tracted pneumonia and died, after an ill
ness of day or two. Telegraphic in
quiries sent from this city to-day have re-

to-day. States Attorney Rider made q
statement to the jury that he had but four
more witnesses to examine in addition to
and that it was impossible to get those, as
they had left the county. Many of the
states witnesses testified differently before
the jury from what they had been ex-
pected to. The evidence was so weak that
the case was abandonded and Gordy liber-
ated. The court was in special session for
the trial of this case. Louisa Wales, a
colored woman, was found last June 22d In a
dying condition near Salisbury Wicomico
county. Foul play was suspected and

LONDON, Nov. 25.-Although the restric-
tons have been entirely removed from the
use of the cables for news transmission
from Brazil very few dispatches are being
received. The Indications are that every
thing is resuming normal condition, that
the new government is Ia sympathy with
the dominant political party, and that the
mandates of the constitution will resume
their sway.
The exchange telegraph company pub
fishes private dispatch from Fara to-day.
According to this, the addication OF Fon-
SEGA and his succession by Peioto az presi-
dent is well received in that city and state.
This change in the central government will
probably yrove entirely satisfactory to
the people of Para and there is
no present likelihood that peace will
be disturbed. Previous advioes from Rio
de Janelro have reported that everywhere
the change of president met with approval
and satisfaction. The exchange company's
dispatch therefore proves to be correct All
Brazil is rejoicing that the dictatorship is
at an end.
