Norton Pound Guilty

The jury in the case Of Charles Norton
charged with an outrageous assault upon
little Minnie Osler, a girl Of only eight years
Of age, remained out twenty-four hours.
About noon yesterday they agreed upon q
verdict, finding him guilty. The jury stood
from first until near the last nine to three in
favor of a verdict finding him guilty of rape.
AS a compromise the verdict was reached
finding him guilty Of assault with intent to
commit rape. When the verdict was given,
Norton, although quite swarthy, turned
white, and IL seemed for a moment as though
he would swoon. This was the first indica-
ton OF any feeling about the matter. The
evidence was very clear as II came from the
lips of the innocent little girl, and the theory
of his innocence could only be sustained by
the claim that this little girl was repeating u
story framed for her by her elders. The of.
Tense was q most aggravating one, and
beastly in its nature.
In the district court yesterday the case of
Turner, charged with being one OF the gang
who burglarized Maurcr's residence, was on
trial. The jury on q former trial disagreed.
The case of Quirk, for beng engaged in a
confidence game, is the next one TO be tried.
He was supposed to be engaged with Hall,
who has already gone over the road. There
is some reason to think that Qulrk was ar
rested for Kane, who has since been ar
rested, and that it was Kane, and not Quirk,
who was associated with Hall in contidenc.

KILL THE FIRST FLY.
Then There VIII be no Others. A Practical Hint for the Fly Ridden Families.

Then There Will be no Others. A Practical Hint for the Fly Hidden Families.
 From the New York Mail aud Express.l
 "How do the flies get into the house with screens in all of the windows and doorsi''
 is question asked by hundreds of house. wives who are annoyed by the pests. A
 naturalist who has looked closely into the
 habits af the fly said: "The swarms of
 flies that are so troublesome during the lat
 ter part of the summer and in the fall
 hatch out in the house. The screens shut
 really do more harm than good. It is phy-
 sically impossible to keep every fly out of the
 house in summer time, but by exercising 8
 little care, thousands of them may be ex-
 cluded.
 ''Nearly all of the trouble is caused by about a dozen sluggish specimens that emerged from their winter retreats on the first warm days of spring. They may be found on the sunny windows of any room not in constant use. They should be killed
 at once, as they deposit the eggs from which
 the millions of summer flies are matched.
 They are prolific insects and one old fly is
 capable of populating 8 whole house with progeny in single summer. Instead of killing the first fly of the season, many people make pet of it. It's sluggishness and half frozen condition excite pity, and it is not unusual for the most careful housekeeper to feed and warm it out of pure tender hearted ness. 4 folded towel should be kept handy and the early flies killed as soon as they appear. Then if care is taken to leave no particles of food and sugar scattered around the kitchen and dining room, and to keep all substances on which flies feed covered, fh ara uui11 hn m fr0uhIa from iaa Soma families who take these precautions even dispense with screens in the windows and doors. If the flies come in from outdoors they find nothing to live on and seek more congenial quarters. It is best to use screens, however, as damp and rainy weather invari- ably drives flies into the house, and they are troublesome until it is clear and warm out side

EXCITED CHICAGO STRIKERS
 Demand Full Employment for tho Old
 Men out Are Refused - Further
 Trouble Brewing.
 CHICAGO. Oct. 1.-The dissatisfied North Side conductors and drivers held a general meeting this morning. The principal business before 1t for discussion was the fact that over 200 of the old employees were yesterday re- fused the privileged of returning to their for mer positions and taking ont cars. A letter was prepared, addressed to Mayor Bolden- week of Lake View, asking, in conjunction with three members of the common council of Lake View, to ack as & committee to wait upon MT. Eerkers and ask him that the old drivers and conductors be reinstated. The voice of the men as they left the hall this morning was in favor of striking again.
 Before the meeting a report had spread among the men to the effect that the company had brought two hundred new men to the city
 yesterday. This created great excitement and for time it was thought than another strike would be ordered at the meeting. The men decided, however, to remain at work. The superintendent of the company said no new men had been employed since the agreement was signed.
 Mayor Bolden of Lake View waited upon President Yerkes this evening and made a plea that the company carry out the settle ment as generally understood by giving the old nen full employment instead of three | ffths time. Mr. Yerkes emphatically re- fused. Later an indignation meeting of resi- | dents of the north side and Lake View waa | held at the Sherman house. The 300 gentle. men present organized protective associa tion. A petition from the ex-strikers was taken under advisement, asking aid in com l polling Mir. Yerkes to carry out the agree ment. One of the new men, John Smith alias John Bull, had his jaw broken by {
 mob and was otherwise seriously hurt. He had just been discharged for incompetency and was endeavoring to leave the city.

Fiftieth Congress--First Session.

WASHINGTON, Oct. IF. FINANCIAL POLICY OF THE ADMINISTRATION. 1SNNATn.-After the consideration of mis- cellaneous business and before debate on the tariff bill was resumed MT. Teller proceeded to criticise the financial policy of the admin istration as expounded in the Secretary's Ie- cent speech in New York. The Secretary, MT. Teller said, had fallen into the very gem eral mistake that the interests of Wall street were the interests of the whole country, and in keeping with this idea the administration had adopted Wall street ideas of finance. He characterized the course of the treasury de- partment in not using the surplus for the purchase of the per cent. bonds as "imbe- eility of the grossest character" and said that
 more money mad been lost in that way than
 would have paid every vetoed pension bill for more than one hundred and fifty years. But that course he said had been in the i'm
 terest of the bondholder. the money lender,
 the money grabber, and not in the interest of
 the poor man. He complained that for year
 OF more, banks had been carrying from $40,-
 GOO, 900 to $60, ,000, 900 of the peoples money
 without interest. He had heard good deal
 of talk about the people being robbed through
 the tariff, but what did senators think about
 robbing the people of their interest money
 through the national banks.
 MR. ALLIsoN's PLEA FOR ADJOURNMENT.
 At the conclusion of Mr. Teller's speech
 Mir. Allison offered concurrent resolution
 providing that p. m. on Saturday the 20th of October that president of the Senate and the speaker of the House of Representatives adjourn their respective houses to meet on Monday, the 18th day of November at 12 o'clock. He asked unanimous consent for it's immediate consideration.
 MT. Cockrell suggested that the resolution be referred to a select committee of five Senators. He opposed recess and said that if Congress should adjourn to the regular day the first Monday in December, and should proceed without any holidays at Christmas time it would accomplish as much as by meeting November 19.
 Under MT. Morgan's objection the resolu- ton went over for one day.
 After a wandering debate on the tariff bill the Senate adjourned.
