The trial of the suit against the PRovI-
DENCE Telegram Publishing Co, brought
by Mrs. Frank Bowers for 5000. was
continued in the Supreme Court before
Judge Wilbur.
rhe greater part Of the morning was
taken up with the introduction of ex-
pert medical testimony calculated to

tioual hysteria.

titled to her condition before and after
the accident corroborating testimony al

This closed the case for the plaintiff,
and Mr. Wilson, the Tctcgrdm'S counsel,

the ground thai the plaintiff had not
proven with sufficient strength the main
point claimed by them-that the bulletin
board was insecurelv fastened by reason
OF the negligence OF tue defendant TO

NEW BEDFORD, Nov. 12.-The ii. V.
Davis Chemical Works of this city, en-
ploving Is men in the manufacture of
potassium cyanide, is the largest concern
of the kind in the country and up TO
within ten years, the sole manufacturing
plant. About half dozen factories are
now running. So prosperous has been
the business that the Davis Company con-
templated erecting new building and
apparatus which would increase its facili-
ties by half. But since the Democrats
have been declared the victors, and there
fore the custodians of the revenue laws
for the next four years, the company has
hesitated about carrying out its plan.
The company uses as raw material pot
ash and horn and leather chips, the latter
the refuse from comb makers and shoe
shops, all of which are purchased in
America. The cost of manufacture is
almost entirely in labor. The first pro
duct is prussiate, which in turn is con-
verted into the cyanide of commerce. The
prussiate actually costs 10 make IL 81

nearly entirely labor--far lower than the

So, if this prussiate is admitted free 1t
will at once kill the American industry.
There is on the finished product, cyan
ide, an ad valorem tax of 20 per cent, and
a reduction of this would be fatal to the
American manufacturers.
Viewing these facts as the Democrats
would desire, the natural inference would
be that free admission of the two COM
modities would reduc, the cost to the
consumer. The American manufacture
ers claim this Is not so.
They state that propositions have been
made by agents of European houses to
combine aud raise the price of cyanide
so cents per pound. These offers were
promptly refused, but it is claimed, the
foreigners would do it il the American
competitors were out of the way.
So the fate of this American industry
rests with the new administration, and
time only will show how it is to be ulti-
mately affected.
