the trip and to see the race, but he
never occupied it, Night and day for

THE FLOUR INDUSTRY OF
PENNSYL VANIA.

The annual wheat crop of this State
is, on an average, 100000 bushels.
This vast wheat product mostly finds
its way into the manufacture Of the
'staff OF life" and helps to constitute
the second largest industry in the
keystone State. In Pennsylvania
there are 1905 -four mills, which are
supplied with S,0l9 run oi stone,
The valuation Of the annual product
of these establishments is over $50 900,
900, while employment is furnished in
and about them to between 1900 and
15 900 industrious and deserving oper-
atives The great grain growing and
Touring producing centres Of Pennsyl'
vania are Blair, Cambria, Huntingdon,
Snyder, Centre, Clinton, Lycoming,
Northumberland, Franklin, Danphin,
Juniata, Clearfeld, Somerset, Mifilin,
Perry, Sullivan, Montour, Bedford,
Fulton, Union, Northampton, Indiana,
Jefferson, Lnzerne, Carbon, Columbia,
Lehigb, Berks, Bucks, Lancaster, York
and adjacent counties.

JUDGE BOND rules NUMBER OF CASES OUT

CHARLESTON. April 22.-At the session OF
the United States Circuit Court this morn.
Ing Judge Bond instructed the Jury charged
with the trial OF the Barnwcl county cleo
tlon.conspiracy cases TO bringin verdict Of
mot guilty" on the ground OF defect in
The Information. The information consisted
OF fIye separate counts. The first four
counts charged that 7. T+alucrsess, with
persons unknown, conspired 10 prevent
Fred. n. Nix (coloTed) and others, who
were qualified voters, from meeting pcacea-
biy in consultation in respect to pub
nc affairs and immunity granted to them
by the United States. The fifth count
charged that II. Traue:sess cnnspired
70 inlure and Cypress Nix in the
exercise OF n right to vote ri Federal cleo
ton on account Of his race and color. The
first four counts, the Judge held, could not
be maintained, because they contained no
allegation that the parties alleged to have
been intcrfcrcd with had been molested on
account OF their race or color. The fifth
count, he said, while it charged an offence
under the sratute-that is, the right TO vote
at an election without distinction OF race or
coor-there had been no proof offered TO
sustain it. The jury accordingly brought
in verdict OF not guilty.
United States District Attorney Northrop
then, to the surprise Of the vast audience in
the courtroom, moved to continue all the
political eases until the next November term
OF the court, and stated as his ground for
making such motion that it would be i'm
possible, after the ruling Of the Court just
made. and in consequence OF The time a.
ready consumed in dilatory motions on the
part OF the defence, TO proceed with the
trials without enormous expense to the
Government. There bein" no objection to
the motion or the p'rt Of the defence, the
eases were all continued until the next
