidavits under the motion | to set aside the indictment? - Did they in any way support the motion? He | disclaimed any intention of sidetrack- ing the defendant. The Judge sald he wanted to be ad- | | vised as to how far they could inquire | as to what actually took place before the Grand Jury. Was not that es- sentially a question of law? If the pro- ceedings before the Grand Jury were sacred it was the province of the court to safeguard Its interests. { WANTS POINT ARGUED. | The Judge said he desired to hear argument In the preliminary matter | as to the right of the defendant to in- quire as to what took place before the Grand Jury and the attorneys could go { into the issue of the motion afterward. The point was of the gravest import- ance and he wanted it fully argued. Campbell agreed to allow Ach to | make the opening argument and Ach's | associate, Peter F. Dunne, to close. Ach spoke for two hours and a half | till his voice failed him. He quoted | numerous authorities and decisions in | support of his contention that the do- | ings of the Grand Jury were subject to | | review. The argument will be resumed | this morning at 9:30 o'clock. [ S | MILWAUKEE. Nov.

Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets can hard- 1y be called a patent medicine, as they do not act on the bowels nor any par- ticular organ, but only on the food eaten. They supply what weak stom- achs lack, pepsin diastase, and by stimulating the gastric glands in- crease the natural secretion of hydro- chloric acid.

The defendant held that more than four years had elapeed after the issuance of the promissory note in dispute and that action was barred by the statute of limitations. Soule was going through insolvency proceedings between the time he incurred the debt and the time suit was commenced against him, but he never secured an order of court discharging his debts. The Supreme Court declares that the time consumed during the insolvency proceedings does not count. There is nq danger of forming an in- jurious habit, as the tablets contain absolutely nothing but natural diges- tives; cocaine, morphine and similar drugs have no place in a stomach med- icine, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are certainly the best known and most popular of all stomach remedies. .

SALINAS, Nov. 24—"Alex Cartier was murdered with some heavy instru- ment, such as an iron bar or ax.” This was the verdict of the physi- cians here who had been requested by Sheriff Nesbitt to examine the frag- ments of skull found on the San Juan hills. The fracture, they declared, showed conclusively that death was due to violence. The physiclans also declare that it would be an impossibil- ity for the bones composing the skull to be crushed as those exhibited were by a fall of twenty feet. Further developments to-day showed that Cartier had when he disappeared $250 in gold and silver in a buckskin pouch, a heavy gold watch and chain, a double-barreled shotgun and several small trinkets. These cannot be found. He suffered from muscular rheumatism and was unable to walk even a short distance unless aided. It would have been impossible for him to have gone to the spot where the body was found. The officers are now working on the theory that he was murdered with an ax near his home and that the body was carried to the cliff and placed there, ———— Incompatibility of temper, causing di- vorce and domestic tmublul. may be avoided by using gas for fuel.

NEW YORK, Nov. 24—The ‘“open- alr” treatment for tuberculosis started by the health department on North Brother Island has proved a success, say the physicians who have watched the experiments. A hospital for the treatment of the disease was estab- lished on the island, and out of 127 pa- tients who entered the institution six months ago eighty-four have been dis- charged as cured and only eleven are under treatment now. Eleven have died. The mortality is placed at 25 per cent, which is a low average when it is considered only the worst cases have come to the island.

Their speeches occupied the en- tire day. Judge Mahon began his charge to the Jjury after 5 o'clock this evening. He instructed the jury that it was not necessary for the defendant to account for every minute of his time in estab- lishing an alibl and that it ie a prin- ciple of the law that “it is better for ninety-nine guilty men to escape than for one innocent man to suffer.” At 10:30 o’clock there were no signs a verdict being rendered and Judge Mahon retired, announcing that he would receive a verdict in the morning.
