State vs.. James Hopkins, charged with arson
in burning Plymouth mills at LeMars. june
% 1884, was concluded at Logan, Harrison
county, to-day, where the Gaze had been taken
on change of venue from Plymouth county.
The jury agreed on verdict Of not guilty on
the first ballot. Mr.. Hopkins was formerly
sheriff of Plymouth county, and the case was
one OF great interest owing TO the reputation
Of the accused. The court instru sted the
jury that they must fret find from the evil
debcs that the fire was the work of an incen-
diary before they could consider other testi-
mony. They found from the eyi 1ence that it
was not an incsndiary fire. and returned a
verdict of not guilty without further consider
ing evidence. The defense was that 1t was
conspiracy against the defendant, instituted
by enemies. Tpe costs of this trial alone
amounted to between 81, and $1,000.

and the market fell back to 8SYc rose to $40
and remained comparatively steady until
shortly before the close of the regular board,
when selling by two or three heavy IL ng"
traders caused the market to rece6e and close
under the last figures of yesterday. Receipts
here continue light, and were less at the prin-
cipal spring wheat points In the northwest

Cable advices were more encouraging to hold

quoting an advance, but the later weakness of

The Omaha ana wichita Railroad.

WICHITA, Kas,, Sept lb.-At a recent
meeting of the projectors of the Omaha and
Wichita railroad 1t was unanimously agreed
to submit propositions to tie various town
ships in Washington and Clay counties, this
state. Aid will be asked at about $1,000 per
mile. An election to vote 10000 In aid is
being held in this city to-day. The PROPOSE
tion will carry by large majority. Its pro-
jectors claim that the line Is branch of the
Burlington & AZ issouri railroad In Nebraska
and that 1t will bs a strong competing line
with the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, and
thoroughly independent of the Santa Fe and
Union Pacific lines. Tne only fear here is
that the great trunk lines which 1t crosses
will strangle the enterprise in its incIpieHcy.
1t is exrected that the building Of this line
will excite the strongest antagonism Of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe. This city and
valley have long needed a competing line to
Chicago and the building of this line viii
accomplish this result.

The Fights Draw.

CHICAGO, June 29.-At II O'clock to-
night the 5000 persons assembled at Bat
terry D had for nearly two hours good
naturally witnessed the ambitious efforts of
half dozen embryo sluggers, when
Jack Burke and Charles Mitchell faced each
other in the ring for the fourth time in their
lives. The Irish ladv looked as jaunty as
ever, and was vociferously cheered
as he climbed over the ropes
into the ring, and Mitchell
received his full share of applause upon his
appearance moment later. After great
delay, the sporting editor, Harry Palmer of
the Tribune was chosen referee. At 11:20
the first of the six rounds opened.
Two minutes more were eX-
hausted in very cautious watching
for an opening, and the round closed with
half dozen light taps, equally distributed
on the chests of each. The men appeared
exceedingly well matched, both in weight
and agility, and were astonishinglyl
alike in their methods of sparring
and guarding. At the opening of the
second round Mitchell commenced to force
the fighting, and continued to maintain that
attitude until the end of the fourth round,
Burke meanwhile appearing content, to act
On the defensive In the second round
Mitchell get in number of'hard hits
ON his adversary's chest, Burke
however, invariably cross countering with
such good effect that neither appeared to
gain any advantage Mitchell's rushes
and Burke's apparent distaste for
his adversary's constant offensive OPP
erations were the main features
of the third round, which ended with al
most simultaneous face hits and clinches,
The points made were about equally dis
tributed. In the fourth round number
of singing face and body blows were ex-
changed and good dealof clihching INDUCED
in. The fifth round was almost a repetition
of the fourth. The men were so well
matched, though, that almost the only tan
gible result was series of clinches.
Burke in the last round won some
applause by forcing his adversary
against the ropes. He got in two or three
heavy blows on Mitchell'S neck and face,
but they were instantly returned, 0and at
the end of the bout the result was so appar-
ent that a large part of the crowd did not
stop to hear the fourth of the Burke-Mitch-
ell series declared draw.
