ALMOST INDIANS

Chicago, July 26 Prof. Starr OF
the University OF Chicago, who two
years ago startled the scientific world
by declaring that only the constant
Influx of foreigners kept Americans
from having the complexion Of red
men, has been Investigating the mat
ter fully, and now declares that he
has sufficient proof TO convince the
most sceprical. For the purpose Of
study Prof. Starr has taken the Ger.
man immigrants who have settled in
Pennsylvania, West Virginia and New
England, who hold most tenaciously
to the characteristics of their country
men.
They usually settle in communities
and seldom intermarry with other
nationalities. After several years Of
close observation the professor has
been convinced that the German imi-
grants are gradually assuming some
Of the physical attributes OF the North
American Indian.
He found that the transplanted
German grew more brown each year
and that the color OF the hair became
much darker Prot. Starr then studi-
ed Am ricans, and found, as he ex-
pected, that similar peculiarities ex-
isted--only in greater degree-among
other inhabitants of the United
States. Prof. Starr thinks there
should be some remedy, and favor lib
eral immigration laws, believing that
IL American women are to preserve
their creamy compilations the foreig-
ner must be welcomed.

IS INNOCENT
Judge Stevens Orders
Verdict For Defense
IN FosBuRG CASE
Robert Fosburg Relieved Of
Terrible Accusation Against

Pittstield, Mass, July 26 judge
Stevens today ordered a verdict fol
the defense in the Fosburg case.
The early morning found every one
interested in the Fosburg trial on the
qui vive. 1t was generally known
that the attorneys for the defense had
privately argued before Judge stevens
late yesterday for the discharge OF
their client az d that the judges de
cislon would be announced this morn
ing.
The members OF the Fosburg family
breakfaSted together at $50. Robert
S., the son, looked better than for
days. He had smile for ever one.
Upon the opening Of the court Judge
Stevens came in and Immediately be-
gan his address to the jury. He said:
"Lufing six days we have listened to
one OF the gravest crimes in the his
tory OF this commonwealth.
The trial has proceeded in the form
Of an irquest. A great deal of evi.
d nee was introduced without objec.
tion. 1t is due t. the chief Of police
to say he has tried to do his duty.
"a motion has been made to take
this case from the jury. The govern
ment has not furnished preof of this
crime. You are directed to give a
6f pot guilty., :, a..s. .--.,-s.s~. r.
Imnedmtel there was demon
stration which was quickly queted.
The clerk then arose and called the
jury to their feet "Mr, Foreman
what say you: Is the defendant
guilty or not guilty."
,,,%sa1,ta5y Not guilty, >, said sF0reman Loyns'
Again there was applause. Two
minutes afterward Young FoSburg had
bet II ordered to sGaud up and was
formally discharged. The jury and
the Fosburgs quickly LETT The court
room. Before dismissing them Judge
Stevens thanked them.
Hundreds wanted to congratulate
the Young man on his acqnital, but
he huri led to thu hotel with his fam
lily. The elder Fosburg went immedi-
ately to the telegraph office, where he
sent macy messages telling his friends
and relatives of the outcome of the
trial.
PPM completely satisfied with the
veroct. ! did not expect anv other
decisi"n," said the father. Relative
to the family's future movements he
said, 81 shall probably leave PittSfeld
in about week and others OF the
family 90 soon afterwards.
MY son Robert goes to Maynard,
Mass, where he has a home awaiting
him which he purchased and furnish
ed shortly before this sad affair chang
ed his plans.
District Attorney Hammond said
the failure of the state to prove it's
case lay in the change in Beatrice Fos-
burg's testimony.
cat the inquest she testified that
Robert passed her after the shot was
fired and in S. veral other material
points her evidence was different.
But for this the state would have
proved exclusive opportunities. Chief
Nicholson said, II don't care to dis.
GU the Cause in any way"

The Rocky mountain region and Cali

In the astern and western portion
Of Kansas late corn is much improv-
