St. Louis, April 29.—Riot, bloodshed

forbidden the removal of coadomnej
prisoners to the penitentiary, owing to
the appturance of smallpox in tho Jail,
anil forty-seven cells in the Institution

This foreos 300 prisoners Into fifty
cells. Discontent over this has boon

violence.
Five negro women In one cell abused
the guards until the Irene was turned
on them, .when they bcttime so vlolenl
that three inside guards attempted to
remove them from the tblnl tier cell
to the dungeon. The moment their
door was opened they sprang upon the
guards like wildcats and ehased the
men down stairs.
Three officers came to the rescue
and managed to got them down to the
ground floor court, when the light ova*

Boston, Mass., April 29.—The May
number oif the Home Market Bulletin
Issued today contains the result of a
canvass of the textile manufacurers ol
Now England, New York and Now
Jersey and Pennsylvania as oo -the
condition of tbelr business, which
proves to be highly Interesting. The
answers were received from 481 c«tab-
llshmenia about evenly divided among
the states named and fairly represent
ing city and comity and large and
bir.altl establishments. These answers
octupare April 1893, with April 1895,
and are summaris'd as accurately as
porstbio in a table.
As to reduction and restoration of
wages, 185 of the 481 establishments
did not reduce at all. 81xtecn reduced
ttDd have partially lewtored and 252 re
duced and have jot restored. The Fall
River and New Bedford mills, which
have recently made partial resitora-
ttens, do not enter either of the ac
count* above. Nearly all That did not
reduce are small mills in the country,
or are producers of specialties In which
there are little co.irpc-tltlon and for
which fashion alone ihaa made a good
demand. In may cases, too, where the
wage rare* have beeu maintained there
have 'bam reductions of running time,
or of hands, or nt bath.
Of course It Is Impossible to put Into
a table or summary all that was writ
ten In the return. But the table fairly

It is the condition of orders and

of Judging whether or not the present
rates of production and wages can be

SDrREME COURT’S DECISION.
The Opinion Hated Upon the Prejudlci
ofOnoof tho Jurora, nml It Mny He
a Very Strong Authority In
Future Criminal Caiei*
Atlanta, April 29.—(Special.)—Willie J.
Meyer, the nineteen-yetr-old boy who
was convicted of Plundering Forrest L.
Crawley, a steady going business man
of Rosowell, Ga., under a train of dr
oumstances UnpirollcIIcd til the crimi
nal annals of ihe stute. will have an
other Chance for his life.
The supremo court today granted
Meyer a new trial overruling Judge
IWohard H. Clark, the trial judge, who
had refused the application far nqw (rial
upon allega tions of error and newly dls-
covered evidence.
r.iung M«yers has steadily clung to
his story that Brown Allen, a p sJUtige
"-•<■ has so far proven a myth, com.-
m tteil 'Be murder, and has never lost
hope of a no wtri.U. When th(^ action
of the court iivas conveyed (oriilni In his
cell today he mode no manifestation of
emotion, but quietly said he knmv he'd
get tt. The declMon was handed down
at 10 o'clock chts morning. Mr. Gordon
Mitchell, one of Meyers’ attorneys, was
in waiting to receive the decision alt
the cap.to!, aval at once untitled Meyers'
father, who drove hurriedly to the Jail
to tell his son the welcome news. It
cannot be lold yet when the new trial
will corns off.
Judge Spencer Atkinson rendered the
curt’s decision which Is quite lengthy.
The court has been unable to agree on
a decision for several weeks, but ss
Anally rendered there was no dtosenalng
vote.
Tho main grounds for the granting of
the now trial was that one at the Jurors
named Huff had expressed the opin-
ior. that Meyere was guilty nnd should
be hung before he was drawn on the
Jury and ihut the Jury might have
been unduly influenced by the crowd
in the court room.
The court held, nnd the point will
probably prove tin Important precod'jnt,
that a man might legally qualify as n
Juror by answering me formal questions
put to blm, although Ids mind was pre
judiced by having read newspaper ac
counts or from hearing the public dis
miss a cose. Under such clrcumstanceu
the court held a mum might go upon a
Jury dcts.-.'nlnod to hang a man. and
tho Inference from the decision is that
the court thought Juror Huff might
halve had suoh a determination when
ho qualified.
The ruling as to Ihe crowd In the
court room la ,ui other Important point.
Tho court 'Inclaras that while every per
son Is entitled to a public trial yet It
Is th-. du'y of tue Judge to keep the
court room hi such a omd.tlon as to

Santiago de Cuba, April 19. via
Tampa, Fla., April 29.—Since i't has br
oom* evident that Gon. Martinez
Campos cams here for war and not
for a settlement of'the rebellion by the
tra/Uon of Cuban affairs, there have
teen quiet disappearances from this
city of some well known men who be
long to good Cuban families. They
hd hopes that Spain would grant home
rule, or at least take a step In ibat
direction upon tho landing of Oampos,
who has absolute power. When they
read his proclamation anti saw that
he promised no reforms unt'I tho

which -were passed by the codes three
months ugo and are of little value,
they took Winchesters which they gtr-
crCted anil In Httle groups of a dozen
or more went to tho Interior. Forty
men left town on 'the day after CamopF
arrival, and others are said to be leav

At Ihe cluhs, the cafes and other

Spanish officers, from. Campos down,
say the war will be short Uved. They
claim they have soidiers enough to
push the 'Work with success.

Henry, a middle-aged man of rather
uncouth appearance, was arrested here
this afternooO upon a charge of abduc
tion. About three weeks ago Henry In
duced Mamie Bryan, 1« years old, of
Franklin, N. C„ to leave her home upon
promise that he would secure her a
pleasant situation In Atlanta. The
girl’s parent* were poor, and the pros
pect of being able to earn a comforta
ble living caused her to listen to Hen
ry’s promises. At Gainesville, finding
that tho girl's character waa stronger
than be counted upon, Henry placed
her In a boarding house and came on
to Athinta. Hie police here were noti
fied of her disappearance by the au
thorities of Franklin, and tonight the
girl waa brought down from Gaines
ville by an officer and placed In the
hands of her sister, who has lived here
some t|me. A warrant has been Issued
for Henry and the North Carolina
sheriff will arrive for him tomorrow.

An Interesting Point Passed Upon by
the Supreme Court.
Washington, April 29.—A ease In
volving an important question of the
application of the railroad rates was
decM tl by the aupronie court today
In an opinion rendered by Mr. Justice
Brewer. It came direct to the supreme
court on a writ of error from tho court
of Milan oounty, Texas, and In Itself
was not Important, but settling the
queelou nt stake mode ft notable. It
was the case of the Gulf, Colorado and
Santa Fe Rail pond Company v*. Hef-
fley A Lewis. Disposing of the ca*c.
Justice Brewer said that a statut • of
Texas requiring laUrnsil companies to
deliver freight at the price named in
bill of lading, under penalty of dam
ages proscribed In the law, waa Inap
plicable to the Intemtais commerce
law, wbloh forbids railroad companies
to charge, collect or receive for freight
on «U<*1 shipment any other, either
grestei or leas sum than that named In
the tariffs wMoh they were required
to publish. The state statute cen apply
only to tthfpments wholly within tho
state. The judgment at the county
court was reversed nnd then remanded
to further proceedings In conformity
to the application.
