SUGAR Is HIGHER.-No time has
been lost by the sugar trust in reaping
the benefits conferred upon it by the
new tariff bill, and the gain which Con-
gress made possible to this monopoly
is the loss of the public Already the
price of sugar has been advanced in
many cities. The wholesaler, paying
higher figure. exacts the difference
from the retailer, who in turn protects
himself by increasing the price of the
commodity of the consumer.
And this higher price has been put in
operation Notwithstanding the univer-
sally conceded truths that conditions
for cheapening the cost of the article
were never before so favorable, the
crop being remarkably large.
That the advance is not already
greater is explained by the fact that
dealers, forseeing the action of Con-
gress, laid in big stocks in anticipation
of an increase in the price of sugar;
therefore the full effect of the new
measure may not be felt until this sup
ply has been exhausted.
There have been advances, however,
and it is generally agreed still sitter
prices will soon prevail.-New York
Herald

Europe's Mimic Warfare.


A dispatch from Paris to the New
York Herald says the season of the
great military mannavres has returned
and, as it does every year, the whole OF
Europe is, during the month of Sep
tember, going to play at war peace
fu lly.
In France 1OOO 900 men will mannuvre
around Chateaudun, where NJ. Casimir-
Perier will hold his first review as Pres
ident. In Germany the Emperor will
take part in the great man9uvres at
Thorn, at which fortress will be used
for the first time the new electrical in
ventions, of which the Prussian army
hopes great things. Great man9uvres
will also be held in Bohemia and Hun
gary, and the Emperor Francis Joseph
will be present at both, and in Hungary
he will review more than 100000 men.
Russia was also to have held great
military maneuvres, in which 100000
men were to have taken part under
the eye of the Car at Smolensk, but
suddenly the man9uves have been
countermanded under the pretext that
the Cars health will not per-
nit him to be present. But the
Gar is only suffering from slight at
tack of influenza and, as far as it is pos
sible to know the trnth in Russia, where
everything that relates to the Emperor
is kept secret, the real reason for count
ermanding the manoeuvres is the dis
covery Of plot against the Car.
The conspirators, it is said, had un-
dermined the Ostaschkows Castle where
the Car was to have had his headquar-
ters during the manoeuvres. Twenty
eight persons were arrested, all of them
telegraphic employees and students.
The first arrests we're made as long ago
as last May, and the police having come
to the conclusion that the conspiracy
was a widely spread one, the manoeu-
vres were put off.
One of the consequences of the dis
covery of this conspiracy is that Riflen-
bach, the head of the Moscow secret
police, has been removed from his posi-
ton. 1t is also said that the Gar was
greatly moved by the attempt made on
the life of his daughter on her wedding
day, when o bridge gave way under the
carriage in which the young princess
was leaving with her husband. The
supporting beams Of the bridge had
been sawed, but the princess was not
hurt.
All this proves that the nihilist move
ment, which all believed had been de-
stroyed, still exists in Russia, and this
is an additional element for the compli-
cation of European affairs.

DUcKED HIS WIFE.-Celestine Gros-
seant, native Of France, but resident
of the village of East Canaan, Conn.,,
thought his wife was too familiar with
young nephew Of his who came re-
Gently from France, full of recollections
of Paris. Mrs. Grosseant, who is a
handsome young woman, seemed not
averse to the young mans attentions.
Grosseant was very angry and he swore
be would properly punish his wife.
In the family are four children, rang
ing in age from Is months to yelrs.
On Tuesday night Grosseant took the
children and started out on the road
with them. He left them at points two
or three miles apart. Mrs. Grosseant,
with neighbors, went in pursuit. All
the children were recovered, the young
est being found lying in the road in
front of the residence of A. 2. Briggs,
about two miles from there.
When Grosseant returned and found
that the children had been recovered
he was furious, and declared that he
would teach his wife a lesson. He
dragged her to an open well and low
cred her by the heels, head first, into
the water. Several times he soused
her, and held her under until she was
nearly sutfccated. When he thought
he had given her sufficient punishment
he allowed her to go. The next day
she secured a warrant for his arrest.
In Justices court he was fined s. and
costs, the justice taking into considera-
ton the fact that the wife had been
giddy and deserved some punishment.

HANSEN MUST HANG
Judgment of the Lower Court
Affirmed.
SYNOPSIS OF THE DECISION
when Insanity is Pleaded as an Ex-
cuse the Defendant Must Fur
nish the Burden OfPr0Of.
YNoPsIs OF THE DECISION
Associated Press.

Salem, Ore, Feb. 19.-The supreme
court today affirmed the judgment of
the lower court IN the case of John
Hansen, convicted of murder and SEN
fenced to be hanged from Clatsop coun-
ty. The appeal was on the grounds of
errors being made in admitting certain
evidence and giving and refusal of GER
tain instructions by the court. Defend
ants counsel contended that the confess
sion made in the presence of the sheriff
shows that Hansen was insane, and
that a subsequent confession was made
after recovering from the effects Of the
liquor. Judge Moore, in his opinion,
says this statute requires the accused,
when insanity is pleaded as defense,
to establish the fact beyond a reason
able doubt 1t is not in the province
OF the courts to question the policy of
the law, or say that the rule established
in cases is inhuman, or that If the ac-
cused can offer sufficient evidence to
raise in the minds Of the jurors a rea-
sonable doubt of his sanity, then the
state must establish this fact, like all
others, beyond a reasonable doubt
From the facts and circumstances of
the case, the jury were at liberty, and
1t was theirs to say by their verdict
whether, if the design to kill was form
ed and matured in cool blood, and not
hastily, and having so found, under the
proper instruction from the court, the
judgment is affirmed. The opinion COW
ers fifteen pages of typewriter copy.

FOOL BUFFALO oTFIcIALs.
Palm Off Each Others Photographs in
An Attempt to Secure Certificates.


Buffalo, Feb. 1S.-Inspector OF Imml-
grafton Debarry, of this port, has dis
covered conspiracy among the Chi
rlese of Buffalo to effect Illegally resi-
dence emitting them to exemption from
the Geary expulsion act. Moreover, he
has strong evidence in several cases OF
papers gotten out for Chinese who have
not reached this country, but whose
friends expect to smuggle them across
the Canadian border and have applied
for and received certificates for them
upon false representations, SO that once
in this country they will have the pa
pers guaranteeing them the right of
residence. One Of the methods is this:
A Chinaman who Is desirous of a resi-
dence in Buffalo, but has no right to be
here, gets some Chinaman who bears a
resemblance to him to assume his name,
and taking his photographs as his own,
makes an application for certificate.
A white witness is easily found who viii
swear to the identity Of the applicant,
and, as all Cinnamon look SO much
alike to the officials, the matter is easily
worked. The most common way, how
ever. is for the Chinaman to have his
photograph taken and send white con-
federate to make out his application
and hand in the pictures The applica-
ton, Of course, is full of false state
ments. When the certificate is granted
the Chinaman must claim 1t in person,
and this he does with no fear of detec-
ton through the attached photographs.
About 50 Cinnamon had arranged to
get residence certificates in this way,
and some Of them have succeeded. One
of them is said to be Hong Gong, Chi
nese merchant Of 70 Morgan street,
whose case Inspector Debarry is now in
yestigating. Gong, it is asserted, was in
China when his application was made
out. Hong Gong, impressed with the
ease in which he had been smuggled.
undertook to care for number of his
friends in the same manner. and this
aroused the suspicious Of the officials
The authorities will now investigate all
cases very strictly
