FAYORS IMPORTERS.
A Decision Rendered in a Steel Billet
s. s-- Controversy.

New York. Oct. 30.-United States Cen
eral Appraiser Jewell has rendered his for
NAL decision in a steel billet controversy
which has been attracting much attention
of late among the importers users of for
eIgn steel billets and also among Gus
toms officials. The decision is regarded
as favorable to the importers in that while
the valuation of the bilets had been ad-
Vanced considerably over the figure which
the importers contended was the correct
market value, the advance will not in
crease the rate of duty; in other words,
Colonel JEWELS decision leaves the mer-
chandise assessable at the rate of three
tenths of cent pound. or allows it to
come in under the provision of the tariff
law. which imposes that duty on steel
billets slabs. etc. valued at one cent a
pound or less. The general appraisers de-
cision, however, accepts the domestic or
home market price in Germany. ii is I'M
dersto0d. as the correct valuation upon
which duty should be assessed rather than
the export price actually paid by the i'm
I porters in the open market. and as this

MOTION TO DISMISS
Made by MOlineux's Attorneys
and Denied by the Court.

New York. Oct. 9o.-CounseI for the
defense in the Molineux trial moved to-
day that the court direct the jury to
acquit the defendant on the ground that
the evidence was insufficient. Justice
Lambert denied the motion.
Former Governor Black, in moving
Molineux's acquittal said the evidence
given was not sufficient to warrant a
conviction; that there was no evidence
that the defendant had ever had in his
possession cyanide of mercury or the
bottle holder in which the poison was
sent; that he did not mail the poison
package, and that there was no proof
whatever connecting the defendant with
the crime charged.
At the close of Governor Blacks argu-
ment Justice Lambert said: I will
deny the motion for the present and Will
hear ali the evidence"
Mr. Black then asked the court to per-
nit him to make his opening address to
the jury tomorrow, and Justice Lamber t
acquiesced, declaring court adjourned
until then. After adjournment Mr..
Black said:
There is a strong likelihood that We
shall call Mr.. Molineux to the stand, but

WANTED-A SOLOIST.
Choral Society viii Select One This
Evening.

At a meeting of the music committee
of the Topeka Choral society to be held
this evening, a soloist viii be chosen to
lead in the rendition of the Creation
which is to be given by that organiza-
ton this winter.
The regular meeting of the society
Wednesday night was the last one at
which new members were accepted, and
the total number now is about It's. The
society is in better condition than it
ever has been, largely, owing to the ex-
IRENE care which has been exercised in
admitting members, only those having
voices which could pass a given examin-
alton being accepted.
Blanks for those who desire to become
associate members have been printed
and are being disposed of to those who
wish to join the organiza zion in this
capacity. An associate member may
not take an active part in the music,
but at a price which in the end IS
thought to be considerable saving he
secures the privilege of two reserved
seats for all the productions which the
society gives throughout the season and
has the advantage of getting the same
day before the chart opens to the
general public.
