stood. 1t is too early to say what effect
the Mckinley bill will have there. The
major part of this seasons production
will have got to market under the old
tariff. The effect of the passage Of
the Mckinley bill has been to hurry
forward shipments Of barley at Bell.
cville, Ont, of which the elevators
and warehouses have been cleared. Full.
ly half the crop, which is light one,
has already been moved. A very large
export of peas and apples has been made.
All the eggs in store have also been
shipped. The prospective effect of the
measure will be to stop the export
OF barley and peas unless the United
States prices advance to such an extent
that about present prices can be paid.
The export of eggs will al.
so be stopped. The fact that the Nc.

lowering the price of barley, at Sarnia,
Ont A high price was paid for several
days by those buying for shipment to
the United States before the bill camo

defending o man accused OF murder at
Clonnel. The circumstantial evidence
was so strong against the prisoner that
tho Jury had already determined upon
their verdict of guilty, when the man
supposed to be murdered was brought
into court, alive and unhurt. The jury
was desired to return their verdict at
once. and they did so; but 1t was one Of
"Guilty." "What does this mean?" in
quired the Judge; 'if the man has not
been murdered how can the prisoner
be guilty?" "Please, yer honor" said
the foreman, "he's guilty; he stole my
bay mare three years ago."

from the piles Of papers in the lawyers

to be hotly contested, he asked: "What

the Express crew from Sandusky to Co.

robbers, knowing that it was pay day,

impression that they would secure big

the night express does not carry heavy

took the money from the safe, but they
took the watch and chain and S75 from
the messenger, his last months salary.
The robbers kept close watch on the
messenger until the train reached Belle

and disappeared. Scudder had in tho
meantime succeeded in working his right

Two men were arrested early during tho
forenoon on suspicion of being implicat-
ed In the robbery. Baggagemaster Nc

MOTHERS HEROISM.

Gave up Her Life for Her Endangered
Children.
One of the most terrible accidents
ever known in Dubuque, Ia, occurred
Sunday morning at o'clock. The resi-
donce OF Ex-policeman John McBee was
discovered on fire. A neighbor ran
across and tried to arouse the family.
While knocking at the door the window
in the upper story crashed and Mcl'ee
fell to the ground. For few moments
he was senseless. When he recovered
he began crying that his family were up
stairs. The flames were quickly extin-
quished and the fireman entered at the
top of the landing. The mother
and three children were found and
quickly removed. Mrs McBee
and the Oldest daughter, Rose,
aged is years, were dead. The young.
est daughter, Bertha, aged 10 years, and
Charles, 5 years old, were still alive.
The boy died in the afternoon. Tho
girl is still alive but can not recover.
Nc Bee is too dazed to give connected
account 1t is gathered that he awolie
nearly sufTocated and aroused his wife.
They CROPPED in the smoke and darkness
until McBee struck the window, through
which he leaped or fell. The mother
was with him, but remembering her
children, went back to save them. When
found the family were in group with
their arms around each others necks.
The building is a small two-story frame.
The bodies were very slightly burned.

Will Obey the Laws.
At the General Conference of the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints Monday morning the official dec
laration of President w. Woodruff, for
bidding in the future any law in viola
tion of the laws of the land, was read,
and the congregation, numbering near
ly 10000 persons, including the Apostles,
Bishops and leading elders of the
church, by unanimous vote recognized
the authority of the President to issue
the manifesto, and accepted it as au-
thoritative and binding. George Q.
Cannon publicly announced his endorse
ment of the manifesto and his recog-
milton OF the supremacy Of laws that
had been declared constitutional by the
Supreme Court of the United States.
The Conference also readopted the orig.
inal articles of faith, among which is
this: I'VE believe in being subject to
Kings, Presidents, Rulers and Magis-
trates, in obeying honoring and sus-
tanning the law" The action taken
settles the vexed question and places
an etfectual bar against future polyga-
nous marriages in Utah. 1t is the most
important step taken by the Church for
more than a quarter of a century.
