SAID THE TRIAL
WOULD BE A FARCE
Attorney Lord Makes Very Se
rious Allegation Against
Police Judge Hogue.
DECLARES HE 8TATED
UNTRIED MAN WA8 GUILTY
Court Indignantly Denies Charge
and Lawyer Leaves His Client
Without Counsel.
Declaring that Police Judge Hogue
had given evidence of prejudice prevl
ous to trial, and that to appear In be
half of a prisoner as counsel would be
a "farce," Attorney Charles F. Lord
walked out of the courtroom this morn
lng and left his client undefended.
The casa of Ruth Delano, aged 10
years, arrested In a Chlnass opium dsn
on Pin street with Yo Hong early Bun
day morning by Sergeant Hogeboom
and Patrolman Endlcott, was called.
Attorney Lord appeared for the Chinese.
"Tour honor," stated the lawyer, "I
have the statements of several mem
bers of the bar and others that you have
conversed relative to this cas with po
lice officers and others, and have x
pressed the opinion that this Chinaman
Is guilty. That seems to be a regular
practice of this court. There Is no use
in proceeding with a trial In which th
court has already mad up Its mind.
"You are in error." warmly responded
Judge Hogue. "It la true I have talked
with the offlcera and others about th
case and that they may have expressed
an opinion' that the Chinaman is guilty,
but I have aever done so. There la noth
ing, in my mind, which will prevent me
from giving the man a fair trial."
"I have plenty of witnesses to your
expression of opinion." reiterated Attor
ney Lord. "I believe the court preju
diced. Under the circumstance I think
that any proceedings which might fol
low would be a farce, and yet I -do not
believe the matter can be heard by any
other court."
Judgs Hogue admitted that no other
court could hear the charge. He said
he was not prejudiced, but would be
perfectly willing for another Judge to
it In the case, were it possible.
"It would be a farce for you to sit,"
declared Attorney Lord. '
'Do not repeat that language," angrily
retorted the court
"Very weM; a repetition is unneces
sary," said the Irate - lawyer, as he
turned on his heel and walked out of
the court.
To Hong did not appear and his ball
of $20 was declared forfeited. During
the healing it developed that the girl,
whose true name was withheld, recently
arrived in the city and was Induced to
go to the opium den by a male acquaint
ance. While he and the proprietor of
the house went out for opium she was
locked in a room with the Chinese who
was arrested with her.
Learning this. Judge Hogue had the
girl held as a witness and Issued a
warrant for this man.

HERE ON XMAS TIME AS ALWAYS
AN ERA OP QUALITY Each year the demand for better
grades in all lines of merchandise manifests itself. More
and more do the people expect and require articles of gen
uine merit. In no line is this tendency so marked as in
ladies' ready-to-wear garments asd dress goods. That in a
measure accounts for the phenomenal success of the Mc Allen
& McDonnell stores. People understand and appreciate the
tact that Quality Counts. "The something for nothing" fellow
has been relegated to the rear. Nowadays the average cus
tomer is able to and does separate the chaff from the gram.
Our business is founded on quality. This method has stood
the test for many years.
