The Postmaster General has submitted to
tho Secretary OF the Treasury his esti-
mates for appropriations for the postal
service for the fiscal year ending June 80.
1890. They aggregate s66.s12O 73. as against

and mailbag catchers. the estimates are
100000 less than the appropriation for
tho present year. and tho sum for locks
and keys is $4,000 less than for the pres
ent year. These reductions. it is said.
are occasioned by the systematic repair
of all detective pouches and bags and by
the bringing into use OF locks which have
accumulated in the various postoffices
throughout tho country. The revenues OF
tho department for tho fiscal year ending
June 30. 1890. are estimated ut $50. sos. 6SS.
which is an increase OF $9.8l3.48l over the
revenues for the fiscal year ended June 80.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Hung Jury In Murder Trial Equivalent
TO a Discharge.

A Hung Jury I'm a Murder Trial Equivalent
to Discharge.
The Supreme Court OF Pennsylvania has
rendered remarkable decision relative 20
the trial OF persons charged with murder.
1t was decided the disagreement Of the jury
in murder trials is equivalent to an acquit-
tai. and that the accused person cannot
be again arraigned for trial after one
jury has failed to agree. The ground
for the decision is the Constitution. which
says that man cannot more than once be
put in jeopardy Of life and limb" The Su-
prcme Court in its decision declares that the
Constitution Is clear on the point raised. and
the fact makes it remarkable that the point
was never raised before. Many men have
been tried for murder second time. eon-
victed and hanged. and il would be inter-
csting to know how many have been un-
constitutionally hanged in Pennsylvania.
The decision will have the effect OF releas-
ing several men who are now awaiting trial
after juries In their first trial had Ill sa-
greed. Hereafter it will be much more
difficult 10 convict a man OF murder In
Pennsylvania. since the lawyers need only
work for disagreement in order to save
their clients
