at Spring Valley will 60 to Joliet and
serve an indeterminate sentence for
their unlawful act of driving the
negroes from their homes. The notion
of Judge Gibbons for new trial came
before Judge Stipp. and, after listen
ing to counsel for two days, he
rendered his decision, in which he
allowed John Lauer, Jean Brault, Paul
Yerley, John Quimby and 10 Lemon
new trials upon the ground of insult
fciency of testimony. While there is
considerable adverse criticism of Judge
Stipp's decision, 1T is the opinion of

that the law has, to degree, been
vindicated by the court permitting the
verdict OF the jury to stand against the
majority of the rioters.

murdered although the murderer is
unknown. Tom Lally, her son, who
lived with her, claims the old lady fell

the belief that the story is untrue and
that her injuries We're inflicted while
she was in the kitchen, as the walls
are spattered with blood. AT the

Major Quinn, United States engineer

Major Quinn, United States engiI eer
in charge of the lighthouses in the New
Orleans district, says that the lower del
II and the sea marshes along the Gulf
8of Mexico are slowly sinking. For
more than a year experiments with the
gauges have been in progress at the
mouth Of the Miss ssipDi river. and. as
d result, Major Quinn has reached the
conclusion that the level of the gulf
has been raised one foot since 1877.
This the major attributed to a gradual
though irregular subsistence of the land
along the coast, and, he believes,
throughout the Mississippi delta and
the southern portion OF Louisiana
