New HAVEN, May BIN the trial for the
murder of Jennie Cramer to-day, the cross
examination of DIR. Sanford was continued,
the evidence ELECTED being similar to that
already offered. Referring to the probable
forcible violation of deceased, Prof. Chit
tenden presented from his memorandum
book each separate minute made of arsenic
found in several parts of the body.
Prof. M. c. White gave as his opinion that
if the injuries described upon Jennie Cramer
we've caused by sexual intercourse, it was
accompanied by brutal violence.
VIM. A. Countryman, reporter, testified
that on August 9th he had an interview with
James Malley, it,, and he denied knowing
Jennie Cramer, but on the question being
repeated he replied that he had seen her on
the streets; denied writing her letters or Wis

papers or mention his name in connection
with the case.

BETRAYED HIS Trust.

New YORK, May 3.-The citizens of Rah-
way, n. J., are very much excited over a
defalcation which has Just been made public
by Caleb S. Woodruff, late Democratic clerk
OF the Board of Water Commissioners OF
that city. The exact amount of money
stolen by Mr.. Woodruff has not yet been
ascertained, but it is thought il will reach a
sum between $1,000 and $4,000. Mr..
Woodruff belongs TO one OF the most
highly-respected families of Railway, in
which city he was born and brought up.
His father and mother are prominent
members OF the Presbyterian church, and
the disgrace which has overtaken their son
has overwhelmed them with sorrow. Wood
ruff disappeared from Railway on Thursday,
April 18th, and then for the first time the
citizens became aware that he had betrayed
his trust. Efforts are being made to compro-
mise with the friends of the defaulter, and it
is not believed in Railway that any serious
attempt will be made to apprehend him I'M
less these efforts fail. = 1t is thought that
Woodruff is concealed in New York.

ARTHUR AND THE MISSISSIPPI.
The Right of Property in the Greal
River Makes the Government Ne
spOnsibIe for fts Control.
To the Editors of the Appeal

To the Editors of the Appeal
Although some Southern newspapers COM
plain of President Arthur's message to Con-
gress in regard to the improvement of the
Mississippi river, the great majority, as well
of the people as of the press, esteem it as an
eminently wise and judicious state paper.
1t condenses into few words the whole con-
stitutional view of the subject, on the ground
that the Federal government has the possess
sion of and jurisdiction over the river. 1t
might have added one farther word and
claimed the right of properly in it, and
thereby have comprehended everything that
could be required to make the power to legis-
late on it ample and complete. By the pur-
chase of Louisiana, the dominion and owner
ship of this finland sea" were vested in the
United States. In the grants OF the govern
ment to the States which have been carved
out of the territory embraced in the purchase,
it is stipulated that the river shall be COM
mon highway and forever free to the citizens
Of The United States. This is in effect a reser-
walton OF Jurisdiction, and possession and
dominion" and carries, independently of the
right OF eminent domain, supreme power
over it. The government never parted with
its property in it. This must give it the
right to do everything necessary to give its
navigation the fullest efficiency. 1t carries
along with it the duty to protect the grants
of land which it has made from injuries by
its river as far practicable. Every one is
bound to prevent and restrain injury by his
property to the property of others, and this
principle is as applicable to States and ma
tions as to individuals. 1t was but a recog-
milton of this principle in its widest scope
which led TO the payment by England of the
damages done by the Alabama. We cannot,
therefore, do less than acknowledge our OBJ
legations for the justice and wisdom and pro-
priety of the message. A strict c)nstruc-
ZIONIST of the straitest sect, i can see nothing
in the message which does not accord with
that creed, even as promulgated by Mr.. CAL
houn long years ago. BENTON.

The floral display in the centre Of

especially the cut flowers some of
which had been worked into beauti-
full. floral designs. Those exhibited
by G. l.. Goodhue attracted much
attention.

adorned by many landscape and

The County Fair.


The twenty-third annual Fair ol
the Shiawassee County Aricultural
Association opened on Tuesday morn
ing under favorable auspicies. The
festival had been very thoroughly adj
vertised, and the officers had done all
in their power to perfect the arrange
ments so that, in every department,
exhibitors could be Accommodated and
spectators have most ample opportu-
nifty to inspect the various things on
exhibition. More than this the Sec
retary for several days had kept an
open office down town for the accom-
moaation of exhibitors, and the
Treasurer had been furnishing men,
bership tickets to all applicants, thus
facilitating the work on fair days.
To the casual observer it is apparent
that more and better accommodations
are needed on the grounds, and we
think the citizens of Owosso would
find it a better paying investment
than money at 10 per cent to SUBJ
scription say $4,000 or more, and
erect Floral Hall, and build S4oo.
or $500 worth of box and other stalls
in addition to those they now have
for cattle and horses, especially the
latter, for which there does not seem
to be scarcely any accommodations,
while it is a fact that Shiawassee coun-
ty farmers can place on exhibition
more and better horses than any 9TH
er county in Michigan, and perhaps
any other one county in the United
States. The stock breeders of Shia-
wassee can, also, exhibit if they only
will on their grounds as fine class
of Short Horn, Devon, Holstein, and
Jersey cattle, and also sheep, swine
poultry and pet stock, as can be
found in Michigan, for all of which
arrangements should be made that
owners need have no fears about find
ing ample accommodations on the
grounds, and a cordial welcome from
the citizens of OwoSso, who certainly
have not exhibited the interest in this
annual festival that its merits demand
and which would promote their own
as we'll the public prosperity.
Yet, all in all, the fair has been a
success, despite the fact that the third
day was not as bright as we had hop
ed it would be. The receipts are,
we think, better than they were last
year, and probably enough to pay all
bills and premiums though we fear the
hoped-for surplus to help put the soci-
ETY. on more permanent basis, finan-
cially, is wanting.
Herewith we place before our read
ers such notes concerning the many
beautiful and valuable fancy articles,
stock of all kinds, implements, etc.,
as it was possible for us amid the
multiplicity of other calls to make, yet
we know they are far from being what
they should be, and as we would have
made them had we had more time to
devote to personal inspection of
the articles and stock of every grade
placed on exhibition.

the Sioux by General Cook. For this
reason Agent McGilliaddy deposed
him from the craftsmanship of his own
bands. There are seven thousand
Sioux at Pine Ridge and seven thou
sand at the Rosebud agency. In an
outbreak there would be about three
thousand warriors.
Tucson, Arizona, August 17.-Ad-
vices from Magdalena, Sonora, of the
