NEW TRlALON TECHNICALLY
DECISION OF SUPREME COURT ON KANSAS SENATOR'S APPEAL.

Finding of District Court Reversed on
 the Ground That Payments to Burton
 Were Made in WashingtOn-sufiicie
 Evidence of GuiIt for the Case to be
 Submitted to . Juty.
 Washington, Jan. l6.-The case of Senator J. R. Burtbn was decided by the supreme court the United States to-day, dismissing the writ of certioraIi to the circuit cour1 of appeals for the Eighth circuit and Reversing the verdict of the district court for the eastern dis trict of Missouri on the ground that the payments to Burton were made in Washington. The district court was, therefore, reversed and the case re- manded for new trial.
 The opinion was handed down by Justice Peckham, who took up the va rious counts and recited the conclusions as well as the divisions Of the court as follows: ,..-:r
 'First-The question of the construc- tiop of the statute upon which this in dictment was framed is the first to arise. Upon that question majority of the court (Justice Harlan, Justice Brown, Justice McKenna, Justice Day and Justice Holmes concurring) are of opinion that the facts alleged in the in- dictment show case that is. covered by the provisions of the statute, while the chief justice. Justice Brewer, Jus tice White and the writer of this opin- ion dissent from that view. and are of opinion that the statute does not cover | the case as alleged in the indictment.
 "TWo-Assuming that the statute ap- | plies to the facts stated in the indict- ment a further question arises upon 1 the general merits of the case, whether l there was sufficient evidence of guilt to be submitted to the jury, and a major ] ity of the court (the same justices con- ] curring) are of opinion that there was 1 or. are not prepared to say there was not, and the same minority dissent from that view and are of opinion that there was no evidence whatever upon which to found a verdict of conviction" i"

No More Large Guns.

The ordnance experts of the United
States army are said to have practi-
cally decided that the 16-inch gun.
from which so much was expected. is
not practicable as a weapon. and q
decision by the war department to
abandon the type is anticipated.
Only one of these guns has been
made, and 1t Is at Sandy Hook.
Colonel Greer, chief of ordnance of
the department of the East, said:
"The gun was ordered about seven
years ago. when it was decided to in
crease the callber of our largest weap-
on for coast defense from 12 to Is
inches. At that time England was
having a number of such guns made
and great +hings were predicted for
them. All Of the English guns were
failures. Ours has been fired per-
haps half dozen times in proving It.
In one way it was a success, as 1t has
done all that was predicted for 1t in
range and effectiveness. There is nc
doubt of the result If 1t ever hit any
thing. On the other hand. however
every discharge of the gun Is tremen
dously costly in the amount of labor
required and in the expense Of the
charge The gun is little more likely
perhaps to miss the target than q
smaller gun, and miss Is pretty cost
ly."
The government had planned t.
build 40 such guns-1S to be placed
at Sandy Hook. 10 at San Francisco
eight at Boston and four at Hampton
Roads. The great point made for the
gun was that it's projectile would sink

about 81 miles. The projectile cost

Carrying lightly her sixty odd
years, vigorous, enthusiastic, full of
fight and determined yet to win the
battle for woman's suffrage. Mrs. A.
c. Wait, the first active president of
the Kansas Equal Suffrage associa-
tion and organizer of the first local
equal suffrage society in the great
Kansas campaign which resulted in
securing municipal suffrage for wo-
man in that state in 1887, talks en-
tertainingly of the general world
movement for the enfranchisement
of women.
Mrs. Wait left this morning for
Portland to attend the National Suf-
frage association, after a few days
visit with her son, A. H. Wait, of the
East Oregonian's telegraphic news
department. She is a delegate from
Kansas, her home being in Lincoln
She is also a member of the national
executive committee and has attend
ed several national conventions of the
association as well as of the National
w. c. T. u, of which she is also an
active and aggressive member.
She also assisted in the orGaniza-
ton of the International Council of
Women at Washington, d. c., in 1885,
this organization now being world
wide in it's scope and effort. the last
general council being held in Berlin
last year.
81 only hope said Mrs. Wait, to
the East Oregonian, that the veter
ans in this war for woman's enfran-
chisement live to see the fruition of
their toll and struggles. 1t seems
pity that such noble and self-sacri-
ficing women as Miss Susan B. An
thony. Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway
and hundreds of others 1 could name,
should pass away before the full fru-
ition and glory of their life work
should bloom for mankind-or wo-
mankind.
But the movement is bearing fruit.
From hundreds of outposts all along
the line come encouraging reports.
Here a step and there step the slow
progress is being made. Four of your
young, virile, vigorous western states
Colorado, Wyoming, Utah and
Idaho-have arisen to their full man
hood and bestowed the ballot upon
mothers, wives and daughters. Will
Oregon do as much? Are you ready
to give the women their birthright
here?"
In 1885 Mrs. Wait was elected pres
ident of the State Equal Suffrage as
sociation of Kansas and served three
years She was the leader in the
movement that gave Kansas women
the right to vote in all municipal
electionse, a right they still enjoy,
and has been continuously member
of the Kansas state executive COM
mittee for 21 years.
She anticipates the Portland meet
ing with much pleasure as all the
leading spirits in the movement are
present at that meeting, having been
especially invited by the Lewis and
Clark fair management to visit Port
land this year.
Owing to the fair and the excellent
opportunity to see the northwest and
west at it's best, the attendance from
the eastern states will be very heavy.
While Kansas was entitled to "a
delegates, but four will be in attend
ance: Mrs. Sadie P. Grisham, Mrs. E.
F. Hopkins, Mrs. Bina A. Otis and
Mrs. Wait.
She expects to return home by way
of California, visiting relatives en-
route.
