by a jury today after deliberations
lasting but fifteen minutes
Mrs. Matson was indicted for muir
der in the second degree. Evidence
against her was purely circumstantial
and not of a conclusive nature.
She had made a statement to the
chief of police of Chisholm in which
she is alleged to have confessed that
she killed her husband but this was
ruled out of evidence on the ground
that the statement was made under
implied promises of immunity.

BURNS AND ROCHE READY.

Dublin. March 16.--Jem Roche the
champion heavyweight pugilist of
Ireland and Tommy Burns, now gen
orally recognized as the champion Of
America, are to fight twenty rounds
.cr less for the International champion
ship at the Theatre Royal in this city
tomorrow night. The match has
aroused intense interest in sportiEE
circles and seats are selling at al
most fabulous prices.
Both men are reported in the PINK
of condition. The unbroken line OF
victories won by Burns since he
crossed the Atlantic and the easy
manner in which he disposed of Gun
rpr Moir and the best heavgweights
row fighting in England has naturally
made his chances well thought of in
his match with Roche. But the Irish
tighter has a strong local following
who have shown an inclination to put
np some real money to back their
Judgment.
Roche is regarded as the best
fighter Ireland has produced in re-
cent years. He is a hard hitter and
extremely fast lie weighs 1874 pounds,
is five feet ten inches tall, and Is one
of the few fighters outside of America
who uses his feet when boxing. But
Burns outclasses Roche in one most
essential thing This is his greater
experience in thcaring and his thor
ough knowledge Of the scientific
FONTS of the fighting game. In the
opinion of most unbiased critics here
this excellence will win the fight for
the plucky American.

AS TO FRANCHISES.

Alderman Koehler struck a good
mite at the council meeting last week,
with his amendment to the Central
Union Telephone Company's franchise
fcrdiaance, providing that the company
| should pay per cent of its gross re
ceipts into the city treasury annu-
I ally, as the price CT the franchise. The
insurance companies pay neat bit
| OF tax into the city treasury under a
similar regulation and there is no good
treason why public service corpora
| lions generally should not yield up
something for the franchises they get.
But in addition to such provision
there should be another fixing maxi
mum rates for service to the people
| for without the latter provision, the
| tax imposed by the former would fall
upon the public; the company would
simply charge enough more for its in
struments to make up the tax.
However, Alderman Koehler was a
little late with his amendment. Such
an amendment, together with maxi.
mum rate limitation, should have beea
made also to the franchise ordinance
of the Home Telephone Company,
which was adopted. at the previous
meeting of the council. Then both
companies could have been put ON the
same footing bcfsre the people. 1t is
true. as was stated at the council
meeting, that the Homo Company
charges but little more than half what
the Central Union charges; its rat
|are very reasonable and its connec.
|tions are more numerous than the
Centrals. But twenty years is long
time. and there is no, telling what may
happen. 4 proper regard for the peo-
