Nfddletown, Conn, Jan. 16.-The explosion OF
a lamp here last week. which resulted in the
death of little girl. has led to an investiga-
ton by the States Attorney and coroner which,
it is said. shows that the kerosene oil brought
here is chemically unsafe and does not meet

the explosion the coroner asked Professor w.

an analysis of a specimen Of the oil used IN
the lamp which exploded. The flash point OF
this oil was found to be 81 degrees Fahrenheit
while the State law says that 1t shall not BE
less than 10 degrees. OIL with flash point
below 10 degrees is highly explosive and un-

SLUMP IN PRICE OF EGGS.
Mild Weather and Large Receipts Bring
Best Down to 80 Cents.

Since the last of December the wholesale price OF
prime Western fresh eggs has dropped from 80
cents dozen to q cents This IS said to be due to
the springlike surroundings in the South and
Southwest resulting in q large increase in the pro-
duction. Since January the receipts in the whole
sale market have almost doubled, and as the de-
mand has been restricted by high prices, heavy
accumulation is the result.
At the same time it is estimated that there. are
about $4,000 of thirty dozen each of refrig-
orator eggs which were held for high prices by
dealers in New-York, Chicago, Philadelphia and
Boston, being urged for sale at from 10 to 1S1a
cents.
Good fresh eggs ought to be selling at % cents
now, and the best at 30 cents.

Ask less for help, but stand or fall.

Under Provisions Of the Burk

It is possible now for an Indian
to get a patent to his land and be en-
tirely free to dispose Of 1t as is any
other citizen and freeholder in the
United States. This is under the
provisions Of the Burk bill passed
at the last session Of congress and in

July. Any allotted Indian can make
application to the secretary Of the in
terror and on making the proper
showing as to his capabilities will be
granted a patent for his lands and all
restrictions removed that now apply
to the management Of the business Of
leasing and holding lands.

Re commended that the contract made
with the New York Central ~ Lowell

We're granted, could no; be legally held
to be binding criminally upon the de-
PENDANT. Judge Holt observed that In
his opinion Mr.. Palmer could. under the
interstate commerce act, which was su-
perccdc! by the Elkins law. have been
tried and convicted for soliciting the
rebates. Under the former enactment.
he would have, upon conviction, been
imprisoned, said Judge Holt. while un-
dor the Elkins law 4 fine only could
nave been imposed.
Mr. Mcllvaine again raised the point
that the actual commission of the
crime alleged was III the Transports
ton OF the goods and not in the pay
mcnt of the rebates, the latter having
occurred ut 4 period subsequent 10 the
enactment Of the EIkins law. ana The
transportation completed prior to its
passage. He insisted that it was no
