A fellow of an oxford college tells an
anecdote about Mr.. Gladstone's visit to
the college in question when he was stay
ing in oxford for the last time. in 1892.
He had been dining in hall. and after
ward attending common room which
was just over, most of the company hav-
ing dispersed. The distinguished guest
was standing. with his back to the fire
narrating some Renaissance of his I'M
versity days. Yes, SIR he. was saying,
II set eyes on him then for the first
and last time, and that must have been
let me see-fully sixty years ago"
at this point the young man who was
sitting at the corner of the fireplace and
was afflicted with a cold. happened to
cough, slightly. Instantly Mr.. Gladstone
wheeled about. and, making him a coqr
teous how. said, with his usual emphasis:
Thank you, sir; thank you. am oblig-
ed to you for that correction did ex-
doubt I should have said fifty years or
fifty-fve at the outside" The confusion
of the young man who had not the honor
of the great mans acquaintance, and from
whose mind nothing was further than to
interrupt his "reminiscences by word or
sign may be imagined.

JESSE JAMES ACQUITTED.
Kansas City Police Unable to Convict
the Young Man.

Kansas City, Feb. 2S.-Young Jesse
James, son OF the notorious bandit whose
name he bears, was today adiudged not
guilty of completely in the robbery of a
Missouri Pacific express train at Leeds,
in the outskirts of Kansas City. The
robbery which the police accused young
James of leading was committed on Sept
% last. and was the last Of numerous
train robberies in the outskirts of Kansas
City.
The jury was out less than an hour, and
the verdict of acquittal was reached on
the first ballot.
In rendering their verdict of acquittal,
the jurors were compelled to discredit
entirely the confession of Witness w. w.
Lowe, who admitted being a member of
the band, and who described the robbery
in every detail, duplicating as his ac-
completes young James, Andy Ryan,
Evans alias Bill Ryan, and several
others. After returning the verdict, men,
bers of the jury stated that they could
not ACCEPT the Lowe confession or the
theory OF the police, adding that the po-
lice located James in too many places in
a very brief time,

3. Molineux will be presented to the
grand jury tomorrow and an indictment
against him for the murder of Mrs. Kath-

an. hour and g, half today with Recorder
Golf. with a view to preventing the pre-
sentation of his clients case to the pres
ent grand jury. The life of this body is
about to expire. and it was thought the
case would be left for its successor, which

however, refused to interfere. on the
ground that it was not his province to

termined District Attorney Gardiner to
push matters. He obtained a transcript
of the testimony from Coroner Hart, in

torneys to draw up the Indictment, and

FESTIVAL PATRONS MEET.
Madame sembrich's Maine Debut to Oc-
cur I'm Portland.

The meeting of the patrons of the
yesterday morning, was one Of the most
en- tn usiastio ever held and there Is reason
to believe that the festival will open with
over thousand assured patrons. Over
30 ladies were present and the response
which they brought from persons whom
they addressed on the subject Of the
festival were Of the most encouraging ma
ture. The list of patrons was revised to
include only those who were willing to
take active part in the work of prepare
ton. There Is general impression
among the patrons that II they take $50
worth of tickets to dispose Of they must
be responsible for $50 whether or not the
tickets are sold.
This is a mistake as the unsold tickets
can be returned, and those who would
like to assist the festival promoters, but
have held backyi because they did not
care to assume the responsibility, Will
take hold and do all they can do to
make the concert success financially as
well as artistically.

THE PEOPLE, NOT THE TRUSTS,
MED PROTECTION.

There is a strong sentiment among
right minded American people against
giving the powerful trusts of the coun
try the additional benefits of a protec
tive tariff. There may be some Istice
in prote C ing infant industries" but
in the case of oppressive monopoljes
the line should be drawn. In such
cases the people and not the trusts
most need protection. For our part,
we are in favor of anything to wipe
out monopoly, and if that can be done
by removing the duties on all foreign
goods that come in competition with
trust made goods-or if the trusts may
be crippled by this plan, and it is plain
that they can-then, we say, let it be
done. And we hope that all anti mo-
nopolists will j Din hands to bring about
this reform.
Speaking of the power of the trusts,
an exchange says:
20 wing chiefly to the power of com
bined capital, iron prices have ad,
vanced sharply in tina past few months,
and results are far reaching. Nails are
markedly higher, adding to the cost of
constructing farm buildings and fences.
In the past three months the tin plate
trust has thrice advanced it's prices,
and is now said to pay enormous divi
dends on As millions of capital stock,
largely water The stove manufac
turers have planned a 10 per cent. ad.
vance. which means an added cost OF
some 81. 600 900 annually to the Ameri
can people. The wire trust has been
&C Tally active in increasing the cost of
finished goods. Since the beginning OF
last December wire has advanced $19
per ton a size which manufacturers OF
wire fences formerly bought at $50 now
costs them $43, and sooner or later
they must be forced to advance their
prices TO farmers"
These are but a few instances. When
the various trusts that have just been
organized also get "in a good way O.
working" greater results may be con
fidently expected. Is it not plain Their
that the people, not the trusts, need
protectioni
