TO PROMOTE ORATORY.
Prize for Carleton and st. Olaf to
Contest For.

NORTHFIELD, Mimi, Dec. A. X.
Ware, of this city, whose influence has
been so strongly felt here since he took
up his residence less than year ago,
has just divulged a little offer which will
mean much to Carleton and st. Olaf. he
proposes to make a standing offer OF 800
as prize TO be contested for each winter
by the seniors Of the two institutions.
Each college Is to send two members of
its senior class to contest for the prize.
The contest is to be purely oratorical
and the subject treated one of current
interest. The winner Is to receive $40 and
the one winning second place SIC 1t Is,
further planned to charge a small admis-
sion fee on the night OF the contest and
to give 40 per cent of the receipts to
the senior class whose representatives
win.
st. Olaf has good prospects for an at
tendance Of 400 inside Of two years, and
from these can surely select senior ora
tors of no mean ability. Carleton, with
present enrolment of $50, has already
gained a reputation in oratory. Mr.. Ware
has built the opera house and done many
other things to supply needs long felt in
Mortified. Preparations will doubtless
soon be made for the contest Of the COM
ing winter.

1t Is Finally on in Earnest, After
Much Delay.
NEW YORK, Dec. 4-The actual trial
of Roland Burnham MolineuX, charged
with causing the death Of Mrs. Katherine
]. Adams by sending poison to Harry s..
Cornish, with intent to kill, commenced
today, though legal preiiminaries have al
ready occupied twelve days, that much
time having been consumed in getting a
jury. The proceedings today were largely
occupied by the opening address to the
jury Of Assistant District Attorney Os-
born.
At the request of counsel for the de-
Tense, the indictment found before the
July grand jury was read to the jury.
The indictment was read in full, the pris-
oner listening intently and composedly.
When the reading of the indictment had
concluded Mr.. Weeks moved for Its dis
missal on the ground that the proof was
not sufficient, and requiring the district
attorney to elect the indictment on which
he was to prosecute.
The court overruled the motion, and As
sistant District Attorney Osborn began
his opening address to the jury. Through
out the scathing Introductory remarks OF
the assistant district attorney the prison.
er remained collected and calm.
In striking contrast to the demeanor of
the younger MOl1neuX was the attitude of
his father, Gen. Leslie ineux. Again
and again as Mr.. Osbo Il. attacked the
character of the accused the elder man
burst into tears.
AS Mr.. Osborn described the illness of
Harry G. Barnett, who died at the Knick-
erbocker club, from the effects Of cyanide
Of potassium, Barlow S.. Weeks, counsel
for the accused, objected in the most
strenuous fashion. He asked the recorder
to instruct the counsel for the prosecution
not to again refer to the Barnett case.
The recorder refused to SO rule or SO to
order. This is considered as significant,
as showing a disposition on the part of
the recorder to allow the introduction of
evidence regarding the death of Barnett
in so far as it relates to the Adams poi
soning case.

The Retail. Grocers' association last
evening passed resolutions expressing the
sense of the meeting to the effect that
the grocers of this city refuse to handle
baking powders the manufacturers of
which have failed to comply with the
state law.
At the last session of the legislature
a bill was passed providing that all
baking powders offered for sale after the
1st of January, 1900, must bear on the
label complete list of the ingredients.
The violation of the law is punishable by
fine Of not less than $25 and imprison-
ment. Some of the baking powder
companies have already complied with
the law and others have informed the
dealers that they WILL but several threat
en- to fight the law and say they will not
comply. They have informed the grocers
that they will not give them a list Of the
ingredients.
Several of the grocers last night ex-
pressed themselves freely on the subject
and stated emphatically that they would
not be found with much Of the trust pow
der on their shelves after the Ist of Jan
uary unless the labels are Forthcoming.
Also none of the grocers wish to be prose-
cuted for violating the law, the powders
will be out of the market in this city
after the 1st of January.

Pipe Combine Case.
WASHINGTON, Dec Ain the United
States supreme court today the Add
stone Pipe case was decided. This case
involved the constitutionality of the com
bination CT pipe manufacturers to manu-
facture pipe, which it was charged was a
trust. The decision was handed down by
Justice Peckham and was adverse to the
combination. 1t was, therefore, in oppo-
sition to the trust. The opinion of the
court of appeals fer the Sixth circuit was
affirmed.
The decision draws a clear distinction
between combinat ons affecting interstate
commerce and those applying to one state
only. The opinion attracted very general
attention, because it is the first on trusts
which has been handed down since the
subject of trusts has come into great
prominence.
