SEEKING SEPARATE TRIALS.
Indicted Cronin Suspects at Chicago File Ad-
ditiOnal Petitions in Court.

CHICAGO. Aug. 2.-The lawyers who are
defending the Cronin suspects are making
herculean efforts to obtain separate trials
for their clients. The motion for a change
of venue in behalf of Patrick O'Sullivan
was argued before Judge Horton to-day by
the States attorney and attorney
David. The States attorney main
tanned that the petition was not
prepared in statutory form. Mr.. David said
the petition was in the form used in the
Criminal Court records, and that the court
must take judicial knowledge of the fact
that the case actually was pending before
him. Mr.. A. w. Browne, who appeared for
Woodruff, then startled the States at
torney and the court by contending that
If a change of venue be granted to O'Sulli-
van il did not apply to the other defendants,
but left them for trial before Judge Hor-
ton. He said that his client had neither
asked for nor consented to change Of
to only one change of venue, and If against
il would debar him from exercising that
right before any other judge.
Mr.. Longenecker wanted time to answer
these points, and the judge took the case
under advisement until Monday, when the
States attorney may argue further. A de-
cision upon motions to quasb the indict-
ments of Woodruff. Beggs, Kunze and
Coughlin was also deferred to Monday.
Judge Horton has received letter from
KunZe asking him to appoint an attorney
for his defense. He has not yet done so.

RUSsIA'S CEREAL TRADE.

An Abnormal Increase in the Past Two
Years-America's Most Formidable Rival.
WASHINGTON Aug. 2.-The State Depart
ment lie in receipt of an exhaustive report
upon Russia's agricultural and cereal trade
from Chalton II. Way, United States con-
sul-general to st. Petersburg. He says the
exports of cereals from Russia in the past
two years show an abnormal increase, due to
three causes-frst, the enormous crops
gathered from both the Black lands and
the arabic prairies; second, the depreciation
of the paper ruble, and third, the foolish
practice of systems of corners" in the
United States. The arabic lands of Russia
in Europe Mr.. Way says. excluding Po-
land, cover an area of $4,000 square miles.
The wheat-grower of Kansas and Dakota
will see at glance the area of taat
fertile territory which. with the cheap
a formidable rival; and the merchants of
Chicago and New York who imagine by
cornering wheat. that they will control the
markets of the world, can always take into
their calculations the product of this conn
try as an effectual check TO their opera
tions. Every corner" engineered in the
United States makes an opportunity for
Russia. Not one dollar is added to the inn
port of wealth in America. But exports
from our country being estopped. Russia
steps in and gets rid of her surplus at re-
munerative prices, but still far below the
pr0hibitive values established in Chicago
and New York. He adds: LAS long as Rus
sian wheat exists, any attempt to force the
Western nations of Europe to pay artificial
prices for American grain can but result in
known. corners would become rare and

A LAW THAT OFFERS BRIBES.
The Democratic Railroad Bulletin Law and
Complaints Made Under 1t.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
GREENCAsTLE, Aug. 2-The complaints
recently fled against the railroads of this
county are both amusing and instructive.
The suits are brought separately against
each road, and the complaint in each case
covers between 200 and 500 pages of closely
printed matter. This would seem to indi-
cate that the papers are furnished
from headquarters. The spaces for
the name of each railway COM
pany, station. number of paragraph,
ETC.. were left blank. The law provides a
penalty of $25 for each violation. one-half
of which goes to the prosecuting attorney
and the remaining half to the school fund.
1t will thus be seen that the law aims to
bribe both the jury and prosecuting attor-
neys. Each of the companies operating
the railway lines in this county complied
with the law as soon after its taking effect
as the necessary bulletin boards could be
manufactured and erected. There was no
attempt or purpose on their part to evade
the law, and the courts will decide
that no liability can attach to
them in view OF that very necessary

as q legislative dead head, and, though en-

lation alleged. These facts are undeniable,
and they show tho animus of the late
lamented Legislature.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
LONDON. Aug. "A wall of distress comes
to-day from the Christian population in Al
bania. whose echoes will soon be heard in
the British Parliament. For years the
Christians IN that country have suf-
fered the most revolving cruelties at the
hands of their Turkish masters. When, re-
Gently, these became unbearable, the op-
pressed people sent committee to the
Turkish Governor at Scutari praying for
relief. Every member of this committee.
which consisted of the most prominent
members of the Christian community.
was promptly put in Jail by the
Governor. and they are there yet.
Then the aggrieved people put their case in
the hands of an eminent lawyer. who un-
dertook to lay the facts before the govern
ment at Constantinople. This lawyer,
Achmet Ali Bey. a Turk and Mohamme-
dan, when ON the point of starting on his
mission. was arrested by order of the Gov
ernor. and has not been released. Not con-
tent with this, shop-keepers and inn-keep-
ers who supplied food and drink to the un-
fortunate committees who, from time to
time, came to seek justice. are also impris-
oned, while the Christians themselves are
invariably so treated.
The chief cause of complaint on the part
of the Christians is that the police authori-
ties, in large number of towns where they
reside. are in league with thieves and rob-
bers, who make business of plundering
them alone. More than this. they charge
that the police themselves organize the
bands of robbers and cut-throats, and direct
their operations, taking themselves the
lions share of the booty. No of
fense against o Christian receives any
attention, and when the unfortunate
people attempt to defend their persons or
their property, they are at once impris-
oned. One of these protected robbers, re-
Gently, kidnapped. two children, aged eight
and ten, sons OF wealthy Christian of
Tiraub. and now holds them for a ransom of
$4,000 piasters. threatening to kill both If
the money is not forthcoming. The matter
has been brought to the attention of in
fuential members of Parliament; and the
attention of the government will be called
to it in the House at an early day.

DEMANDS OF THE WEST.

It Wants Recognition the Internationally
way Commission, and May Get 1t.
Special to the INDIANAPOLIS Journal
WASHINGTON, Aug. AT the time that
the lnterstate-commerce Commission was
first appointed there was a great deal of
adverse criticism from Western people be-
cause it was charged that the immense
region of country west of the Mississippi
river, with its vast railroad systems. had
been ignored. 1t was asserted that the
West was more interested in the personnel
of the commission than any other section
of the country. and, as an additional reason
for growing, it was pointed out that. the
great subsidized railroads, in which the
government is more interested than il is in
any other railroad system. all lie west of
the sections which furnished all the ma
terial from which the commission was
made mp. Ever since the resignation of
Mr.. Walker from the board there has been
pressure brought to bear from all sections
of the country on behalf of
this or that candidate to fill the
vacancy. New England has seemed
to think that she has the first right to the
place because Mr.. Walker came from that
region, and the New England men have
even gone so far as to assert positively that
the place will be assigned to some one with
Puritan blood in his veins.
In the meantime, however, the Western
Senators have neglected no opportunity to
press their claims upon the President and
Senators Manderson and Paddock have
been particularly impressive in this respect.
The latter gentleman arrived in the city
to-day. and lost no time In calling upon the
President. He had quite an extended con-
versati0n with the chief magistrate, one of
the results of which was that he immediate

to come TO Washington at once. as the
President desires to see him. The Senator
declined to say what the reason is for sum-
moning Judge Croft to Washington.
but inasmuch as he is the man
upon the attention of the President
for the vacant place on the board by the
Nebraska Senators, and IN view of the fur,
ther fact that the President has expressed
his desire to fill this place as soon as posi-
BILE, it is thought that Judge Croft is the
coming man, and that he VIII be appointed
before the President starts for his Eastern
trip. If Judge Croft starts for Washington
upon the receipt of Senator Paddock's tele-
gram, he will be able to reach this city by
Sunday evening, in time to see the Presi-
dent before he goes away. Those who
know him best say that he has all the quail
ifications for the place, and that his APP
pOintment would afford general satisfaction
to the entire West

MRS. MAVERICKS TRIAL.
Popular Feeling Turning in Favor of the Al

Popular Feeling Turning i'm Favor Of the Al
legged Murderess-Yesterday's Testimony.
LONDON, Aug. 2.-Interest in the sensa-
sational murder trial now going on in Live
erpool grows daily, and the newspapers
here print many columns of the evidence,
morning and evening. When Mrs. May
brick was first arrested and the damaging
disclosures made of her relations with Mr..
Alfred Briefly, popular feeling was all
against her, and little doubt was expressed
in any quarter of her guilt or of her ulti-
mate conviction on the charge of poisoning
her husband. Sir Charles RusselPs admir-
able preparation of her case has, however,
completely revolutionized public sentiment,
and if his work produces upon the jury
anything like the impression it has already
made upon the public, Mrs. Maybrick's
conviction is out of the question. 1t is gem
orally believed that she will be acquitted,
or at the worst the jury will fail to agree.
AT the trial to-day medical experts testi-
hed that they believed the death of Mr.. May
brick had resulted from the use of arsenic.
The physician who made the post-mOrtem
examination testified that death was caused
by an irritant poison. but not necessarily
by arsenic. An analysist testified that he
had examined Mrs. Maybricks clothing
and had found traces of arsenic in pocket
of her dressing gown. upon one of her
handkerchiefs and also upon an apron that
she had worn.

GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.

A Mighty Sea Serpent Comes to an Untime-
ly End in the Gulf of Mexico.
PANAMA, July 25.-Capt. VIM. +. Smith,
of the bark Nautilus, reports that when off
Cape Berkeley, Galapago islands, the sea
serpent was seen about thirty yards from
the vessel. Captain Smith estimated the
selpents length at eighty feet. and he was
about as large around as o barrel
in the thickest part. The
head was shaped like a snakes.
only on the ex treme end of the upper jaw
there was ridge OF bunch. The head was
about three feet in length. and about two
feet back of the head was n name of hair.
No fins were seen. The tail was long and
tapering, and shaped like that of an
eel. We all had a good view of him
while he was slowly coming towards
the ship. The captain and mate
loaded two bomb guns and banged away at
him, and for about fifteen minutes there
was quite circus, the serpent lashing the
water with his tail and running his head
out four or five feet. At last he ran out his
head, whisked around and sank dead.
Both bombs hit him. When he went down
lie was not more than twenty feet from the
ship: and so. of course. we had a good look
at him.

THE SUGAR SENSATION.
Denial of the Alleged Scheme to Defraud the
United States Government.

NEW YORK. Aug. 2.-The cablegram from
London published yesterday in a morning
newspaper announcing that the Magde-
burg sugar ring had collapsed, that its
suspension had exposed a monstrous scheme
and that the American Sugar Trust was
mixed up in the scheme, was not generally
believed by sugar men. either those inter
ested in or opposed to the trust.
There is not a word of truth in that
cablegram." said Mt. John +. Searles, jr.,
treasurer of the Sugar Trust. "We have
had no dealings with the Magdeburg sugar
syndicate, but we have bought best sugars
in German markets. Our aim has been to
keep prices down as far as possible. That
is. not through motives of philanthropy,
but purely for our own benefit. for our sales
are so large that we can make money on a
small margin of profit. Our margin is
smaller this year thar it was last, when the
price was &c lower"
From a number of government officials
and Others interested in sugar it was
learned that raw sugar OF high grade can
be manipulated SO as to escape the import
due from its grade. One method, formerly
much used, was 10 pour boiled molasses into
the hogshead, and another was to mix diff
ferent grades together, thus darkening the
color. increasing its moisture and lowering
it's grade. Still simpler way. according to
an expert. is to dampen the sugar This
lowers the grade, darkens ii, and does not
destroy its saccharine matter.
II know of one sugar house." said an ex-
pert. (which for long time succeeded IN
deceiying the samplers by very simple de-
vice. While he was not looking. wet sugar
was put into the sample tins, and when the
test was made. OF course. the grade and the
duty were both lowered. In the appraisers
stores all sugars to be judged by the color
must be under $50, Dutch standard, and
must be. tested by the polariscope. The

latter being practically pure. If the sam
pie be $50 Dutch or over. no test is made,
the duty from I3o tn 16o being ga cents a
pound, and from 16o TO 300 cents pound.
Sugar above 20o is of the highest grade"
