Not Guilty.
In the Norman whitecap cases
down in Fairfield county, the jury
on last Friday, returned verdict O.
not guilty. At first the jury stood
eleven for acquittal und one for con
yiction, and wanted to make mis-
trial. Judge Benet, however, sent the
jury back again, and when it did reach
verdict it was not guilty. The jury
deliberated over the case for Il hours
DIR. Meadow Not Guilty.
The sensational case of DIR. William
Meadow, indicted on the charge OF
having attempted, on the night OF Feb
ruary 8, 1897, to burn the building oc'
cupied by the Union Drug company
and the Peoples National bank, was
tried in Union last week. There was
a great deal of conflicting testimony
in the case but the jury, after remain
ing out only about half an hour, re-
turned with verdict of acquittal.
Another o. p. Move.
Columbia Register: The attorneys
of Bluthenthal & Bickart, of Atlanta,
have asked and been allowed to amend
the original bill in the case to compel
the Southern railway to haul original
packages. The amendment shows that
the Southern and all other railroads,
are accustomed to haul crockery, glass
ware, ric.a-brac, and all other such
goods, packed in straw, and not In
closed in cases or protected in any
special way to insure against breakage
and thieves. The attorneys will en-
deavor to show by this that there is
collusion between the railroads and
the state authorities.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SUGAR.

There has been a great deal of hard lying
about the sugar schedule of the new tariff
law by those whose role is to misrepresent
the law, and of course it will continue. The
advocates Of free trade lie hard as we'll as
die hard. In the present case their asser-
ton that the new sugar schedule was
framed in the interest of the trust had a
sort of quasi confirmation in the fact that
Sugar Trust stock did make big advance
when the report of the conference commit
tee indicating the ultimate form of the
schedule was made known. That advance,
however, is easily explained.
The new sugar schedule is not unduly
favorable to the trust, and nobody knows
it better than members of the trust them
selves. The assertion that it is implies that
Chairman Dingley and Senator Allison are
either knaves or fools, and everybody
knows they are neither. They both de-
clared in their places in Congress that the
new schedule did not give the trust any
new advantage. They both declared, and
their statement is borne out by that of tar
if experts, that the new schedule gives the
refiners no more protection than the actual
cost of refining, viz, IS cent per pound
AS the bill left the House the
rates on refined sugar We're 1919
cents per 100 pounds higher than on
raw This would be Is cent per pound and
this is called the differential. 1t was in
tended to cover the bare cost of refining
The Senate rates were more advantageous
to the sugar refiners than the House rates
were, but those finally adopted by the con-
ference committee and embodied in the law
established precisely the same differential
viz, II cent per pound between raw and
refined sugar. The conference report made
a slight increase in the rate on both raw
and refined sugar, but it left the differen-
tial exactly as it was in the original House
bill But, if the conference report did not
give the trust any new advantage. what
caused the advance in Sugar Trust stock
when the report was made public? 1t was
this The trust had imported about 100000
tons or 1,5OO0 900 pounds. of sugar
under the Wilson law. The new law lays
a revenue duty on imported sugar sufficient
TO afford reasonable protection to the
American producer The trust expected this
would cause an advance in the price of SUI
gar and thereby benefit them to the amount
of the difference between the rates of the
Wilson law and those of the new law. The
conference report also showed that Secre-
tary Cages suggestion that an internal
revenue tax of l cent pound be placed on
all unrehned sugars in the United States
when the new law should take effect was
not adopted. If this recommendation
had been adopted the trust would
have had to pay ! cent a pound
