TRIces GETS A VERDICT.
Nominal Damages for Professor il
Suit Against New York Sun.

Nominal Damages for Professor in
Suit Against New York Sun.
New York, May 9.-!The jury in the
suit of Professor Oscar L. Triggs
against the Sun Of this city for libel
returned sealed verdict this morn
ing allowing cents damages to the
plaintiff. Professor Triggs' counsel
requested that the jury be polled, with
the result that the foreman and three
other Jurors said the verdict did not
correctly represent their views. mas
much as they supposed when they
consented to it that nominal verdict
carried with it the costs of the action.
Colonel Franklin Bartlett, counsel
for the Sun, after a conference with
the professors attorney, informed the
court that counsel on both sides con-
scented to a reconsideration of the YER
dict in order to permit the jury to rec
tify the misunderstanding of the law
of part of their number. In few
minutes the jury returned with YER
dict of $50 in favor of Professor Triggs
which carries with it costs sufficient
to meet the expenses Of the trial, not
including counsel fees.
Professor Triggs formerly was con-
nected with the University of Chica-
go in the English department. The
New York Sun contained, during the
years 1901. 1902 and 1903 several hui
morous and satirical editorials, based,
according to evidence introduced at
the trial, on Chicago newspaper arti-
cles. In these editorials Professor
Triggs was accused Of ''swatting"
Longfellow and Whittier, and Of hav-
ing advocated the use of slang. Pro-
fessor Triggs, in his complaint, claim
ed that the publication of these edl-
torials had damaged his reputation as
a teacher and occasioned his enforced
resignation from the faculty Of the
University of Chicago.

New Orleans, Lr., May 9.-United
States Minister Leslie Combs returned
yesterday afternoon from Guatemala.
He tells the inside history Of the re-
ported assassination of President
Cabrera about week ago. The story,

opera bouffe features which character
ize many Central American affairs.
Minister Combs says that President
Cabrera is in constant fear of assassi-
nation and goes armed with a number
OF heavy revolvers. About two weeks
ago, according to the story told by
Mr.. Combs, the president of the re-
public was repairing to retire. He neg
lectetl to remove the revolvers from his
pockets before taking off his trousers.
One Of the guns dropped from the
pocket and exploded.
The bullet struck the president, who
for several days refused himself to all
callers and seemed much chagrined at
his most unfortunate accident. The
bullet made deep cut.

LOCAL OPTION KILLED AT CLOSE
Attempts to Compromise Differences
of Two Houses Fail.

Springfield, ILL.,, May Sup to the
last hour of the forty-fourth general
assembly, the house and senate wrang-
led over local option legislation. The
senate would not recede from it's po-

Comprehensive" measure continuing
the county feature, and the house in
sisted that it's compromise measure
providing for local option in cities and
villages was as far as it would go.
Leaders Of the senate finally are said
to have proposed to the house leaders
that the ward feature be eliminated
from the house bill, but the house re-
fused, SO that both bills died untimely
deaths, the senate having refused to
concur in the house amendments to it's
original measure.
