Not BE ADY.
The CrOnin Defense Expected to
Maneuver for Delay.


CHICAGO, August l0.-lSpecial Telegram
to The BEE. 1T Is very probable that
there will be another attempt TO procure u
continuance of the Cronin murder trial when
the case is called in Judge McConnclPs cour t
next Monday. The defense, it is believed,
Is not yet ready to 20 on w ith the case, and
the probabilities are that when it is called
UP next Monday the lawyers, for the prison
ers will begin anew the work for delay. The
cause of all tins anxiety on the part of the
defense to have the trial postponed lies in
the fact that up to the present time the pros
ecution has refused to show its hand, notwith-
standing the many clever but Intellectual
attempts made to induce it To do so. There
is great uncertainty among the legal lights
employed to fight the prosecution as TO how
far, if at all, Martin Burke has committed
himself or implicated his defendants.
But, perhaps, the man whom they fear most
is Veterinary Surgeon Cass whose testi-
mony looks 50 bad for Daniel Coughlin and
whose record and reliability Attorney For
rest has been so carefully Investigating for
several days past. Mr.. Cass has proved an
enigma to Mr.. Forrest thus far and the lat
ter is very desirOus of pushing his inquiries
in this direction little further.

unless Il family of Americans should estab-

UNREASONABLE FAVORED

The Mining Industry asks, Why should not man advertise mine for sale, just as he would advertise real estate? We answer that no satisfac tory reason can be given why he should not, and that mining prepsr- ties are so seldom negotiated through the medium of the press is not cred itable either to the sagaclty CT fairness of p'ine owners Instances are recalled where persons mere quick than their fellows te appreciate the value of printers ink, have successfully em- ployed the columns of the local naper, or reputable mining publication, to dispose of their mining property rem dering for tho service of the paper quid pro quo, The Mining Industry cites as an illustration the case of the Nova Scotia mine, in Colorado, winch as result of ludicious advertising costing the owners an insignificant sum, was sold for S120,000 Other instances are referred to where like enterprise led to negotiation profta- ble to advertisers.
 Notwithstanding the fact that so few mlne owners appreciate the ser vices rendered by newspapers, yet there is ne industry which receives so much gratuitous advertisIng-repre' senting labor and expense to the paper --as does mlning, The reporter who is very often the editor and pro prietor also, with slender purse-is frequently called upon to visit mlnes at a distance, furnish bis own cayuse, write up the property, enlarging upon its good points and promising features, and avoiding mention of any draw backs 1t may possess, all of which may take up half column CT mere of his paper, and then the owner or superin- tendsnt of the mine very often laJors under the hallucination that he is conferring favor upon the scribe by furnishing him with good copy. Newspapers themselves are, in a great measure, to blame that such a custom has obtained, whereby they are deuIed compensation which they have well earned. No other business receives or expects gratuitous advertising, and there Is no reason why mining should
