He said he had done so.

JOHN BROWN ACQUITTED.


A Jury Returns "a Not Guilty Verdict In
His Case.
John Brown, the man accused OF
shooting "Scotty" Brown a few
weeks ago, was acquitted in Cir
cult Court late Thursday and dis
charged. There were three dis
senting votes i'll the last ballot.
Judge Perry had sentenced the
man to prison for two years. John
Browns rifle went off during an
early Sunday morning row and the
ball grazed the compliments side.
Opinions, at the time, were con-
siderably divided on the case.
A Chinaman by the name OF
Cheong Hoy who has figured so
prominently as plaintiff in several
cases against Young All In, a sue
cessful rice planter and merchant,
has discontinued all suits against
the Chin Wo Company OF which
Young All In is manager. 1t is
said that he has taken this course
as a compromise, there being
heavy charges pending against the
said Cheong Hoy, which will likely
be discontinued.

SYDNEY, N. S. w, Oct. 80. In
the Legislative Assembly last night,
Mr.. O'Sullivan moved the adjourn
ment to discuss the probability Of
war outbreak.
The Premier, replying, said the
colony was never in more efficient
state for military defence, and a
scheme of concerted movement of
the whole of the colonies in case Of
danger had been prepared. He quite
agreed that the colonies could not
be too well prepared, and the mat
ter would have the full attention of
the Government.
The Colonial Secretary said he
had discussed the question with
Maj or-General Hutton, who had
complained of the want Of qualifi-
cation of certain high military
officers. He also stated they had
large quantities of useless powder.
He urged that If defence was to be
kept in an efficient state there
must be large expenditure. Not
withstanding, the colony had never
been in a better state of defence.

HORSES STILL USED.
A boston Dealer Says the Animal Is Not
Yet Obsolete.

A Boston Dealer Says the Animal Is Not
Yet Obsolete.
A Boston horse dealer writes to
the GlObe that his trade has in
creased more than fifty per cent in
the last three years. He finds that
such inventions as the elecric car
and bicycle do not affect the sale of
horses. AS the experience of the
Boston horse dealer is contrary to
that which finds current expression
at the present time, the reasons
given for it become interesting.
The principal reason is that
horses have recently been
brought within the means OF
families of comparatively small
incomes. That which was a
few years ago the luxury for the
rich is now the comfort OF the poor.
Small horses for the saddle are in
good demand. Ladies ride more
than they did, and only a compare
lively small number have taken to
the bicycle. There is less demand
for high priced roadsters of the 2:4o
variety, but the family horse who
is willing to make himself gener-
ally useful is wanted at reasonable
prices.

Goods from the German bark ii
Hackfeld, belonging to Hackfeld 6,
Co., are being discharged at the
Pacific mail wharf. The boxes
have been piled in the new shed
back of the wharf and close against

During the big shower yesterday

too large, ran over. Water poured
down the wall in a torrent. Some
of the packages of hats, dry goods,
matches and whatever else happen
ed in the way were given thorough
wetting. Gillillian soon noticed
the condition of things and had the
goods hastily removed, but not
perhaps until considerable damage
had been done.
All the goods are American and
