John Lamb, Congressman from this dis

said Davis, rounding of the sentence with

Lambs chest. The CongressmLn threw
up the weapon with hand in which he
held some legal papers, holding cane In
the other, and lodged as the " eapon was
discharged. The ball passed over his
shoulder through passing wagon, lodging
in the drivers foot, intlcting q painful
wound. Lamb went into the store next

LONDON, June 1.-THE trial OF the
dynamite conspirators, DR.. Gallagher,
Bernard Gallagher, Ansburg, Burtin,
Whitehead and Wilson charged with trea.
son, was begun this morning. The
Court was crowded. Mr.. Clarke, OF the
counsel for the defense, challenged three
Jurors on behalf Of Dr.. Gallagher. Henry
James, the Attorney General opened the
case for the prosecution. He said the prison
ers were charged with an offense very near
high treason. II was necessary 10 prove
ali bad intended to levy war against the
Qneen. 1t was sufficient TO show that a
conspiracy existed to take lives and de-
stroy properly without regard TO who suf.
iered. He said Brrnard Gallagher was in
different position from the other prison
ers. His own statement might be consid-
cred TO connect him with the dynamite
plot, but the evidence in regard to
him required very careful weighing, 80 as
not 10 risk Furnishing an innocent man. II
the facts alleged against the prisoners are
fully established there IL not a person in
the country who will not be pleased that
they have been brought TO justice. Lynch,
alias Norman, the inforTer, repeated his
testimony in regard to the doings OF the
conspirators previous to and after their ar.
rival in England from America, which he
gave at the preliminary hearing.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE Senators

a consolidation OF internal revenue dis

departed and the excitement has subsidized
The impression is now that the President
and Secretary Folger will not act hastily In
matter affecting so directly the most
vital interests Of the country, especially
since the tax laws have been changed so
radically and the results cannot readily be

be reduced with safety is generally be.
lieyed, but the utmost care and study il
necessary that the reduction be not carried
too far or brought about in way that will

THE MArCH MoNoPoLr.
The Tax Is Removed But the Prices Re
main the Same.

WASHINGTON, June 1l.-Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the stamp tax on matches
has been abolished, purchasers Of that
commodity report that the great com.
bination which controls the trade keeps the
prices up 10 the same notch as before,
and declare there Is no intention
OF lowering the scale. The imposi-
tion OF the stamp tax by the commission
derived from purchasing large amounts OF
stamps from the Government enabled the
monopoly to shut ont all competition in the
trade BY ioweringthe price, when necessary,
below the cost oil manufacture, and making
what profit was derived from the Stamp
Commission alone, and 1t was thought that
when the tax was abolished competition
would be stimulated and the monopoly
would be unable to dictate the price OF
matches The tax has been abolished for
six weeks, but the price remains thesame as
before, the match combination reaping not
only the legitimate profit on the manuiac-
ture, but also the amount which the Gov
eminent has hitherto derived from the
stamp tax. The policy Of the combination
IL doubtless to buy up all competition
80 long as It can control trade In that way
without too great inroads upon its profits
but dealers express the belief that this state
OF things cannot exist very long, and thai
matches, q commodity which every family
in the land Is required to use, will become
much cheaper as soon as penalty competi
