Edith bowed and returned to her seat
by Mrs Angler. In one sense the ordeal
had done her good, for the scornfu1 in
dignation excited by the Coroner's
masked battery of innuendo was a far
healthier emotion than the chilling fear
which had possessed her before Her
Indignation was nothing, however, to
that of Lester, who had more than once
endeavored to estimate what would be
the penalty of throwing his majesty's
representative out of the window.
The remaining evidence was of little
Importance After Mrs Warren and
Angler had Endorsed the statements of
previous witnesses, the Coroner pro-
ceeded to sum up.
You will have judged from the evil
dence, gentlemen" he said, that this
is either a very simple or very mys-
ferrous case The most extraordinary
feature is undoubtedly Lord Arnchffe's
assertion that he was being poisoned; and
you will no doubt give that point full
consideration. If his mental condition
was normal when he made that statement,
then it is clear that he has been the
victim of foul play; but on the other
hand if his mind was impaired by his
long illness, we should be justified in
assuming that he knew he was being
poisoned, for the very good reason that
the poison was se1f-administered. In this
connection | should ike to remind you
that two of the highest authorities are
unable to say what form of arsenic was
used; so it seems evident the poisoner
was no ordinary person. Here again,
one cannot but recall Lord Arncliffe's
intimate knowledge of poisons. How
ever, | do not think there is sufficient
evidence to justify us in assuming the
deceased to have been insane, and with
out that assumption we cannot entertain
the idea of suicide.
IF we consider the possibility that
murder has been committed, the ques-
ton of motive naturally suggests itself.
The members of the household seem to
have been devoted to their master, as,
indeed, they had every reason to be- Mrs.
Warren, Miss Holt
Another note had found it's way
mysterious1y to the Coroner's desk, and
he paused to read it. Then he looked
up at the jury.
There is an entirely unexpected
development, gentlemen" he said "A
fresh witness has just arrived from New
York, and l am informed that his evil
dence is of the highest importance"

Sioux City Stock Yards, Sioux City,
Iowa, April 1.-The marketing of cattle
for the first half of the week showed a
gain of 600 head over last, but with
falling off in supplies on subsequent
days the total receipts for the week
fall short of last by 500 cattle. The
shortage was due entirely to the lighter
marketing of stockers, while the xii Ter
supply was right up with last week s
marketing. The opening trade in
stocker cattle was generally 10c higher
than last week s close, but prices ruled
on basis of l0c to l5c lower than the
high point of Monday of last week.
Good stockers and long yearhngss were we're
there was liberal supply of light steers
and it was on this class of cattle that
the decline was largely felt. On We'd
nesday country demand fell off and the
dealers demanded concessions and trade
ruled dull with prices l5c to 25c lower
than Monday. The market closes with
sales 25c to 4Oc lower than the high
time of last week. Good stockers sold
up to $3.50 to 50 and the best of the
strong weight yearlings at $3.45 to
1915. Big strings of fairly good quail
ity light yearlings sold at So to $40:
The common to just fair steers Of all
weights sold at $3.50 to So. Demand
was light for stock heifers at prices
ranging from So to $2.75 and prices
showed about the same decline as the
steers late in the week, while there
were sales up to So last Monday. A
light marketing is generally predicted
for the coming week, which may result
in better values being realized.
The fat cattle market has been in the
very best Of condition, and with brisk
demand values have been upward, clos
ing the week 35c higher than last

the strictly good short fed cattle sold at

PRICES DOWNWARD.
Eggs Hold to Active and Steady Basis
Cheese List Shows Advances
Poultry Weakens Trihe Under In

Fruit Movement Shows Increase.

Evidently some of the eastern mar
kets are feeling the influence of an in.
creased production. The decline OF 2
cents per pound on creamery extras

came as a surprise to great many
interested in butter. While believing
values relatively too high for the sea-
grounds for believing that the great
American COW was making any more
butter than ten days ago. Speaking
of the local market strictly, the supply
was not excessive, and dealers were
securing current quotations quite easily.
The decline here has not been as wide
as in the east, and unless supplies come
much more freely values are likely to
show a slight brace. Should the make

Immense Ore Bodies

The Kawich Mountain range, 20
miles east of Goldfeld, on the same
stretch of mountainous desert as Gold
field, has been the scene of more great
gold strikes, within three months, than
any other mining district in the United
States. Ore assaying from 800 to
$4,000 per ton has been brought from
Kawich into Goldfeld, and stampede
for the Kawich district has resulted.
Chunks of ore have been brought from
the district that are literally alive with
gold.
The Kawich Gold Mining Co. is the
sole owner of 200 acres right in the
midst of the territory where these,
great discoveries have been made.
1t owns ten claims. They are To-
Gated on the west slope of Kawich
mountain, and were discovered at the
same time as the original discoveries
were made on the east slope.
There is at least one gold-bearing
ledge on every one of the ten claims
Of the Kawich Gold Mining Co.
Assays made from ore samples taken
from Lodges on the property show the
existence of some of the highest grade
ore that has been uncovered in Nevada
during the past five years.
Although the company has only been
in existence a few weeks, 500 miners
have been dispatched to the scene and
are now busy sinking shafts and other
wise developing the property into what
gives signs of becoming one of the
uraatest nroducers Nevada ever saw

BADGERS MAY NOT COME
Legislative Excursion to Minnesot
May Be Abandoned.

MADISON, WIS.-The legislature
has adjourned until Wednesday after
noon. So far nothing further has
been done with regard to legislative
excursion to St. Paul, and it may be
abandoned entirely. Some Of the mem
bers regard it as a trick to force them
to indorse the Cass Gilbert plans for
new capitol, and are therefore ex-
tremely shy.
There is much dissatisfaction over the
rate bill reported to the assembly
Thursday night, and the senate will con-
slider another, that may lead to a clash
and help prolong the session.
The $750,000 which Wisconsin recent
ly collected from the general govern
ment, and which everybody supposed
would be repaid to the trust funds from
which it was borrowed, seems likely to
be used for current expenses in the gen
eral fund.
A resolution is in to have the fund
divided among the trust funds, but it
is intimated this will be killed by the
friends of the administration, which de-
sires to use the money in lieu Of a
state tax being levied for current ex-
penses Of the two,XeaE period

The Milwaukee Extension.

The street did not like the increasing amount
of attention paid to the reported plans of st.
Paul to extend its own lines to the coast. The
origin Of the story goes back four years to an
authorized stock increase Of the amount of
SIS, DOC, 900, which increase was never carried
out. The directors still have the authority, and
brokers believe that the recrudescence of in
terest in the matter sin the most conservative
quarters does not exactly indicate that all is har
mory in the western railroad situation. 1t is
supposed that the st. Paul directors failed to
get what they wanted in the negotiations for
settlement of the Northern Securities situation,
and that the issuance Of new stock for the pur-
pose of building the new road would be a
declaration Of war. Thus all the carefully-tuned
harmones which the Northern Securities COM
pany maintained long it had legal exist
ence would give way to discord. Whether the
relatively wide movements of such issues as
Union Pacific, Northern Securities, Northwest
Nern and st. Paul directly due to the man
euvering for position Of the various parties in
volved may we'll be doubted, but the fact re-
mains that this is about the only section Of
the list in which lively interest be main
tanned. The one thing that the street would
welcome than any other is some authori-
tative information on the state Of affairs that
is to follow the liquidation Of the Northern
Securities company. s. s. Schroff
