Yet Mrs. Spivey Is Charged by the Grand
 Jury With Murder.
 MONTGOMERY, Ala, July 23.-The coro- ner's jury in the case of Mrs. Mary Spivey, charged with poisoning her husband, re- ceived the report of the state chemist to the state. It was to the effect that no traces of morphine could be found in the stomach.

Ar no time in it's history has this coun- try been in such an advantageous posi- ton with regard to export trade as at the present time. Never before have the costs of manufacture at home been reduced so nearly to the level that prevails in com- petitive countries, and the existence of productive capacity in excess of home de- mands enables cur manufacturers to turn their attention to the other markets of the world. China and Japan give promise of unprecedented internal development as g result of the awakening influence of the recent war. More freedom in trade rela- tions with China should enable our mer- chants and manufacturers to send to the courtry a larger share of our products than has ever been possible. There is no ques- tion that careful study of the require ments Of the chinese trade, and an effort to meet it's wants. would bring very satis- factory results to American exporters. We are foot free in this race and should make a lively dash eastward.

THAT CUP IS REASONABLY SAFE

After Battle Royal Between the Two Big
 White Sloops In Shifting Freezes the
 Newest HerreshOff Creation Runs Away
 Frosn the Boat That Rested Valkyrie IT. - NEW YORK, July 23.-AlthSugh Defend CT and Vigilant sailed for the second time under the auspices of the New York Yacht club in q cup race, the contest was de- signed to furnish a basis of judgment to the America s cup committee for the choice of the defender in the ultimate interna- tional races this fall. Defender won on Saturday, and she won again Monday, and by minutes and 50 seconds unofficial time.
 Defender started 20 seconds in advance of Vigilant at II :25:30 a. m., and she fin ished over the 30 mile triangular course at 3:45 D. m. Thus Defenders elapsed time was 4:19:3O. Vigilant started at II :26:0 and finished at 3:54:4S, and her elapsed time is 4:2S:47.
 Thus the boats have had a windward and a beating contest, and they have had the triangular course, which afforded them two reaches and one practically inward run. The data furnished thus to the cup committee may not determine one or the other of the boats as a result of these races to be the choice for the autumn contests. The results of Saturday and of Monday are, however, before them, and it is prob lematical whether any further trial races of the Vigilant or of any other boats will be had against the Defender.

IN the very greatness of their triumph may lie the seeds of future disaster for the British tories. The overwhelming maiori- ty which the conservatives will seemingly have in the new parliament may encourage them to ignore their unionist allies and drive the latter back into the ranks of their erstwhile liberal and radical associates. Instead of a Liberal Waterloo. the elector- al contest of 1895 may prove to have been the Bull Run of the party of Gladstone; and long before the conservative lease of power shall have run out the victors in the pending political conflict may again be confronted by the representatives of the British democracy. reunited and confident of their strength to carry out the great re- forms 50 brilliantly and consistently advo- cated by their illustrious leader.
