THREAD MONOPOLY DENIED
THE j. & p. COATS COMPANY DO
NOT AIM AT MA VINO ONE.
Their Business Rests Upon More Secure
Basis Than Other Firms.

At recent meeting of tn stockholders
OF the j. & p. Coats Thread Company, the
statement that this concern had a monop-
oily. of the worlds sewing cotton trade was
discussed. 1t was stated that in Great
Britain, outside of the mills in which the
Coats are interested, there are more than
20 sewing cotton manufacturers, num-
Der Of whom have large means and ex-
tended experience in trade. In France,
Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, Italy, Ger
many, Austria and Russia there are over
40 sewing cotton manufacturers, and in
the United States j. & p. Coats compete
with two concerns of the first Importance
and numerous smaller manufacturers.
A number OF these employ in the manu-
facture of the article which j. q T, Coates
produce over thousand work pecv leach,
and the capital invested by competitors In
this trade must amount koa good many
millions sterling. CY~T such circum-
stances, there can, oiX sdrse, be no ques-
tion of a monopoly icing obtained by any
one company or eveh by combination Of
manufacturers. j. & p. Coates have no
monopoly, nor do they aim at having one;
business rests ---~1s more secure basis
than hNOnoS N YtF hey are in exception
ally strong A.oul cost of production,
efficient and econoiHeal productions, and
the esteem I'm which their goods are held
by the consumer.

GOV. JEAkS' GRAVE.
His Relatives Endeavoring
to Locate His Remains.
Search Has Been Made of the
Spot in Rear of City Hall. \
The Body Was Inferred in June, l83l...Now
Thought to Be In Mineral Spring Cemetery.

The search for The remains OF Joseph
jerks, at one time Governor OF this State,
was continued by Mr.. Henry F. jerks this
morning in Mineral Spring cemetery, but
nothing definite resulted.
Saturday afternoon Capt. jerks, accom-
panied by Thomas Z. Berry, William III.
Phinney, Jesse G. Barber, Hiram C. jerks
and Robert Grieve visited the old cemetery
which formerly existed between High and
North Main streets. Mr.. Phinney, who Is
an old resilient of Pawtucket and familiar
with this portion Of the city, led tne way
and located the spot where the remains OF
the Governor had formerly lain. The place
is about 10 feet east of the site purchased
for the new Masonic Temple.
After laborer, under direction of Mr..
Berry had dug about four feet the head OF
the grave was discovered, evidently Mr..
Phinney's remarkable memory had served
him correctly. The only traces discovered
were nails covered with a coating of rust,
shreds of cloth and what Mr.. Berry pro-
nounced, as an expert in such matters, de-
cayed wood. The few bones found would
seem to indicate that the remains, or the
greater part of them had been removed.
This morning the search was resumed by
Capt. jerks and Supt. Berry in Mineral
Spring cemetery at place in the northern
portion of the cemetery, where Mr.. jerks
had been told the remains had been in
tered after their removal. The result was
unsatisfactory and no traces were found.
In an interview with TRIBUNE reporter
this afternoon, Henry F. jerks said:
sowing to unfavorable conditions this
morning was unable to make as thorough
a search in Mineral Spring cemetery as
desired. Mr.. Berry and myself found
nothing, but II the weather permits be-
fore winter sets in, the norther portion OF
the cemetery win be thoroughly searched
am inclined to believe that the remains
| of Governor jerks were taken from the
| old burying ground in the '4Os, and prob
ably taken to Mineral Spring.
II have spent years in looking the mat
| ter up, but this is the first satisfactory
| evidence have received. The statements
| oil the people Who have gwen me inforna-
| tion have been 80 contradictory that II
was useless to Investigate. am now oi
| the opinion that part of the remains were
taken from the old burying ground and
not reinterred as claimed by many old
residents"

COURT CHRONICLES
An Overseer Before Judge
Shove For Assault.
After. the Facts We're Known He
Was Adjudged Not Guilty.


The case against Enoch Dickey, charged
with drunkenness and revelling was heard
by Judge Blodgett in the District Court
this morning, and Enoch paid S2 and
costs for his fun. 1t appears that Dickey
having been naturalized considers himself
somewhat superior to his mother, who is
of French ancestry and conducts board
ing house on Dexter street.
At frequent intervals Enoch after inn
bibing, endeavors to run he establish
mept; this his mother seric sly objects to,
and it resulted in his arrest.
Dickey promised to leave the manage
ment of the house entirely 10 his mother
in future.
The barrel of beer seized ty the police at
the place of John O'Neill, Congress street,
last Sunday, was ordered forfeited.
When these two small matters had been
attended to, Judge Shove led the way to
the court room, and the case OF Highland
vs.. Proffer was announced.
The case was somewhat amusing. Mary
Highland, who was employed as weaver
by the American Yarn company, had the
overseer, one Isaac Proffer, arrested, charg-
was given hearing this morning. j. Os-
field, Jr., appeared for Mary and City So
licitor jerks looked after the interests Of
the defendant.
Miss Highland, who is a tall brunette and
looks able to handle several men OF the de-
fendant's size, took the stand. From her
testimony 1t appeared that on Thursday,
Nov. 18th, owing to dispute over wages,
she left the mill, and while packing up her
possessions preparatory to departure
dropped her scissors, and while bending
over to pick them up, the overseer passed
along and In an off-hand manner applied
his shoe to the rear portion of her anat-
omy, causing bruises both physical and
mental.
From Miss Highlands testimony, she
had close call, for II the looms had been
running "my face would have been split
open."
Overseer Proffer said in effect, that the
plaintiff had a large and vivid imagina-
tiOn, and the fach acclaimed By her had
never taken place.
Questioned by Attorney Osfield, as tc
whom had taken the place OF the plaintiff
at her loom, whether man or woman? The
defendant said 1t was ''lady." Attorney
Osfield took due note of this fact, and was
careful to refer to the help by this name
during the balance of the trial.
Rosa DonneIly, the "lady" of the case
was the next witness, and her testimony
favored the overseer, as did that of a Miss
Stevenson, who followed her. 1t took the
court about six seconds, after the two law.
yers had given him their views of the case
to find the defendant not guilty.

viii Practice with Heavy Gups

Pensacola, Fla, Nov. 30.-It Is rumored
In military circles that the troops of the
First artillery, now stationed at various
posts on the gulf and Atlantic coast, are
to be concentrated here for practice with
modern heavy guns, which will soon be
In position on Santa Rosa island. The
selection OF site for another battery
leaves no doubt in the minds Of military
men that Pensacola IL to be heavily foru
fed as rapidly as possible, and as the
troops need practice In the handling of
the modern guns this harbor Is deemed
by military men to be the best that could
be selected for the purpose. They would
have the open gulf for target practice
and at least 1000 men can be comfortably
Quartered at Fort Barrancas and the
navy yard

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an nfamed condition of the mu- cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it IS entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con- dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces
