trial of General Sanguilly and Colonel
Lechuga, Cuban patriots arrested on
charges preferred by the Spanish Vice
Consul for attempting to send the Ber-
muda expedition from Fernandina last
week, resulted to-day in their discharge.
The Government attorney asked con-
tinuance, saying it was impossible to get
all the testimony ready inside of ten days.
The Spanish Vice. Consul, who had
made the complaint, fatty refused to
testify, imagining he was exempt Com
missioner Locke said the Government had
been given sufficient time to produce testi-
mony, as Sanguilly and Lechuga were ar
rested four days ago. AS to the refusal of
the Spanish Vice Consul, the Commits
sioner held he could com pei him to testify,
but did not deem it necessary as the Gov.
ernment was unable to substantiate the
charges. The Commissioner expressed
doubt of the reliability of the evidence
the Vice Consul could produce, and in
timated he would not issue another war
rant on the Consul's affidavit.

A representative of the Model Wooden
Mill Company stated, on Saturday, that
prosperity had come to the wooden mills
again, after years of depression. This COM
pany has all its new machinery in position
and is running at full capacity, the en-
ployes making seven days week by MAX
ing overtime. Even with this the mills are
unable to fill orders received as readily as
they would like to. There are now seventy
five people on the mill pay rolls, this being
the largest number ever employed The
dyehouse, with it's improvements and other
modern machinery put in recently, has in
creased the capacity of the mill consider
ably.
Mr.. George Merritt, of George Merritt &
Co, states that everything is moving along
very satisfactorily. The mill is running full
time and full handed on the special lines
of flannel this mill manufacturers. which
have a high reputation all over the coun-
try. Mr. Merritt states further that the
outlook for a good fall and winter demand
for goods is highly fiattering and that such
prices will be obtained as will enable the
wooden mills to run without loss or strug-
Cling to make any profit. During the de-
preston no interest suffered more than did

The present management of the Indianap-

in handling the yards which is highly cred
liable and means great results A repre-
sentative of the. company has just returned
from London, where he perfected arrange
ments for furnishing the London markets
with the finest cattle of this local market
which is credited with handling the finest
beef cattle of any Western market. Under
the arrangement A. Kuhn & Son are to
ship to the Heavy Carcass Butchers Asso-
citation of London 300 to 500 head of fine
beef cattle a week, and on Thursday last
the first shipment of three hundred head
was made to Philadelphia, from which port
the steamship carrying the cattle will sail
to-day, and from this on the shipments are
to range from 300 to 800 a week as the cat
years been purchased on this market for
export shipment this is the first direct ar
rangement with the European slaughterers
that the indianapolis stock yards have had
and the posi- bilities are far reaching. as it
may mean that this market will in time
furnish the great bulk of choice cattle for
London consumption. Kuhn & Son expect
to ship 500 head the present week These
cattle are inspected and tagged at Indian
apolis for export, and must be strictly up
to the standard before the inspector will
pass them.

CINCINNATI OUTRANKED
INDIANAPOLIS NOW A LARGER GRO
Gerry JOBBING CENTER.
in the Queen City-Cattle Ship
ments to London.

It doesn't date far back when Indianap-
oils dependent very largely upon Gin
cinnat for its groceries. At that time there
was large trade in New Orleans sugar,
rice and molasses, making Cincinnati an
important depot of distribution The retail
ers in the eastern and southern parts of
the State purchased most of their stock
Of Cinnicnati Indianapolis was struggling
to gain foothold as a wholesale distribut-
tor. The contest between the two cities,
when it once began in earnest, was sharp
and decisive 1t is no disparagement to the
Queen City to say that Indianapolis has fin
ally grown to be a larger grocery jobbing
point than its sister city. There are num-
Der of houses here, each of which does a
larger business than any house in Cincin-
natl. The growth Of this trade is but a nat
ural result of Indianapolis central loca-
ton and superior distributing advantages.
The retailer located in the eastern and
southern part Of the State, who is mdoern
and progressive in his IDEAS gives Indian
apolis the preference Those who have not
been buying in this market are much sur
prised when they come here to find that
self-interest invites their orders here. The
history of this growth has previously been
written up in these columns and it is not
the purpose now to again recall even it's
prominent features, but reading such re-
view alongside Of the statements here made
will readily explain why this center has be-
come such an important one and has at
tracted to itself such wonderful increase
in business in the past decade.
There are at the present time twelve
wholesale groceries doing business on an
extensive scale, the trade of three of the
larger Of the houses being in excess of that
Of any grocery jobbing house in Cincinnati.
The indianapolis jobbing houses are strict
ly adhering to the rule to sell goods
at retail, and this has worked much in
their favor. The sales of the twelve houses
last year reached about $100000 and this
year, says one Of the leading grocers, will
exceed. IS, 100000. One of the largest houses
sales will, he thinks, although not a. men,
Der or the firm, reach 81 800, 600 this year,
and second well up in that neghborhood
as each sold over 81, $50 900 worth of goods
last year. Their business is far reaching
and by no means confined to Indiana and
illinois, The twelve eSta Adjustments employ
large number of men as travelling statesmen,
as shipping clerks and drivers of their
teams and drays and with each year their
business increases in volume and the trade
of this fall is far exceeding that of any
season since Indianapolis took its present
advanced position as a wholesale grocery
point
