One of the surprising things developed by
o compilation OF statistics is the fact that
there are not as many fiour-mills in indiana
by several hundred, as there we're ten years
ago. OF course this falling off in the num-
Der of mills is no indication that the pro-
duction of -four and other products from
native cereals has suffered q like reduction;
on the contrary, the increase in the output
of mills now running is much greater than
at any previous period.
The little old grist-mill using one, or pos
sibly two. run of stone propelled by q
power plant of Anticipated design, if favor

several of its former and less fortunate

the Nordyke Il Marmon Company has

less, each OF these modern mills has marked
the retirement of moro than one old timer.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 5.-When court
opened this morning the jury in the Ians
case had not agreed on verdict. They
came into court at 10 O'clock and asked
for further instructions, presenting the
request in writing. Judge Porter in
formed the jury that their request was
wholly ,immaterial to the .qucstion and
with some sharp criticism of the jury
upon the written question, whatever it
may have been, the jury was sent back.
At Ills the jury returned with their
verdict which was as follows: con
the assault and battery case we find
defendant is not guilty and the county
pay the costs. On the aggravated assault
and battery case we find defendants not
guilty, but Colonies Hawkins and Strea-
ter each shall pay half of the costs"
After the verdict had been rendered
Attorney Braddock asked that the part
of the verdict placing the costs on de-
PENDANTS be set aside.
Judge Porter ordered that the motion
be put in writing which was done.
The court took the motion but
made no disposition Of it ex-
cept to order it fled. One of the attor
neys for the prosecution said they would
have now to depend on the suit of dam
ages for a vindication of their client.
This suit will be brought soon in tht
United States court, Iams, the prosecu
tor, being a resident of West Virginia
In that court suits for $4,000 damages
will be brought and the case will NJ
doubt go to the supreme court Of th'
United States before its fins disposition
as both sides believe the question shoult
be finally settled.

Carlisle Draws a Parallel.

BosToN, Mass, Nov. 5.-Despite
driving snow storm there was an immense
gathering in Fancuil Hall this afternoon
at the democratic business mems meet
ing. Henry L. Pierce presided and made
the opening address, the other speakers
being Hon John G. Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, and Hon. G. F. Williams. Ex-
Speaker Carlisle was introduced at 2
o'clock but it was some minutes later be-
fore the applause subsided sufficiently to
enable him to make himself heard. He
said that the one remaining question
of this campaign is whether tie
election can be bought-whether the
American people can be bribed with
their own money, wrung from them by
an unjust system of taxation (cried of
''good'0. "Our forefathers rebelled chief
ly because of tax which they considered
unjust-a tax on imported tea. 1t has
been reserved for the republican party
to bestow upon the President power
which King George never possessed, mol
tried 10 cxercise-the power to tax al
his discretion imported tea and coffee,
and sugar and hides. The mere state
ment of the question is enough to show
that the action of congress has been un
constitutional"
Mr.. Carlisle continued at some length
to urge the unconstitutionality of th'
Mckinley bill.
