True Story of the Pittsburg: ponemcnt. Case Post- THE PROSECUTION NURSED DELAY. Tlio Superintendent and His Lawyers Per sistently Urged the Case on and at the Eleventh Hour the Prosecution's Private Counsel Pleaaed Illness. The representative of tlio Hkium. ac- companleil by President Price, of tlio School Hoard, arrived liomo from Pittsburg this morning at 0:14. Tho other members of their party will arrive hero this evening, probably at SI o'clock, having stopped over at Hmdford and Johnstown on their way home. Messrs. Toolo, Ilannn, Hcllly, Higglns and Smith will probably reach home to-inorrow. They left Pittsburg last night for Philadelphia and will witness the foot ball game there to morrow between the Pennsylvania and Harford teams. Tho friends of Prof, llogart, aftcrpcrsistent efforts to bring tho case to trial, were greatly disappointed yesterday morning when tlio announcement was made in open court at Pittsburg that tho caso would bo carried over until tho next term of court, which convenes next mouth and remains in session probably until February. Thero has been no definite' time fixed, but tho District Attorney will probably set a day when the caso is to bo railed after consultation with the counsel on both sides. It is not likely to be called, how-1 ovor, before tho flrst or second week in January. It might bo well to make a correction hero j that appoarcd in tho dispatch received by tho Hkuai.I) yesterday, whorein it was stated that tho case was postponed because of tho illness of the Judge Tlio error was made In transmission in tlio telegraph olllco at Pittsburg, mid instead of the Judge being sick, it was tho attorney for tho prose cution, and for that reason, and that alone, was tho caso postponed, all reports to tho contrary notwithstanding. Every statement made in reference to the trial can he fully substaut'atcd. It was not found necessary to pervert tho facts, and no attempt was mado tf do so. Tho reasons for tho postponement of tho trial wore truthfully stated in tho dispatch published last night, with tho correction above noted. Tho "doctored" dispatch pub lished in the Coal street sheet is only in line with tho course pursued by the enemies of Prof, llogart through all tho stagos of this unfortunate and totally uncalled for persecu tion. The truth has been perverted to gain tho desired end, hut up to the preseuttimo un successfully so. Tho publication of the dispatch in ((uestiou is only additional ovidence of the kind of warfaro that has been mado against the Superintendent. The, true facts of tho postponement can ho briefly stated as follows : Tho caso was set for Tuesday morning, at which time tho Dis trict Attorney assured tho counsel fur tho de'enso that it would be tho ilrst called that morning. Iustead, however, it was carried over until Wednesday afternoon without any definite time for tho trial' being given, not withstanding tho persistent efforts of tho counsol for Prof. ISogart in urging the com monwealth to bring tho caso to trial. Wednesday afternoon District Attorney Haymaker informed tho counsel on both sides that the caso would positively be called Thursday morning, and tliat a full panel would be given from which to select tho jury. This announcement was received with much satisfaction by Prof, llogart and his friends, and they appeared at court next morning promptly on time ready and anxious for trial. This statement is mado in con tradiction to the "doctored" dispatch pub lished to tho effect that llogart resorted to technicalities and did not want the trial to proceed. The dispatch in question contains not one truthful statement, outside of tho slnglo announcement that tho ease was post poned. Tho Coal street sheet, as is customary, has clearly deceived its readers. On Tuesday Lawyer Hunter, in behalf of tho defense, mado u demand for a full panel, for reasons no doubt well known to tlio other side. Wednesday afternoon tho District Attorney mado tho announcement that tho case would bo called Thursday morning, and a full panel would bo ready. This was satis factory to the defense, but subsequent events showed it was not agreeable to the other side, j who clearly showed tho white feather on i Thursday morning, when their lawyer, John JIarrou, Csq., stated iu open court that he was sick and could not goon with tho case at that time and did not know when ho would bo ablo to proceed. Ho also stated that if the court insisted upon tho trial proceeding he would endeavor to procure another attorney I to take his place. Those familiar with legal practice, know well what that means, ami the District Attorney, in view of the statement of tho private counsel for the prosecution, an nounced that the ease would go over until the next term of court. To further refute tho statements of the Coal street sheet that the delay was occa sioned by tho friends of Prof, llogart, it might bo stated that counsel for tho latter in-, formed tho District Attorney on Wednesday afternoon that his client would wave ull j rights ns to full panel and would ho willing ' to go to trial at onco, with or without a full 1 panel. This was douo In order to occasion no further delay, A. W. Schalok, Uso,., counsel for tho defenso, will substantiate tho state ments herein made. It is plain to be seen that the parties hav ing direct charge of the prosecution are de ceiving their friends as to tho status of tho caso. This is mado plain by the dispatches tent hore, which could not possibly havo been done for any other motive. These who have accepted tho statements of "Me Ton" Smith will realito this when tho case comes to trial, if thoy over allow It to reach that stage. However, tlio goose that laid the golden egg may bo killed before many days pass by. Prof. llgart will prolstbly 1 home to morrow or tho following day. He and his wife wore persuaded by their friends at Knoxvillo to remain over. TJiey both met with a hearty reception at tho hands of the pcoploof Knoxvllle, who (Irmly believe him Innocent of the charges. Ho will "como lack to Shenandoah" without any ifs or huts.
