Assistant Pros ecuting Attorney Bottuin closed his address iu the Coughlin case last night, after talking three days. Judge Tut hill charged the jury this morning aud it is expected they will goout during the day. The Coughlin trial has been eno of the most note worthy in the criminal aunals of the country. Like the former Crouin trial It has been replete with sensations, and of remarkable duration. D.tuiel Coughlin. an ex-city detective, was charged with complicity in the murder of Dr. P. H. Cronin, a prom inent Irish physician. Croulu was well known in one faction of the Clan ua Gael and it was to members of an op posing faction that his murder was charged. At the former trial Coughlin, Martlu Burke, Patrick O'Sulllvan were convicted of tho murder aud sentenced to life Imprisonment. The two latter died in prison and tho prvseut defend ant secured a new trial. Dr. Cronin disappeared on the evening of May 4, 1SS9. After a protracted search his body, mutilated and decomposed, wnD found in a catch basin in tho nntheru part of the city. In the same section of the city stands the little Carlson cottage where the theory of the prosecution places the murder. "In the present trial, after five weeks work, tho jujy was accepted on Dee. lit. Before the jury was completed several sensations were sprung iu tho shape of charges against juryuieu, aud three men who had beeu accepted nolo excused fruui ooivloo. Ou Dec. 1Kb, the case was opened with the fol fowl ng Jury: George P. Shay, Oscar P. Brooks, C. Bolsman, Frank B. Lusk, O. S. Welnborger, Frederick G. Luue, Clark Bruce, mnuu Wadlelgh, Juhu F. Larsou, Mlcheal Comlou, Al fred Woodard aud Oscar Beuaou. Assistant Prosecuting Attorneys Bot tuiu, Wickum and Soanlan conducted the case for tho state, with ex-Judge Wing and Attorney Donahoo for tho de fense. One of tho the most important witnesses to appear for tho prosecution was Mrs. Andrew Foy, wife of a brick layer. Mm. Foy told of being present at numerous conferences between tho defendant aud her husband, and claimed to have heard numerous conversations betweon them aud other men, which painted to a oiusplraoy to murder Dr. Cronin. Her story was soiiBatloual In tho extreme, but tho defence Introduced testimony to show that Mrs. Foy had written to a former attorney for tho de fense, threatening to tell a damaging story, unless she be liberally rewarded. Her sanity was also called In question, and her Intense hatred fur her husband, to whom her testimony was most dam aging, was shown. Her ovldeuco was perhaps tho strongest of any presented by the state, as she told a complete story of the killing. Her testimony was that Martin Burke, now dead, aud the missing Coouey did tho actual killing, while Gorman O'Sulllvan stood In the yard, and a policeman guarded tho door. Coughlin, sho said, arrived at the Carlson cottage, shortly after the deed was done. Iu attempted corrobo. ration of Mrs. Foy's story, Mrs. Hualo was called, and testified that she saw Foy and Coughlin together on May 12, 18S0, near the Carlson cottage. The defense, however,lntroduced testimony to show that on the day In question, Mis. Jlortoa was sadly Intoxicated. A new and sensational witness was introduced by tho state, In tho person of Frank Bardeen, an electrical engi neer. In May 1880 he was employed at tho Kdgewater Electrical Light Plant, past which, tho wagon, bearing the remains of Dr. Cronin, was as sumed by the prosecution to have gone. Bardeen said that about two o'clock on morning of May 6th he heard a wagon pausing. He turned on an electric search light, which was fixed above tho door, and in the glare he saw, ho said, a wagon in which was a large chest or trunk, Behind the wagon walked two men, he claimed, one of whom he Identified aa Coughlin, Bardeen'a testimony was savagely attacked by the defense. It was shown that no train ran at the hour he said he left Edewater the morning after he saw the wagon, aud evidence waa In troduced to show that no moon waa yUlbleoo the sight la fjueatlon, ! Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest I. S. Gov't Report. ABSOLUTELY PURE though he swore positively that ho saw tho men aud wagon by nicwmllgjit. Much medical teatimouy was Intro duced by tho defense to prove tint Dr. Cronlu's de.Uh tulnht have resulted from disease and not from wounds found on his body, but its priucipal etlect was directed towards establish lag an alibi. Three witnesses swore to haveseeu Coughlin during the evening when he was supposed to have been engaged in the killing, and their tea tlinouy was takeu. Several days were were consumed by the state in rebuttal evidence and lengthy speeches were made by couucil. Throughout the long trial tho most intense interest has beeu manifested aud tho court room has dally beeu thronged by spectators-. ItK IS ACQUITTED. Chicago, Ills., March S.

About fifty voters turned out, mostly Republicans. Tho Populist club couduo'ted the meeting aud was out In full force. Mr. Hadloy, of South Salem, waa Intro duced ond showed ho was ubout tho strongest speaker In that party. Mr. Jory, of Kuttern Oregon, followed. Ho is a caudidnto for congress and takes the most advanced PopulUt grounds. His proposition to pay all public eerv; nnts-on a sliding scalo according to tlfo price of wheat and wool, was novelty. As ho explained It, If a mail clerk gets n thousand dollars and wheat Is a dol lar a bushol,uud wool 20 cents n pound, when wheat goes to fifty cent 8 and wool ten cents tho salary should only bo J500 a year. Tho proposition is to mako products it legal tender fi r wages. Of coin-no, this would apply to laborers and tho man who got (1.50 n day when wheat win r. dollar and wool 20 cents, would have to taku 00 cents a day when wheat Is 40 cents u btisliel aud wool 8 cents n pound. Of course, even Populists would not bo willing to work for such wagon. 10. Hofer, of Thk Journal, mid Win. Armstrong responded on behalf of tho Hepubll. cans, who seem to bo quite miniurous, happy nnil enthusiastic. Mr. Harford, a Populist, made an able spucuh for free trade and direct taxation. Another man spnko who said ho had ulways been a Democrat but was now n Popu list, got up to Hpoiilc but whou asked If tie was not a l'oriiumi A. r. A. man would not reply, and whim nuked again slid out of the meeting. The Republi cans will meet to orgaul.o at mi early dute. PERSONALS. Uso only Gold Dust Holler Flour. Dr. W. A.

Gold Dust Holler Fiour-tbo bott. akincf Powder IX THE RIGUT LINE. rubllo taxation should be expended more for the masaea of tho young children growlug up than for the col leges. At the last session of tho legislature 51S,603 were appropriated for tho beno tlt ofditlerwit colleges iu this state. The Monmouth normal school received $22,852; tho university of Oregon re ceived 525,000; the stato agricultural college J00.220; for n a state normal school at Weston $24,0150; for; graded school In South Eastern Oregon $5,000. Au exchange saya this $130,G03 would have done more good if given to assist the country schools. Over $4000 to each county in tho stato would haye assisted tho school districts very materially. TUK SOLDIKKSMlOMK UK. The Journal wishes to correct somo of tho mistakes that are mado In regard to tho stato soldiers' homo appropriation. Tho statement of soma Populist speakers that the sum of (04,000 for tho soldiers' homo was appropriated by tho lust legislature Is falso. The sum, to bo plain, Is for two yea, and tho first year It la $15,000 for tho land aud tho building furnished. Tho second year (12,000 for malutttlnouco. Tho next loginluturowlll bo asked to give another (1,000 for Its support. There are about 5000 ex-unlou soldiers and Indian war veterans In Oregon, Of this number a careful estimate shows that there are about 125 who will seek admission to that homo. Tho general government approprlatei) (100 pur annum for each soldier who will live nt tho stato homo, which would give au amount equol to all that In naked of Oregon for eaoh year. Tito (01.000 Ho is constantly Hcattored by some of these speakers and tho factw should bo placed before the people. Two Prihonkhs. Slier IU Bowles, of Union county today brought down Sherman Sturman, alias John Sher man, Huutouced 18 months for the heinous olloiiso of stealing two geld ings, and J.
