"Many Of our manufactures could, if thy

foreign competition in the home market, but
command profitable export trade as well.
1t is q mistaken application Of The doctrine
of protection to prevent this. If that be
done, protection becomes favoritism. 1t is

GALVESTON, Tex, July "a San Ante
MO woman named Christian has confessed
10 poisoning seven women duriog her lie,
The c.se has for some months been 10 the
hshds OF detectives, who are now gradually
closing the Gordon OF facts hut many of the
particulars are yet shfoHded in mystery, and
much Of the history of this modern B1rgia
has not been made public. The crime.
originated in The New England States, one
oil their rsmifcatiops being in Boston, where
the investigation leading 10 the deyelop-
ments at present known wss frs. instituted.
The woman has had in all two or three hug-
bands, each OF whom, ii is learned, died
very suddenly. The details OF her diaboii-
cal deeds are quite fully kuown. In the
early morning Of November 8, 1881,
one J. 2. Burkett, stage driver.
with two passengers, Mr.. Howell, Of
Gonzales, and George NJ. Ilston, Of Chicago,
arrived at a camp thirty miles north of La
redo. The place was occu pied by a MeKic IN
TO attend TO the horses and by a WON sn, Mrs.
Christian, the cook. The weather was cold,
and Mrs. Christian, before serving breakfast,
brought a bottle Of liquor ard handed it
with glass to Burketi, VINO invited the two
passengers and the Mexican hostler to join
him also. The former both drank. Then
he passed it to the Mexican, who several
times declined, but 6nallytook a small drink,
Mrs. Christian remsrking: Don't insist;
the Mexican may think you want to poison
him." The invitation wss again extended to
the woman, and she refused, saying il was
too bitter, which had been remarked by the
others. Mr.. Burkett then drank all that re.
mained, and Immediately accused the WON an
Of putting quinine in it. In 4 moment Mr..
Is'on complained of his neck and head, sad
instantly fell backward i1 congulsions, fol-
lowed shortly by Mr.. Burkett, and beth
breathed their last in a very short time.
Mr.. Howell procured a quantity OF lard
oil from the woman snd then vomiled
freely. He afterward had conyulsions, bat
did not become senseless. The Mexican.
Immediately after taking his small drink.
was mentally affected by the poison, and sui.
cided by drowning before the poison had
its direct and fatal effect. Mr.. Howell began
TO recover 10 two or three hours. The woman
reached Laredo. She said she was Mr.. Burk-
et's vile, and laid claim 10 the hack and
animals and other effects, evidently belisV-
ing the hack and mules belonged to him, but
in this she erred, and thus secured DO fnsn
cial benefit from her 6endish act. 1t is
said, bowever, that one OF the motives for
the assassination OF Burkett was 10 prevent
the development of certain facts in civil
suit which has been pending in the District
Court, and the poisoning of the other men
became necessary through the circumsts noes
described. The belief was entertained al the
time that Mrs. Christian had willfully and
deliberately done the poisoning, but there
was no direct proof, and she managed TO
escape the law. Now it appears the guilty
wretch is in fair way to suffer for her
crimes.

The subject Of buying up trade dollars al
discount and paying them as wages 10
workingmen is exciting much attention.
Some of the newspapers call upon the trades
unions to use their influence TO stop this cis-
honest practice. The New York World says:
"Ths trade dollar has long been used by en-
ployers to psy for labor. II has been taken
in ordinary business transactions, and 10
one knows 10 what extent the country ia
flooded with these bogus representatives OF
an honest dollar. No one knows how much

States have been compelled to pay to the

THE LOTTERY CASES.
ARGUMENT CONTINUED BEFORE POSTMASTER
GENERAL GRESHAM

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Postm aster. Gen.
eral Gresham to-day heard the continuation
of argument in the lottery csses. Col. Moul-
ton and Gen. Belknap argued that the sus-
pension of the original order made by Post
msster-General Key, prohibiting the deliv-
cry of money orders and registered letters TO
the Louisiana Lottery Company, operated as
an abrogation to that order. Stever, repre-
senting Ex-Representative Robertson, con-
tended that the suspension was only intended
to allow the judicial determination of the
statutes for the lottery company, and when
their appeal ives dismissed by the Supreme
Court the suspension of the order expired,
apd the original order of prohibition again
prevailed. Sanders followed for The Louis
lana Distribution Company, and Southard
spoke Tor the Colorado Lottery Company.
Souhard opposed the revival of the pro-
h ibitiye order, and contendsd that even if re-
vived it could not legally be enforced, be-
cause it applied to Dauphin individually,
and not TO mail matter addressed to the
Louisiana Lottery Company. He held that
such an order was contrary to The statute.
Assistant Acknowledgement Freeman pre-
sented the case for the Department of JUS
tice, asserting that the elig nal order set out
Dauphin's connection with the Louisiana
Lottery Company. He said the only resson
lOr ulsmlssipS tbc ulli was the knOWieOge on
the part Of the Louisiana Company that their
rotten concern would not stand investigation
in an equity court. When Postm sster Gen.
eral Key went out of Office the suspensory
order ceased to operate.
A discussion sprang up between Judge
Freeman and Col. Moulton as to Postm aster-
General Keys object in making the suspen.
sorry order. Col. Moulton declared that be
could furnish proof that Postmaster General
Key had expressed himself as satisfied TIM
fraud had not been proved.
Postmaster-GeneTa al Gresham said he dc
not believe Judge Key meant to absolutely
revoke the original order. He asked if ths
gentleman would have him believe that
Judge Key said he was not convinced ther,
was fraud, yet, instead of revokiug his order
| he only suspended il to let the company pc
| to the Supreme Court for relief.
Col. Moulton answered that he was no
responsible for the logic of Judge Kew
course, but was content to present his utter
| auces.
Some argument followed as to the appIica
| bility OF different statutes, and hearip.
closed upon the preliminary point as /.
whether the suspeusory order of Februar,
| 27, 1880, is still in force.
| tmaster.General Gresham reserved hi
decision. 1t is probable that decision vii
be reached, however, and publicly announce
within the next twenty four hours. The ger
eral impression derived from the tenor {
4 Judge Gresham's comments and question
during the progress of the hearing, is that
| will be adverse to the Louisiana Compsn
and all other lotteries.
