BILLS OF LADING ON COTTON.

the New Form.

Action of the New York Exchange on
the New Form.
NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-Some weeks ago
D. Cunningham, chairman Of the liverpool
Cotton Importers Protective Association,
addressed letter TO President Charles
w. Ide of the New York Cot
ton Exchange, explaining the object;
and advantages Of the new form
of through bills Of lading recommended by
the cotton conference held In Liverpool
this summer. President Ide submitted thi:
letter to the board of managers Of the New
York Cotton Exchange yesterday, and
after full consideration the hoard of
managers adopted a resolution expressing
their belief that denominations for exoes.
sive loss in weight and for bales Of inferior
quality are due in large measure tc
the fact that under the old
bill of lading vessels frequently
deliver bales not in accordance with the
bill of lading issued, and cannot be held re-
sponsible for such wrong delivery. The
board Of managers therefore recommended
the general adoption of the new form Of
through bills of lading by cotton exporters

A Jury Refuses to Believe the Testi-
mony of Two Informers.
ATLANTA, GA, Oct 1e-A startling ver-
dict was rendered in the United States dis
trict court late this evening. It was In the
case Of the "Honest Mans Friend and Pro-
tector," gang of moonshine conspirators
from Pickens county. The case has been
occupying the federal courts for
two years, and the details of the
house burning and other outrages
perpetrated by the gang Co intimidate
witnesses and informers in revenue law yio-
lations are familiar. Six members of the
gang were on trial at this term of court
Two turned states evidence and gave away
the detailed workings of the gang. A sam
pie Of the black masks worn by the menu
bers and a most terrible form of oath to
which all subscribed were introduced.
THE STATES WITNESSES.
Patton Willis and George Coffee were the
men who pleaded guilty and turned states
evidence. When the case took this turn,
together with the confession OF james Wig
gintou, the ring leader. In Jail, the attorneys
for the defense gave up all hope. They were
even discussing the grounds upon which
they would appeal Co the supreme court of
the United States after the jury had been
out over an hour. The clerk of the court
had the blank sentences filled out ready TO
receive the verdict, 50 confident was he and
everybody else that the conspirators would
be found guilty. But when the jury
handed in its decision it fell like q thunder
clap. It was an acquittal of all the men on
trial, Thomas Rowland, ID. G. Wheeler,
Montevele Holbert, James Wigginton,

KING TOBE.
His Royal Highness Is Lodged in the
City Prison.

His Royal Highness Is Lodged in the
City Prison.
Tobias Wilson, Esq, is registered at
the city prison. Mr.. Wilson is known
to fame and every officer in the state OF
California as Tobe Wilson, the king OF
the tramps. Tobe is reported to have
arrived here one week ago, but was
only arrested late Saturday night for be-
ing drunk.
Inc t.amping business is not what it
ls cracked up to be- said the king to a
HERALD reporter last night. "The
business has seen its best day. The
king-pins in the profession have started
in the direction of Chicago, and the out
look for the professional tramp is not
very encouraging in the west"
Tobe is standard authority on the
tramp question. He has been in the
business close on to dozen years, dur
ing which time he has seen the inside
OF scores of prisons, and has beaten his
way on hundreds of trains. In fact,
Tobe has constantly travelled from one
end of the United States to the other
without ever having put cent into the
Golfers of railroad monopolies. Tobe
has been arrested in Los Angeles about
twenty times, and is still in the ring.

twenty-five shoeles. p....nrer,.

An amusing contretemps, though an
awkward one for the persons principally
interested, occurred on the Milwaukee
train to Chicago one day recently. 1t
was the regular train leaving st. Paul at
8p. IN. and arriving in Chicago on the
following morning. One sleeping car
leaves st. Paul with the train and goes
clear through to Chicago. Another is
added at La Crosse and dropped off at
Milwaukee.
1t had become habit with the porters
of the two cars to take the shoes to be
cleaned from the forward car to the rear
one, where they would converse while
putting on the necessary polish. On the
particular night referred to both the
porters fell asleep over the shoes, and
when the car was dropped off at Mil
waukee two porters and all the shoes be
longing to people in the forward car
were dropped off too.
The spectacle presented at the Mil.
waulkee depot in Chicago when the train
arrived was, to say the least, an unusual
one. Twenty-Five shoeless. passengers
kicked vigorously for their lost brogans,
and a big crowd had fun with them.
The railway management was equal to
the occasion. A shoe clerk was prompt
ly on the spot; each man, woman and
child was rapidly measured, and in less
time than would seem possible those
passengers were newly shod at the ex.
pense of the Milwaukee Railway com.

ried, but that nothing in the world
would prevent him from marrying Miss
Carhart.
He made serious allegations against
Mrs. Carhart in her treatment Of her
daughter. The young girl was very
much affected, and clung to her lover.
1t was apparent to all that she was
desperately in love with the foreman of
the big Burbank ranch. She said that
she would 60 wherever Mr.. Kieslich
went, and refused to leave him even for
an instant.
Kieslich demanded the right to give
bail, and Jailer Pallet allowed the Bur-
bank officer to take him to Garvanza
where the complaint was issued. The
eloping couple left for Garvanza a little
after o'clock, where Kieslich doubtless
gave bail, as he started out on the Jour
ney we'll supplied with gold.
An attempt was made to get the girl
away from Kieslich, but the scheme did
not work in this city. The supposition
is that there is considerable money in
the case for some one if the marriage is
not contaminated, and sensational de-
velopments can be expected.

LOCKWOOD STILL FREE.
He Seems to Have Found a Good
Hiding Place.

He Seems to Have Found a Good
Hiding Place.
Almost Immediately after the dis
missal of the Lockwood case, in depart
ment one of the superior court, on mo-
tion OF the district attorney, on Satur-
day afternoon last, that official, as a
remedial measure, drew up new COM
plant against the ex-justice of the
peace, charging him with the crime Of
embezzlement, the allegations con-
tanned therein being similar in every re-
spect to those in the original complaint.
This document was filed in the town
ship court, and upon it Justice Stanton
at once issued warrant for Lock wood's
arrest, which was entrusted to the
sheriff for service.
AS the whole transaction only con-
sumed about fifteen minutes, and Lock-
wood had been seen receiving the con-
gratulations of his friends. upon the
street, after his discharge, it seemed i'm
possible that any difficulty would be ex-
perienced in re-arresting him; but to
the surprise Of the sheriff, when he pro-
ceeded to put the warrant into execu-
tion, the shrewd Mr.. Lockwood was not
to be found. Sheriff Gibson himself
took the matter in hand, but although
most diligent search was made, he had
not succeeded in locating him at the hour
OF going to press this morning, and Lock-
wood had disappeared as completely as
though the earth had opened and swal-
lowed him.
1t is evident that Lockwood's fight
was preconcerted by his friends, who,
foreseeing that the district attorney
would dismiss the case and file new
complaint, spirited him away immedi-
ately after the court ordered him dis
charged, thereby exonerating his bonds
men from further obligation. However
this may be, the fact remains that he is
still at large.

Economical Storage.

A funny thing came to the notice of a
New York girl on the occasion of the
recent warm spell Of weather. CROSSING
Seventh avenue she saw a pet young man
OF her acquaintance entering door over
which hung the ominous three gold balls
with his winter overcoat on his arm.
he was walking in a sprightly fashion,
and seemed to be at peace with his
pocketbook and with the world. And
yet-there he was on his way into o
pawnshop. Meeting the young woman
later all was explained.
"You see," he said blithely, ssI board
and have SO little closet room that can't
keep my coat in any kind of shape and
so hang it up"
''Hang it upl"
"Yes; that is l give it to my uncle.
Pawn it, don't you knowl They pay me
about half its value. Perhaps, if I'm
lucky, get twenty dollars for it, may
be little more. They put it away in
camphor for me and next fall 20 after

TWO RIBS BROKEN.

Thrown From a Buggy.

w. G. Kerckhoff and his brother-in-

cape on Saturday afternoon. The gen.
tlemen were out driving in the vicinity
of Boyle Heights, when the horse be-
coming scared at something or other,
ran away, wrecking the vehicle. Mr..
Kerckhoff landed safely, but Mr.. Esh-
man was thrown out violently, and re-
ceived what was at first thought to be
serious injury The wounded gentle-
man was conveyed to Mr.. KerckL off g
residence, on the corner OF Main and
Sixth streets, where upon examination
it was found that couple OF ribs had
been broken. The accident will confine
Mr.. Eshman to his room for couple Of

ANOTHER ROBBERY.
A Sneak Thief's Work at Broadway
Drug Store.

The drug store of J. H. Trout, at the
corner Of Broadway and Sixth street,
was robbed on Saturday night in very
slick manner, and the operators got
away with $40 in the twinkling of an
eye. The supposition is that the rob-
berry was committed about $3.50 o'clock.
Mr.. Trout had just left the store when a
young man engaged J. B. Rising, the
clerk, in conversation in the front part
OF the store. 1t was then that the sneak
thief got in his work. He effected an
entrance through the rear end of the
store and took the money box, which
had been kept in drawer in the rear
end of the shop.
The box and money was discovered to
be missing early yesterday morning.
The thief must have known about the
insecure place in which the money was
kept.
