was up in the loft. This was the only
place, The hottest about, where she could
get aud not hear anything. In all your
observation have you ever heard of
an attempt TO create an alibi which was
more strange than the cIrcumstaL ces of

THE DRESS QUESTION.
Mr Knowlton argued that the silk
dress produced by the defendant was not
the dress worn at the time of the mur-
der. as shown by Mrs. Churchill,
Doherty and DR.. Bowen. The search
the day OF the murder was insufficient
but put defendant on her guard, and Sat-
urday'S search failed to disclose the dress:
therefore he claimed that it was con-
cealed. Paper would have protected the
defendants dress, and burnt paper was
found In the stove.
The two versions of the burning of the
defendants dress were irreconciliable.
Defendants conduct since that time was
discussed and Mrs. Reagans story was
declared to be true. The production of a
hatche5 was no part of the Goy rnments
case. but 1t was a part of its duty to pro-
duce all IL knew bearing on the case.
After discussing again the matter of
the note he briefly but powerfully sum-
married. his entire argument, claimed
that the defense amounted to nothing,
and closed at five minutes past twelve
with an eloquent appeal to the jury to
decide as their conscience should direct.
The court then took q recess until
nfteen minutes to two.

further says that the testimony OF wit

by the Government officials conducting
the trials of the accused men.
There Is much indignation among the
foreign residents of ConsJanLinople at
the apathy of the American legation in

SUFFERING AT THE COURT HOUSE.

Jailer Davis Nsg.ects to Do His Duty.
Que of the disgraceful methods Of Bob
Davis In carrying out his obligations as
which he takes care of the court rooms. 1t
Is his duty to clean the Court House
and keep it supplied with ice water aud
clean cuspidors. The filthy conditio
OF the court rooms and the cuspidors has
long been subject of notoriety aud un-
favorable comment and public in
f1gnation. Today's neglect was
even greater than usual. There
was not drop of ice water to be had in
either Cour troom or in any of the three
Jury rooms. Court constables. lawyers,
JUDGES, witnessed aud jurymen almost
suffered from this neglect. Ice
water was in greater demand
to,fay than 1t had been for any day this
year. Yesterday Clerk John Boyd OF the
Board of Freeh olders was compelled to
MI the water cooler in his Office
himself because Davis subordinate had
not properly attended TO it. Clerk BOYD
permits all the school children who pass
through the Court House grounds to
drink Ice water from the cooler IN his
office, and THESE little we're
deprived of this necessity yesterday
until MIR. Boyd rolled mp his sleeves and
filled the tank. Davis is certainly PAID
have his work properly done. To deprive
of ice water in weather like today is dis
graceful.
II is also notorious fact that when
there is icewater in the tanks it is too
foul to be drank because of the
filthy condition the ice oeolers
are kept in. 1t is rarely
indeed that one of them is
washed out, and thers is not a
instance on record since Davis has been
.-ailer that these hlshy ice cool
ers have bean scaledd and
secured. So foul is the conditio
of he ice coolers that the
ildges refuse to drink water from them,
and have their ice water placed in
pitchers which the judges or court
constables clean themselves. Tod Y
a court constable was sent to the jail 10
order Davis or his deputies to furnish
ice water, which was done about noon.

looks very pale and apparently suffered
from his confinement. He had not been

EXCESSIVE CHEAPNESS.
Notable Deterioration In Manu-
factured Articles Attributed to It.

factured Articles Attributed to 1t.
There is q cheapentng of ths COST OF
productions which can be regarded ouly
as o misfortune, according Co Mr.. Lei.
cester Allen. who writes on the subject
in the Engineering Magazine. He saYs:--
The effur6 10 secure uu Increase OF pro-
duction without corresponding increaa
Of cost is commandaole IN aud of igseif,
aud 1t has resulted in q much larger out
put, measured in quantity, from most
modern establishments. But to what
can the notable deterioration In the quail
ity of manufactured articles be attrib-
uted, II not to rae effort TO compete by
cheapening products regardless Of quail
ityP A very large proportion of all lines
of goods now placed on the market are
inferior TO articles of their kind as made
twenty or oven ten years ago. There
must be some limit to the extent to
which chespening oy deterioration and
adulteration can be carried. 1t is true
that manufacturers may justly excuse
themselves by tia assertion tnat they
must make what the public demands,
and that more and more tha public de-
n1snds cheaper arriclss. and is willing to
l,ut uu with inferiofity IL by SO doing first
cost eau be reduced. It 10 hard TO find
any answer 10 this argument. The
manufacturers make out a good case as
between themselves aud the majority of
their customers. The desire for outside
display, even at the sacrifice of intrinsic
worth, thai nervades modern society Is
at the root of this as it is OF many other
evils. When the cheap and nasty ceases
to be sought by purchasers, it will no
longer be placed on the market. The
misfortune is that manufacturers have
coDtrlved to finish things that are ln-
ferior in such way that they simulate
In outside appearance that which is really
good. Those who would continue to
make really good articles may, perhaps,
initiate reform by adopting palmer
style of finish, such tnat its imitation
cannot disguise defects.

THE KILLING OF BERTlE WAGNER.

HOWELL. n. j., june 20.-Considerable
dissatisfaction is expressed here at the ar
rest in Brooklyn of Lewis Wood, the four
teen yea r-old boy who on Saturday last
shot and killed BERTHE Wagner, the
tbree-vear-old son of Farmer Wagner. at
this place. Special Detective Charles E.
Strong, of the Prosecutors sffice, will
call upon Governor Werts this afternoon
to obtain from him a requisitiOn upon
Governor Flower for the alleged muir
derer.
The. in quest will not take place until
tomorrow. In tine formal charge made
before Justice of the Peace Croxiu. of
Freehold, Mr.. Wagner accuses Wood of
wilfully and withforethoughtsh and
killing his son. All the dead child's
effects, together with the guns. have been
taken in charge by the Coroner. who,
with the jury, viewed the body aud the
scene of the shooting late yesterday
afternoon.
A peculiar feature OF the case is that
neither the Coroner, the States officials
nor anv of the judges knew of the mur-
der until they read of 1t in the
papers.
