Peflcr' Dond Resolution Modlfletl The Sandry Civil Dill. ! WASHINGTON, April 4. The Senate save to-day to the sundry civil appropriation bill without completing it. The de- . tate was largely of a, formal character. 'Contrary to custom there will be a Saturday session of the Senate. The movement for international arbitration was referred, to la the prayer of Rev. Hugh Johnston at the opening of the session. "Let the 'armies be disbanded; let the world be at peace," he Invoked. Mr. Sherman sought to take up the bill proposing: a repeal of the law giving a rebate of tax on alcohol U3eJ In the arts, but met with strong opposition from Mr. Chandler and Mr. Piatt, so the measure went oyer. At 2 o'clock the bond resolution was laid before the Senate and Mr. Peffer, its author, proposed modifications to meet the 'criticisms in the recent speech of Mr. HilL As modified the resolution strikes out the direction . that the special committee of five Senators shall Inquire whether any officer of. the Kovernment made any contract or' agreement in connection with bond issues with the Intent to receive commlsBizn or perdonal reward, and also the proVision that not more than two of the Senators on the committee of inquiry shall be mtmtcrs of tho same political party. The resolution then went over by agreement. A Venezuelan debate came up when the item of t.'.e su.n.Iry civil bill was reached authorizing the Venezuelan commission to pay rtnt lor its quarters out of the $100.UX appropriated for Its expanses. Mr. (lornfan suggested that an explanation was in order. In great haste and In great emergency Congress had appropriated JIUO.OOO at the suggestion of the President for the purpose, as was. supposed, f preventing, a war. But now it appeared that the legislation was not effective in giving quarters for the Venezuelan commi33.on. Mr. Allison explained that the Controller cf the Treasury had ruled that the Venezuelan appropriation could not fce used for renting cuililr.gs within the District of Columbia, ilr. Allison added that the Controller was very rigid in his rulings, as was well known. Mr. Gorman expressed amazement at this condition of affairs. Amil great popular excitement and on the advice of the President, Congress hid made an appropriation for the Venezuelan commission. It was designed to settle a conflict between two of the greatest nations on earth. And yet here steps In a Controller of the Treasury and says this momentous commission is without power to pay its rent. Mr. Allison interrupted 10 say that the condition was really ridiculous, and yet it existed and had to be met. "There is a felinjr prevalent through the country." added Mr. Gorman, "that the emergency In this Venezuelan question is past, if inieed it ever existed. At all events it is gratifying to know that this grave question has dwindled down to a question of rent of quarters for the Venezuelan commission." Mr. Allen said it was singular that the Venezuelan commission had not taken quarters in th State Department instead of Tenting- .private quarters. Mr. Gorman insisted on having the Venezuelan item go over until he could communicate with the Treasury Department. The sectarian question came up In a new form when the items were reached approErlatin;? for tho Providence and Garfield 0!pltals at Washington and care of destitute invalids. Mr. Galllnger proposed an amendment requiring a contract to be made by Prov13ence Hospital. This brought forward Mr. Gorman in some general statements ozx the sectarian question. He said he confessed his amazement that the Congress of the United States or any party In control of Congress should be so far swept from the plain dictates of Justice as to raise the sectarian question against hospitals. If It was for political purposes, Mr. Gorman declared, it would react on its authors. Mr, Gorman moved to lay the amendment on the table, and the motion prevailed without dissent. Mr. Chandler endeavored to have restrictions placed on the expenditures of the Attorney-general in order to avoid deficiencies, and. failing this, remarked: "Then if we can't have the reform I hope we will have a new President of the United States who will give us new district attorneys and marshals to keep down the expenditures. An amendment was adopted appropriating $tf,0i) additional for the public building at Utile Itcck. Ark. Mr. Gorman withdrew opposition to the "Venezuelan Item and it wa3 adopted. An amendment by Mr. Paeon giving the Cotton States Exposition Company $13,000, tho balance of the former appropriation unexpended, was adopted. The bill then went over. The Joint resolution giving to Senators Mantl?, of Montana, and Clark, of Wyoming, the salary from March 4, lS9i, ineread of from the date of election was adopted. And then, at 5:10, the Senate adjourned until to-morrow. . DUG TO A 3! IS UNDERSTANDING. The Money-Hnll Flstht In the Naval Affairs Committee Room. WASHINGTON. April 24. Yesterday's combat between Representative Money, of .Mississippi, and Representative Hall, of Missouri, is conslderd practically a closed Incident about the House. Mr. Hall appeared in his seat as usual before the House met and then went to the room of the committee on naval affairs, where the encounter occurred. Mr. Money did not come to the House" until an hour after It met and was looking none the worse because of yesterday' affair. There was to have been a meeting of the naval committee, but a quorum of numbers did not attend. Among thr who gathered In the room while Mr. Hail was there no reference was made to the .Incident of yesterday. It Is thought probable by members that the friends of the two combatants will bring about an amicable understanding between them. The trouble aptarently had Its origin In a misunderstanding, and it is thought that explanations may be exchanged. Doth Mr. Money and ilr. Hall have expressed regret over the affair in their conversation. Mr. Money had planned to leave for Mississippi to-morrow. Precedents are not lacking on which the House might take action on yesterday's affair if there wa3 any desire to do so. but it is not likely official notice will be taken of It. Neither Mr. Money nor Mr. Hall cared to speak about the incident for publication. . Adjournment Talk. WASHINGTON, April 24. The fact that cuch unusual prozreus was made with the sundry civil appropriation bill In the Genate to-day and that the Democrats manifested no disposition to delay Its consideration has greatly encouraged the Republican Senators In the belief that an early adjournment is probable. It is understood that the Democratic leaders have practically agreed that ConKre&s shall cloe as soon as the appropriation bills can bs disposed of, and that . they Will make no Opposition to their consideration with as much dispatch as Is consistent with their ideas of the demands of the public business. They will expect, however. that opportunity shall b granted for consideration of one or two measures, and amonj other things will ask that a vote shall be taken upon the resolution to seat Mr. Dupont as a Senator from Delaware. The Democrat think that In case the vote Is taken on this proposition the resolution will be defeated. Carlisle Reply to Craves. WASHIXGTON, April 2L Secretary Carlisle has filed an affidavit In the District Supreme Court in answer to the mandamus suit brought by William Graves, cf New Ycrk, to compel the Secretary to award to blrn $4,500,000 of the recent issue of 4 per cent. bond.. The affidavit charges Graves with withholding from the court a full recital of the fact in the case, with making wrong impressions by false recitals and by garbling correspondence; denies the statement that Graves made a tender at the New York subtreasury on account of his allotment: also the averments that Graves was at ail times, after he was notified of his rllotnent cf bonds, ready, willing and able to ry for them according to the terms and renditions of his bid. end asserts as entrue tl jttitemeat that there are still la the

Menden hall, ex-superintendent of the coast and geodetic survey, was given a hearing by a subcommittee of the committee on finance to-day In advocacy of Senator Cannon's bill for the adoption of the metric system 'by

) this country. They based their advocacy of the change on th theory that tne system when once adopted, would be far more satisfactory than the present system and said the longer the change was postponed the more dilUcuIt It would be to make It. Senator Sherman, who Is chairman of the subcommittee, without expressing any opinion as to the merits of the bill, said it would probably be too late to give either measure consideration during the present session. General Xotea. WASHINGTON, April 24. Senator Warren, from the committee on claims, has reported the amendment to the sundry civil appropriation bill for the payment of the French spoliation claims, which have been allowed by the Court of Claims.

The suit is a sequel to the recent action brought against the 'defendant by Waring for the recovery of ten thousand shares of stock of the Standard Underground Cable Company, which came to a sudden termination on motion of the plaintiffs counsel for a discontinuance." The defense objected, but court ordered the suit discontinued on payment of costs by the plaintiff. Westlnghouse claims that the stock was given to him outright for his aid in putting the company on a good footing, and that it was worthless.

The Argentine Cabinet favors the suggested basis of the settlement of the frontier difficulty with Chile. The London Daily News asserts that It is almost certain that the cattle diseases bill looking to the restriction of the importation of Canadian cattle will be abandoned by the government. The London Times says that It 4s credibly Informed that the North German Lloyd Steamship Company is asking for tenders for the building of five steamers of 5,000 tons each for the Brazil trade.

Calmer, acting commissioner for Canada, and R. S. Ashton, There were 138 entries. Shameless Lobby. Washington Special. The most pitiable and at the same time, the most disgusting spectacle that now offends the national Capitol is the Huntington lobby. The list of paid lobbyists and attorneys now numbers twenty-eight, and their brazen attempts to Influence Congress to pass, the Pacific refunding bill have become the disgrace of the session. His paid agents have made Huntington believe that his bill will pass the House this session, though the chances are twenty to one it will fall. Huntington is getting feeble and shows visible signs of a collapse. The buzzards that have been living off of him for years fear that this may be thedr last chance at him and they are robbing him In a wholesale way playing a veritable bunko game. The I mm Iteration Dill. Washington Special. The McCall immigration bill will come up for action before the House as soon as the Pickler pension bill Is disposed of. The kernel of the McCall bill is the educational clause, which will shut out immigration from eastern European countries to a large extent, notably Poland, Russia, Bulgaria, Italy, Hungary and Spain. It will not in any material degree affect Sweden. Germany, France. Ireland and England. It will be bitterly fought by the great ocean steamship combination, composed of fourteen strong companies, that spend ftuO.OOO annually in Washington, keeping a. paid lobby there, subsidize newspapers, buy Congressmen and control vast influence directly and indirectly.

"Oh. -that's all right, my man," replied the smoker, coolly, "I am not superstitious. 1 don't believe In signs. " And the haughty menial In uniform said not a word. The smoker was too big. and Uncle Russell Sage doesn't pay his men enough to urge them to run risks that might lead up to a doctor bill. Killed. Ills Son and Himself. ERIE, Pa., April 24.

Not Pivotal. New York Mall and Express. This talk about New York being a "pivotal State" in the presidential , contest Is one of the most fanciful notions In current political fiction. New York Is Just about as "pivotal" as Pennsylvania The doubtful States this year all 11 south of Mason and Dixon's line. Mill tin. Hooted by Regulars. SAN FRANCISCO. April 24.

APAISTS DENOUNCED

pnnrciiLEs op tiie order, conDEMXED DY ARCHBISHOP IRELAND. He Likens the Threats of Members to the Croaking of Few Frogs In a PondBland to Be Opposed. NEW YORK, April 24. Archbishop Ireland, of St. Paul, who has been In Washington attending the consecration of the new bishop of Sioux Falls, Dr. (VGorman, was at the Fifthavenue Hotel to-night. In an Interview with a reporter he said that his church duties did not Interfere with his political opinion as an Individual American citizen. Asked to state his preference in regard to a presidential candidate, the Archbishop said: "As the summer advances I shall be better prepared to answer that question." "The A. P. As? Well, I have heard a great deal about them, but I have seen very little of them. The name of the A. P. A-'s is not legion. They are not numerous In America and where they arc found they are usually imported Americans. They croak a good deal, to make believe that they are numerous. Two or three, frogs In a swamp may keep a whole household from sleep. The chief reason of the secrecy they attach to their meetings and their membership is that they must hide their fewness of numbers. Why, if they count votes by millions, as their spokesmen say, do they not come out and support a regular A. P. A. ticket? Thi3 they will never dare do. Their usual pUn of campaign is to hitch themselves to the tall of a party or of a man whom they think likely to win and afterwards to claim the victory as their own. I have known several cases in the West where politicians affixed the stigma of the A. p. A. on tickets which they wished to defeat and to which it did not at all belong. A good deal of Intriguing goes on under cover of this shibboleth. The avowed principles of Apaism are utterly antiAmerican and worthy of our supreme contempt. No man deserving of the American citizenship and of the liberties it Insures would countenance them for an Instant. The only peril I foresee is that politicians and leaders of political,' parties show cowardice and thereby bring ruin to themselves, and, believing A. P. A.'s to be lying around thick as autumnal leaves in Vallambrosa, they may be frightened into speaking and voting so as to curry favor with trem. - In giving the least heed to Apaism politicians show their own folly, their own lack of principle; and they lose Immensely more than they could gain. Every concession to Apaism gives offense to multitudes of good citizens who do not say many loud words, but who do a lot of quiet, solid voting." A. P. A. Will Fight Bland. ST. LOUIS, April 24. The Republic to-day says: "Every indication points to a bitter fight on 'Silver Dick' Bland In the event of an effort being made In the Chicago convention to nominate him for the presidency of the United States. It has leaked out that Mrs. Bland is a devout member of the Catholic Church and has raised her children in that faith. The opposition to the nomination of the great l$-to-l free-silver apostle will come from the members of the A. P. A. As far as could be learned here Bland Is not a member of the church, and is, inclined to be liberal In his views on religious subjects, but the members of the secret religlo-pollt-lcal organization that will oppose his nomination and hl3 election. If he succeeds In being nominated in spite of their opposition, will not spare him for that. It Is sufficient for them to know that a member of the family is allied with the Church of Rome to lead them to make a fight on any man who seeks political preferment. An authoritative announcement that the A. P. A. would fight Bland's nomination and election was given to a reporter by Judge Stevens, State president of the order for Missouri and member of the national executive board." Cntchlnjrs Would Obey Instructions. WASHINGTON, April 24.-Gen. Thomas C. Catchlngs, one of the anti-free coinage silver men in the Mississippi delegation in the House, has written a letter In reply to a letter asking him if he would vote for free coinage at 16 to 1 if the convention instructed him to do so. General Catchlngs replied that he would not stultify himself by surrendering his convictions, but that he recognized the right of a nominating convention to instruct the nominee if It so desired. While personally he was opposed to Instructions, he said that If nominated and Instructed he would carry out the will of the convention. Pledged for McKlnley. BUSHNELU 111.. April 24.

"Papa, what is an historical epoch?" "It Is a period cf time that used to cover ages, bi't now It runs along anywhere from a week to ten days." They Wonld Come High. . Springfield Republican. Mr. Gladstone is to be commended for deeming the offer to write for an American

magazine at the rate of 11 a word, an offer made simply for a sensational advertisement, but it must be said that his speculations on the future life and his attempts to decide whether punishment Is to be eternal or not, which are now filling the pages of the North American Review, would come high at that figure. - They have not even Mr. Huxley's tart rejoinders to give them spice. WILL WOOD ON THE STAND. (Conelndcd from First Pgre. "Did you get some soil from near that fpot?" "Yes, sir." "Did you compare It chemically with the soil on the trousers now in 'your hands?" (Belonging to Scott Jackson.) "Yes, sir." . - "What was the result?" "I found the soil the same exactly." "Look at the knee of the right leg of the trousers." "Yes, ir." "Well, did you cut out that small piece of cloth r "Yes sir " "What did you do with it?" "I gave It to Dr. Jacobs." The cap Allen Johnson- said Jackson wore on the fatal Friday night was then handed to Professor Dlckore. ; "Did you examine that cap?" "Yes, sir." "What did you find on the Inside crown of that cap?" k "A spot of blood." "What kind?" ' "Mammalian blood." v "Was the blood inconsistent with the properties of human blood?" "No, sir." "You can't tell if it were human blood?" "No. sir." . . Jackson's coat, found In the sewer, was then shown the witness. Much to Jackson'3 delight, ProfesiKr Dlckore said he found no traces of blood spots on it. Colonel Nelson said that he would show that the gases and refuse In the sewer would sweep away all blood stains, and asked the witness what the effect of sewer gases and refuse would have on the coat." "It would dissolve the blood; .the sewer water would wash out the blood, I think." Recess was taken here, and at the afternoon session the witness was asked If he found any other substance Inside the valise beside the blood. "Yes, sir," he answered. "What was it?" "Soil or earth." "Did von analvvA Va arW

"No. but I put it under a "What did you find?" microscope." "That the soil was the same as that where the girl's body was found." The defense here took the witness, but his testimony remained unshaken. "When did he first tell you of this?" "In August 1895." "How many times did you talk about this with Jackson." "Several times." "How many times did Jackson tell you he had Illicit relations with Miss Bryan?" "He told me three times." "What did Jackson write to you from Cincinnati about Pearl's condition?" "In the latter part of October he wrote me asking how she was.""State the contents of the second letter you destroyed." "He sent me a prescription, telling me to give it to Pearl. "Did you give the prescription to Miss Bryan V "No, sir." "Did Jackson talk with you about this when he returned to Greencastle?" "Yes. sir." "What did he say?" . "He said now that I had neglected to give her the prescription there was nothing left to do but perform an operation." "Go on." "Well, later we went out to Pearl's and we talked the matter over. Jackson then said that he was going to take Pearl Bryan to Cincinnati and have the operation performed." JACKSON'S OTTSSING LETTER. "Did Jackson writs' you a letter Jan. 23?" "Yes, sir." . "What did you do with it?' "I gave it to Pearl Bryan. "When was" that r :'; "Friday." - . ' "What did Pearl say?" "She-said. 'Well. I'm going" "When did you see her again?"

"What was the date you received the letterr "Feb. 6." . "What became of It?"' ' "I destroyed it." "What did the letter say?" Defense objected and the objection was overruled. Wood "It was datd from Cincinnati and eald: 'Hello, Bill! I have made a big mistake and am in trouble. Stand by me. Wonder if Doc. will .stand by me? It went on in this iway,in a roving manner. That's all of importance there was in the letter." "Who was meant by Doc?" ' "Dr. Gillespie, I suppose." "How many times was the expression, Stand by me, used in this letter?" "Three times." : Wood then Identified a letter written to him by Jackson after the murder and before (the arrest, and It was offered in evidence. "Did Jackson have a .sort of mlckname if or Pearl Bryan?" "Yes, sir." . "What was it?" . "Bert." , - Attorney Hayes then ' read a letter from Jackson to Wood dated Feb. 5. It waa written after the murder and before Jackson's arrest. It was most damaging. It read: "Hello, Rill! Write letter home; sign Bert's name, telling the folks he Is somewhere in Chicago or some other place; that he has got a position, etc, and that he will advise them later about It. Say tired of home or anything else you want. You know how he writes.- Give letter to someone you can trust. How would Smith, of Lafayette, do? Tell the folks he was not at J , but at Lafayette, and traveling about the country. Get the-ietter off without one' second's delay, Burn this at once. Stick by j-our old chum. Bill, and I will help you out the same way or some other way some time. "Be careful what you write me. D." Attorney Hays then asked: "Did you ever court Pe?.rl Bryan?" "No. sir." "Ever associate with her much?" "Nc, sir." Defense then took the witness. During all Wood's testimony Jackson watched him closely and looked badly worried at the damaging evidence against him. Wood's evidence from, start to finish was damaging and greatly . impressed the Jury. WOOD CROSS-EXAMJNED. Colonel Crawford then questioned Wood, and plainly showed what sort of defense was intended to be made against his testimony. "Do you know William J. Grooms?" "Yes, sir." "Did you say to him In Greencastle about two weeks before Pearl Bryan. went away Jhat you were In tough luck: that you had a girl In a serious condition?" "No, sir." ' "Didn't he ask you who it was and you told him to go to hell?" "No. sir. I didn't." "Do you know lid Hunt, of Greencastle. Ind.?" ' "Yes, sir." "Dld'you'talk with Hunt In Indiana about Christmas?" "No. sir." "Lid you in his (Hunt's) room state that you had something nice at Greencastle, and that it was Pearl Bryan?" "So. sir; no, sir." "Are you sure?" "I was never In his room." "Did you talk with Hunt In Greencastle tn May or June, 1S95, and state that you were intimate with Pearl Bryan and that you would prove it?" "No. sir." "Did you converse with him In Indianapolis in June." "No, sir." "Didn't you talk with him in Irvln's store. In Indianapolis, and tell him that you had a soft snap with Pearl Bryan?" "No, sir." v"Do you know Herman Newhouse, of Greencastle?" "Yes, sir." "Did you have a conversation with him some time between April and June. 1835, In which you stated that you went out to Mr. Bryan's one mcrnlng and found no one but Pearl, and that you ' were Intimate with her?" "No. Fir: I didn't." -"Didn't you say to him that Pearl Bryan was very sentimental?" "No. sir; I didn't." "Where did you destroy that letter received on the train at South Bend?" "Right then and there." "Where were you going T' "To Cincinnati"

"Who handed you the letter.?". "My uncle." "Why did you destroy this letter?" "Because I was excited at the time and wanted to get rid of It." "Did the letter Incriminate Jackson, In your opinion?" "I think it would." "And still you destroyed It?" "Yes, sir." Colonel Crawford at this point arose and stated that he demanded the three letters found from Wood to Jackson In Jackson's possession when he was arrested be produced. The prosecution said they hadn't the letters. Colonel Crawford said he had seen the letters In the papers and wanted them. He said he was through with Wood for the present, but when he obtained the letters he wanted the right to recall the witness. Judge Helm granted him that right, and the witness was about to be excused when Col. Nelson called on Sheriff Plummer and aske4 for any letters in the case. WOOD'S LETTERS MISSING. Sheriff Plummer found a package of letters and Colonel Crawford opened It, hunting for the letters Wood wrote Jackson, all of which have been published, and which caused much comment at the time. Wood being taken sorely to task for their Indecency. Jackson assisted Colonel Crawford In finding the letters, but they could not be found, and the defensa was given time to find them. Attorney Hayes Were " you discharged after you were arrested?- -u; "Yes, sir." "The charges against you were nollled?" i "Yes, sir." Colonel Crawford wanted to know if Wood had not been discharged on the promise that he would testify. Wood answered "No." Wood was then excused. John BeUl was then called and examined by Colonel Lockhart. "What Is your business?" k "Hackdrlver in Cincinnati." "Did you meet any lady . at the Grand Central depot on Jan. 27?" "Yes, sir." "Who was it?" "Pearl Bryan." "How do you know?' "She asked for Jackson and Walling." The witness was not allowed to tell what Miss Bryan said to him. "I took her to the dental college," he said, "but I couldn't find Jackson. I then took her to the Indiana House. The next morning I took a note from Pearl Bryan to Jackson to the college. I faw Jackson and he told me to tell her that he couldn't meet her that morning, but would that Tuesday . evening." "Do you know Jackson?" "Yes, sir; that's him," said the hackman, pointing o the prisoner. "What did the lady have on the evening you met her at the station?" "She wore a black hat. with black feathers and red roses on it and a cape," - BBBBBSSBSnBSSSBBSMSMBBBBHISBMBB WILL "WOOD CALLED.

The Preacher's Son, Pale and Nervous, Tells Ills Story. Will Wood, amid considerable excitement, was called and took the stand as a witness for the prosecution. His attorney. Col. C. C. Matson, of Greencastle, was present to look after his client's interest Wood was examined by attorney Silas Hays, who had been employed to assist the prosecution. "What Is your name?" "Will Wood." "How old are you?" "I am nineteen." "Do you know Pearl Bryan?" "Yes, sir; she was my second cousin." "Do you know Scott Jackson?" "Yes, sir." ' "When did you meet him?" "In 1S91" "What were your relations with Jackson?" "Very confidential." "Did he tell you about his past life?'.', "A little." "What did he say?" , . "He said when he was about .fifteen his father died and he got a Job in a railroad office." "What did he say about traveling?" "Said he had crossed the ocean fifteen times." "Did he. tell you about being Indicted ' In Jersey City?" "No, sir." , , "Did he tell you about associating with lewd women?" Defense Objected. Objection sustained. "Did he brag of running women?" Defense objected and objection again sustalned. ' ' , "When did Jackson meet Pearl Bryan?" , "In the holidays of 1894 and 1833." "Who introduced him to her?" "I did." "Did she visit your house often, meeting Jackson?" "Yes sir." "Did Jackson visit Miss Bryan after you introduced him to her?" "Yes. sir, several times." "Were you ever with him 7 "Yes, sir." "Did Jackson take Pearl out riding?" "I don't know. "How frequent did ha visit the . Bryan homestead?" . "Not often." "When did Jackson go away from Greencastle?" "Oct. 12, 1835." ' "Did you correspond with him?" "I answered the letters he wrote me." "Do you know his handwriting?". "Yes, sir." "Did Jackson tell you he had Improper relations with Pearl Bryan?" "Yes, sir." JACKSON'S MOVEMENTS. Wood was then excused and Dave Wallingiford was called. His testimony not only corroborated that of Allen Johnson regarding the visit of Walling and Jackson with Pearl iBryan to the saloon on the night of the murder, but Walllngford said Jackson and Pearl had been to the saloon the night before, which was Thursday. Jackson has all along Insisted that he did not see Pearl after Wednesday noon, when he has always said he turned her over to Walling. Cross-examination, instead of weakening his evidence, resulted in filling some gaps that the prosecution had forgotten. 'Mrs. Stanley, Peari Bryan's sister, who left for home to-day, Is expected back in a few days. She has returned to Greencastle to pend two or three days with her ten-year-old daughter. The child has been alone for several days, and the mother fedt that she could no longer remain away. Another sister will take charge of the little one, and -Mrs. Stanley will return in two or three days. The Bryan family is well pleased with the evidence which has been brought out thus far. In the murder trial. "We are well satisfied." said Frank Bryan, a younger brother of the dead girl. "It seems to us that the evidence against Jackson Is very damaging.' We have no complaint to make. My mother Is bearing up well under the strain as well as cou'd be expected." The aged father and mother walked down York street alone early Friday morning. They were talking earnestly of the trial. They did not come Into the court room, however, until a few minutes after the session was opened. The Jackson trial and the HInshaw trial at Danville Ind., were compared Friday by H. C. Ujen, of Lebanon, who has seen many murder trials as. a newspaper correspondent. Said he: 7 "The evidence in the present case Is much more damaging to Scott Jackson than the testimony was against Hinshaw, the preacher accused of killing his wife. Hinshaw Is now serving a life sentence In the penitentiary at Jeffersonvllle, Ind. Public interest in Jackson's trial is much greater I think, than it ever was In Ilinshaw's. The arrangements In the court room are the best I have seen In twenty murder trials." General Matson. Wood's attorney, told a reporter to-day that he came from Greencastle partly through curiosity and partly through a desire to be present when fci3 client Is called to the witness stand. His presence created fresh Interest In Wood's case and strengthened the Impression that Wood's attorneys fear something damaging to the young man will come out In the trial. "Will the grand Jury at GreenoasM In dict Wood?" a reporter -asked of General J "No, I think not. There is nothing for which he can be Indicted in my opinion." It is claimed that the defense will at an opportune moment produce evidence to prove that the murder was committed In Cincinnati; that testimony will be adduced showing conclusively who conveyed the woman to Fort Thomas, and that Jackson had absolutely no connection with the crime. TALK ADOt'T WILL WOOD. Slay Yet Be an Effort to Indict Him Mrs. Jnrkxon's Condition. Special to the Indianapolis- Journal. GREENCASTLE, Ind.. April 24. The fourth day of the Jackson trial shows no abatement in the interest manifested In Greencastle. The evidence of the members of the Bryan family is being eagerly scanned and discussed, and their mention of the name of Will Wood in connection with that of Jackson in making calls at the house Is starting afresh stories about tho your, j man, end 13 trirjlrj cut ccro

guessing as to what Wood's testimony will be. There is some prospect of some furtner investigation here by a coming grand Jury, and tho evidence of Wood, it Is thought, will settle whether or not that investigation shall proceed. The condition of Mrs. Jackson, mother of the young man charged with murder; is exciting -much sympathy here. Mrs. Jackson was not In a physical condition at the time the news of the charge against her son reached her to sustain any such shock. She had Just received the news of the death of a sister, and the second surJrise caused her to be entirely prostrated, t has now been about ten weeks since the murder and the sensational features of the crime reached this city, and ev er since then Mm. Jackson has been confined to her room by her illness and grief. She gave up a pleasant little cottage adjoining the Post residence in order that she might be under the watchful care at all times of her daughter, and her burden has been at thnes almost more than she could bear. Mrs. Jackson exhibits great fortitude, however, and is bitter against no one, as sho realizes that Justice must be done. She has a large number of friends, and her condition is a source of much concern to them, who fear for her life in event a death sentence is imposed on her son. The news that Jackson had purchased at one time some cocaine is a point that is of Interest. The Bryan family hare all along sought to bring to iUht any evidence of cocaine ever having been used, and the fact that It has been testified to that Jackeon purchased some will no doubt more firmly than ever lead the family to. the belief of Jackson's guilt. The pace the trial is taking is still causing admiration here, and there is nothing but praise in Greencastle ifor the manner In which the case is being handled. Mr. Harry D. Hays, of the firm of Louis & Hays, is sick at his home here. He was the member of the shoe firm who expected to go to the trial and identify the shoes, but his illness prevented. He may go next wee' if needed. CORONATION SPLENDOR.

Gorfreous Snrroandlnsjs Amidst Which the Csar Will De Crowned. London Letter In New York Sun. Europe Is already turning Its eyes toward Moscow in anticipation of the all-surpassing splendors amli which the Czar of. all th Ruasias will assume the emblem of his autocratic power a month hence. Several potentates from distant parts of the earth have already begun their Journeys to the ancient capital, whore for three weeks civilization and barbarism will vie with each other in prodigal display of their spectacular resources. The late Czar had scarcely been burled, eighteen months ago, when preparations were begun for making the coronation of his successor the most imposing ceremony which the modern world has seen. The work has gone on quietly, almost secretly, ever since. Only within the past month have the plans for ths transformation of the old city everywhere become manifest. Now it is apparent that nothing in the hfstory of the Christian era can compare in grandeur and magnificence with the coming coronation of Nicolas II. The official programme of the festivities has Just been made known. A train, which will bo the finest that ever rode the rails, will convey the Czar and Czarina from St. Petersburg to Moscow on May 18. It will run between a double guard of soldiers, stationed along the four hundred miles of rails between the two cities. The railroad, for that matter, will be reserved for government purposes for an entire month, from April 21 until May 27. No attempt will be made to do general business in that . time, and the traveling public must take its chances. In fact, the management frankly confesses that it has not a fraction of th rolling stock which would be necessary to convey the passengers who would go to Moscow if they could, and it is, therefore, calmly decided not to try to carry ordinary -travelers, except incidentally, when the government requirements permit. It is Just as well for the comfort of intending visitors, for nobody who has not already engaged quarters will be able to find a bed in Moscow for love or money during the coronation period. 1 The "solemn entry of their imperial Majesties to Moscow" will take place on the 2lst. This wonderful pageant will be the chief feature of the festivities for the general public. The Russian government alone has ispent more than a million dollars In preparing for It, while the magnificent equipages of embassadors, foreign rulers and tributary princes will add much to the " ixmp and splendor. The chariots. Jewels, costumes, etc., which will pass down the Tverskala (the main street of 'Moscow), from the Petrovskl Palace to the Kremlin, will, it is estimated, represent a value. of twenty-million dollars. LI Hung Chang, for instance, will wear the Celestial coronation robes, which probably never before have been taken out of China, Several Ural, Circassian and Asiatic princes, of whom the western world seldom hears, will be there with eplendld retinues, all bearing evidences of the lavish and barbaric wealth of their resources. The only thing that corresponds with the magnificence of this procession are the prices charged for a vantage spot from which to view it. The figures are sickening, and I refrain from quoting them. The coronation Itself takes place on the 26th, in the Cathedral of the Assumption. It Is a pity that the ceremony cannot take place in Moscow's superb Cathedral of the Savior, a magnificent temple which accommodates fourteen thousand persons ahd which cost $13,030,000. The Cathedral of the Assumption is one of the three small churches within the Kremlin a sort of. citadel, including palaces, churches, armories and fortress. It is difficult to understand how five hundred persons could get within its walls In any comfort, but it is planned to crowd into its limited space no less than a thousand representatives of the world's rulers. The imperial dais has been erected in the center of the cathedral, and the throne will be placed about seven feet above the floor, reached by a dozen short step3. The members of the imperial family will be grouped around It. The Czar Is always self-crowned. He receives the magnificent, bauble from ths bishop and places it upon his own head. The Russian crown scarcely needs description, as It la among the most famous of Jewels. It consists of two parts symbolizing the Eastern and Western empires; The parts are Joined by a splendid ruby, to which are attached five diamonds in the form of a cross. The value of the emblem Is Sl.C0rt.000. Besides the crown the most remarkable. If not the most valuable. Russian Imperial Jewel Is the sceptre, executed In accordance with the orders of the Czar Paul for his coronation In April, 1797. Its chief value is due to the historical diamond Orloff. This celebrated gem. about the size of a pigeon's egg. has its tale of romance, intrigue and crime, which place it alongside of the Kohinoor for dramatic interest, while for size and beauty it holds a first rank among European diamonds. It once constituted one of the eyes of a famous idol, from which It was plundered by a French deserter and sold to an English sea captain: from him It passed to a London Jew, who offered It for sale to the Empress or Russia, The Empress, however, considered the price asked for It too hleh. It was afterward bought by Prince Orloff for 2.000,000 francs. Later cn the Prince presented the gem as a eift to Catherine. Following the coronation ceremony will be the illumination of Moscow for three successive evenings. This spectacle is expected to be only less brilliant than the burning of Rome for Nero's amusement. This feature alone of the celebration will cost the Imperial treasury more than a million dollars, without counting the vast expenditure by the city of Moscow and. the citizens. For the first time electricity will play a part, and the principal part. In this feature of a Russian coronation celebration. Na less than half a million llsrhts will blaze In the Kremlin alone, the arc lights, instead of the usual plain white glare, will represent monster open-petalled fuchsias, depending alone and In bunches from ornate poles and other supports, while many of the other design? for turning night into day are unique and artitle. The remaining public feature Is the Imperial ball.. Nominally the newly-crowned Czar receives his subjects Indiscriminately ax his Ruests at this function, ani mingles with them as an equal. As a matter of fact, the most elaborate precautions will be taken to prevent the admission of anyone whoe antecedents are not well known and satisfactory. Nihilism Is not yet dead In Uus?!a. The other festival items are the ball given by the French embassador on the 30th, the Austrian embassador's ball on the 31st, the ball of the Governor-general of Moscow on June 1, the visit to the Troitsa Monastery on the Sd and a musical soiree at the German embassy on the Sth. the departure of the Czar and Czarina for St. Petersburg after the banquet to the town authorities of Moscow on June 7. bringing the fertivitiea to a close, and the bill for all this, that portion of it. I mean, which the Imperial treisury will pay. is estimated at rot less than 2S.C00,000 roubles, or about $21,000,000. Anti-Trust mil Passed. ALBANY. N. Y.. April 21.

It Is said that while they were dining- together one day at the palaco his Imperial Majesty remarked that he regretted to learn that there were four newspapers in the United States which had published articles seriously reflecting on hit. administration, and he de!red Mr. Terrell to write President Cleveland and ask him to suppress them. "Why." replied the envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary of the United States, "there are 25.000 n wrpapers printed in the United States, and every one of them gives you every morning. ' UKill AM) LOW TARIFF. The Country Prospered Under the One and Suffered Under the Other. The Manufacturer. Last week thl9 Journal ventured the eucsrestlon that President Cleveland might perhaps be in error in supposing that he can "borrow the country rich." ThU has produced irritation in the mind of a reader in New York city, and he has replied to it with the remark that "You suppose, or rather believe, that any Republican can tax ths country rich if he be given the chance." We may infer that the reference la to ths protective tariff system, and the impllatlaa is that such a tariff is believed to be a machine for enriching the country by taxation of the people. This, however, is an erronequs Impression. In so far as the tariff lm-, pose3 taxation solely upon foreigners, it may be said, we suppose, to enrich the American people. But the tariff, so far as the promotion of domestic Industry is concerned, is to be regarded very much as a fence put around his garden by a farmer, liy excluding vermin and other deftructive ancies, it permits the farmer to conduct his operations without Invasion or molestation and to reap the fruits of his toil. The most Important function of such a tariff Is Its protective function. It shelters home Industry in such a manner that development and growth are poihle. This is ths theory, and it is fully sustained by fact. Undeniably, the Nation did grow rich during the thirty years In which protection was the unbroken practice. Thus the manufacturer! product of the United States, which was only JUS5.000.0GO in ISfiD, had grown to tD.W;o.0G0 In 1K0; and. while this amazincr conaequencs of protection was belrir reached, the Nation was busy payln? off its public debt. In l$7t) that debt was Ono.o00.orj; in 1830 it had fallec to J72J.(flO.0GO.
