IN THE DISTRICT COURT.
Case Aghiust James Hill Given to the
Jury
The cisp ncalnst James Hill, of
WllUs-JJane, churgod with fraudulent
use ot the malls, went to the juiy In
United States court Just befoie ad
journment yesteiday afternoon.
Abraham Deales, of Cleat-Held county,
wan called by the piosecution ut the
opening of couit and gave testimony
similar to that given by the othets who
were duped by Hill. ISvidenco xa
also brought lot ward to show that the
puces quoted by Hill In his cliculais
were higher than the cuiient pilces In
thq dltiltts In which he caused the
clictilars to be dlbti United.
Postmaster V. M. Vandltng was call
ed by the government to testify that
Hill & Connell, "shlppeis to Wilkes-
liane and Scranton" were not known
hue and that the real Hill & Connell
of Scianton, Is a firm with wide busi
ness leputatlon and unimpeachable
ci edit. After a period of lively spar
ling between counsel Judge Hulllngton
declared the tettlmony li relevant.
Attorney John Shea made the open
ing for the. defense. In eloquent and
forcible language he claimed Hill's of
fenso wub nothing more- or less than
that of beltifi unfortunate in business.
He stated that Hill had been tu busi
ness In Luzerne and Lackawanna coun
ties for thirty yenr.s and had always
borne a good reputation. A year or so
ago lie wnt Into partnership with T.
U. Connell, of Duryea, who afterwauls
lift the Htm. Then Hill began to ex
'peilenca reverses. His boy was
ill owned In the Susquehanna liver nnd
ho spent $'irQ searching for the body.
He lan for office shortly afterwards In
Luzerne county and this cost him a
laige sum.
HIS LKTTHnS WITHHELD,
lie was rallying from his tioubles and
was making a strenuous erfoit to
stialghten out his dKllcultles when Post
Otllce Inspector Gorman came down
upon htm und tied up his mall In tho
postofllco, making It Impossible for him
to lecelve the collections he was tivlnj?
to make. The fact that the govern
ment had found only S9M worth ot bills
outstanding against a man who ban
been In business thlity years was In
Itself, Mr. Shea contended, evidence
highly favorable to Hill.
The defendant went on tho stand
and went over the history of his busi
ness career and recent troubles. In
Apill, lbS2, he and Thomas F. Connell,
of Plttston, went Into the produce busi
ness, but in June, 1890, Connell left the
film. Then he commenced to expeil
ence reverses and found himself Insol
vent. It was his Intention to pay for
the goods he ordered and was making
arrangements to do bo as far as he
was able when his nirest occurred. On
ci oss examination he admitted that at
various times he had had money sulll
clent to pay pome of the bills but did
not pay any of them.
Aldeiman Morrlsey and Valentine
Wick corroborated Hill's testimony
that he made effoits to secure loans
fiom them. Station Agents McDeivele,
of thf Lehlnh Valley; Strauss, of the
Pennsylvania, and Masters, of tho Jer
'spy Central, testified that Hill had le
celved many consignments during the
hist seven or eight year and to all ap
psarntieen was doing a large business.
Louis Tlsch, an Influential merchant;
Hauy Lleni, hotel proprietor; Kill
tor Dlppre, ot thf Luzerne Coun-
ly Kvpress; Deputy Hheilff Hohert
Wllllums, Commissioners Cleik Thos.
It. l'eters, Kied Thome, 12." Stiop, Hr-ni-nt
Williams, George St. John, Albeit
Smith iind .1.' L. Wngncr, prominent
Lu7Pine county ilien, gnve character
testimony for the defendultt.
Hill was called to the ntand a sec
ond time and made the statement that
l'ostolllce Inspector Gorman had come
to him with a big budget of letters
which ho had collected fiom the alleged
dupes and offered to drop the ptoceed
Ings und turn over the letters It he
would pay the fees.
Mr. Gorman In rebuttul denied this
and was about to go Into nn explana
tion of what he did propose when Judge
HulIliiBton with some show of Impa
tience ruled the evidence out on the
grounds of lrrelevcncy.
The closing address for the defense
was made by Mr. Colboin. He ciinr
actetlzed the whole proceeding ns a
persecution by spiteful ci editors. The
government, he said, through l'ost
olllce Inspector Gorman had tiatis
formed Itself Into a collection buieau.
It had spent a jear und ft half going
thiough New Yolk and Pennsylvania
with a diag net und had gatheied up
foity bills that Hill owes and which
thiough misfortune and bad luck he
Is unable to pay.
t'HAiicii: or Tim judgi:.
Mr. Gillllths closed for the govern
ment with a caieful leview of the evi
dent e. pointing out and einphasUlug
the Indications of frulid and lashing
Hill and his methods with tin unspar
ing tongue. Judge Hulllngton In his
charge dwelt paitlculuily on the Im
pel tnuce of the case to the people of
the United States and uiged the Juiy
men to give It the most caieful atten
tion. The grand Jury this mottling re
turned tiue bills of the I'nlted Slates
vs, Pasquale Cemceiallo for stealing a
letter; United Stules vs. James Mee
han, depositing obscene letteis and
causing obscene letteis to be depos
ited In the malls; United States vs. II.
T McKay, fiaudulent use of the malls;
United States vs Elian Shoit, having
counteifelt money In his poesslun,
pusslng counteifelt money and at
tempting to pass counteifelt money.
The grand Juiy was then disc lunged.
It Is likely that court will be kept In
session for nearly two weeks as a tiue
bill was letuined In eveiy case sent to
the grand jury.
Before adjourning, a Jury was diawn
In the case of Geoige Mohle, of
Wllkes-Ilarre, who Is accused of wotk
Ing the bume kind of a game as Hill.

1 thoroughly agiee with vou as to the
piluciple which )ou would establish, but
jou were vetj unfoitunate In join selet -Hon
of an example to lllustnttu the prin
ciple. Mr. Kockafdler has never even ap
peared to bemoan the fact that ho Is Im
mensely rich; he rather Is grateful for
the great prosperity which God has giv
en him, though he wus fully us happy In
the dajs of his eatly sttuggles for a
foothold In life as he Is In this daj of
affluent e. And tho secret Is an open cue
Mr. ltockafeller-has alwajs been a
"t heel fill glvei," his gilts in foimer
j ears, propoitionately to his Income, be
ing fully as large us his munltlcent gifts
of recent yeais. In the very addiess
which so disgusted jou, delivered before
a j-oung men's lilble class Mr. Itocku
ftillci, holding up a little book marked
"Ledger A," In which were kept the it"
celpts anil expenditures of the euily peiiod
of his wonderful business career, said:
"Those contilbutlons, small as they were,
hiought me Into dhert contact with
philanthropic woik, and with the bene
llii il woik and alms of religious Institu
tions, and I have been helped then by
gi eatly all my life It Is a mistake for
a man who wishes for happiness ami to
help others to think that he will wait
until he has mado a foi tune befoie giv
ing away money to deserving objects"
These sentences contain no suggestion of
miserable whining on the one hand, nor
of ostentation on the other. Ills words
and deeds Hatty contradict jour Insinua
tions as to his making "a show ot
wealth," "the twaddle of mpn of the
HotUafeller stamo," and the odious "ex
ample of many men of mcanr ' Person
ally he Is verj dlllldent and retiring, not
showy; he Is not loquacious, as "twaddle"
would have us think, and torn pa red with
most "men of means," his dimities are
ptincely. Ho has magnlllientlj endowed
one of the lluest educational Institutions
under the bioad expanse of the heavens;
he Is constantly giving to chinches, to
worthy Individuals und organizations;
and even now lie makes It possible to
liquidate the enormous debt of the two
great Huptlst Misslonaij sot letles, which

he will pay the balance of J.'.O.OOO If
there Is any truth In his remaik, us well

on earth, for on this planet he bus few

ubout ICO miles nearer home thun Netv
Yoik citj", and within tho past few
mouths or weeks, jou will find more Ill
ting examples for the enforcement of
jour remarks thun In the case of Mi
Itockafeller, who while living, enjojs both
his wealth and its wise distribution. In
tho wouls of another Chilstlau gentle

Don't let that cough hang
on any longer; it may make
you serious trouble and be
come constitutional, and pos
sibly lead to pneumonia. You
will find that ordinary cough
specifics will not reach the
scat of trouble; you must
take something to build up
and reinforce the body.
Scott's Emulsion of Cod-liver
Oil will usually do that when
every other thing fails, at
least that is the verdict of the
