and others presented various and often

and others presented various and often
peculiar excuses.
But after tedious sittings for twenty-nine
days the jury that will be intrusted with
the life of William Henry Theodore Dur
rant has been selected and sworn. The
jury will enter upon the duty of listening
to the statements of counsel and the ad-
duction of evidence for and against the
prisoner next Monday.
The general opinion is that the jury
could not have been improved. 1t is an
American jury. They are men from the
business walks of life, and most of them
have reached the age marked by silver
hairs. The attorneys seemed determined
to exclude all foreign born citizens who
had not been long residents of the United
States. Men of families were apparently
desiable, as we're men who had done jury
service and were thus competent to, COM
prehend without further study the instruc-
tions of the court and the value of the evil
dence. The degree of intelligence repre-
sented in this jury is believed by counselto
refute the prevalent notion that Ignorant
and incompetent men are desirable as jul
rors in criminal cases.

AS TO RIGHTS OF TRUSTS.
An important Suit to Be
Brought Against a To-
baCCo Combine.
Said to Be a Violation OF
the Law.

SYRACUSE, n. Y, Aug. 29.-The le-
gality of the business being carried on by
the American Tobacco Company, every
where known as the tobacco trust, is to be
tested through the medium of proceedings
brought by C. A. Whelan of the tobacco
iobbing firm of c. A. Whelan & Co. in this
city. At his instance petition addressed
to Attorney General Hancock, praying
that that official institute suit to compel
the trust to suspend the transaction of
business in this State was served on the
officers of the American Tobacco Company
in New York to-day.
The papers in the case were prepared by
Edgar M. Wilson. The petition is re-
enforced by affidavits showing the methods
which are pursued by the trust in the con-
duct of their business, and which, it is
said, are plainly in contravention of the
conspiracy laws. The petition includes
transcript of the contract used by the
trust in dealing with its customers, an
iron-bound agreement that in case goods
are furnished the dealer by the trust,
goods of other manufacturers shall be ex.
cluded from sale. This is held to be
defiance of law, and on the strength of the
eflueHCc lneIeiu CoH1aihou IL 10 odlu IHe
Attorney General will grant the petition.
The answer to the petition served to-day
is returnable before Attorney General
Hancock in this city on Tuesday next.
There is little question that the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company will resist these
proceedings to the very last. The trust. is
one of the richest combinations of capital
in the world. Its stock amounts to
$3,OOOO0O, and it is held by manufacturers
of cigarettes whose private fortunes
amount up into the tens of millions. 1t
will doubtless be represented at the hear
ing in this city on Tuesday by the ablest
counsel. The case is understood to en-
brace number of important points en-
tirely new in the discussion of trusts and
their rights

NO CHANCE TO ESCAPE.
Various Theories as to the
Cause of the Latest Colo
RADIO Disaster.
IT WAS A FAMOUS PROPERTY
Millions of Dollars Worth of Gold
Bullion Taken From the Old
Claims.

CENTRAL CITY, Colo, Aug. 90. =
Water broke through the walls separating
the abandoned workings of the Bob Tail
Tunnel property and the Sleepy Hollow
and Americas mines at o'clock this after
noon and caught thirteen miners before
they could be warned of their danger.
News was brought here by courier late
in the day, and men have gone down to
assist in recovering the bodies as it is not
believed that any of the workmen escaped.
How extensive the disaster is cannot be
determined tonight.
The Bob Tail Tunnel property was
famous in the early days of Gal pin County
for its great yield of gold. Its shafts,
drifts and chambers penetrate into the
hills for miles. The property was closed
down for years. About four years ago a
Haverhill Mass company openeda por-
ton of the property named the Fisk, out
OF which they have taken over million
dollars.
This has encouraged others to lease por-
tons of the property, and of such were the
Sleepy Hollow and the Americas, which
are easterly extensions of the Fisk. The
new workings must have gone too close to
the abandoned drifts, filled with water,
and the walls broke, engulfng the new
workings.
The break occurred at the Mabee work
ings, now idle. Two unknown Italians
were drowned In the Americas and eleven
men in the Sleepy Hollow.
Those unaccounted for are: Thomas
Williams, William Thomas, Thomas Cor
bis, J. Harris. John Parks, 81. Prisk and
son, B. Broken brough, ]. Nozoro, n.
Vegans and O. Prous. The body of II.
Prisk has been recovered.
A later cause is given in supposed rise
of water in the incline shaft of the Greg
DRY lode, whose pumps have not been in
operation for some time. The excessive
rainfall of this season is the remote cause,
the pumps of the district not being able to
handle the water.

AIDING THE CUBAN JUNTA
The Representatives of South
American Republics
- s-s.. Enlisted. -.,
Consul Moya of San Domingo Dis
missed for Supporting the
Rebel Cause.

NEW YORK, n. Y, Aug. 29-The Sun
says:
The leaders of the Cuban juDta in the
United States have been carrying the
war into Africa. 1t is now said to be a
fact that nearly every Consul representing
the South American republics in this
country is an active agent in the junta
and is doing his utmost to further the
cause of the insurgents. This has put
every representative OF Spain on his met
tie. 1t has particularly awakened Senior
Arturo de Baldasano, Spain's Consul-Gen-
eral in this city, to what is his manifest
duty, to protect his country by insisting
upon the observance of the international
laws of neutrality.
Consul-General de Baldasano had re-
ceived information that the Consul for the
Dominican Republic, Senior d. NJ. Moya,
is a leading member of the Cuban Revolu-
tionary Club at jacksonville, Fla. He is
stationed as San Domingo's representative
at that post. Senior de Baldasano imme-
diately drew the attention of the Domini-
can Consul-General in New York, Senior
Mozy Gil, to the work of Moya at Jackson
vile, where the Cuban movement is es-
pecially strong. He declared that San
Domingo was fagrantly violating neutral
punishment.
Upon these representations Senior Mozy
Gil cabled for instruction. He is abso-
lutely in charge of Dominican affairs in
this country, but decided to ask for in
struction from the Cabinet of San Do
mingo Word was sent to him to use his
judgment in the matter. He was warned,
however, not to get his country into COM
plications with the Government of Spain.
He took this as hint, and acting with un-
questioned authority at once telegraphed
to Moya, dismissing him from the service
of San Domingo.
Moya is Cuban himself, and he sent on
scathing letter to New York, in which
he stated that his own country was only
striving for the same freedom San Domingo
herself had obtained. He has been Con-
sui for fifteen years, and is recognized as a
bright and energetic agent. One of his
friends in this city said last night that the
action of Senior Mozy Gil could only be
justified by the fact that he had received
positive instructions from his Government.

WORK OF FOREIGN FARMERS.
Secretary Norton Thinks 1t ahead of
Amerfcans.

Secretary Morton Thinks 1t Ahe00 OF
Americans.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 29.-The
rapid advances made by the agriculturists
of other countries, both in the matter of
production and the facilities for marketing
the products, are watched with deep con-
Germ by the officials of the Agricultural
Department. Secretary Morton said yes
terday: alt looks as if the farmers of all
the big producing countries are trying to
shut out their American brothers. The
agent of the Mccormick Harvester Com
pany, now in Russia. gentleman of intel
ligence and experience, writes me that he
has seen crops of Is to 100 bushels of
wheat to the acre thrashed out there.
What would we think of such yield here I?
"And see what Argentine is doing. A
report dated July II has reached the de-
partment from Buenos Ayres, stating that
upon the basis of the figures for the first
six months of this year the Argentine Re-
public will send in 1896 $1,000 head of
beef cattle alone to Europe.
accompanying this was a photograph
of a scene 300 miles inland of an ocean
going vessel lying alongside an elevator
and being loaded with wheat that grew on
the other side of the Northumberland
no land carriage at all. When our wheat
reaches the seaboard or point at which it
can be loaded on ocean vessels a pretty
penny has been added to the cost of pro-
duction in the freight paid for its transpor-
tation by railways.
"Only to-day" continued the Secretary,
"a Mr.. Featherstone, member of the
Union Club, Sydney, Australia, was in
here and told me he had just com pleted
arrangements for shipping dressed beef
from that country to the London market,
with the privilege of thirty days storage
in cold-storage warehouses on ARRIVAL at a
half cent per pound for the whole trans
action.
eve may have to repeat Leduc's tea
farm experiments, said Secretary Morton,
'If what McCormicks man says is true,
that tea is being successfully grown about
Odessa, Russia. | don't see why it can't
be made to grow in South Carolina"

other Fruits, Ho,Cerer, Bring Good Prices
in London.
LONDON, ENG, Aug. 29.-The consign-
ment of California fruit which arrived by
the steamer New York was in much better
condition than any of the former ship
ments. The Bartlett pears were too ripe,
and this fruit consequently sold at from
to II shillings box at the Covent Gar
den market sale. Hardys and Duchess
pears fetched II shillings box, and Cler-
goats (halves) shillings pence. Peaches
brought from 5 shillings to shillings 9
pence box, and plums from to shil-
lings. ss
Mr.. White, the auctioneer, who con-
Quoted the sale, advises that the shipment
of California plums be stopped for fort
night, after which time there will be a
better trade. He says there will be abso-
lutely no French pears after next week,
and that the crop of English pears will be
exhausted in a fortnight, after which there
will be grand trade in the California prod
uct unit, Christmas. The quality of the
fruit received by the New Y ok will restore
the confidence of the dealers.
