The seat Of the bitterest hostility to the
Jews has been the city of Vienna, but ven
geance seems to have come upon it at last. A
great event in Vienna every year has been the
international grain market, the great market
for the continent. Last year 5000 persons at
tended it. But last spring Hebrew resentment
was stirred to such point that 25O firms OF
Buda Pesth signed a declaration that they
would not deal in Vienna, and the movement
was supported In various towns Of Hungary
and in Prague The Vienna association, seeing
the dangerous extravaganza to which the
anti-Semitic agitation had been carried, pc
titioned the emperor to allay it, but the result
could not be avoided The efforts Of the
Jews have made the corn market Of this year
a comparative failure. Instead Of the 1000
merchants Of lSSS, there have been but {, 600
and proposition kas arisen also to establish
another international corn market in Paris.

Sir William McGregor, governor Of New
Guinea, has recently made the ascent Of
Mount Victoria, 49, III feet high, the highest
peak Of the Owen Stanley range. On the
summit daisies, buttercups, forget-me nots,
grasses and heather were growing, and larks
were seen. Icicles and white frosts were met
with. The country traversed by the party
was very mountainous. Natives were met
with only on two occasions They were stout,
well built men, with short legs. No women
were seen. They were destitute Of warlike
implements. Many new plants and birds were
discovered and one animal resembling bear,

The improved electric motor which has been
brought forward by Cincinnati inventor,
and for which various advantages have been
claimed over all others, has been subjected to
repeated exhibitoryStests, and it would appear
has given very satisfactory evidence of its
value This motor, according to all accounts,
possesses a method of speed regulation which
fulfills in a remarkable degree the great de-
sideratum Of simplicity, as well as other de-
sirable qualities. The arrangement consists
Of two peculiarly constructed coils Of wire
suitably placed in connection with a centrif-
ugal governor, driven from the armature
shaft by means Of a rubber belt designed espe-
cially for the purpose, and the mechanism is
such that, should the governor belt break or
fly OF, the arms will collapse and close, and
the motor be Immediately stopped.-New

In HER OWN DEFENSE
Mrs. Caroline Davis Tells the Court All
She Knows About Her Husbands Death
-Other News of the Courts.


She Knows Abour Her Husbands Death
Other News of the Courts.
The only noteworthy feature in the Davis
murder trial yesterday afternoon was the testi-
mony of Mrs. Caroline Davis in her own behalf.
She said that on the night of January the
sister of the witness came to visit her They
went upstairs about $50 o'clock to Mrs. Davis
bedroom. Her sister left in time to catch the
ll:30 car on the Penn avenue line. Witness did
not go down stairs. Soon after her sister left
witness got into bed. Nicely White came to
bed, and witness fell asleep. She was awakened
by hearing a shot fred. She sprang out of bed,
and that was all she remembered until she
found herself in the police station.
She was subjected to a most rigid cross ex-
animation by District Attorney Porter, but
stuck to the main portion of her story. She
had been married to Albert ]. Davis in 1880 by
Squire Sloan, in Petersburg, Pa She did not
remember having any conversation with Officer
Snyder. She had lived at No. 80 Frankstown
avenue since October. Davis was down stairs
when witness went to bed. Witness did not
hear him come up stairs. After being awak-
ened by the shot she did not see Davis. Did
not remember speaking 70 anyone. Did not
realize anything until she was placed in the
police station. She had not been drinking dur
ing the day or evening. She had been working
at the sewing machine in the evening. Did not
see the revolver that night nor after the shoot
Ing. Captain Mercer told her to tell him all
about the affair, and he would do all he could
for her. She told him that she did not know
anything about 1t. Did not tell him that her
defense would be self-defense. TO get
rid of him she told him to come
back again and she would tell him all. She
did not intend to tell him anything, because
she knew nothing nothing to tell. She did not
decline to make q statement before the Coro-
ner. Thomas NJ. Marshall, ST., made a short
address to the Jury. He laid down the rules of
circumstantial evidence, and said that it was
lust as reasonable to presume that the little
girl, Nicely White, had done the shooting, as
Mrs. Davis. The prosecution, he said, bad not
attempted to prove that Davis had not taken
his own life. He quoted the law on the case,
and claimed that there was nothing in it by
which the jury might be permitted to convict
Mrs. Davis.
Thomas M. Marshall, Jr., followed in
lengthy address in which he maintained that it
was case of suicide, and that the
testimony of the witnesses had proved
that it would have been impossible for his
client to have committed murder. He asked
the jury to bring in verdict of acquittal.
When Mr.. Marshall ended, Judge Collier ad-
journed court until this morning.
While Mr.. Marshall was addressing the Jury
he said something which struck a colored man
named Charles Thompson as being very funny.
Thompson laughed aloud. and was promptly
taken in hand by the tipstaves. After court
adjourned he was given severe reprimand by
Judge Collier, and dismissed.
