SPENT THREE HOURS IN JAIL.
Miss FIagler Pays the Penalty for Kill
ing Negro Boy.

Washington, Feb. 25.-Miss Elizabeth
Flagler, daughter of Gen. Flagler,
Chief of Ordnance, L. s. A., who last
spring shot a colored boy named
Green, son of a Treasury department
messenger, was arraigned in court to-
day She pleaded guilty to involuntary
manslaughter and was sentenced to
three hours in Jail and to pay a fine of
$500. General Flagler paid the fine and
the young lady was conducted to Jail
to serve the three hours.
The proceedings were the result of
an agreement between District Attor-
ney Birney and Miss Flagler's law
yers. An effort was made to keep the
trial from the knowledge of the pub
lie and for that purpose Judge Cox
called court half an hour before the
usual time.
The district attorney said, "This is
one of those unfortunate accidents
which does not call for anything but
the lightest penalty in the power of the
COURT" and Judge Cox declared the
sentence without making any com
ments.
Miss Flagler was driven to the jail
in her fathers carriage and was re-
ceiyed by the warden with great
courtesy. She passed the three hours
in the matron's reception room in the
company of Gen. Flagler and an Mrs.
Winthrop and was driven to her home.
The colored boy Green was alleged
to be stealing apples when Miss Flag
Ter fired from the window of her faith
er's house, killing him instantly.

ANOTHER BLOW AT THE TRUST.
Four New Patents Issued for Cigarette
Making Processes.

Washington, Feb. 25-The United
States Patent Office has issued to-day
four letters-patent to Bernhard Baron,
of New York, under which it is under
stood the National Cigarette and To-
bacco company viii operate III the
manufacture of novel cigarette which
has already been introduced to the
trade to very considerable extent These
patents relate to machines and pro-
cesses for making cigarettes and for
an improved cigarette-rod and cigar
ette, the cigarette-rod being formed
by first forming a continuous rod of
tobacco, oval in cross-section, and a
wrapper-tube also oval in cross-sec-
ton, and enclosing the rod, which is
then cut up into oval cigarettes. The
claims of the patents cover, broadly,
the continuous oval cigarette-rod and
the machine-made cigarettes of oval
or elliptical cross-sectional form.
The value OF this improvement can
be understood from the fact that
heretofore oval cigarettes have been
made by hand at the rate of six hum
dred a day, whereas the improved
patented mechanism will make the
machine-made oval cigarettes at the
rate of between 400, 900 and 100000 per
day. The machine-made oval cigar
cite is readily distinguishable from
the handmade cigarette, and from the
ordinary pencil shaped cigarette, and
the rapidity with which they can be
made and their perfection would seem
to indicate the claim of the inventor
to reyolutionize the manufacture of
cigarettes,
The rapidity and consequent cheap
ness with which these articles can be
made constitutes an important factor
in the fight which the National Cigar
cite company is making against the
tobacco trust, a fight which has been
going on for several years, involving
over the validity of the charter
OF the trust, which comes up for con-
sideration before the courts in several
of the States at an early date.
Over 1000, 100000 cigarettes were
in the United States
last year and the very material re-
duction in price, consequent upon the
increased speed of manufacturing
apart from the improved quality of the
new cigarette, will result in a large
to the public.
