RE.TR|AL IF THE STANDARD Judge Anderson QuaShed the
 PaneIOf Farmer JuPymen COINCIDENCE OR DESIGN
One or the Other Brought In 15O Men All But Three of Whom Were From the Country--A Fair Start Wanted.

Chicago, Feb. 23-The re-trial of the Standard oil company of Indiana was unexpectedly delayed today when quashed the panel of 15O veniremen because of the large proportion of farmers among those summoned
 Tt was a farmers jury which brought in the verdict making Judge Landis' fine of $29,240,O0O in the orig inal case possible" Attorney John S. Miller. of the defense promptly re- minded the court that the panel counting showed but three Chicago ians." It looks like design, or a strange co-incidence,'' commented Judge Anderson.
 T don't want to start in this hear ing feeling that there is something not quite fair. I think this pant ought to be set aside. I will instruct the jury commission to put in 15O names. of men, a good proportion of whom shall be good business men from Chicago and Cook county. This case is tried in a district composed of an enormous commercial city and several rural counties The country may have purer air, higher moral standards and greater intelligence than the city, but that is an open question. However I am not going outside the issue when I say that if the jury was composed partly of business men, who would realize the great industrial and commercial phase of the case, a more satisfactory and just verdict may be reached"
 Judge Anderson said he would hear argument of counsel tomorrow as to whether shipments or settlements of freight charges constituted the of fense. There were, it is charged thirty-siX settlements of freight charges in certain shipments made by the Standard oil company. Accept ing this view, a maximum fine of S720.0OO is possible.

The Anti Gambling Business

It was like a voice from the grave when substitute for Council Bill No 10 came up in the council in thu committee of the whole in the after noon- Council Bill 10 is the Day bill of which the Duffy bill, already a law is an exact copy. Before the Duffy bill had been brought into the council a committee had prepared this substitute as a modification of the rigors of the Day bill. It was much less stringent. It allowed sporting gentlemen to spit at a mark, did not regard whist parties as felonies and did not specifically interdict little quiet games among gentlemen.
 When the substitute made it's ap- pearance yesterday it was thought at first to be a formal proceeding pre- liminary to its indefinite postpone ment. But Mir. Hampton had another mission in view. He wanted it sent after the Duffy law in the hope that it would overtake it and render it void.
 The Horticultural Bill
 This measure which has slumbered in the committee since early in the session was taken up in the commit tee of the whole and was agreed to section by section until that one was reached apprOpriating $3000 for car rying out the purposes of the bill, to protect the horticultural interests against insect pests such as the San Jose and various other kinds of de- structive scales.
 Here MT. Breen baked. He said that it seemed to have been the adopted policy of the legislature to let every county stand on it's own bottom. He instanced the repeal of the ranger law and the public ex- aminer law. Coconino county had none of these scales to combat; en- had discovered nothing there more deadly than avoirdupOis scales, apothecaries' scale and the scales of justice. Why, he asked, should Coconino contribute to the expense of fighting the red scale, the black scale and all the other rainbow hued scales?
 MT. Breen's objection was futile and the section was adopted. Later, after a favorable report on the bill, It was taken up under suspension sf the rules and was passed.

STORMY WEATHER.
1t Greeted the Homecoming of the
 Fleet.

Fort Monroe, Feb. 23-The bad weather which greeted the battleship fleet off Virginia Caps yesterday, the worst the ships have experienced in any port on their way around the world, continued today. Storm signals were hOisted on the beach and during the afternoon a stiff southeaster set in. The ships paid little attention to the blow, but the launches were buf- feted about freely.
 That part of the roadstead west of old Point Pier seemed fairly choked with fighting craft today. The two long lines of the combined squadrons of Admiral Arnold stretched away from the dock almost as far as the eye could reach, the gray ships of the stay-at- home fleet fading away in the mist overspreading the harbor. Near ly one-half of the ships began coaling despite the weather. It is hoped the ships will have been coaled by Satur- day in order that the men may parade in Norfolk on that day.
 A committee from Norfolk visited the flagship Connecticut today to extend an invitation to the fleet to be the city's guest on Saturday, but Admiral Sperry had gone to Rich mond. There is little doubt the Nor folk invitation will be accepted, and several thousand men will be sent to parade. This will be the first home short leave. They are kept aboard ship in anticipation of inspection by Admiral Sperry The battleship Yer mont of the first division is yet in quarantine. A case of smallpox de- veloped on board.
 One of the most interesting sights today was the departure of a large number of enlisted men whose terms

Il Was ubera|Iy Given In Old
 Confederate Capital WELCOMED IN RICHMOND
The First Shore Demonstra- ton Given to the Officers and Men of the World Girdling Fleet Was One Never to Be Forgotten.

Richmond, Feb. 23.-The southland paid homage today to the globe girdling fleet in the old capital of the confederacy
 We welcome you to the hearts of a people who yield to no one in devotion to the American navy, or in loyalty to our flag" Was the sentiment expressed at a luncheon by Mayor Richardson, in welcoming Rear Admiral Sperry, Rear Admiral Wainwright and 54 officers. The luncheons at which men of all walks of civil life and all ages and of un- yielding loyalty to the cause of Lee and Jefferson Davis, fraternized with the fighting men of the navy, was given by the Richmond chamber of commerce. Admiral Sperry received an ovation. He referred to his first separate welcome since We have re- turned to our shores" He said he had not read his official mail since arriving on the American side and smilingly added: T don't know where the secretary of the navy is, and what is more, I don't care"
 The admiral pointed out that the voyage around the world was no junket While we have been en- circling the globe" he said, i've doubled the score of last years tar get practice. The fleets efficiency has inereased 25 per cent by economy of coal consumption, due to the hard and faithful work of the men below decks. When a contest comes the navy must know how to get there and how to stay there when it gets there
 Now the world is governed by the people, for it is not sufficient that a solitary arbitrary ruler should know the paper possibilities of contest questions at issue under constitutional forms when in all the world today, even in Russia, public sentiment may force a ruler into war or keep him out of it Since the people generally are only impressed by what they see it is necessary, if you require the peace of the world show your fleet"
 Congressman Lamb of Virginia de- clared if Virginia had had a dozen Merrimacs instead of one, fifty years ago. we should have had peace instead of four years of bloody struggle"
 Rear Admiral Wainwright, in his ad- dress, bowed to the gallery and re- marked, I've can all shoot straight CT, fight better when we are remem- bered by the girls at home"

AMONG THE CHICKS

Avoid feeding the little chicks until
AS hours old. 1t is hard to resist the
vociferous demands for something, but
it is great deal easier than to check
the inroads of indigestion few days
later.
Give fresh water and grit before
food, and let the first meal be not more
than they will pick up in five minutes,
including the learning how to eat
Five times a day for meals, and five
minutes at meal, should be the rule
for the first two weeks. Then lessen
to four and soon to three meals daily.
Clean the feeding board after every
meal and if milk is given the dish
must be cleaned and scalded daily.
Charcoal kept in the drinking water
will help to ward off Indigestion.
Sunshine is good medicine, but if it
is excessively hot some shade should
also be provided. The chicks will read
lily adjust themselves to the proper
| temperature if given a chance.

lions set some child to cutting the top!
