Statistics in this connection, however.
proved misleading, fot the manufact-
nures succeeded in getting along with
OaRt what was thought to be their
nual requirements. 1t may be they
found cheaper substitute, but it is
more than likely that the trade has
over estimated the demand.
Some 400 tons of bark of various
ages are held by dealers and specula-
tors and the supply bids fair to be
further increased this year. Advices
from different points in the cascara
saPrada sections are that preparations
are being made TO peel larger quan-
tity than was brought out last year.
owing to the fact that labor is more
plentiful, but it will, without doubt,
prove an Improbable harvest for the
peelers.

NOT YET BEFORE MAYOR
Martin Likely to Use Full Time on
 Voting Machines.

The bill calling for the purchase of voting machines for this city which the aldermen passed Monday night did not go to tho mayor yesterday When asked regarding the matter the mayor staed that 1t had not come to him yet and he would of course say nothing about 1t until 1t did. He did say how ever that he would exercise no haste in acting on the matter which is taken to mean that he will take his full ten days before making up his mind on the matter
 In some quarters the idea prevails that the mayor may not sign the bill but instead will allow 1t to become law by the lapse Of time without any &C., ton on his part, Whether this is so or not only the action on the bill will de- termine. The vote in the board Mon day night lacked just one of a two- thirds of the entire body for the ma chimes and 1t is claimed by those in- terested that in the event of the mayor
 vetoing the measure 1t could probably be carried Just the same. Of course there might be a change of some of the votes If the mayors veto were to be sustained or defeated which would change the face of the situation.

FARMER TRIAL
Defense Pleads Unsuitable Homicide
 and Insanity.

Watertown. N, Y., June 16.-The prosecution in the case against Mary Farmer, charged with the murder of Sarah Brennan, whose mutilated body was found last April, packed In q trunk In her. own home, rested to- day with the presentation of the tes- tImony of two physicians that Mrs Brennan met her death from blows on the head.
 The lines of defense, indicated in the opening address were justitiable homicide and insanity. The defense attempted to prove that Mrs. Brennan had deeded her property to the de- fendant and her husband because she feared q slander suit but the court ruled this out as heresay. Several witnesses were sworn on the question of the defendants mental capacity. The authorities believe the case will be in the jurys hands Saturday
