Lamar & Son’s, dru2- - 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 Shows that the volume of production and employment and the wages paid •re a till 5 per cant, on the average below the condition oi two years ago, while the orders for goods are nos quite one-half so encouraging as they were then, the oane4laaitir.ua are far greater and tile profits are lost out of sight. It is the condition of orders and profits which best Indicates the true stake of business and affords a means of Judging whether or not the present rates of production and wages can be maintained or Increased. Several pages of brief remarks from the manufac turers aro printed, which show that most of them are running simply to hold their customer:) and keep their help so as to be ready for the better business lndknitod for the future. Or ders are cancelled upon frivolous pre texts. the rea* meaning of which is rhait sales are dlsagnpolmlng or simi lar goods are offered at lew’s* prices.

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 prevent the Ju.*y from overhearing the rks of th,. r.i v>I as lo the u lull' Of I I At the M, XaiaJLS !
