The witness said American manufac-

obliged to pay the maximum tariff in
France, while British manufacturers
enjoy the benefit of it's minimum tariff.
Mr.. Metcalf disagreed with the tes-

He declared the prices of these raw

Then he imagined that he saw masked

Taylor realized that he was suffering
from delusions, but his experiences had
been so frlghtful that he could not con-
troll his feelings or dlspel the hallu-

He hid in the canebrake until
Wednesday, when thirst drove him out
and into the arms of his friends.
Just before the night riders killed
Rankin, Taylor said:

BY killing me you will not be cheating
me of much. But Captain Rankin is a
young man with many years before
him. Do not XIII him."
The leader CURLY replied: "Shut up"
The aged witness made a most pro-
found impression At times his emo
tion mastered him, and once he half
turned, dropped his head into his hands
and sobbed audibly as the scenes of
that awful night passed again before
his eyes.
The old man was asked only one
question on cross-examination.
did you recognize any of the riders
positively the night of the crime?"
He said he did not.

Measure and Neglects to Pro-

Lost

LONDON, Dec. 1s.-The bill provid-
ing for an eight-hour day In coal
mines, which in process of amendment
became actually a measure for a day
of nine hours, was finally adopted by
the house of lords today. 1t goes into
effect July 1, 1909.
The bill originally contemplated eight
hours from surface to surface. but its
opponents eliminated the time occupied
in descending and ascending from the
workings and calculated half an hour
for each.
The result is that eight full hours
must be spent in actual labor below
