He declar2d’ that it had been[ proved by the prosecution that Young never owned a revolver, and that even if he had one it would have been a physical impossibility for him to in- fiict upon himself such & wound as| caused his death. He called the atten- | tion of the jurors to the prepua.uon-! miade by Young for his Buropean trip, and told thém that alone proved be- yond question that the bookmaker had no intention of teking his life, The | * contention of the defefise that it was | Young who opposed breaking the rela- tibns between. him and Miss Patterson, he claimed, was proved untemable by | the evidence, which, he said, showed that Young.had kept away from her| during the whole month just preceding dis death.

AD" Friend of Banker Tells of|Southern Pacific Employes [RAINMEN HELD His Peculiar Methods of| Accused of Aiding Chinese Conducting His Milwaukeean Said to Have Believed Himself Greater Business Man Than He Was MILWAUKEE, Wis, May 2—A statement in regard to the cause of the downfall of Frank G. Bigelow, the de- faulting bank president, was made to- day by an intimate friend of the for- mer banker. In brief, Bigelow's friend attributes the disaster to the banker’s overconfidence in his own - busfness ability. Bigelow, his friend states, de- nies emphatically that he lost the money in wheat deals. Said the friend: If you were to ask him how the money wes t he would be unable to tell you. Hig rs are in & remarkable tangle. To my mind there is no reason to bellevi the defalcation dates back more than a few years. Looking at it from a purely business stand- point it is impossible to steal from a bank if the business of the bank is safeguarded. For’ instance, one company in St. Louis loaned Mr. Bigelow ),000. mora. to suppose that he meant to defraud the St. Louis institution. There was nothing about him to indicate that . He pald the interest regularly and as a matter of fact did not intend to be dishonest. Hs thought he wag & fmancier He kept mo books and for’ odds and:ends’ of all sorts he b his_ mind only as their depositorfes. I am sure I don’t know whether it indicates mental weakness on his part. I can but repeat he suppesed he was a greater business man than e was. Just when Mr. Bigelow bey to take the -am unable to bank's funds is a matter determine from anything he says. When an examination of the bank was made last Janu- ary nothing was disclosed. For all 1 know it did not begin until after that time. Thers was an absolute lack of system about ‘every- thing he did, so far as his own affairs were concerned. wOMAN DENIED DAMAGES FOR HUSBAND'S DEATH Court Exonerates Steamship Company, Holding That Man’s Negligence Caused Accident.

He beliecves that his efforts to produce 3 the best goods from the best materials will be re- warded by the public’s patronage. It is with this idea in view that the brewers of San Fran- cisco have planned to exploit the virtues of their beer in con- trast to the imported brands. Beer making is an industry which requires the united torces of Nature’s bounty and man’s skill. that there are places where good beer cannot be made; and it is for the same rcason that San Francisco’s facilitiecs for pro- ducing good beer are unsurpassed by any city in the world. In a scrics of articles to be published in the papers of this city, the San Francisco Brewers will ¢xplain why San Francisco has superior natural advantages for making good beer. They will tell how they have utilized every known method to rcap the full measure of Nature’s generosity. They will show that they have spared neither pains nor expensc In attaining and perpeiuating the extreme grade of purity and the high-standard of quality which has always char- ly, they will prove how well they It is for this recason | I i You may safely swear by this value, for it is a crack-a-jack knife.
