The Flaher.y Nluroer Trial.

starved or the building should foil upon
them rather than vote for hanging. At

the prisoner heard the verdict he gave
no sign OF concern. There is much dis
appointment as TO the verdict. Every
body believed 1t would be for hanging.
Such o verdict would have given entire
satisfaction and would certainly have
been jastifiable. 1t is mob likely that
another trial will be asked for. Mr..
Melville is not at oil anxious to retry the
case, remarking to a correspondent
this morning that ''next time the cuss
would hang, sure."

No Eamine IN Corna

WASHINGTON, April 1s.-rDr. Allen,
the American secretary of the Corean
legation, stated to your correspondent
that the reports printed of the famine.
which is alleged to be devastating Corea
are exaggerated and untrue. He re-
ceived q letter from an American friend
in Corea from which he read that while
the crop of rice in southern Corea had
been short this year the shortage had
been forseen by the government and
that ample supplies had been stored UP
by the king both at public and private
expense, and that all needy persons
would be fully taken care Of. The next
crop will be gathered this summer and
will be an abundant one. There had
been no deaths from famine, he said,
and the principal distress among the
people arose from the merciless ex-
tortlon Of the government tax g~atherars.

The yestihnIe patent.

CHICAGO, April 1s.-Judge Gresham
delivered an opinion, Judge Blodgett
concurring, declaring the Pullman-Ses-
sions patent for vestibule cars valid, and
that the Wagner Palace Car company
was infringing it. The Sessions patent
covers that portion of each half Of the
v%estibule, consisting of the face plates
under spring pressure, completing the
vestibule by a tight joint when the cars
are coupled in train service. The court
therefore made the temporary i%njunc-
ton against the Wagner company per-
petual, and referred the matter to the
master in %chancery. A dispatch from
New York says the representatives of
the Wagner company claim they can
dispense with the Sessions portion of
the vestibule and still use it.

LONDON, April 1s.-There is intense
irritation throughout the beer trade
over the proposal of Mr.. Goschen to in
crease the tax on malt liquors. The
brewers have already held a meeting to
discuss the matter, and have informed
Nh. Goschan that u deputation repre-
senting them will wait upon him on
April 30 to protest against his method
OF imposing what is apparently to be a
permanent tax upon their product. Mr..
Goschen is reminded by these gentle
men that Mr.. Gladstone once attempted
to raise the tax on beer, and lost the
premiership in consequence. The retail
dealers have already added half-penny
per pound to the price of sugar.

A .Rumor without Foundation.

Ell PAso, Tex, April 1s.-No earthly
Importance ought to be attached to an
alleged agitation to form q new state
out OF southern Arizona and a portion
OF western Texas. 1t has been stated
that there is such an agitation on foot
and that the headquarters of the move
ments are in Ell Paso. The fact is that
nobody in Eel Paso and scarcely anybody
in Arizona know anything about it. 1t
is well known that the state of Texas
will under no circumstances give up any
portion of its territory, nor would the
people of Arizona be favorably inn
pressed with the idea. The idea origi-
mated with the editors of a few country
papers in southern New Mexico. but
does not deserve any serious considera-
ton. There is absolutely nothing in it,
and the people of Ell Paso are greatly
annoyed that their city should be men
toned in such a connection.
