The Grove Case ContInued.

The hearing in the case OF Granville w.
Barnes VS.. Frank II. Grove, adjourned
the 3Oth ult., was continued last Thurs
day before Justice II. w. Vail.
Mr.. Grove, charged with having found
Mr.. Barnes billbook on the depot plat
form the morning OF Oct. IL and with
having retained the same, had, at the first
hearing, pleaded not guilty TO the theft,
which the prosecution sought 10 estab-
lish, principally through the evidence Of
three school girls--Bessie Davenport,
Anna May Thresher and Hazel Ladd-
who testified that they saw him pick up
something on the depot platform which
Miss Davenport was positive was a black
bill book. She was quite clear as to the
shape, size and color OF the book, but the
other two girls, while they saw him pick
up something, could not state certainly
what il was.
In defence Mr.. Grove claimed that bis

TaIc on Woodward Farm.

What bids fair to prove valuable de-
posit OF tale has been uncovered on the
Russell Woodward farm in Bet bel Gilead
by the Eastern Talc company Of Granville,
which secured quarrying right in the
ledge two years ago.
The stone lies in q ridge on the east
side OF the farm in a meadow, which 1t
crosses from east to west, contrary TO the
usual direction of such rock formations,
which almost always run north and south.
The ledge, which does not appear to be
very wide, extends through the meadow
and lies deep In the soil OF an adjoining
pasture, where 1t crops out again on the
top of the hill. II undoubtedly extends
also into the land that Mr.. Woodward
sold to Nelson Bowen some time ago.
The Eastern Tale company began exca-
vations last June and uncovered half an
acre Of the ledge, in which was found the
finest quality OF tale. An opening pos
sibly ten or twelve feet deep, was made in
one place, while smaller excavations four
feet or moro in depth laid the rock bare to
inspection in other places. A carload Of
tale was taken out of the ledge and
shipped to the Granville mill to be
ground. Although this first carload WAS
Iht from Uoluk tu6 p6eb OF hno thtc ON the
Woodward farm, IL compared very favor
ably with the Granville tale and was, in
fact, superior to some of ii.
Quarrying operations have now been
suspended, but in the coming spring, the
Eastern Tale company proposes to install
suitable machinery at the Woodward
farm and resume operations ON a paying
scale.
Mr.. Woodward's discovery OF the treas
ure in his meadow came about through
visit from Thomas Clark of Rochester,
who had with him some OF the stone
which was then creating quite a stir In
Granville. Mr.. Woodward looked at the
specimens and remarked that 1t wasn't
necessary to go to Granville after that
kind of stone; for his farm right there in
Gilead was full OF it. A little investiga-
tion established the fact that he had in
deed pretty good mining proposition Of
his own, which the Eastern Tale company
was very willing to consider.

ness. Never try on anybody else's hat.

JOBS TOO FAR FROM LABORERS
No Money to Go from Congested
Centers to Places Where Work
IL to BE Had.

WASHINGTON, Feb, 7.-For lack of
funds of funds for transportation many
thousand aliens who today are living in
the congested sections of the country and
appeal for work are deprived of obtaining
renumerative employment, according to an
announcement made today. From al parts
of the country the cry comes for efficient
help, but the laborer In many instances
has not the means to go to the work.
An official of the Bureau of Information
of the Department of Commerce and Labor
said today that within the last ten weeks
1900 laborers could have been sent out
to different parts of the country IL they
had had the means to travel. Thousands
of applications are being received for work
from the unemployed. +
Some consideration has been given by Of
ficials of the department as to the wisdom
of legislation for solvtffsS the question.
One question that has been put forward
is that some fund be set aside by congress
for the use of the division on transporting
laborers, with the understanding that the
money shall be repaid. 1t is probable that
the matter soon will be presented to con-
gress for action.

STATEMENT ON OIL CUSTER
orney General of Missouri states
uodihcatiOn of Decree for
- Court TO Decide.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-. Feb. 7-Attorney
General Major, in a lengthy statement is
sued tonight relative to the motive for
modification of judgment of custer filed
by the Standard oil company, said he does
not deem 1t necessary to file any additional
replies with the supreme court to the sug-
gestions of the Standard OIL attorneys The
motion of the oil attorneys, he said, simply
asks for clemency in the modification of
the decree. The statement In part says
The proposed modification is not an
offer TO do business in partnership with
the state, but that the Judgment of custer
be modified and the matter be held in
abeyance and in the meantime permit the
company to do business under the eye of
the courts of the state. If the court de-
sired, II could, under the modification. pro-
ceed at any time to render judgment OF
final custer
Under the notifications as proposed the
state could control the price of the products
ana prevent the company from recouping
It's losses In fines from off of the people.
In the last analysis it presents a ques-
ton OF whether or not the welfare of the
state, its business and its citizens would be
benefited to an extent warranting a court
of chancery to undertake the supervision.
The interests of the Standard oil company
user is not matter of consideration. 1t
is procedure unique and new because
the conditions presented are unique and
new Should the modification be favorably
considered then 1t would in that event ask
that the fine be greatly increased.
These, however, are question purely FOR
the supreme court. 1t is for the court alone
to consider whether or not the modification
would protect the interests of the people
and the commonwealth better than the
Judgment of custer. Should the court modl-
the motion. the new corporation, Of course
would organize under the statutes
