Chicago, March 18.-A dramatic

eve been a bad man, but years
from now you'll hear of me as an
honest citizen" Mann said, in thank
ing the jury. Tears were running
down his checks, and his sobs made
it almost impossible for him to speak.
1--WE know you were innocent,
said a juror, the unabasled tears
flowing freely.
Other jurors furtively applied
handkerchiefs to their eyes as Mann
ran to his mother, throwing his arms
about her neck and crying like a
child.
9 Women, who have been constant
attendants at the trial, were weep
ing, and all trying to talk at once;
mobs rushed to the attorney who de-
tended Mann. Several of them tried
to kiss him, and it is said some of
them succeeded before he made his
escape. Meanwhile the bailiff was
for order, to which nobody
paid any attention. 4

have, consideration Of the tariff bill
when 1t leaves the house, is prac-
tically assured, and as member of
this committee, he should be able to
bring powerful influence against the
drawback. .
4 Senator Hansbrougn said he had
made only q hurried examination Of
the bill. He was interested chiefly
in the drawback section. He says the
bill as introduced in the house af-
fords NO protection whatever to the
producers OF wheat. It will be re-
,membered that Senator McCumber
and, former Secretary Shaw had a
heated controversy on this subject
in 1904, the secretary having render
ed a decision which practically put
wheat on the free list. Senator Nc
Cumber secured a reversal of this
decision to the senate, but the house
would not agree. "The, drawback
clause in this new bill" says Sen
ator McCumber, "goes further than
the Shaw decision. Under the exist,
ing law on imported material mixed
with a like domestic material and
used in an article Of export must
be separately distinguishable in the
manufactured product, which cannot
be done in the case Of -four. The new
bill provides that imported material
may be ascertained, leaving with the
administrative officer the medium Of
assortment. This is precisely what
the Shaw decision amounted to. +
did not succeed, in the last campaign,
in making the farmers understand
the situation They will eventually
learn to understand it, especially II
the new measure is not properly
named"
