Court continued In session until Q
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. when 1t
adjourned until 10 o'clock this morn
ing. Nothing was done after o'clock
when the verdict In the Cook case was
rendered. The jury, 1t is understood,
agreed to render verdict In favor OF
the plaintiff, and the only thing which
caused any discussion was the amount
which the jurors had some trouble in
agreeing upon. Some only wanted to
allow 81, 700. while others were in ia.
vor Of giving the whole amount
claimed.
After court adjourned yesterday
afternoon. and the verdict became
generally known, several we'll known
mon were interviewed. whose opinions
greatly differed In regard to 1t. One
geous robbery" while others said they
thought the jury erred, In not giving
Cook the entire $4,000 claimed.

Pearl Buttons and the rarifl.

From the American Economist we
learn that before the passage of the
Mckinley tariff, there were only sew
enteen pearl button factories in the
United States. none of which were
busily employed or turning out large
quantities OF pearl buttons. To-day
there are seventy-seven factories, all
OF which are running on full time and
are crowded with orders. This is what
Protection has done Tor the pearl but.
ton industry In the United States.
One OF these new factories is that of
the Standard Pearl Button Company,
ut Detroit Mich. and In his speech
at the Detroit banquet on February
22d, Governor Mckinley incidentally
remarked that this factory never could
or would have been established but
for the tariff of 1890.
= OF course the calamity papers Of De-
troit could not let this pass without
mention, and they Immediately claim
ed that Protection had nothing to do
with the establishment Of the pearl
button industry in that city, but that
Il was due to the invention OF improv-
ed machinery, which had greatly low
cred the cost OF production. Now, how
ever, Mr.. George Carlyle, the inventor
OF the machines in use at the Standard
Company's works, comes out in let
ter to the Detroit Tribune, in which he
says that, but for the passage of the
Mckinley bill my invention would be
OF no value, and there would have
been no incentive for mo or any one
else in this country to make further
inventions in this line"
This proves first, says the Economist.
that the establishment OF the pearl
button industry is due entirely to the
protection afforded by the Mckinley
tariff. Second, that protection stimu.
iates inventive genius, as we have of,
ton shown. Third, that the tariff is not 6
tax" but that by giving an oppor
tunity for the employment of improv
cd processes and machinery, and tends
to lower instead of increased prices, al
of which will probably cause great
mourning among tho tariff reformers

The Second Baptist Society would
sell the Fourth and French street prop
erty at $4,000. An outlay OF $4,000
would make eight store fronts and
booths on Fourth and French streets.
These rented on an average OF twenty
dollars each per month would bring
an annual income OF $3.50 being
over eight per cent. on the invest
mont. There would stu be a large

know it is very difficult for them to

the loss OF time lie felt by their employ
