DRAMATIC COURT SCENE
REAL AcTiNG BY A WITNESS IN TIE
TALLY-sHEET CASE.

Tho Unsavory Reputation of the Princi-
pal witness-To Exc Out q Living He
Bought Flour at $3.50 on Time and
sold 1t at s5 for Cash.
COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 7.--After a few I'M
important questions had been asked AL
gernon Granville, tho prosecuting witness
in the tally-sheet forgery trial, the state
turned him over to the defense for CROSS
examination. Ext Congressman Con-
verse conducted this, and succeed in
pressing from the witness a story of an
adventurous and questionable life. Born
in England and coming to New York in
1875, it was shown that under different
names and with different occupations, he
operated at New York city, Chicago, Ft.
Wayne, Toronto, st. Louis, Kansas City,
Denver, Cincinnati, Springfield, o., and
this city. Here he was arrested for OBJ
tanning goods under false pretenses, and
sent to the penitentiary for m year.
From letters and bills, which the witness
recognized as his, 1t was shown that he
was buying -four on time for &c. so per
barrel and selling for IS for cash. The
witness was thoroughly exasperated with
this dragging forth Of the history
of his life in the effort to impeach his
testimony, and when Mr.. Converse read
from. his (Granville's) testimony given in
q former trial of the case where he told
a story diametricaiiy opposed to the one
he tells now, and asked him when he
was lying, and why he did it, he re-
manned silent for n minute and then
broke out: II was lying then. 1 was
forced to lie to shield Bob Montgomery,
AS he calculated this in a dramatic way,
he leaned over in his chair and pointed
his finger at Defendant Montgomery. 1t
was like the climax in a good play, well
put on. The crowd in the court room,
and the lawyers, looked at the man In
silence. Montgomery's face was livid
with rage. 1t was some moments before
the proceedings were resumed.

ST.. PAUL, MINI, Feb. For some
months large numbers of Manitobans,
the majority from Winnipeg, have ar
lived in st. Paul with the idea of max
ing this city their abiding place. This
exodus has been caused principally by
the disgust and disaffection felt by the
people at the unjust and impolitic treat
ment Manitoba has experienced at the
hands OF the Dominion government, in
the matter of abolishing the railway
monopoly. To carry out a bargain with
the Canadian Pacific railway the govern.
ment has sacrificed the bone and sinew OF

CONFIDENCE
Bismarck's Reassuring Speech Enlivens
~Stagnant Business.

SPC0Sh
%Stagnant Business.
LONDON, Feb. 7.--All Of the European
bourses were stagnant until the gist of
Prince Bismarck's speech became known,
when government and other securities
took a decided upward turn, Russian and
Austrian bonds advancing more than l per
cent. This was the only indication Of
the effect of the German chancellor's ex-
p%ressions at present, but the feeling Is
general that the speech has had q tend
ency to restore confidence everywhere.
Full and accurate reports Of the speech
will not be published in London until
the communications Of the special corre-
spondents come to hand, and there Is a
general disposition on the part of the
press to withhold comment upon
the address until their arrival. 1t
is suspected that Bismarck's reference
to the Eastern question points to Bull
garia, whose case is entirely beyond the
sphere of the Austro-German treaty,
though a Russian advance upon thai
principally would no doubt involve Aus
tria in war. Every body is, of course,
convinced that a Russian invasion will
be the ultimate fate of Bulgaria, but no.
body believes that such a movement will
be executed until a much more plausible
pretext arises han any that has hitherto
been made the basis of Russian interior
ence in that country. What is much
more probable, is that events in Bulgaria
will so shape themselves in the near flu
ture that Prince Ferdinand's career as a
monarch will be terminated through the
action of Austria, rather than Russia, in
which case, both Germany and Austria
having been represented constructively
in the persons of Prince Alexander and
Ferdinand on the Bulgarian throne,
Russia's claim TO similar privilege cen
not be easily ignored.

that natural gas will ever be found in
Chicago in great quantities. The Tren-
ton limestone, he states, which is the
source of the gas supply, dips as it passes
Under Chicago and fifty miles west of
this city, and at the same distance east
rises nearer the surface. Any gas in the
rock, the professor says, would naturally
be found at the highest points, either to
tho west in Lasalle county, or some dis
lance east in Indiana.
