THE wALKUP TRIAL.


EMpoRIA, KS, October 30.-The
continuation of Mrs. Walkup's cross
examination to-day, by Mr.. Story, oc-
cupied the forenoon session. The
witness handled her testimony under
cross-examination much better than
in the previous afternoon, and could
not be forced to contradict herself in
any important matters. The counsel
treated her courteously throughout.
She said she slept upstairs one night,
that of the fire. though she could not
fix the night, and to large number
of questions she could not give def
mite answer for lack ofa clear recOl-
lection of all the events. She contra
dicted many of the statements made
by witnesses, as to her having been
in conversation. The value OF her ev-
idence will depend upon the extent to
which the jury receive 1t as reliable.
Her demeanOr throughout the cxam-
nation made very generally favora-
Bile impression upon the audience so
far as her bearing aud intelligence arc
concerned. She concluded her testi.
mony by saying she had never before
been on witness-stand or in a court
room, and was congratulated AZ the
close OF her examination by
her counsel and many of hel
friends. The defense Is IL
put DR.. Parr, its best expert, on thu

WASHINGTON, October 30.--In his
first annual report to the secretary of
the interior upon the operation of the
labor bureau since its establishment,
Commissioner Carroll ID. Wright be-
gins with a statement of the organi-
cation of the bureau, aud review of
of the line of policy outlined for the
conduct of its investigations. The
principal features of that policy were.
a refusal to recognize parties and
that the bureau should be disconneLt-
ed with politics aud from dependence
ON organizations whether of working
men or employers, and from the
support of economic theories, in
dividual views or class in
terest. The commissioners believe
that this policy has generally been APP
proved throughout the country. The
investigation, us outlined, related to
the questions ofindustriai depression,
involving a study of that character,
their causes, and whether as to dura
ton, ct cetera, they are all alike in the
great producing countries. Such an
Investigation included the question
OF the Influence of depression on the
cost of living, the extent to which in
dustrles are involved, the cost of pro-
duction as influenced by the use of
machinery and other kindred
questions. Between March 18th
and June Gath twenty special agents
were appointed, aud at the close OF
fiscal year fifteen of these agents we're
actively employed in the United
States and five in Europe, collecting
the information required. The re.
suits of the investigation will be EN-.
bodied in the first annual report OF
the bureau, which will be submitted
early in the coming year. The ap
preparation for the expenses of tht
bureau for the year which ended
June 80, 1885, were ample for its ex
penses, and nearly $1,000 were con
verified into the treasury. In conclu-
sion, the commissioner says that thu
appropriation for the present iisca
year win, in his judgment, suffice fol
the first full years work of thu
bureau.
