clearly outgeneraled, and Corbett prov.

Free-trade has hitherto been held up
to our rsverent regard, on the ground
that in opening our markets without
hindrance to all sorts of foreign compe-
tition we conferred upon the public the
enormous benefit of cheapening the cost
of living. The distrust of this theory,
hinted at by Lord Salisbury, in May
last, would no doubt be accentuated II 1t
turned out that protection in the United
States had brought about such result,
while free-trade in Great Britain had
done the opposite.

A NEW TRLAL GRANTED
In the Now Celebrated ClOuStOn Case
at ParkerSburg.
Special TELEGRAM to he Sunday Reotstsr.

| Special 7sle0rdm to the Sunday Reotstsr.
PARKERsBURG, w. VA, February 20.
When the Clouston case, after long
and exhaustive argument on the part OF
counsel for the State and defense, was
given to the jury last night, there was
! general belief that the jury would not
ren1er verdict before morning and
nearly every one left and went home.
There was an almost universal belief
that a verdict of guilty would be reach
ed, as the case was such that there
seemed not the slightest question OF
guilt, but the jury took almost every
one by surprise by its almost immediate
return with the verdict Of guilty.
In fact they remained out but fifteen
minutes. The verdict gave general
satisfaction throughout the city when
the fact became known. The Counsel
for the defense had exhausted, to all
appearance, all the technicalties and
every resource known to sharp crimi-
nal lawyers to get continuances and to
make the most of the testimony. and
took exceptions upon the most ground
less OF pretext but the evidence brought
ou by the State was of such character
that no resource known to the shrewd
attorneys for the defense could over
come their convicting weight.
As soon as the verdict was rendered
Clouston's attorneys moved to set aside
the verdict, and Judge Foreman oon-
sented to hear the arguments to-day.
As Clouston had been given the ad-
vantage throughout all OF the trials OF
every technicality, there was in this
city this morning peculiarly signih
cant and general opinion that a new
trial would be granted. The grounds
for this general belief, for it was gen.
eral, seem to have been sort OF fore
knowledge of coming events, which cast
their shadows before.
The public was correct. Mr.. Hutch
| inson, chief counsel for Clouston, claim
ed that the verdict Of the jury "a more
than usually intelligent jury was con-
| trary to the law and evidence, and con-
trary to the instructions of the Court.
The argument continued until noon,
when Judge Foreman sustained the mo-
ton and granted a new trial.
The State announced itself ready to
continue the trials, one Of which will
come up for consideration Monday.
The article published in the IntelH-
gencer is pure fabrication. There was
no politics in the case, as an evidence OF
which it is sufficient to say that the
Jury was composed of eleven Republi-
cans and one Democrat.
Only one ballot was taken in the jury
room, and every juror voted the same
way. This verdict is more remarkable
in view of the instructions given by the
court, which were clearly and unques-
tionabIy in favor of the defendant.
There is not now, nor has there ever
been, any politics in the prosecution OF
| these cases.
The indictments were returned by a
grand jury, the foreman and majority
of whom were Republicans, on what
seemed to them abundant prof OF
wrong doing, and now petit jury OF
the same political party, as the defend
ant, has endorsed that finding by re-
turning a verdict of guilty.
