NEW CASTLE Dec. q
There is very noticeable decrease IN the at
tendance at Court since the conclusion of the
capital cases. During the Taylor and Wood
ward trials there was hardly standing space
available in the Court room. Long before the
assembling of Court every seat and space was oc-
cupied The liyeliest interest was manifested
by the crowd, and groups Of men were seen along
the street expressing their opinions as to the
guilt and innocence OF the parties Oh trial. But
Immediately after the rendition OF the verdict
in Woodwards case the room appeared aim ost
deserted. none remaining but the witnesses in
the civil suits and the small number of uninter-
ested persons.
There seems to be general satisfaction over
the result of the Woodward case, hut here an d
there you hear expressions of. utter disgust that
verdict should be rendered out of sympathy, rs
they say, when the facts warranted conviction
of at least manslaughter.
There is but one more case to be tried in the
criminal court this term. Ii is petty larceny
case which will probably come on to- morrow.
The Court of Oyer and Terminer has adjourned
without date.
After the trial OF the remaining criminal case
tne clYl bnslness VIII go ON uniitefruptedly.
How long court will continue is hard to deter
mine, but all of this week will he taken up, and
probably greater part of next. There weie 81
cases on the docket in the criminal court thus
term, 20 of which were tried Notwithstanding the
time consumed by the two murder trials. OF the
remaining 30, nohe pros were entered in quite a
number and the rest were continued until next
term.
About so prisoners have been discharged dur.
ing the term, but there remains about 55 still
under sentence. This has undoubtedly been
the most important session Of court for some
time and more cases have aspeared OH the
docket than at any previous term for two years.

The Transportation Question In COn-
gress.
MoTIyEs or MEMBERs IN suppoRTINo 1r

MOTIVES OF MEMBERS IN SUPPORTING IT.
Especial Dispatch to the New York Times.I
WAsHINeT n, Dec e.
The cheap transportation question will claim
attention again in Congress this Winter, but
thera seems to be no expectation on the part of
the advocates of the different schemes that any
action can be obtained There has been no
question before Congress recently that has at
tracted so much attention, and at the same
time failed to obtain more sincere advo-
Gates Many members OF each house will
attach themselves to particular schemes in
which their constituents are interested
but scarcely one will be found addressing
himself to the task of improving, in the best
way, the means Of traffic between the interior
and the seaboard. The opening OF the mouth
of the Mississippi will be again urged, and the
Eads plan Of constructing jetties will be pressed
with renewed vigor Mr.. Eads has spent the
Summer examining the principal constructions
of jetties in Europe, and his convictions Of the
feasibility OF deepening the Mississippi River
by bis plan presented last year, have been
strengthened. This struggle over the methods
of reaching tue desired result has its basis in =
large degree in the hostility between engineers
in military and civil life. Army engineers for
the most part think there is no engineering
ability or learning outside the Engineer Corps,
and, on the other hand civilians have little more
esteem for their professional rivals in the army
In this instance, almost all the army engineers
oppose the jetty scheme and the civilians al
most as generally oppose the project of canal
Delay in beginning any work on the river
will be the consequence.

Anderson, 1901 Market ST. The whole Of the
lower floor Of the handsome residence was
thrown open to the public and with the beauti-
full decorations, numerous lights, and pretty la
dies in attendance elected universal admiration.
The parlors on the right of the entrance were
devoted to irefreshment department, which was

rolls biscuits, ETC., every article Of which was

give unversed satisfaction, whilst the ice cream,
cakes, candies fruit, etc, were OF the very best
The large parlor fronting 18Th st. was used for
the display of the fancy goods, and the numer-
GUS tables were loaded down with articles of the

These tables were presided over by Mrs. Ryan, of

and Miss NAPLES, who were kept busy the whole
evening in supplying wants Of their customers,
many of whom availed themselves of this OPP
portunity to supply themselves with toys for the

charge of the Kriss Kringe, who, for the small
sum of cents, kindly permits the little ones to
help themselves from the grab basket, provided
they take but one packet at a time.
The art gallery (on the I'd fioor) consisting of
a series of very large and beautiful views of the
70 Semitic Valley, is we'll worthy Of visit.
