The AnnrcIhista

CH1CAGo, Oct. 5.-Mr. Solomon, one of the
attorneys for the defense in the anarchist
trial, occupied nearly the entire day in his
argument upon the motion for new trial.
He contended that the only offense for which
the prisoners could properly be tried was for
conspiracy. He held that under the law they
had perfect right to say what they thought
but that they could not be held for murder
which was committed in consequence of their
speeches. He also raised the point that 1t
was improper for Jurors to take notes during
the trial.
Mr.. Solomon was followed by his associate
counsel, Messrs Ieisler and Foster. Fosters
opening was of rare eoquence. He dwelt
upon the impossibility of securing a fair and
impartial trial with a jury who acknowledged
themselves to be prejudiced. Too much
praise for his management of the case had
Just as well and just as successfully have
tried itself Mr. Foster will resume tomorrow.

Geronimo.
"fhoSe reports" replied the general
"emanate from the brains OF one un-
scrupulous and cnvious person, whose object
appears to be to disort the truth
with the intention OF injuring me regardless
of the just praise due the troops for their ex-
traordnHry services in achieving permanent
peace in the southwest Many of the state
mcnts were entirely devoid of truth. Others
are weak arguments and labored theories.
The pretense that the surrender of Geronimo
and other hoStlcs was other than the result
OF gallant and arduous operations of the
troops i'll the field is simply childish.

NEW PREURO PLANS.
A Decision Reached in Regard to
Chicago Cattle.

CHICAGO, Oct. 5.--[Special Telegram to
the BEE. 1t looks as though things are
coming to a head, said Secretary Johnson,
of the Illinois Live Stock exchange '"rhe
distllcrieS are getting tired OF the delay,
owners OF cattle are beginning to see that the
longer the slaughter is put off the greater
will be their loss, and altogether it now looks
as if active steps will soon be taken. Things
have stood in the way of dispos-
ing of distillery cattle supposed
to be infected more or less by pleuro-
pneumonia. First the owners of the herds
opposed the commission; second, - the, state
had not money enough to pay for sound cat
tie that are under quarantine; third, the
packing interest demanded protection from
the sale of the slaughtered herds But the
persons who were most anxious for the quar-
antine have had enough of it, and the scare
which has gone abroad is almost as bad on
the stock interests as the active sale of meat
would have been, and 50 it has come about
that this proposition has been formally made
by the state commission: Cattle under
quarantine to be divided into three classes,
as follows: |. Sick and condemned cattle,
which shall be totally destroyed at their
owners loss. 2. Those which are not actually
diseased and are not fit for market, which
shall be disposed of at the expense of the
state. 3. Those which pass muster as being
perfectly sound and healthy, after careful
examination before and after slaughter by
veterinarian, which shall then be turned
over to the owner to be disposed of by him
without any expense to the state except that
of the slaughter. 1t is thought that this pro-
position will be acceptable to all concerned
as the best way out of the bad condition of
affairs. State Veterinarian Casewell will go
to New York at once on other matters and
