When the case against George Gr,y,
charged with cruelty to animals, was
dismissed Friday at the cost Of the
complainant, Edward Cubbison, II
seemed on the surface of things that
the incident was closed. The case
was dismissed at that stage simply
because the witnesses for the State
failed to show up. and after court had
adjourned the Mayor the Chief Of
Police and City Prosecutor got together
and figured out that the witnesses who
did not appear We're liable for contempt

Gray by overdriving, told the Mayor

Unable to Fill Orders,
Although They Have
Largely Increased
Their Manu-
featuring
Facilities !
Closing Out Their Present
Stock at Extremely
Low Prices

On account of the unprecedented de-
mand for our pianos and organs from
dealers in all parts of the country, who
have been selling our goods for years,
although we have largely increased
our manufacturing facilities, we find
ourselves unable to supply the trade
and Mt the same time continue to sell
our goods at retail through our numer-
Gus branch stores. We are therefore
forced to close some Of them, and the
Akron store is included in that number.
Until our present stock is all dis
posed of, we will sell at prices that
will move them quickly, and enable us
to close up our business here in the
shortest possible time.
We will make special low prices for
cash during this sale, but will also sell
on installments, if you are unable to
buy the other way.
If you are intending to buy piano
or organ this fall or winter, it will
pay you to look at the goods we have
to offer. Our stock is not very large
so come early, and get the best selec-
ton.
SOME SPECIAL BARGAINS IN
SECOND HAND PIANOS AND OR
CANS.
We will not quote prices in this ar
ticle, as the stock is moving rapidly,
and you might be disappointed on
reaching the store, to find that the in
strument you had in mind, was already
sold but we will assure you that prices
will be lower than the same class Of
goods have ever been sold for in this
City, or ever will be again, and that
this is an opportunity you cannot af-
ford to miss. auW
We also have rubber tired buggy,
taken in a trade, for sale at very low
price.

ON A RISING SCALE.
Bulk of the Iron Selling is Now Being
Done.

Cleveland, o., March 13.-The Iron
Trade Review, in its current issue says:
The excitement that showed in the pig
iron market two and three weeks ago is
not in evidence now. The heavy buying
at that time put some producers out of
the market Others are doing out with
a sparing hand what iron they have for
shipment this year. 1t would appear
that on foundry iron the product is
more fully sold for 1902 than some re-
cent figures indicated, but buyers are
not stampeding the market to cover
their wants. The conditions are not al
together easy to diagnose, and the two
views of producers are still exemplifed
in selling policies-on the one hand a
conServatively maintained price; side
by side with it the policy of asking ad-
vances as the urgency of inquiries sug-
geStS. 1t is a fact, however. that the
bulk of the iron now being sold is on
rising scale of prices. How far con-
sumption would outrun productive ca
pacity if transportation troubles could
he ended is the problem whose solution
is most difficult. So far as the Pitts
burg district is cOncerned-and its in
huence on the situation is almost COM
manding-the prospects for early bet
ternent in the freight movement are
not encouraging.
Meantime prices are being affected,
and the holding down process is not
iron business in the central west are
purchasers of basic iron by the United

paid recently for Bessemer iron for

loose from this basis, however, on sales
outside of the associated furnaces,
high SIT and $3.50 at furnace being
paid for Bessemer iron, while for basic
some furnaces are holding for higher
figures later in the year The matter
of coke contracts for the second half
of the year is up with some furnaces,
and $2.25 has been paid for non-Con-

the basis for ConneIlsville will be S.. so

on at a steady price after the quiet in

factor in the business of the week, but

TAKEN OUT OF COURT.
Suit Against Frisco Road For Dam
ages is Dismissed.

Wichita. Kan, March 13.-Federal
Judge Hook virtually took the case of
Loren Caldwell against the Frisco rail-
road, out of the hands of the jury this
morning. He instructed the Jurors TO
bring in a verdict for the defendant.
The case was one of personal dam
ages against the railroad because young
Caldwell had been run over by Frisco
train and lost both legs in the accident
The attorneys for Caldwell asked $25-
600 damages.
1t was evident from the testimony of
the witnesses that the boy alone was
responsible for the accident If he had
kept away from the train he probably
would have been an able-bodied boy
today. Young Caldwell was the most
damaging witness in the case. He could
not tell a straight story and when cor
nered by the attorneys for the defense
could make just one answer and that
was cause
Why did you get on the tramp was
one of the last questions asked.

Because why?''
