mi ERE WAGES WERE AD
VANCED. At last a genuine tin Jouinblo nud
ituportunt advance iu wngivs has bou
nuuounced It is nn advauco of from
10 jur cent to 22$ per cent over the
former rated, and its benefits are en
joyed by a very laro nnmber of
workmen. Moreover, there is ex
plicit testimony tbo first of the kind

duo directly to tbo enactment of the
Gorman-Wilson tariff. Having said
tLis mncb, it is, of coarse, scarcely
necessary to add that tbo increase
Las taken place ou tbo other side of
tbo ocean, and that foreign and not
American tvorknieu aro its benelici
aries. Theso beneficiaries, to couio down
to details, aro tbo employes of the
great tin plate trust of South Wales
aud Monmouthshire, iu whose int
erests the late democratic congress
reduced the protection on tin plato
from 2 15 cents per pound to 1 1-5
cents, and thereby afforded n most
unexpected and nndesiraWo answer
to the vexed question, "Who pays
tbo dotyf These Welsh monopo
lists had good reason to believe that
they had been paying it themselves,
aud seeing thir American markets
steedily drift away from them in the
bargain, with the steady mnltiplica
tiou of competing American factories
they very naturally set out, therefore,
to pocket all of that cent a pound
I tonus which tbo Cleveland and the
Wilsons and the Gormans and the
Breckinridgcs had kindly conferred
upon them, but unfortunately their
presumptions employes would not
have. it. The workmen informed the
exultant Welslfmill bosses that there
would be a strike if they did not di
vide the sw3g. They demanded an
increase in wages, a restoration to
tha old figures of 1S74, and as tho
Welsh manufacturers aro prudent
men. who believe in making hay
while the sun shines, and tin plate
while tho duties are low, they got
it.
Significantly enough, at just the
same time tbero was a change in
wages in tho tin plato industry on
this side of the ocean, but it was in
the other direction. It was down
ward. The 40 lAmericau tin plate
mills which had grown up under
tho increased McKinley duty found
themselves m a critical position when

away from them. Their managers
saw that they must either reduce the
labor cost of their products or shut
down their machinery or quit the
business. They called their work
men together and explained the sit
uation to them. The workmen, like
sensible men, saw that it was a ques
tion of lower "faces or no w aires, and
accepted a reduction of from 10 to 20
per ceat.
Thus it happened that while wages
were going up in Wales they were
going down in America. Mr. Cleve
land consul at Cardiff has staled the
facts in the case, but he has discreetly
refrained from offering any explana
tion. Nor, indeed, is any explanation
necessary. Tho facts speak for
themselves. The passage of tbo
Gorman-"Wilsoa tariff was the sole
cause of tho phenomenon. It in
creased wages in Europe and re
duced wages in America, precisely
as tho republicans said it would, just
as it has done m scores of other in
dustries, and just as such legislation
will do every timo the American peo
ple permit a lot of iucompetent or
malignant lawmakers to get into
power in Washington. Boston Jour

business. He was the first chief of the
Kosebnrg fire department, elected thereto
in April 1S53, and performed the duties
of that position with honor to himself
and to the entire satisfaction ol those
who elevated him to that responsible
position. Ilo leaves a daughter, Agnea

A Good Tiling.
It has at last appeared to some of our
citizens that the K. of 1. Hand is de
serving of some complimentary support
on their part. This band has now been
organized about two years and has not
received nor asked for any aid from our
citizens, bnt have given their time in
practice and a considerable sum of
money in music and instruments, and
have now attained a proficiency second
to none in the state. Prof. F. H. Ai
plchoff, the director, has not applied his
time or musical skill in vain, and since
the winning of the prize at Grants Pass
so easily at the recent band contest, a
iraper is being circulated to get sub
scribers at $1 pur month to help defray
uie expense of the Imnd, and thus show
tlieir appreciation. This is a right
move and should be signed by every'
business man iu the city. In considera
tion of the amount subscribed the lnd
will be asked to give an open air con
cert at least once a week during the
time for which the money is subscribed
Put down your name, and thus help

The Bloomer Has Come to Stay.
The San Francisco Call says there is
bloomer suit at the Mechanics' fair, to
see which is alone worth the price of ad
mission. Tested by the immediate con
tact and contrast with all the frocks and
gowns that the multitude of well-dressed
women were trailing along tho isles, the
bloomer ebowed itself folly their equal
for grace and elegance, as well as super
ior to them for the comfort of the wearer
and tne convenience of the crowd. When
bloomers so graceful and dainty as this
come to tho front, rational drees will not
have to ivait for the alow process of rea
eon to win its victory, but can como ir
rationally, skipping in like a lamb to
captivate every lion of the season.

THE DURRANT TRIAL.
The
Examination of Innumerable
Witnesses Begun.
San Fiiancisco, Sept. 4. Tho trial of
Theodore Durrani for tho inurdor of
Dlauclio l.amont, was rostimed this
moruiug. Tho courtroom wub crowded
and hundreds .were unnblo to obtain ad
mission. Tho first witness was 0. U. Noble, tho
uuelo of Dlancho Lamont. Ho testified
to her disapK3arnnco aud to tho finding
of her dead body. I
Dr. J. S. Barrett, the surgeon who per
formed tho autopsy, testified that
Itlauclio died of strangulation, Tho wit
ness was cross-examined by Deuproy as
to his exivricuco as u surgeon and in
mnkiug autopsies. Iu reply to Iho cros-
examination of the defendant's attorney.
Dr. Barrett said ho bad performed about
100 autopsies last year. Tho defense
tried to break down tho whness' testi
mony that lauche I-nmont's strangula
tion had been by hands choking her.
Tho defense tried iu vain to have the
witness admit that strangulation might
havo been caused by asphyxiation in
stead of by hands, but Barrett stood the
test of a severe cross-exuminattou with
out altering his testimony in the least.
Barrett continued his testimony aud said
he found excessive congestion in each
lung of Blanche I-amoiit after her death.
There was decomposition 'enough in the
body to show that the had been dead in
the neighborhood of two weeks. Wit
ness said all other organs of the mur
dered girl were in a healthy condition.
It is stated that District Attorney
Barnes has about decided on tho follow
ing order in which tho witneaa will tie
examined: Next is to come is Mrs.
Charles (.!. Noble, tho aunt of Blanche
Lamont. Mrs. Noblo will ill of her
niece's disappearance aud will relate a
conversation held with Durrant on the
evening she was first missiug. She "ill
tell how he took Thackeray's "New-
comes" to her homo lor Blanche Lamont
the following eveuing, 31 ra. Noble's
testimony will be lengthy, as she has
much to relate, about Durrani's friend
ship for her niece, his proposal of mar
rijge and the circumstances connected
with the dead girl's rings that were re
turned to her through the mail.
Dr. Bartett said the fiager-marks on
Blanche Lamonl'd throat were male by
one person in Ins opinion. Thero was
every evidence of a struggle between the
victim and her stranglcr. When ex
amined as to the point of digestion which
Urn condition of the dead girl's stomach
indicated, the witness' answers carried
ont the theory of the eopIe that she was
murdered between 4 and 5 o'clock in tho
afternoon, whsn the noon meal had been
digested and the btomacb, was compara
tively empty.
Court here adjourned until - p. m.
Mrs. Mary Yogel will next be called.
She will stale that she saw Durrant on
the afternoon of April 3 pass up and
down in front of the normal school for
nearly an hour. That when school ad
journed she saw Durrant join a young
girl and go off on a car with her.
Miss Edwards, Miss Pleasant and Miss
Lanigan will then tell how Kiev saw
Blanche Lainont join Durrant after
school, and get ou a Powell-street car
with him.
Martin Qninlan will state that he met
Durrant and a young girl on Twent j-ec-
o'clock, on the afternoon of April 3. He
will say that the girl he saw with Dur
rant wore a dark woolen dress and a
large hat, and carried a nackaee of
books.
Then will come out one of the most
important witnesses, M-s. Caroline Leak.
Mrs. Leak will tell 1.10 court that she
saw Blanche Lamont aud Theodore Dor-
rant enter the side gate of Emauucl
church at 4:10 o'clock on the alternoon
of April 3, the day Blanche Lamont dis
appeared. ilrs. Leak will tell how she saw the
couple go into the church, but how she
watched in vain for them to come out.
It has not yet been decided whether
John E. West, tho conductor on tho
Powell-street line, whose car Blanche
Lamont and Durrant aro supposed to
have boarded, will bo called upon to tes
tify or not. He will be the ninth wit
ness. If it is deemed advisable to call
him, Georgo King will tako the stand.
King will state that while ho was prac
ticing in the Sunday-school room, be
tween 4 and C o'clock, on tho afternoon
of April 3, Durrant entered the room by
the backstairway. He will say tho pris
oner had his coat off; his hair was dis
heveled, and be was excited. Durrant
said he had been fixing tho gns above the
auditorium and had been overcome, and
asked him to get him some brouio
seltzcr. Tho Examiner says the prosecution
has a witness whose testimony will show
a motive for the murderers something
that baa been lacking heretofore, on ac
count of Durrant's standing in social and
religious circles. The name of the wit
ness is Elmer Wolfe, and it is said that
ho will swear that on April l, ono day
before Blanche Lamont was murdered,
he and Durrant held a conversation
which explains, with terrible signifi
cance, the young Btudont's motive for
luring the unfortunate girl into tho eanc
tuary. Wolfo has told the oIicc and
w ill tell tho jury that on tho afternoon of
April 2, he and Durrant held this con
versation which nicaut so much to tho
girl whom both had known only a fow
months.
Durrani commented en tho beauty of
Blanche. In a tone of exhultation aud
not of respect, ho assured Wolfe that she
was a pure girl, and that ho intended to
rob her of that virtue which alio so
prized. The girl prized her honor more
than her life; that explains tho tragedy
of the following day. This overwhelming
leslimony which Wolfe will givo was
kept a secret by tho prosecution. Tho
defense and the public havo thought tho
young man was a friend of the
accused, and would take tho stand
only to speak a good work for him
Intimations wore given that Wolfe would
bo dragged into tho enso in a manner lit
tie to his liking. Thero was nosuspicion
that Durrant had confided to his friend
the ignoblo purpose which Inspired him.
Ho spoke in words far plainor than those
which have been used. Ho left no pos
sible doubt of what ho meant. Tho
source of this evi Jonco is, in tho opinion
of Captain Lees, one of tho strongest
proofs of its reliability. Had some ono
enjoying no moro than a simplo acquaint
ance with Durrant como forward with It,
there might bo some doubt, but Us spon
sor posscssod tbo studont's confidence,
shared Ida pleasures, and took part iu
much of tho dally routino of his lifo.
From his own circlo his condemnation
comes like a thuudorbolt.
Ono of tho interesting probabilities in
tho great caso which is now in progress
is that Attorney-General Fitzgerald may
bo called upon to mako tho closing argu
ment for tho state. Tho Attorney-general
is known as ono of tho ablo criminal
lawyers in tho state. Ho has been a
member of tho supremo court of tho
statoaud is thoroughly familiar with
every snng which awaits tho pleador iu
criminal law. It is urged Hint tho urcat
public im portunco of tho caso domands
his presence and activo participation.
Thoso who are urging that tho iittornoy
goneral should mako tho closing argu
ments wish in no-way to reflect upon
District Attornoy Barnes.
They are frank to a :knowledgo his
great ability but would like to seo him
fortified in a matter which touches the
stato so closely as this case. Acting
iiK)n that view thoy hope that tho attor
ney-general will bo invited to mako tho
closing argument. Attorney-General
Fitzgerald has been questioned about tho
inattor and will willingly tako part if he
be invited to do so.
Opening of the Campaign.
Toi'KKA, Kan., Sept. 3. At the Labor
day celebration in this city ex-Senator
Ingidls spoke from the same platform
with J. It. Burton, who is looked upon
aslngall's principal opponent in tho
race for the United States senatorship.
Their appearance was regarded as tho
opening of the senatorial campaign.
The ex-senator openly says he is a can
didate for his old seat. He is taking a
friendly stand in favor of silver in his
speeches. After speaking in a general
way on labor -topics, Senator Ingalls
turned his attention to the last con
gress: "If this were a congress inadequate
incompetent, insincere, hostile to the
best interests of this country, it was not
the fault of congress so much as it was
the constituents that sent them there."
Turning to the charges that seats
were bought in the United States senate,
he laid the blame at the same door,
thoso who elected senators. Ho said :
"There is one remedy; abolish the
present antiquated, clumsy, superfluous
and detrimental method of choosing
senators by legislatures and let them be
elected by a direct vote of tho people of
the state as they ought to be elected."
This statement was loudly cheered.
Ingalls went a step further aud said
that the only way to purify this govern
ment was to trust the people, and he
even favored the election of president
and vice-president by direct vote. He
roundly scored the Standard Oil Com
pany and various trusts. He thought
labor had a right to combine, and spoke
strongly against indiscriminate immi
gration. He closed by urging the work
ingman to remember that the redress of
his wrongs is in his own hands.
Struck a Handcar.
Geaxts Pass, Or., Sept. 2. An unfor
tunate accident occurred this morning
near tunnel No. 0. on the railroad, IS
miles north of this city. An engine, go
ing from this place to meet the passenger
train at Glendalc, met a section hand
car, with four men on it, on a trestle
about 0O reet titgti, and 'crashed into
them. Two of the men succeeded in
jumping in time to save themselves, but
the other two were not so fortnnato and
were picked up nearly dead and brought
to- this city, where they now lie in a
critical condition. August Lorenz, the
section foreman, was bruised on tho
head, and it is believed his skull is
fractured. He is now unconscious.
John Allen, a laborer, is badly bruised
and cut, but bis braises are not as seri
ous as the other. Both men will be
taken to the company's hospital as soon
as they can bo moved.

to a widow of this town. Immediately
after the ceremony Barber called the
justice outside and said :
"Judge, this makes tho twenty-second
woman I have married, and in a few
days I'm going to havo another."
Tho official was astonished, and inado
known the startling news. Tho woman
at l3thairclaimul sbo was under tbo in
fluence of drugs when alio was married
to Barber. She is left in a destituto con
dition. In Orange county. Fla., Barker
hasthrco living wives. He has several
moro in different parts of tbo state who
would be glad to hear from him.

A glanco oyer the country famishes
sufficient evidence in proof of the propo

a diversified manner invariably reaps

The Finishing Touch.
In putting the finishing
touch to your toilet do you al
ways see that your shoes are
in keeping with the rest'of
your makeup? The shoes
may be better than the other
garments and still be appro
priate, but if they are not up
to the raiment in style and
quality the effect is unpleas
ant. Mrs. Grace Osburu's
fine line of Shoes stand on
their merits, is infinite in va
riety, excellent in quality.
and moderate in price.
