The New York Standard of wednss-
day weak, printed e letter from Capt. John
Goldman, who from experience a. sea
and through study on lsnd Is in such
uatte,u one Of the best posted N en- in the
world, whioh ought to set OF rest the
delusion that Great Britain subsidies her
merchant marine. Captain Goldman says,
emphaticblly, that England does not
encourage her merchant marine with sub
sidy bounty bonus or anything Of the
kind, directly or indirectly" She pays
few stesmers for carrying the mails,
either in round sums or postages, but tEis
is not tax upon her people, as subsidy
would be upon ours, because she actually
receives more in hostages than she pays
out. And the fact is that not more than
two per cent OF the British atesn tset
derives any emolument from hostages.
mo one pretends to say" adds Captain
Goldman, that her sGssst Brisain'sJ sail.
ing vessels receive any subsidy or bounty.
They outnumbsr her stesmers, and their
days are seen in every part OF the globe.
Moreover, many Of them are owned and
commanded by Americans, who are
obliged to sail under tbs British flag be.
cause our government will not allow
them to hoist their own flag on thsir own
property" Tbs captain further elbows,
what requires hardly any argument tc
make self-eyident, that an extensive prac
tice OF subsidy would be az Injury rathei
than benefit TO q merehAn. marine. "It
for instance, one-ha!f Of the British steam
feet was subsidized, the other half Wouit
be at q great disadvantage on toe SAINT
routes. But in this case ihs proportion
necessarily receiving government pay fol
carrying the mails, and for no ether pur
pose whatever, is 50 ANAL that it does no
interfere WITH the independent cuisines

wLHEsBABEE, Jan. I3.-Mrs. MoDer.
mott, . victim OF la grippe, became de.
lrious on Sunday night and escaped
from the house. Half Glad, she ran to
the bridge crossing the SusquehSans
river, followed by her little 12-years.oid
daughter. The woman made desperG.O
effort to throw herself over the railing
into the river, but was held back by the
daught.T, who cried for help. Two
policeman arrived in time to save the
woman from suicides grave. The little
girl, in her eforta to save her mother,
tore the clothes of the latter, and sae
exposure will probably cause Mrs. Mcpsr-
motifs death.

nent lawyers, however, look upon the
matter in different light, and say that
che action Of the prosecutor indicAtes
that he could not give additional evil
deuce Rgainst the prisoners without ex-
posing his line OF action against them
and giving their counsel additional ad-
vantage IL building up defence.
The courtroom was full again this
morning. Mr.. Cornelius Shepherd, the
first physician who entered the house on
the morning the murder WAS discovered,
was the hrst witness. lie said he found
Mrs. Kniden'a body lying on the bod,
cold aud stiff, with the arms uncovered.
Her lips we're swollen and purple, sure
sign OF danger where chlOrofOrm has
been administered. He could detect no
odor OF chloroform or ether IL the room,
but that WAS not important, as after .
time the odor OF these drugs would die
out. lie found Miss Purcell in the next
room, clad in her night dress and o
shawl. Her pllse sud general condition
we're normal.
Wilson Raymond, Dr.. Knifsn's otli1e
boy, told practically the same story as
the other witnesses about the condition
OF tho house on the morning u the dis
cc7ery Of the murder.
Undertaken AshMore snd Lswis u Ny

EdSard WIlkps, DFugeist Pattersun's
boy, testified that Dr.. Rotten bought
aConite OF them a few days before the
murder. On tue morning Of the murder
be saw footprints in the frost on the rooi
OF the shed.
After the next witness, William D. Van

Az will be seen in our local columns,
ana In conformity with the announce
msut in Tuesdays EyEEY EyEsiSo, the
superior court in the opinion on the
usndAmus petition Of John W. Hawkins
antics in refusing to grant the rule asked
,or, at the same time conveying warn
ina to the tax collectors that they
would be wise to SO administer tho public
trust conhded to them as to give warrant
for no reasonable cause Of complaint, or
Of least no such cause as the court can
properly take cognizancs OF. The opinion
is admirably comprehensive without
being difiuse. II is short enough
for every one to read and digest
comfortably, and yet lengthy enough
to leave no vital portion of the
subjsct.mAtter untouched. 1t does not
deny the extension OF the power Of sttor-
ney to the payment of taxes By proxy;
nay more, 1t Gdmonishes the collectors
that they are bound by their e.acisl obli-
cation to receive suoh taxes when ten
dsred By holders Of bonA ade powers Of
attorney; bat it recognizes the right Of
the collectors to exercise discretionary
power in judging Of such good faith lad
eenuineness, and in electiug to hand the
receipts for such payment to the taxable
in person, and declining % hand the
same TO his agent. The opinion also
makes clear that, under tie constitution,
the possession Of @ tax rsosips, though .
great convenience, is not q neces-
sary ingredient Of the qualifications
of a voter; such necessary ingredient
being discharged by the pRlasat o. the
tax, fact which may be established to
the satisfaction Of the election ofRcc;s BY
the oath or affirmation Of the taxable
himself. And the court gives notice that,
while II has not the power to conpe! the
collectors to accept taxes rendered by
attorney and to issue receipts therefor,
yet It hss the power and the will to re.
quire collectors to give such ta1ables as
present themselves in person fair show
and that it proposes to continue in ses
sion long enough to see thst this is done

What care you when We

whether our stock Is too biz
or too small, or for any one

would be scant courtesy to
your intelligence to parade
such motives for any business

simply say from day TO day as
we seriate our stock into new

to create prices that will move
