Erwin made the closing argument foi

■aid. In part: V
‘‘On account of the feeling in this case,
I reel culled upon to say eoroethlng i nu-
auoi and not ordinarily permitted by
Judges. I want to »ay in plain wonls be
fore a plain people that whatever the out
come of the case, you have been fair.
"I say there was no redress from the
Pullman horror. What could they do*
Declare war? No. Break the public
peace? No. Then what may they do?
Anything that the God-given conscience
prompts them. That is the liberty of this
s«V.
■•'Isn't It a deplorable state of affairs
that while the press rang out. while the
pulpits roared against th© Iniquities at
Pullman, no power In the law of this
country stepped forward to stop them*
These people were starving, ye* not a flag
was raised, not a drum beat, uot an of
ficer of this government stepped forward
to raise his hand In behalf of them.
‘This case Is the beginning of suits, our
friends on the other side tell uh. To us
It is the end of defensive suita We ear
on our defense for the last time, onior-
row wo shallbe gin on them. The con
science of this nation will demand that a
special counsel be appointed to prosecute
the general managers.
“Thc-ie clients are charged with setting
fire to cars. We shall find out tomorrow
who set these fires—these cheap flre:» to
ttIVn the temper of the public. Thla fair
city will never pay $&UOU,00 to the rail

fires. I hope the nation win give tne
general managers «n opportunity to de
fend themselves.
"PaJmaa Is, tf not In l«-w. in equity, th*

so the strike came. If members of the

MUCH WHISKY WITHDRAWN.
They Are Brave iMen. But Have No Pa

London, Sept. 28.—Capt Lang, a for
mer director in. the Chine** navy and
supervisor of the erectfen of many Chi
ne** forts, said tn an interview today
tn rexard to the Chinese reverses: "The
Inherent conservatism and apathy con
cerning everything outside of China and
the want of esprit d* corps have had
their natural rivulta. Au a ma’ter of
fact, the Chinese never expected to
have a fight, and their supreme con
tempt of Japan Is a predominant trait
with them. ThefY seamen are as brave
as could be wished, but they have not
the slightest patriotism.
“Their officers ore regard lore nr al
most everything but personal advan
tage ttr-.J have always wanted to evade
drill amt remain ashore. They have
bated European* and are insufferably
obaUnaje. There are exceptions, how
ever. as In the case of Admiral Ting,
who is conspicuously a brave and capa
ble officer, whose Uud could be safely
followed anywhere.
•1 cannot understand the alleged su
periority of the Japanese quick-firing

and 1 ant not disposed, tn tne iignt of

the blame. The only Europeans now
In service tn the Chinese licet are act

In conclusion he reaffirmed tits belief
that the Cblnese hail been the victors.
