Attorney Sweeney Declares
' He Will Have Nothing to

der of Mrs. Fat Maglll, and now being
brought back to Clinton by - BharU
'Campbell, w&i given two crushing
blow today, wben Attorney K. . 3.
Sweeney announced that he would have
nothing to do with It and a alxth letter
J written by Pet Maglll wae round.
J. Attorney Sweeney Is noted in central
; Illinois aa a proeecutor of bulldog pug
tnaclty and when State's Attorney Ar
thur Miller announced that Sweeney
had been ensaaed to assist the state
;ln the prosecution of Maglll and his
jjwlfe, people shook their heads and said:
ii tooas oaa lor r rea siagiu.

, i Today Attorney Sweeney notified. Mr.
z Miller that be could not assist him in
.', the prosecution of the Mag 111a Mr.
. .'Miller, while admitting that the refusal
of Mr. Sweeney to participate In the
.case was a hard blow to him, still main
tained that tne -Magllls would be held
'to the grand Jury and that indictments
, t would be returned against them in Oo-
tober. i , ,
Pet Maglll left a sixth letter. It was
discovered -today. Thle letter was ad-
dressed to her father. Alexander Oandy.
) and it is declared that in It she told her
aged parent that she . was about to de
' stray - herself , and bade him goodbye.
,i)lie also begged his forgiveness for the
7 step she was about to take. This letter,
lit is said, never reached her father, but
vu destroyed by relatives here. If
,-Uhis is true, it is another blow to the
state's 'case. The defense claims that
conclusive proof of this sixth letter
will be offered at the trial
To Xave jrigM Xtarlag.
Sheriff Campbell left San Diego late
'. this afternoon-with bis prisoners, and
'it trains run on schedule time be is
expected to arrive here Tuesday night.
There probably will be a night hearing.
' ' as the attorneys for the Magllls will
Insist upon an immediate hearing the
numnii u prisoners mn lurn irum
. ' the train at Clinton. There is Just one
--. possibility that the Magllls will not
i even be held to the grand Jury.
Judge Cochran of the ciroult court
will be In Clinton on Tuesday and Wed
. nesday and Attorney John Fuller, for
the defense, will exert all his energies
toward having Judge Cochran preside
at the preliminary hearing. Of course,
the state's attorney will order the Ma
' (''gills, arraigned before Justice of the
Peace Donohue, and then the legal bat-
tie will be on.
. !;... Depends Vpoa Judge.
Jf ' Judge Cochran, it is said, will ile-
tnand something more than circumstan-
' s tlal evidence before he will order the
1 Magllls held for the grand Jury, while
at the same time it Is generally be
lieved here that if Justice Donohue pre
sides he will bind them over on purely
circumstantial evidence, thereby shield
ing the state from disclosing their fiSl
, ;case against the pair.
A wild rumor spread over the town
this morning that the state's attorney
bad dropped the case and had tele
graphed Sheriff Campbell to release the
' Manilla He, however, made emphatlo
r denials of the rumor and stated with
much show of spirit that he had a good
.... vcaae against the Magllls and that it
. would be disclosed at the proper time.

'Englishmen don't want ti be shaved
by American barbers." declared my
oockney friend, in answer to my query
as to the cause of the downfall of the
American barber. "Besides, American
methods don't go here. Englishmen
want English barbers and English meth
ods snd English prices."..
"Whv. then, do you hang out a sign
advertising the only American barbers
in England'" 1 asked.
"Wants Their Koneyt
"Well." he replied, sfter puixllng a
few moments over the question. 'Tthe
Strand is. a great atreet for Americans,
and they like to patronize something
that they think comes from their side
of the water. And I." he added, with
a wink, "want some of their money."
Regarding the failure of the American
barber in London I am Inclined to think
that the real question hinges not so
much on English or American barbers
as It does on the question of English
methods and prices. The same class
shop that charges 15 cents for a shave
In the United States charaes but 1 anil
in many cases only 1 pence (4 cents)
here. But and It is a big but where
as, the original charge of 16 cents In
the United States includes a hair brush,
a face wash, a face lotion and various
other frills. In London these are all
extras and are charged as such. It Is
of these "extras" that the unsuspecting
American must beware.

course they don't mean so much to the

cases he knows how to avoM them, nut
for the uninitiated American they make
all te difference, and sometimes more,
between the excessive cost of living
In a city like New Tork and the so

regarded as significant of the Impres

The new witness in the case who
volunteered to rive valuable testimony

and it Is said that Hau confided freely

minutes, on each one of the first three instruments, until sold; on
Tuesday, weH do likewise on the next three, and on Wednesday
