Semi-Weekly Herald. TUSDAY, JAN. 24, 1905. Mitchell Case May be Delayed. Washington, Jan. 21.—Senator Mitchell has decided not to re-enter the Senate. He has been^urged by his friends to return to Portland and insist on an early trial. In formation has reached Washington indicating that the prosecution is in no hurry to bring Mitchell to trial, but that a series of delays will prob ably be interposed. Ono official, closely connected with the land frauds case, says he has advices from a friend in this city that Mitchell will not oe brought to trial for at least a year. All these reports have been car ried to Sonator Mitchell and are oited as reasons why he should go back to Portland and insist on being tried. Senators who believe in his in nocence have gone to him in the last few days and advised him to go home and demand a prompt hear- ing. They declare that he is titled to a speedy trial, especially on account of his position. If guilty they say, the facts should be estab fished, for if guilty he is unfit to hold his office as Senator. If in nocent, the fact should be declared in order that he may once more take up his active duties in the Senate Shells Exploding on Potomac Some days ago the woods in the mountains known as London Heights, opposite Harper’s Ferry, took fire and burned with great in tensity. After burning for some time a series of explosions were heard, which startled the inhabitants and the concussion waB so great that it broke windows in some houses in Harper's Ferry, across the Shenandoah. The explosions were caused by the bursting of shells, which were thrown on the heights at the time when General Mills nurrendered to Stonewall Jackson, in 18fi2. Those had failed to explode when they were fired, and had lain here for oyer 40 years.— Hagerstown Mail. 4 C r iu t T n t r d r Strike in Russia.
