stepped aboard the 2il tnin for New

Cured you would know OF them, don't
you think"
Laughing. she said that she did not
remember that the Baron and the Baron
css had denied reports last fail that they
had quarrelled or that the Baroness
had said she had not thrown her hus-
ba nd's trunks out of the second story
window and that she couldn't do 80

OF hitherto amicable relations ana either
side may decide to sacrifice the other In
the fight for acduittal
William II. Lewis. one Of the foremost
negro lawyers of the country and former
Assistant Attorney-General of the United
States, has indicated that he will fight
with the single end in view of saving the
negroes from conviction, no matter what
may happen TO Mrs. Mohr.
The opinion as to the value of Mrs.
Mohr's testimony IL divided. Her many
contradictions and inability to remember
dates are believed by some to have had
bad effect upon the Jury. Much of the
direct testimony OF the State was con-
tradicted in its entirety by her testimony
until 1t came down TO a point where the
jury must Judge between the truth of her
story and that OF George Heals.
When the defence OF Mrs. Mohr Is con-
cluded. and IL Is not expected TO occupy
more than three more days. witnesses for
the negro defendants will take the stand

WIDE PUBLICITY TO
ELECTION DECREE

Mexico, City. Oct. 1.-THE decree
calling for the elections Of delegates
to the constitutional assemb bly, which
will meet in Queretaro December to
discuss and approve new constitu-
ton for Mexico has been given the
widest publicity throughout the re-
public. The decree was telegraphed
in full to the governors Of all the
states in order to avoid delay in pub
lication everywhere.
In all garrison towns the procla-
nation was made public on its receipt
by means of military parade
through the streets with troops and
bands followed by the public reading
Of the decree. It also was prominent
ly posted in public places and publish
ed in all available newspapers. Tho
decree provides that state governors.
presidents Of municipalities and 9TH
ers in authority are not eligible for
election as delegates to the congress.
The first three sessions Of the as
sembly will be governed by the rules
Of procedure formerly used by the
chamber of deputies. the assembly it
self making such amendments to
those rules as conditions make ad-
visab BILE. The assembly will also pass
on the credentials Of the delegates and
designate the duties Of each.

Negroes of West Coast
and From America Vie az
Fashion Plates in England

Liverpool. Oct. Liverpool 10 be-
coming conscious Of remarkable
growth in Its black population. Tho
negroes are coming from the West
Coast Of Africa and from America. A
striking feature Of the invasion II that
the blacks SO numerous on the city
streets generally are arrayed in gar
ments Of the latest cuts and hues. The
color schemes usually are rather loud,
those from the United States in a riot
Of checks. stripes, vivid neck-ties.
lurid hose and bright yellow shoes.
At first this invasion puzzled tho
authorities here, but a little investiga-
ton tended to solve at least q part Of
the mystery. The bulk Of the blacks
it seems have been recruited on the
West Coast to work as flremen on
steamers whose white crews presum-
ably have become reduced through
the war. They are not all seafarers.
however. for many appear to have
signed for one trip only and have OBJ
tained employment here in the Short
handed factories at lucrative wages.
This is particularly true Of the Ameri-
can negroes, many Of whom have
come over as muleteers or other
workers on ships in the American
trade.
The West Africans speak English Of
course, but not very nuently. The
American negroes being quito glib Of
tongue are more interesting to the
Liverpool street crowds The Ameri.
can blacks do not go to all the ex-
tremes Of dress affected by the Afri-
cans, who in their new found wealth
and European surroundings have
proved profitable customers to the
cheaper class of tailors.

AUSTRIA HOLDS THE LEAD.

Vienna, Oct. THE "radium in
dustry" of Austria has not suffered in
the slightest by reason Of the war. ac-
cording to Prof. Meyer. head Of tho
Institute for Austrian Radium Pro-
duction. Rather. he says. the war har
proved that Austria stands at the
head Of the world in this respect, and
will always be . big factor in the
market. despite the planned CONNER
cial "war after the war"
The radium coming from Colorado
and Pittsburg, says Prof. Meyer. -
hardly sufficient in quantity to suf-
Ace for scientific purposes throughout
the world. The Pittsburg works havs
in fact produced but 10 grams since
the beginning Of the war. ana nov,
have ceased almost altogether. The Inc
dustry at JoachimstAl, Austria, hoN.
ever, has gone ON undisturbed.
Nor has the war resulted In any Ap-l
preciable. rise In the cost Of radiums
production. % that the aAvnAeoa'
prices now quoted are purely the -.
suit Of speculation.

CATTLE TRADE
BASIS STEADY
Clearance for all Sorts on
Par With Thursday's-
Run 1900.

South St. Paul, Oct. 7.-Outlet Sc
cured for fat cattle was steady as
compared with the preceding days Of
the week in practically all cases. Out
side news indicated that trade was
progressing elsewhere on an un-
changed basis but the Western mar.
ket map showed only a small general
billed here was larger than the run
at any other Western market and ag-
gregate at nine points for the day
was only about 1850 cattle and l..
500 calves.
Supplies were deficient in tho good
to choice offerings and no corn-fed
offerings or particularly good rangers
were on hand. The native assortment
was not alone In the representation a
a few Dakota lots Of a rather ordinary
sort reached the yards.
The steer quota was sold mainly b.
tween $500 and $3.50 but at such
figures nothing Of really good gradl
was to be had. The run included con.
siderable plain steer stuff which
stocker and feeder buyers passed VI
and which had little 'kill' to attract
took over several lots Of this stock
under a nickel pound.
The trade looks strong generally a
compared with week ago but quot.
able advance has been confined to the
cutter and Gamer COWS and to bulls
for the most part. The latter have
worked UP 10 to is cents. Some sell.
ers have had even better success in
places.
Cows and heifers Of the $500 ia
$500 classes again made up ma
jority of the assortment. It IL now
less difficult to move the desirable
she stock up around the latter mark
than at the low time at the start Of
the week but premiums Of half
dollar or more over that figure have
not been frequently earned by grass
ers on recent days owing to scarcity
of toppy kinds.
Veal calves held steady with top at
SLIPS which was established as trade
summit Thursday when values sagged
a quarter. Wide spread between TOP
and bottom quotations exists.
Toning up Of the market gives reason
to expect another big cattle run here
next week.
Estimated receipts were 400 cat.
tie and 700 calves against 2.4S4 cat
tie and 5S6 calves a week ago and
4,e17 cattle and 757 calves year
ago.
Nine markets in five days this week
had 259,00o cattle and $4,000 calves
against 2s5,000 and $4,000 calves the
same days last week.
