mrs. HAMILToN,s REPLY.
An Answer TO Her Husbands Sutf
for Annulnrent OF Marriage.


for Annulnient OF Marriage.
Special from the Press Bureau.
NEW YoRK, Deo. 27.-Evangeline i.
Hamilton, who is now in Trenton prison,
serving sentence for murderous assault
on Nurse Donnelly, has put in her answer
to Robert Ray Hamilton's suit for an an
nulment of his marriage to her. Charles
W. Fuller, her counsel, has filed the
answer in the county clerks Office.
In short document, Mrs. Hamilton
puts In general denial to MIR. Hamil-
toms charges in the complaint that the
marriage was brought about by false
representations on the defendants part
and by conspiracy between Mother
Swinton and Joshua Mann to palm off the
Hamilton $l0-bsby as his child and hers.
She asserts that Hamilton never told her
of his intention to have their marriage
sunulled and denies that Bhs was ever
welded prior to her union to Hamilton.
She asserts further that she and Hamilton
have lived together Rs man and wife in
various places up to Jups 1st last, and
that Hamilton recognized her as his wife
| and caused her to be 90 treated In public.
Concerning the alleged fraudulent mar
| riage, she asserts;
"Ths ceremony, performed on January
| 7th, 1889, was performed at the solicitA-
/; tion and earnest rsqusHs OF ths plaintiff.
as the proper oulminasion of the relations
l heretofore subsisiin2 between thenn."

The average character of the euppiy
has not been what it should. Although
the packing season has bsen closed less
than three months, there is g pronounced
demand for fine goods. The lack OF
high grade goods Is probably due TO tho
large quantity of country packed goods
put up by inexperienced Gamers. The
result Of this is that difference exists
ia Quotations between standards And
extra hand packed goois OF from IS to
40 cents per dozen. Suoh disparity
should put premium upon the packing
of superior grades, and induce Gamers to
make special efforts and inoar extra ex-
pense to establish market and reputa.
ton for their brands.
The west and southwest together can
now, in fair season, be safely counted
upon to furnish one-thrd of the total
supply. 1t seems to be the rule that il
we have bad season in one section OF
the country it will be good in another, 80
that the shortage in one direction Is com
pensated for bya large supply from other
directions.
Tomatoes during the past year have
been sold In this market from 10 cents to
81 15 per dozen. Throughout the season
fine goods have bsen in demand at full
tigurea. In fact, we might say that ct no
time has the supply Of really choice TO-
matces been equsl to requirements. This
emphasizea the position taken by the
american Grocer in January last when it
called attention to the very light stock Of
high grade canned goods, taking the
position that the solution for overpro
duction waB for Gamers to pay more
attention 10 quality and less to quantity;
that their aim should be to improve the
quality of their output, because the cost
Of extra goods was 30 much above the
price OF standards that more money was
70 be made on small output at high
prices than on large output sold at
about the cost Of production, and often
times fos less.
For those packers who aim to put up
goods above the average standard Of
quality, va believe that the future is full
Of promise. The year CLOSES upon q
market scantily supplied with choice
tomatoes aud peas, and only fairly
stocked with high grade corn.

THE SILVER BILL.

The conference silver bill provides
Tor tho purchase OF 4, 50O, 900 ounces OF
silver per month at the market price,
provided that amount is offered and
the price does not exceed 81 for 37lL
grains Of pure silver, payment to he
made in Treasury notes which shall
be legal tender for all debts, both
public and private, and redeemable in
coin either gold or silver at the option
of the Secretary OF the Treasury.
The Secretary Of the Treasury shall
coin each month into standard silver
dollars 100000 ounces Of bullion
until July l, 1891, after which it is
discretionary with that officer how
much shall be coined.
Tho objection TO this law is that it
treats silver rs a mere commodity, and
while its effect will be to put in circu-
lation large amount of legal tender
certificates redeemable in coin, it does
not undo tho great wrong OF 1873.
The Silver State says:
"Ihere never was a compromises
effected that was just to all concerned
and the conference silver bill is no
exception to the rule. In the nature
OF things this act cannot remain long
on the statute books, and Secretary
Window is reported as saying that
the next House Of Representatives,
which he believes will be controlled
by the Democrats, will repeal it and
pass FREQ coinage bill.
If Congress will now supplement-
this ACT by another retiring the Ma
tional Bank currency as soon rs the
charters of the banks now in existence
expire, and refusing TO renew them
or to grant charters to any new Ma
tional Banks, it will do favor to the
people OF the United States in pro-
viding "a reliable paper currency
based on coin, without granting
special privileges to wealthy corpora
tions, which is u principal feature Of
the National Bank system; system
which has enabled wealthy corpora
tions to make millions OF money
through Government favoritism.

COMPLAINT DISMISSED.

Decision Of the Inter-State Commission In
the Cattle Reshiiment Case Favorable to-
the Chicago = Alton.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The Inter.
State Commerce Commission yesterday,
in an opinion by Chairman Cooley. rem
dered its decision in the case of the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad
Company against the Chicago & Alton
Railroad Company, dismissing the COM
plant.
The case was a controversy between
the two railroad companies. involving
the right of the Rock Island Company
/ to be protected in its method of shipping
cattle from points west of Kansas City
billed through to Chicago and of allowing
them To be held over at Kansas City for an
indefinite time to try the market there,
and then if it reshipped either the same
cattle or others substituted in their
places at the through rate originally
agreed upon, that the Alton Company
should have no right to take the rcship-
ment from Kansas City to Chi
cago at the propOrtionate rate of
the original through rate. On this.
point the Commission held as follows:
Where property is to be transported by
rail by continuous and uninterrupted
carriage from one station to another,
there may be sound and legal reasons
for making charge for the through
transportation which is less than tho
sum of the locals for the transportation
OF like property from point to point
between such stations. But where prop
erty is billed from one station TO an
other with the understanding that it is
to be unloaded at an intermediate sta
ton. and that whether it shall be re-
loaded for further carriage will de-
pend upon the option Of the shipper
or of any one who may have become
purchaser, the case does not fall
within the rules governing rates on
through transportation and the carrier
is not at such intermediate points en-
titled to have the carriage protected as
through shipment as against compet-
itOrS'
