The present storm alone is not relied upon so supply all the relief needed, but the cou littons are such as to indicate that a succession of similar heavy rains will follow closely upou each other at intervals of about three days until a high stage of water is secured throughout the country. The prospects for a wet November tire very promising. FLAGLER Imlleted fur I ho Killing of tlio Colored Hoy Knien Urem. Washington, Nov. 2.

When the commonwealth cIomhI its case yesterday afternoon his attorneys announced tin they considered the prosecution hud not made out its charge of murder, j and they would rest their case upon the evidence altered by the commonwealth and submit no testimony in defense of the prisoner. This decision was math' by Holmes upon the advice oi a well-known lawyer, who was at one time retained by the prisoner. The move seemed like a bold one. but was unquestionably done more iu desperation in the hope of iuJluenciug the jury and creating tlits impression in their minds that, being conscious of his innocence, and not having had time to prepare a proper defense. Holmes trusted himself to their sense of justice. Iu reality Holmes has no defense. The commonwealth has presented nc direct proof that Holmes murdered i'tetzel. Their chain of circumstantial evidence even was not as strong as was expected, and but for the ad missions at various times of Holmes himself the district attorney would nave nua a nio-t UTtucult taste in proving the charge. It was expected that the case would be sensational in the extreme, but after .Judge Arnold ruled out all the evidence bearing upon the murder of the children, the most ghastly features of Holmes' series of crimes were eliminated. Instead of furnishing any sensation, the trial itself has been us dull aud uninteresting to the spectators in the court room as the majority of ordinary murder cases are. Hut two incidents out of the ordinary have broken the monotony of the proceedings. These were the appearance upon the witness stand of Mrs. PieUel and her pathetic tale of her journey with Holmes, and the testifying against the prisoner of the girl that lis deceived into believing that she was Iiis legal wife. Jiii! etosing arguments ana tue charge of the judge will probably conbumc the better part of to-day. ROME WAS SHAKEN.

People were aroused from their slumbers aud lied to the open squares, and the greatest consternation prevailed. The convent of Santa Maria Maggiore was greatly damaged. A portion of the outer wall was overthrown, and part of the ceiling lias fallen. One of the inmates, a monk, was injured. The shocks were confined to the province of Home. They were felt very strongly ut the Castelii Itomani, but the damage done there was not serious.

These ! became more violent for a period of eightsecondsand then became slighter for nine seconds. Two clocks in the observatory stopped the moment tremblings began, each indicating the hour ?i:y3. The direction of the movements was from north to south. The old tower of the observatory was damaged. The shocks created a great panic among the inmates of the prison, and u mutiny was attempted by the prisoners. Troops were quickly called to the assistance of tho keepers, and in a short time the mutiny was suppressed and order restored The pope was awakened by the shocks. He was perfectly calm, and after rising made haste to inquire the news from the city. investigation disclosed the fact that the damage done by the quake is much greater than was at first supposed. Fout palaces and the Hunk of Italy were sc shaken that they are rendered unsafe for occupancy. The Palazzo Oiksealchi. one of the finest palaces in Koine, and five other structures of that char acter. are also seriously damaged. The building of the ministry of finance was also slightly damaged The quakes rung all the bells in the elt, and doors were sliauon aud win dows smashed everywhere.

's weekly review of trade says; The rapid recovery of cotton and the rise in sterling exchange to the pjint at which the htt exports of gold were made have not increased confidence. There is a little better demand for most manufactured products, retail distribution is fairly encouraging, and the closing of many works is less significant at this season than ii might be at others. It is a time of waiting, and uncertainty muy naturally continue several weeks. Cotton speculation turns for the moment on the disposition of holders to keep back tlteir cotton, which may compel higher prices, some say, however large the ulUmr.l) supply may be. Keeeipts are at present very .small compared witii last year's, and it is stated that bunks here have more money loaned on cotton to enable holders to keep it without marketing than ever before.

Very large estimates of the corn crop have depressed prices, al though exports have been in live weeks 12,212.s2L bushels, against 4,S'.'a.ülS last year, a fact whiclt has its weight in the wheat market also. Pork aud lard are not much changed, though hog receipts aud packing are heavy. The heavy wheat and corn movement helps railroads, but the earnings thus far reported for October .1.3 per cent, larger than last year, the third week showing less gain ttiau the othersare S.4 percent smaller than in 1502. The larger demand for manufactured products has held prices of cotton goods, and even advanced some prints, in spite of last week's decline in cotton. The mills are said to be carrying only moderate stocks. More activity is also seen in iron und steel products, though ISessemer and Urey l orge billets and plates are a little lower, and the average of quotations given today Is y.T.'i per ceut lower than at the highest point September 17, and 1 per cent, lower than in October three years ugo, and there is also a shading of quotations to secure -good business.

AND M'KINLEYISM. How (lie I'cl'rcftWn-iii Stoo.l When th Illsh Tariff Imw Wut I'iimum). Tho friends of lleujamin Harrison who, witn doubtful tact, but with very clear comprehension of public sent! ment, are striving to clear him of any responsibility f.'i tho McKinley law have doubtless forgotten tho ringing indorsement of that measure sent bv him as president to tho Fifty-first eon Kress ut tho opening of its second se.s sion in December, l&dl). Tho occasion was scarcely one for culogvof McKinleyism. Proud of their achievement in reforming tho tnrilY by increasing its burdens, the republicans in that house of representatives hai gone cheerfully before the people a month before seeking approval and re election. The legislative triumphs of their career had been the enactment of tho .Sherman silver law and the Mc Kinley tariff law. Tho vice of tho former had not at that time been discov ered and it did not form nn issue in the campaign. The merit of tho McKinley method of promoting prosperity bv in creasing the burdens of taxation and of facilitating commercial intercourse with foreign, nations by refusing to purchase their goods was the question before the electorate. Democrats confidently accepted the issue republicans had raised. The outcome of the general elections of November, ls00. is well remem bered obviously very fresh in the minds of tliosu politicians who are now striving to free ex-President Harrison from responsibility for it. Of the onu hundred and seventy republican congressmen who gathered to listen to tho reading of the president': message eighty-two had met defeat aa a reward for their activity in Increasing taxation at tho behest and for tho profit of the tariff-fed millionaires, out of whom two years earlier Senator Quay had fried the fat for tho bencht of the republican party. The people paid for the fat in increased taxation and vented their indignation upon republican candidates at the polls. A republican majority in tho houso had been converted into a democratic majority of one hundred and forty-eight. When Iiced, the czar, mounted the speaker's rostrum to call the house to order he gazed down upon a sea of faces destined at the end of that short session to disappear from congressional life. Into this cavo of gloom President Harrison ßent a trumpet blast of praise for the very measure which had caused the republican downfall. Under it, lie declared, "we shall secure a larger and more profitable participation in foreign trade than wo have over enjoyed and we shall recover a proportionate participation of tho ocean carrying trade of the world." How far these optimistic prophecies failed of realization Is a matter of recent history. Continuing Iiis eulogy of the law, which ho would now disavow, tho president declared it worthy "the support of those who believed that American legislation should conserve and defend American trade and the wages of American workmen," and insisted that there was "neither wisdom nor justice in the suggestion that tho subject of tariff revision shall be again opened before this law has had a fair trial." Clearly if President Harrison was indifferent to the progress of the tariff bill through congress, and only vaguely acquainted with its nature when he assumed responsibility equal to that of both houses of congress by signing it, he was ready enough in December, lbn0, to defend it with all the warmth of which his nature is capable. Indeed, his zeal in its behalf went beyond mcro defense. He looked out upon a great nation which had just repudiated the law aud its makers. Ho knew, as every American must know, that in this democracy the people are the source of the law-making power and their verdict is final and conclusive. But, in effect, President Harrison said to the republican congress: "Never mind the people. They do not know what they arc doing. They possess no intelligence equal to your worshipful body. Give no heed to their demand for repeal or amcudmeut of the .McKinley law. Pass on, rather, to the enactment of a federal election law, so that with the aid of United States judges and the regular nrmy the defeat of re- ; publican candidates for congress may henceforth be averted." Indeed the profane sentiment regarding the public which a certain Vandcrbilt once uttered the president then reechoed. "Misinformation regarding the terms of the act," he insisted, "had been widely disseminated abroad and at home." The simple, credulous pcoplo had been duped. They had not properly understood the merits of tho reciprocity clause in the bill which, by taxing our people higher on the goods from foreign nations which taxed their people on goods imported from ours, made tho whole thing .symmetrical and wholly bcneflccnL lint ho cheerfully prophesied that all this dissatisfaction pf the electorate would be "corrected by experience and that the evil auguries as to the results of the iuw confounded by the market reports, international trade balances and the general prosperity of our people." Here, again, President Ilnrrbon was luckless in his prophecy. After two years' experience tho peoplo who had already turned tho McKinley congress out of office ejected with even more emphasis the man who eigncd tho McKinley bill. Chicago Chronicle. A cross-roads republican organ in Ohio oracularly avers that the improvement of business is duo to tlm prospect of tho triumphant election of William McKinley ns president in 1800; and we guess that its claim is about as near light ns tho vaunt of iti republican contemporaries that flic better times arc the result of tho election last year of a republican congress which will not meet until next December.

PROSPERITY AND PRICES.

The Democrat U- T'urilT Urduct tho C'ot of Nrfi'itiarU-. When tho so thorn cotton crop and the western cereals now coming forwnrd are actually marketed the country has in prospect a season of great and substantial prosperity, It prom lr.es to extend not only to manufactur ing regions wheru the activity in iron and the textiles is bringing in money, but to the agricultural communities whose trade does so much tti increase the comfort of tho residents of till tho great cities. It is not to bo expected that tho Trib une should feel satisfied with mich a situation, hut it U useless for it to at tempt to ignore tho fact that our CX' ports for eight months this year slum a gain of eleven million three hundred and thirty thousand dollars. This is in spite of the homo-market idea that we ought not to try to trade with foreign ers, but as it is bringing money into tho countrv and helping to make a Mc Kinlev calamity campaign impossible the Tribune will have to take it into consideration. It will also have to tako into consid eration the proximity of the businesslike announcements in its advertising columns to tho columns in which it gives its own unousinessiiuo views or tho tariff. As every one knows, the MeKlulcv bill was drawn to increase taxes and decrease revenues. It made duties high to prevent importation. Having discovered that the annual revenue from the Wilson bill amounts to two dollars and thirty-six cents per capita, against only one dollar and ninety cents per capita under tho higher duties of the McKinley bill, the Tribuno makes the preposterous assertion that this increase is "drawn from the pock ets of the people." In the very next column, however, II advertises a variety of goods at Wilson bill prices, and in doing so utterly refutes its claim that tho increase iu rev enue is nn increase in taxes. When under the McKinley law did it ever offer at seventy-three cent3 a yard such "body Krüssels carpet with border as it is now offering? When under republican tariff duties did it ever invito tho pub lic to buy a suit of cheviot for ten dolars as it is doing now? Instead of doing anything of tho kind it contended that "a cheap coat makes a cheap man." That was absurd but logical McKinleyism, and it will either have to go back to it or re fuse to tako advertisements offering tho public low-tariff bargains ut Wil son-bill prices. X. Y. World. STILL INCREASING. Export! od ManufHcturo tJrowInt Code th Wllnoa Tariff. At the risk of infringing on their pa tience we must again ask: What havo our high tariff friends to say now of tho effect of tho Wilson bill on the manu facturing business of this country? Aro they still of the opinion that American mills and factories will not be able to meet European competition in their home territory? The now law has been in force about a year, and what Is tho result? The cotton mills of New England and the south aro all running. The weekly output of our iron furnaces has for a couple of months been larger than it was at any period undr the McKiney bill. The flourtnills of tho country are ousicr noxv man iney ever wer before. Our wood-working establishments arc behind in their work and steel manufacturers have orders enough ahead to keep them busy for months. The samo is truo of our woolen mills, tobacco factories and manufacturing establishments generali'. Trade has been stimulated and manu facturers are exceptionally busy in conm m "J a. sequence, 'iney nave ueen aoie u meet European competition, not only in the United States, but in other countries as well, and even m Europe. Our exports of manufactures have been Increasing steadily for several months. Tho only exception was in June. They were smaller that month than in May, but larger than in any other month of tho year. They were larger, too, than in June. 1S94. From a littlo over ?1'J,000,000 in February about tho same ns in the corresponding month of last year they have increased steadily month by month, not counting Hay, when our foreign trade was so excep tionally heavy that increase in the sue cccding month could not bo looked for. Tho otllcial report for August shows gain that month of about ?2,S00,00Q over the sales of our surplus manufacturers in the corresponding mouth of last year. As stated in that dispatch, our exports for the year to September amounted to 1 129,440,i04, as compared with CU8,050,143 in the first eight months of 1S94. If the same percentage of increase is kept up to the end of the year, tho total for 1S95 will foot up nearly 19.1,000,000, or 110,000,000 mora than our exports of manufactures in tho best fiscal year of tho McKinley period. Our manufacturers certainly have no reason to complain or the results or icmocrntic legislation on the tariff. They havo been benefited and so hava their customers and the country la general.
