Precisely why the farmers Of the
Northwest realize such low prices for
their crops that the sapient political
economist Of the Chicago Tribune has
advised those of them in Iowa to use
corn for fuel is Indicated BY the railway
statements tor last month. Eighteen
oftAs principal lines eenter,ng It New
York report an increase in their earn
logs for tho month over October of last
year of about twenty per cent. The
increase is not in the amount of freight
carried, for there has beeo no such 10.
crease of shipments, but in the freighte.
These statements suggest to our farmers
tie question whether if, With the in
crease Of railway facilities, freie hts are
to advance ia this ratio, it would not
be better that railway building should
stop? and the more important query,
whether there is no power in the laod
TO protect them against railway extor.
tions, which literally rob them of the
chief part of the annual prodact of
their farms ?-Mieago Inter- Ocean.

THE ASSETS OF THE CITY BEING HUNTED
TIP

Comptroller Green has instituted an iavestiga-
tion into the matter of arrearages OF payments due
the city on various accounts, such as bonds and
mortgages, interest on bonds and mortgages, and
rents for ferries, docks and slips, water lots,
market cellars houses &c. amounting In the ag-
Pregate to nearly two million dollars, and in many
cases remaining overdue for several years. Some
OF these arrearages may be put down as ''bad
the city officers whose duty 1t was 10 make the
collections or proceed against defaulting parties,
have been allowed to be outlawed but large por.
ton OF these arrearages Is considered good, and
the Comptroller has determined upon taking de.
cided and rigorous measures for their collection.
This action OF the Comptroller Will at least relieve
the taxpayers to some extent.

EDWARD s. STOKES.
SETTLEMENT OF BILL OF EXCEPTIONS.
The Indictment Pronounced G0od-Tinie
Granted Stokes to Plead.

The settlement OF the bill OF exceptions In the
case OF Edward s. Stokes came up for argument
yesterday before Judge CardOzo. On taking the
bench the Judge stated that he was not very well,
but he would endeayor to hear the argument 30 as
to enable decision to be reached in the matter
as speedily possible. Happily the arguments Of
the opposing counsel were made brief and, in fact
the points of difference were not very many. The
chief differences whether the District Attorney
had the right to insert his exceptions in the case
inasmuch as he was not an appealing party. The
Court acceded to the view advanced by the prison.
ers counsel. The settlement OF some other matters
of no very substantial difference concluded the mat
ter of the bill Of exceptions, they being mainly for
clerical errors.
District Attorney Garvin moved for Judgment on
the verdict.
Mr. Gerry opposed the motion. He insisted that
there should be an arrest of judgment-First on the
six grounds urged by Mr.. McKeon in the original
pleading; second, because the record shows that
sss sas sssssd a sfs
this being criminal case, the Court could not a.
rect a verdict on collateral issue Of such case.
He also argued that the Court cothd not direct a
Jury to find man guilty q purder: AS far back @ as
doing. Qaughter.J He merely mentioned this
by way Of illustration. He concluded by submitting
mistrial, and that ne verdict had been rendered
at ALL the jury having merely followed the direc-
tions of the Judge.
The Court at this point directed the prisoner to be
brought up from the Tombs, that he might be pres
ent while Judgment was delivered. In the mean
time His Honor said he could see no reason for
changing the opinion he gave during the trial. In
respect to his taking the case out of the hands OF
the jury, this was collateral proceeding. II there
was conflict Of evidence on any question which he
considered necessary to be submitted to the jury 1t
would be an error to take 1t from them; but in his
view there was none on any material question, and
therefore there was nothing left for him to do hut
direct them to find verdict one way or another,
this matter being directory by the Court.
After waiting about half an hour Stokes was
brought into the court room, large and curious
crowd following. He was as jaunty dressed
stepped as brlskly and looked In as fine physical
health as at the, commencement of his imprison
ment. He took his seat by his counsel
The District Attorney asked that the prisoner
plead over, and passed up the form of plea.
