FIRSTROUND IN EVOLUTION FIGHT ENDED (Continued from pngo ine) It was announced that the appeal would bo made to the nupreme court, meeting at Knoxvllle. The court gavo tho defenie 30 days In which to perfect the appeal and aid that an extension would be granted If necessary. Tho Jury stood and posed for photogra phs an def enso lawyers mndo final arrangementH for their ftp pen I. Judge Itaulston asked If there wore any other matters to bo at tended to. Tho only business was the tak ing of photographs. "Anyone, nnylhing they want to lay?" asked Judge Knulston. There was no response. MoiHhig Tlirmvti 0hmi Later the meeting was thrown open for general discussion and a half dozen informal speeches were made, thanking tho people of nay ion for their hospitality during tho period of tho trial. J. Cordon MoKrnzlc told tho vis iting attorneys that tho people of Tenneweo appreciated their com ing. Other speeches followed. William J. llryan added a word about Dayton. Dayton in tho cen ter of this eiwo largely by circum Itnnoes, ho said. He recalled the rrent publicity attending tho case. This case hao stirred tho world, ho said, "becnuso It goe deep and Wide." "Hero has been fought out a lit tto ense of little consequence ns a enso but ono In which a great Issue m Involved. "Sumo day It will bo settled hut there can be no settlement with Out discussion." "Human being are mighty small your honor, nnd wo nro sometimes apt to magnify the Individual. But cauoes go on forever. Wo who have become assnclnted with this cae have attached ourselves to mighty Issue." Clarenc Harrow followed Bryan Ho told of his appreciation at what he described as friendly treatment by counsel "on tho other side" and ftt the hnnds of the townspeople or Dayton. "Hero wo have done our bewt to rnrco back tho tide that has at tempted to turn back tho modern trend of scientific thought." Tho final nddrcm wnn mndo by Judge IlauWon, who declared that "It some times takes courage to stand for a sentiment that stands In contravention to public opinion About him. A mnn who Is big enough to stand up for principle Is big. Indeed." Tho Judge paid tribute to smnll town, sayinT many great men have come from villages. "Two things In thin world are Indestructible," he said. "One the truth and the other tho word of God, given to man Dint mnn use tt." "Thi ltttlo talk comes from my heart," ho concluded. "I run glad to have had these gentlemen with us." He added: "If I hnve mndo mis takes the higher court will find It o." Arthur O. Hnye of dofenso coun sel asked the court to permit him to Bend an autographed copy of Darwin's "Origin of the Specloj," and "Deneent of Man." After a benediction by the Rev. C. It. Jones, the court adjourned cine die a few minute after noon. Cattle Market Outlook Improves The beef cattle man may now have his inning at higher prices. While the cattle population of the western range states has de creased, a fmul liquidation of the surplus may send about as muny cattle from that section as hist year, and the price trend is distinctly upward, according to r. V. lowing, director oi the Kcsearch Division of the Sears-Koebuck Agricultural Foundation. More carcasses of beef received the stamp of federal inspectors in the first five months of 1925 than in the corresponding period of any previous year except 1918 and 1919. Average prices at Chicago are about one dollar higher than in 1924. The average farm price of beef cattle April 15, Die most recent report, was $0.bo against last year, ?b.Y the year previous and $5.53 three years ago. The number of feeders moved from leading markets into seven cornbclt states since Janu ary was one sixth less than a year ago and nearly one-fourth less than two years ago.

J-:. Hroolts, manager of the liiaeK cherry association, a.s uon members netted is cents a pound on ono car of black eher- ries which waa sold in Chicago. This was the largest ear of cher ries sent out by the association and aim tno one ear that Manager Urooks was fearful might not get mrough in good shape. For that reason tne sale was made In Chica go, although at that time, accord ing to wires received hero tho cnance lor a high price was better in tho IMttB'ourg market than in Chicago. But fearing to take a cnance on ordering the car for warded to Pitt.shurg, Brooks wired instruction, to Chkigo to sell the care there at once with the result ant high price. This is thn hn.t price realized net on black cherries during the past two years of ship ping, really tho onlv twn.vfl-, nf .shipping of any consequence ever uiitiiupieu out or here. Brooks also has received from ncgonei c jjay advices that they sold one car In New Ynrir fi- $3.20 a box, f. o. b. New York and another $3.07, f. o. b. Chicago, sell ing this car in Chicago.
