DOG WINS OVER THE JURY
Makes Friends With Men in the Box
and Secures Verdict In His
Owners Favor.

Spokane, Wash.-Spot, big brown
bird dog owned by Robert Roddas,
accused of driving Beth, COW be-
longing to Byron A. Wilson, into a
barbed wire fence and causing it's
death, was acquitted by jury in the
Spokane County Superior Court,
where Judge William A. Huneke pre-
sided. The jurors were out eight min
utes.
The dog was a witness in its own
behalf over the objections of counsel
for Wilson and won instant favor by
it's behavior. When called Spot ad-
vanced to the jury box and extended
it's paw to each of the IL jurors in
turn and barked playfully until taken
out of the courtroom by the bailiff.
A dozen men and women also gave
testimony for and against the dog, but
as there were no eyewitnesses and the
evidence was purely circumstantial,
as Judge Huneke said in his charge,
the jury gave Spot the benefit of the
doubt and returned verdict of mot
guilty
Wilson, who sought SIS damages for
the killing of his cow, may appeal the
case to a higher court on technical
grounds.

ANSWER is GIVEN
TO CRAIG'S QUERY

Washington, May 1S.-(spscial.)-In re-
spect to the resolution Of Representative
Craig. passed by the House, the Attor-
ney General replies: II beg to say that
it is in my opinion not compatible with
the public interests to transmit to the
House the facts In the possession Of
this department upon which an investi-
cation concerning an alleged violation of
the act Of July 2, 1909, is now being con-
Quoted That investigation is taking place
with the aid of a grand jury, and the
proceedings are necessarily secret. Any
public statement at the present time of
the facts on which the investigation was
commenced or adduced in the course of
its progress would, In my opinion, be
utterly incompatible with the proper and
effective prosecution of the inquiry.
Answering the latter part of the reso-
luton above referred to, viz Whether
any such investigation or prosecution by
the United States was ever begun against
any persons or combinations of persons
charging them with violation of said
act in Illegally combining or conspiring
to advance the price Of wheat in May
and July of the year 1909. or in obtaining
a monopoly Of the supply of wheat In the
United States during the said two
months beg to say that, SO far as 7

Newark, N. J., May i8.-Three Unit

preached the gospel back to the con-
stitution here tonight at a meeting
in Kreuger auditorium, held under the
auspices of the democratic union Of
New Jersey.
The meeting was arranged by leaders
of the union as the beginning or
movement which they hope will assume
a national aspect demanding a return
to government in accordance with
stricter Interpretation of the constitu-
ton and opposed to the so-called spe-
cial interests.
The speakers were Senators Joseph
w. Bailey of Texas, Joseph F. Johnston
of Alabama, and William E. Purcell of
North Dakota.
Senator Bailey predicted future DEM
ocratic success and urged New Jer-
sew to make up in the next 10 years
for the mistakes of the last IL years.

PLANS ARE FORMING TO
RECEIVE ROOSEVELT

New York, May 1S.-Simple and dig
nified is to be Theodore Roosevelt's $
welcome in New York, June IS. At
least that is the desire of the recep-
t1on committee. Contrary to general
land parade.
The Rough Riders are the chosen
few who will line up with Colonel
Roosevelts carriage. Aside from them
there will be only squad of mounted
police, a police band, and the recep-
tion committee in carriages. The COM
mittee thus explained the situation to-
night:
1T is believed the proceedings should
be simple and dignified in order TO
permit the largest number of people to
participate. In view of the great num-
Der of requests from various organi
cations and distinguished representa-
tives throughout the country to Join in
land procession of some kind the
committee has concluded it would be
impracticable to accommodate them all
and has therefore decided to eliminate
that portion of the original programme
which provides for a general land pa
rade and instead to give such repre-
,sentatives positions along Fifth ave-
ue from which they will have ample
'portunity to see former President
osevelt as he passes up the avenue
ompanied by his escort
The reception will be national in
aracter an dentirely free from ques-
-ons relating to politics, creed or
race"
The naval part of the programme
will be carried out as previously ar
ranged.

Domestic Education
For Girls Is Favored
By the Manufacturers

New York, May 1S.-John Kirby of Day
ton. o., was reelected president of the
National Association of Manufacturers
today and the body finally adjourned.
The annual banquet was held at the
Waldorf-Astoria tonight. The association
will meet in New York again next year.
A bit of sentiment was infused into the
closing hours of the convention with the
adoption of the report of the committee
on Industrial education. After dwelling
on the necessity of trade schools for boys
the report says of girls:
"Since most women who engage in
industries, as well as others,
are at least potentially wives and moth
ers, training for housekeeping and home
management Is believed to be an essen
tial part of all their education, whether
part that has been woefully neglected
in our school system.
TT is, therefore, our duty to make
special effort to bring domestic education
to the front and do everything possible
to place 1t on a higher plane
"A high standard of skilful and expert
knowledge of housekeeping in all It's
bra Anches and details is of such far-reach-
ing effect upon the industrial future of
any community that every effort should
be made to shape public opinion toward a
true appreciation of it's Importance and
dignity
women and girls are employed in me-
chanical occupations connected with
nearly every industry in the land, and
these occupations of women are not only
affecting industry but the standard of
womanhood, and the home. It is, there
fore, of the utmost Importance that young
girls who must work in shops and fac
tories for a while shall be trained for oc
cupations which do not prevent develop

Fearful Explosion IN
Cuban City Destroys

Havana, May 1S.-Two almost simulta-
neous explosions of dynamite, supposed to
consist of 5000 pounds, completely demol-
ished the Rural Guard barracks in the
city of Pinar del Rio this afternoon.
Fully a hundred persons were killed
and nearly as many were wounded. Most
of the dead were rural guards, but tho

1t is not known yet what caused the
explosion or If 1t was due to an acci-
dent or due to an act of conspirators,
but the former hypothesis is considered
the more tenable.
Several relief trains, carrying surgeons,
government officials, started this after
noon from Havana to the scene of the
catastrophe, which is los miles distant.
The names of the dead have not yet
been reported, with the possible exception
of Capt. Alfredo Ravena and Capt. Gas

families, who are believed to be buried
In the ruins of the officers quarters ad-
jacent to the barracks.
The barracks was a massive building
of Spanish construction and occupied a
site to the outskirts of the city to the
north.
During the late intervention it was
the headquarters of Colonel Parkers reg
iment, the Eleventh cavalry. Adjacent
to the barracks was a long row of Off
GERS quarters
Recently the barracks was occupied by
the public works department, and four
troops of rural cavalry occupied 1t. In
consequence of the alarm over race dis
turbances the government ordered all
