Davis, of the supreme court of the state of New York, who was the guest of honor, gave his opinion as to the guilt of Nan Patterson, while making an argument in defense of Assistant District Attorney Rand, who had prosecuted the young woman at her three trials for the murder of Caesar Y'oung. Justice Davis, who presided at the first two trials, said that she had lied from be ginning to end, and it was his opin ion that the majority of the commun ity now believed that Miss Patterson held the pistol by which Young was shot; that J. Morgan Smith bought the weapon, and gave It to her. charging her at the same time with the duty of "scaring" Y'oung. "But today, in the light of the last disagreement, I feel sure that most people are convinced that a major ity of the people believe that the pistol that killed Young was held by Nan Patterson, was discharged by her, was bought by' J. Morgan Smith in an attempt to get money from Caesar Young for the support of the combined family. During his remarks, Justice Davis said: "I don't mean to say that she too a the pistol from the reticule and shot him in the side, but I do believe that she had the pistol and showed it to Caesar Y'oung. An argument fol lowed, and he took hold of the weap on. In the consequent struggle the pistol went off and the man was killed. "I believe, moreover, that, had she told the story on the witness stand as it really happened, In other word, had she told the truth, that the sec ond jury would have acquitted her." Judge Dunne, the newly elected mayor of Chicago, speaking In New York on Municipal Ownership, said: Chicago has succeeded in the opera tion of her waterworks system, In paying some t3S,(K0,(HK) for the equipment of that plaut has loaned 15,000,000 from that department to the sewer system, is today giviitr the cheapest wal- r of perhaps any city in America, and has a cash sur plus of nearly 91,000,000.
