more detail the statements about his
wife's habits. He said she was bad
woman, possessing an unusually violent
temper. She often struck him and he
did not dare to strike back He claimed
that he had never mingled much in the
society of women before meeting her, and
that she led him astray.
Fourgous denied that he left Lamet's

Fourgous hesitated a moment, running
his fingers nervously through his curly
hair, and then proceeded. When he at
tempted to return to the house again he
met his wife at the door She had his pistol
in her hand and pointed it at him.
At this point of Fourgous' recital he

Iourgous clasped his hands above his

TO talk wildly in French. The interpreter
could not follow him, and so the jury lost
much of what he said.
Fourgous appeared to be considerably
exhausted when he had concluded his
narration. 1t was then noon, and Judge

The resignation of Oil Inspector
Nichols has brought things to focus as
far as oil inspection is concerned under
the law as it now stands. and for the
next two years it seems highly probable
that there will be no inspection. The
Republicans in the late legislature were
so intent on saving a salared Office
for one of their party that
they permitted nothing to be DONE The
March bill, which passed the senate,
would have covered the ground and not
proved burdensome to the people, who,
after all, of course, pay the cost of the
oil Inspectors department. This bill
placed the duty Of inspecting oils in the
charge OF the dairy commissioner. I'm
fortunately it failed TO pass the house,
and ever since the adjournment or the
legislature the governor has been en-
deavoring to persuade the oil companies
to renew their old agreement by the
terms of which they paid the salaries of
Mr.. Nichols and his deputy and used
the stencils as they pleased. The
Standard was ready to pay fees, but the
other companies were not, and so the
whole scheme fell through.

Nichols position" said Gov. Merriam
yesterday afternoon although | fancy
it will be no easy task, for he will have
to wait for his compensation until the
next session of the legislature when

Nichols resigned simply because there
was no certainty Of his receiving any
salary. Under the decision of Judge
Young the amount to be paid by the
oil companies in the way of fees is so
small that man cannot afford to per-

He Is IncorrigibIe.

The lad Dan Murphy. who recently
beat his way from San Francisco, and
last Tuesday was discharged from the
municipal court, where he had been
brought by Agent Hutchins on charge
of street begging, was again arrested
yesterday. He went into the CONNER
cial state bank about in the afternoon,
walked UP to Hermann Scheffer, the
cashier, and told him pitiful story of
how he had just arrived in st. Paul
from the West, and was destitute and
wished to 90 to Chicago. An officer of
the Humane society was in the bank,
and questioned the boy, who then told
series of bare-faced lies, stating that he
had applied to the Humane society and
been refused relief. The officer of the
society took him to Mr.. Hutchins. who
at once recognized him as the lad he
had charged with begging last Tuesday.
He was sent to police headquarters, and
will be brought up i'll court this morn
ing Oh a charge of vagrancy. He will
no doubt be sent to the reform school.
