Not Chilly.

MANHATTAN, Kan, April 5.-In the
district court here to-day the jury in
the case of the state VS.. Sam Hatton,
charged with the murder of Mrs. Anna
Beal at Riley on January 21st. 1889 re-
turned a verdict of not guilty. The
trial of this case has occupied the
whole week. The regular and two
special venires of jurors was
secured. Hatton was defended
by Sam Kimble, Esq and
Hon. George S. Green who are re-
ceiving congratulations on their work
which in the light of the fact that Hat
ton was poor man without means to
pay for defence seems well merited.
The evidence disclosed such state of
facts as leads all to feel the verdict to
be a just one notwithstanding the hor-
ror of Mrs. Beal s untimely death. No
excitement prevails or threats are made
against defendant. This is the first
murder in Riley county since 1880.

CHICAGO A MILLIONAIRE.

Chicago is illustrating the growth Of Ameri-
can cities in more senses than one. Ii is not
now possible to determine how large part OF
that growth of cities upon which statisuclans
and moralists constantly descant so eloquentiy
has been due TO the absorption OF surrounding
villages and towns. When Newly ork added
part of Westchester County it was not possible
to determine exactly what population was thus
brought into the city, and the estimate that
200, 900 are added TO the population of Chicago
by the annexation of towns just voted may be
quite inaccurate. But when the census of 1890
has been taken and the cities of the United
States are found to have increased in popula-
ton much faster than the rest of the country,
il must be remembered that absorption of
territory accounts for much of the increase
Chicago has never been noted for deadly &C
curacy in its estimates of population. Tho
estimate that 100000 inhabitants are now
within the limits of that city may be disputed
with some appearance Of reason. From 187 0
to 1880 the increase was 2 on 900, or about 6S
per cent and as great a ratio of increase in
succeeding decade, with larger population as
a basis, could hardly be expected But the in
crease at that rate for nine years would
be about 3O8, 900, and the total population, eX-
elusive of the towns now added, 6ll 900, or
with them about 900 900. Hence Chicago
has surpassed its ratio of growth in the preced-

ing decade il its directory makers are approx

The claim that Chicago is now the second
city Of the United States in population needs
confirmation" even If the ratio Of growth dur
ing the last decade has been maintained. For
Philadelphia had 847 900 in 1880, and has UNI
doubtedly added during the past decade more
than as many .,eople were added from 1877
TO 1880, that is about II 10000. This would
bring the population of the city to 1,O2O,oOo
which Chicago with its new addition may
or may not surpass when the official enumera-
tions are taken next year There seems fair
probability, to say the least that Philadelphia
will show gain of 80 per cent or more, which
will make the population about IL 90, 600 nexo
year-the number now claimed by Chicago
The result as between these great cities will
be awaited with unusual interest But there
Is little room to doubt that the annexation puts
Chicago decidedly ahead of Brooklyn, though
the latter city has been growing rapidly since
the completion of the great Bridge. While ID
has probably not reached 100000 as yet, it
would not be surprising to see the population
of Brooklyn approach that number.

RAILROAD MANSLA LIGHTER.

II has been ascertained that the disaster on
the Consolidated road near New-Haven last
Saturday was caused by gross carelessness.
After the passage of an accommodation train
number of old rails were taken up and re-
placed by new ones which had not been
thoroughly secured when the fast express came
in sight. The foreman took the dreadful re-
sponsibility of deciding that rails only half
fastened were capable of withstanding the
enormous pressure of heavy train running at
forty-five miles an hour. The result was a
wreck and the destruction of three lives, one of
them of great and increasing value to the cOun-
try.
The foreman showed bad judgment in taking
I'D more rails than could be properly replaced
in the interval between the passage of one train
and the arrival of another This was an error
affecting the company's estimate OF his value,
which might perhaps have been made the sub
ject of complaint, for the stopping of an ex-
press train running at full speed is an annoy
ance and expense; and it is quite possible that
the foreman took this fact into consideration
when he saw the express approaching. At all
events he was willing to "take the chances"
and so he and his men stood aside while the
train rushed on to destruction. The accident
did not occur near curve, or under any per-
picking conditions. The track was straight
and there was abundant time to comprehend
the danger and to flag the train. 1t is reported
that the foreman will have to stand trial for
criminal negligence. We hope that this re-
mort is not erroneous, and that the trial will
not be farce.
