THE LIQUOR CASE ,
It Will Probably End in a Verdict -
dict of auilty ,
All the testimony had been given
yesterday in the case of Andrew
Pluolor . , who is being tried before
Judge Savatjo for infringement of the
liquor law. After all.tha evidence was
in Gon. ' | Cowin asked that the court
instruct the jury to acquit upon the
evidence adduced. Judge Savage gave
carefully worded ruling in answer , in
which ho took the ground that
while some of the provisions of the
law might bo deemed unconstitutional
would have no effect upon the case
under consideration , and cited several
provisions m point. The main ques
tion raised , the court said , waa whether
the tax i was uniform in its character.
Judge Savage appeared to rcpard it a
rather as a license than a tax. Ho
said ho had been guided in his i iows
a great extent by the fact that
the constitutionality < of the law had
boon thoroughly discussed in the leg
islature which nevertheless passed it.
Unless its. unconstitutionally was al
most solf-ovidont Judge Savage said
hod not think it becoming for a
nisi prius judge to render a decision
such an important matter before
supreme i court had spoken.

Tlio next move by the defense was
