Jury Trials Illustrated.

On reading accounts OF the opening
scenes In the Molineux trial in New York
we are rather at a loss to decide whether
the learned counsel for the State are bent
merely upon furnishing innocent amuse-
ment for the court, the prisoner and them
selves. Or whether they are only endeay-
oring to demonstrate 10 the public that
jury trials in criminal cases are intr.usi-
caily fsrcicaI ard very possibly subyersIve
OF justice.
The examination OF talesmen before Re
corder Cor. with a view to securing q
jury in the celebrated case, results to
say the least. in startling evidence that
good deal Of the money layished on eIu-
cation in the Empire State and in the
national metropolis has been wasted The
condition OF ignorance regarding common
English words and phrases displayed by
some OF the citizens examined as TO their
fitness TO sit IN the jury box in judgment
on a man to be tried for his life, is a
strong indication that the schoolmaster
has been abroad in Gotham to little pur-
pose. These observations apply TO per-
sons OF respectable position and presum-
edly fair education. Most II not all, of
them are products Of the public school
system as it exists in New York, and IL
they are TO be considered as fair. aver
age illustrations OF its educational results,
it must assuredly be set down as a dismal
failure.

He Opposes the Prohibition of Liauor
Selling in Georuia

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 16.-Mayor Wood
ward, of Atlanta, who several months
ago narrowly escaped impeachment pro
ceedings through alleged intemperance.
and who is now under pledge TO the city
council not to take another drink. has
come out in a powerful arraignment of the
bill now before the Legislature to force
prohibition on the entire State. The mayor
says il will mean the ruin of the large
cities and state of increased drunken
ness and disorder. He says in part:
The Whitman prohibition bill, now
before the Legislature is the most out
rageous measure the people of Georgia
nave ever been threatened with Instead
OF being conteRted with the local option
law. which is the best temperance meas
ure in existence, the advocates of the bill
are attempting to force upon an unwilling
people this most iniquitous measure,
which means ruin to all of the larger
cities of Georgia. If there is any prospect
of the bill becoming a law it is the proper
time now for the councils of the larger
cities to begin on some plan by which they
may recover from the blow which will be
inflicted when it becomes effective. They
will certainly suffer if it becomes a law.
1t simply means a fearful burden 10 At
lanta. Outside of the increased taXat on
which would follow, there would be more
disorder and drunkenness than has ever
been seen here. The sentiment Ct the peo-
pie in Atlanta is opposed to prohibition.
With this sentiment extant, it would he
impossible to enforce prohibition. The
prohibition times through which the city
once passed clearly demonstrated what
trouble it is for the law to be enforced.
At that time there was a much stronger
sentiment for prohibition than there is
now. What will be the result with tie
present sentiment?
Every bedroom will be turned into a
barroom and whisky will be sold cheaper
because there will be no license. 1t Will
be easy for anyone 10 get whisky and sell
it. and the city will get not one cent from
the traffic"

The result of all this was that the spec-

the matter be prObed to the bottom"
Agricultural Department officials explain
as follows the cotton report leak BY
which. as is alleged by the complaint Of
the New York Cotton Exchange. the last
special cotton crop report was in the hands
OF private firms before it reached the ex-
change:
on the 10th Of the month. at Il O'Clock.
we got out the cotton report. The West
ern Union and the Postal Telegraph people
send operators over here to transmit the
intelligence TO all exchanges So on the
10Th of November We made a statement
that. with all due allowance for underas-
Inmates Of cotton -raisers, it might be es-
tlmated that the highest figure which the
crop could reach would be 9.50G, 000 bales.
Yesterday we compared our printed report,
which always follows these informal re-
ports and in it We stated that the indica-
tons now pointed to a crop of about o.
100000 bales. This did not contradict in
any way the earlier report which merely
made statement as to the limit; the in
formation yesterday was turned over to the
western Union and Postal Telegraph Com
panies at las a. m"
The Secretary of the New York Cotton
Exchange wrote that this supplemental re-
port was not received until 2:45 p. m. It

himself knows a half hour before the re-

happens that shrewd manipulation will
pretend TO have an inside knowledge OF
the Agricultural Departments report, and
from outside sources gain enough real facts
to give a color Of truth to his claim.

Witnesses familiar wlth the tin pate

Commission yesterday The first testi-
uony taken was that OF William H Grif-
fifth, of Washington. Pa, secretary OF the
Steel and Tin Plate Company. He was
followed in the afternoon By II. F. Going.
Of Baltimore. who Is an extensive manu-
/ facturer Of tin cans The hearing OF the
day was concluded by a short statement
by ". L. Sawyer OF the Corporation Trusl
Z Company Of Delaware
Mr. Griffith believed the Mckinley tariff
created the tin industry in this country.
but he would not say that the present duty
Was necessary to is continuance He SAID
the American Tin Plate Company prac-
tically controlled the business ia this c0un~
try.
Mr. Going. the next witness. stated that
he had retired from the active mauagz-
ment Of his works in Baltimore. He has
been q manufacture OF tin goods in tbs
country for many years. He said tkat the
first American tin plate manufactured
was inferior to that imported from Wales
but that now the quality Of the home pia-s
was superior to the foreign. The present
high price Of tin plate he did not s-trib-
ute TO the extra demand for canned goods
on account of the war but 10 a general
enlargement Of the demand. IN CalifOr-
MIA alone, he said. there was packed in
tin each season 100000 cases OF frulI. and
double that amount Of salmon.

fetal, and others harmful. bat he tho ght
in the latter ease they would eventually
work their own destruction.
Attorney Sawyer, in speaking OF the Del

that the business of the concern was TO
represent corporations formed in the state
which had their plants In other parts OF
the country. The Delaware trust law has
been iH force since March 10 last, and it
