MORE GRlST FROM
CRIMINAL COURT
FIVE CASES DISPOSED OF BY
JUDGE M'kNIGHT BY THE
JURY ROUTE.

The mills of justice grind slowly,
but nevertheless surely. The day of
the malefactor comes at last and hard
is his way when he comes before
Judge Meningitis court for bootleg
ging, carrying pistols, or the various
other misdemeanors upon the statute
books.
In the past day or so Judge Nc
knight has tried the following cases:
Grigg Holt, charged with carrying
weajons, was found guilty by the jury
and was given the usual sentence, six
months on the county road and $50 in
fines. The case of Ben Anderson, who
was up on the same charge, was
nolled upon the payment of costs.
Sam Sanders was found guilty of sell
ing liquor without license and was
sent to serve term of six months on
the road and fined $50. Noah Cazart,
alleged to be guilty of profanity, was
turned loose upon the payment of the
costs in his case.
There was one mistrial, very I'M
usual thing these days in the criminal
court. George Jackson, up on the
charge of carrying weapons, will have
to be tried again, as the jury were
divided in their opinion as to his
guilt or innocence.

From the standpoint of the fans it looks as if Taftville has the strongest team. H. Finlayson will play goal and this means that this position will be great ly strengthened. Thus position has ly strengthened. This position has for it has been a weak spot. Sutton and F. Greenha1gh, fullbacks. Sutton is a new man and halls from New ark, N. J., and with his teammate will take good care of their entrusted posi- tions: halfbacks, White, Roy and Des- jardin; forwards. Filling and Knowles, who is shifted from left half to inside right A Finlayson will play center and the Greenhalgh brothers will make a good left wing. If the weather per mits this will be corking good game The league has adopted the English soccer rules and will use neutral ref erees. The games that the league plays are bound to be very interesting owing to the fact that the teams are so even ly matched and so much enthusiasm has been stimulated that a good crowd is expected at the opening games.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
FLUCTUATIONS NARROW.
Market Weak, But Losses Are Gen
 eraly Hold to Fractions.

New York, March 27.-The progress Sive decline in stock exchange trans actions proceeded today to a point which brought down speculation to minimum proportions. The slow down. weak movement of the last few days continued Weakness developed in spots, but losses in most instances were held to fractions. In the first hour. usually the most active of the day, transactions footed up barely 30.- 900 shares. Fluctuations were so mar row that professional traders had few opportunities, and in the latter part of the day they left~the market practic- ally to itself
 The discouraging features. from the standpoint of traedrs committed to the declines of 6 few issues in spite of the fact that no severe pressure was dirested against them. Lehigh Vali- ley stood out most conspicuously among these stocks, falling back three points. Pittsburg. Cincinnati, Chicago recovery which followed it's first break on announcement of the cut in dIvi- dends. Canadian Pacific, Northern Pa cific and Northwestern also were heavy. The later stock was influenced by its February statement, showing a Union Pacffs' February net fell off $512, 900, and Illinois CentraPs $246, ,o00
 Of the industrials American Sugar was especially heavy. Its decline was attrobuted to current trade conditions and to forecasts of an unusually large beet sugar crop. Tobacco stocks were depressed by the prospects of further litigation with the government.
 Trading was dull abroad as well as in this market, and London did little business here.
 There was an easier tendency in the time money market. despite the near approach Of the time for April divi- dend and interest payments. The banks continued to accumulate cash on transactions with the interior. A cash gain of s2, 100000 to S4 COG, 900 was indicated by known movements of cur rency during the week.
 Bonds were irregular. Some prom inent issues were heavy. Total sales, par value S2,4O0,0G0.
 United States bonds were unchans- ed on call.
