Charity is greater than justice? Yes,
it is greaior it is the summit of justice !;
it is the temple of which justice is the
foundation. But you cannot have the
top without the bottom. You cannot
build upon charity. You must build
upon justice, for this main reason-that
you have not at first charity to build
with. 1t is the last reward of good
work. DO justice TO your brother (you
can do that whether you love him or
not), and you will come to love him. -

DUESTROW IS GUILTY.
Jury So Decided After Sleeping on
the Verdict.

the Verdict.
UNION, Mo, Feb. 2.-The celebrated
case of DR.. Arthur Duestrow, the St,
Louis Millionaire. who has been Oil
trial during the past month for the
cold blooded murder of his wife and
baby two years ago, ended today, the
jury returning a verdict of guilty Of
murder in the first degree. After argu-
ments that took up the greater part
of Saturday, and lasted until almost
midnight, the case was given to the
jury, the members of which went to
rest without considering it. This morn
ing the jury took up the case, and on
the first ballot unanimously found
defendant guilty of murder in the first
degree. The result was rea ached with
out much trouble, each member of the
jury seemingly having settled the case
in his own mind in .he interval between
midnight and this morning. This YER
dict is received with almost universal
satisfaction.
This is the second trial that Dr.
Duestrow has had cn the charge Of
murder the first one resulting in
hung jury last year. The terrible crime
with which he was charged was COM
mitted in February. 1894. One day
that month his wife and child were at
home awaiting his coming TO take
drive. When he came into the house
Duestrow, who was drunk, began to
abuse his wife and finally shot her
down in cold blood. He then picked
up his three-year-old boy, beautiful
child, and, holding it at arms length,
killed it with a pistol shot through the
head His wife fingered for several
days and finally died.
After his arrest Duestrow, with the
help of his fortune, tried to evade the
consequences of his crime. Ex-Gov.
Johnson, who is credited with being one
of the finest criminal lawyers Of this
state, was given charge of the case,
and was assisted by Col. Nathan Dry
den, Charles Noland and J. Wesley
Booth Prosecuting Attorney Zachritz,
of st. Louis, was assisted by Judge
Bolte, prosecuting attorney for Frank
lin county; Judge Gallenkamp and Lee
Merriweather. Counsel for the defense
endeavored to establish a plea of in
sanity, but after two inquiries held be-
fore juries, in which much expert tes-
timony was heard on both sides. it
was given up and the case came to
trial in Union, change of venue hav-
ing been taken from st. Louis.
Throughout the last trial before Judge
Hirzel, Gov. Johnson and his assist
ants kept up the insanity idea and
were ably seconded by the defendant
who endeavored to create the impress
sion that he was crazy. When the re-
suit Of the jury's deliberations were
made known today, Duestrow's coun-
sci stated that an appeal to the su-
preme court would be made. Duestrow
received the verdict calmly. He sat
smoking a cigarette as the judge read
the paper handed in by the jury. AS
far as external appearances go, he
was the coolest man among the twen-
ty-fve lawyers, reporters and citizens
assembled in the court room.

TAYLOR'S FALLS, Mimi, Feb. g.
In line with the G / o e's recent eX-
ploitation of the method Of handling
grain in Northern Minnesota is the ac-
ton of the business men of Taylor's
Falls. Grain buyers from neighbor-
ing towns and Wisconsin were buying
the. wheat Of the farmers whose prod
ucts were naturally tributary to Tay-
lor's Falls, at prices which gave little
to the producers. considering the long
haul. The Taylor's Falls Produce COM
pany is cooperative institution, or
ganized under state laws, to buy and
sell farm produce, grain and hay for
cash. 1t is not organized for profit, but
simply for the benefit of the farmers in
the vicinity, its object being to hold the
cash trade where it belongs1at home
AS an example Of the advantage to
the producer the following compari-
sons of prices will be interesting:
Price offered for wheat at nearby points in
Minnesota and Wisconsin formerly hand
Price now paid by Tayior's Falls Produce ct'''
company ................... ............... soc
Price offered for oats at nearby points lie
Price now paid for oats by Taylors Falls
The following list of stockholders
comprises the most prominent busi-
ness and professional men in Taylor's
Falls: Hans Thoen, president, mer-
chant; o. ]. Gray, vice president, lum-
Der; l.. w. Marston, secretary and
treasurer, merchant; Frank Fredeen,
merchant; A. E. Fredeen, Hotel Coche
co; Otto Agrell, merchant; Ernest
Leske merchant; George S. Conner,
merchant; Hon. E. c. Gottry, county
attorney; Hon. A. ]. Anderson Mime
sofa legislature, all Of Taylor's Falls;
Smith Ellison, president First National
bank, Saltwater.
These merchants claim three great
advantages in the work of their cor
poration: First, the better prices real
lied by the farmer; second, the estab-
lishment of home. cash market, and
the gradual abandonment of the credit
system; third, an improvement in all
lines of trade, through reaching the
farmers who were formerly obliged to
trade where their warehouse and ele-
vator receipts were readily negotiable
Mankato has, in the past few days,
perfected similar organizat ton, and
other cities could profitably adopt the
enterprising course of Taylors Falls.

TARIFF BILL NEXT.
1t Will Be Reported in the Senate
WOrk of the Week

Work of the Week,
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Tbe senate
has no well defined plan for this weeks
proceedings. There will be no session
on Monday. 1t is possible, though bv
no means certain, that the finance
committee will be able to report the
revenue tariff bill ON Tuseday. the mat
ter still depending upon Senator
Jones, of Nevada. II the bill should be
reported there will probably be some
desultory speech making based upon
1t, but the consideration of the mea sure
would scarcely be seriously begun this
week, even though &C report should be
secured as promptly as is hoped by the
friends of the bill
Inc committee on appropriations will
claim good share Of the time that the
senate will be in session. The urgent
oenclency appropriation bill has
already been reported and the military
academy and pension bills will be put
In early in the week. None of these
VIII excite any prolonged debate and 1t
is altogether probable that all will be
disposed Of before the week closes,
Inc Cuban and Monroe doctrine resolu
tons are also on the calendar and can
De taken up at any time.
There is more or less executive busi
ness to claim attention and the general
calendar has been growing RAPIDLY as
the result of committee work. while
the silver bond bill has been claiming
the attention Of the senate. Under
these circumstances, the week bids fair
10 be one of diversified interest with
no one topic claiming attention.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-The bill
providing for the establishment of the
Vicksburg National Military park,
where the principal operations of the
war in and around that city were car
ried on, has been reported to the house
by Representative Bishop, of Michi-
gan, from the committee on military
affairs. The whole amount of land en-
braced In the proposed reservation
covers about twelve hundred acres, the
cost of which is not to exceed $5O, 900.
The $4,000 additional, which the bill
proposes to appropriate. will be used in
making accurate surveys Of the various
lines of both the Union and Confed-
crate armies, building roads, clearing
the grounds, and, so far as possible,
restoring the various forts, redoubts
and entertainments connected with that
memorable siege. The entire plan and
scope of the bill follows very closely
upon that adopted in the establishment
of the Chickamauga park, except that
the cost will be only fraction of the
amount devoted to the Chickamauga
field. -Four Of our great battlefields,
Gettysburg, Antietem, Chickamauga
and Shiloh, says the accompanying re-
port, have, by congressional enactment,
been dedicated as national parks, as
they had before been consecrated by
the best blood of the American youth
in both armies. The Importance of the
campaign and siege of Vicksburg is
not Inferior to any Of the fields now
dedicated. The siege and the opera
tions connected Herewith were partici-
pated in by troops from the following
states: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia,
Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mas

nesota, Mississippi, Missouri, New
Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio,

acts OF dishonesty and unfaithfulness,
and that the charges and demands of
the elevator company and the surety
company were malicious and false
threats made to affect Mahoney in his
vocation as wheat buyer and for the
sole purpose of extorting from him the
sum of S443.49. He refused to pay this
sum or any part of it and entered the
service Of the Interstate Grain COM
pany as buyer at Louisburg, MINI.
Then, on Aug. %, 1894, the complaint
says that the Cargill company mali
ciously and wrongfully threatened
Mahoney, for the purpose of extorting
from him the sum of SAB 49, that unless
ne paid 1t that amount of money
he would be unable to longer continue
in the service of the Interstate Grain

officers Of the CargiIl company that
Mahoney could not remain in the serv-
ice of the Interstate company as he
would be unable to secure bond from
the Fidelity and Casualty company or
any other company doing similar
business in this territory Mahoney
denied that he had converted to his
own use any Of the Cargill company's
grain or money, and refused to pay
the sum claimed by 1t or any part
of it. He offered to furnish to the In

performance of his duties and a proper
and honest accounting for all grain and
moneys that should come into his pos
session while acting as grain buyer for
the Interstate Grain company The
proffer of private bond was declined
for the reason that the Fidelity and
Casualty company had refused to bond
him on account of the claim made by
the Cargill company Mahoney then
offered to give to the Fidelity and Cas-
ualty company a private bond Of in
demnity provided it would bond him
in the service of the Interstate COM
pany, but this offer was also refused.
The result was that he was forced to
leave the services of the Interstate
Grain company, and was unable to Sc
cure employment as wheat buyer
from any other company, as he alleges
that the Fidelity and Casualty COM
pany issues all the bonds for the wheat
buyers and other employees Of the ele-
vator companies doing business
throughout the Northwest. Being de-
prived Of the means Of earning a liveli-
hood, he demands from the Cargill
company $4,000 damages.

MANY MATTERS IN THE SENATE
VIII Claim Attention This Week
NicaraEuan Canal Bill Forth
cOming-Short Session.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2-The impor-
tant features of the weeks proceedings
in the house will be in connection with
the resolution to cenSure Ambassador
Bayard, adopted by the foreign af-
fairs committee yesterday, and the SEN
ate free coinage substitute for the
house bond bill. The resolution CEN
suring Mr. Bayard will probably pre-
cipitate an exciting contest on the
floor, but will doubtless be adopted
when it reaches vote.
When the free coinage substitute for
the house bond bill is returned to the
house tomorrow, an effort may be made
by the silver men to concur in the
substitute. Such an attempt would. of
course, be defeated, as the majority
against silver in the lower branch Of
congress is overwhelming, but it might
be made in order to put the members
on record. The BILL according to the
present programme, will be immediate
ly referred to the ways and means
committee and reported back with
recommendation that the senate sub
stitute be non-concurred in, which in
parliamentary language would mean
that the house insists upon it's bill. 1t
will then remain for the senate. which
also will insist on it's. bill, to request
a conference. 1t is there that some of
the members at each end of the cap
1tol hope to effect a compromise, bat
the prevailing opinion Is that the bill
will die in consequence. The week. ex-
cept the portion devoted to the bond
bill and the Bayard resolution, will be
given up to a continuation of the work
on the appropriation bills The Dis
trict of Columbia bill is still under
consideration. The agricultural and
army bills have been reported, and
the Indian bill is almost ready. They

eide, however, was that of Mrs Au-
gusta Schwartz, a wealthy widow
who owned handsome residence in
Berkeley place, the aristocratic section
of Brooklyn. For some time past she
has been a constant sufferer from
neuralgia, and that, together with the
fact that her husband, Anton Schwartz,
prominent member of the Brewers

a year age under peculiar circum-
stances in New York city, had given
her great mental worry. She shot her.
self through the mouth this morning,
and when her son rushed into the room
he discovered that his mother had
placed several rubber tubes over the

where she lay. He also found an empty

a quantity of laudanum.

CANAL BILL FORTHCOMING.
Government Aid for the Project Ia
Wanted.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2-The special
subcommittee on the Nicaragua canal
OF the house committee on commerce
winch has been delaying for some
weeks the beginning of it's work. that
PRESIDENT Cleveland might furnish
congress with the report of the commits
sion which visited the isthmus last
summer, mas concluded to wait no
longer, and tommofreW will begin to
draft a bill
Chairman Hepburn; Of the commerce
committee, selected seven members to
compose the subcommittee about three
weeks ago. These gentlemen desired
to have in hand ali possible inforna-
ton upon the projects before they rec
commended any plan to the house for
constructing the canal; moreover they
thought their action might be con-
strued into discourtesy toward the
president if they should proceed inde-
pendently Of the views Of the commits
sion, or should seem to ignore the COM
mission. 1t is understood however.
that President Cleveland has been un.
able to find any time for studying the
various phases, international, engineer
Ing and financial. which the canal prof.
ect involves, because of the other mat
ters of dominant Importance, notably
the venezuelan boundary and the
maintenance of the gold reserve, which
nave been constantly before him since
this congress met. That is the report
brought from the White house by mem
bers who have spoken with the presi-
dent urging him to use his influence
in aid of the movement for government
control of the canal.
In view Of the probability that con-
gress will reach an early adjournment
about the first of June, the committee
fears to delay its Undertaking longer.
No forecast Of the probable lines of
the canal bill can be had from the
seven members Of the committee, as
they say there has been no discussion
yet except of tentative sort, but they
believe that the plans (which were be-
fore the last congress can be improved
