Continue Presentation of Prayers to Court. ‘Washington, ' Feb. 16.—When the . postal conspiracy trial was resumed | the prosecution offered two additional papers, one referring to the statement made by some of the defendants to postofiice inspectors and the other de- fining a reasonable doubt. | Justice Pritchard disposed of them by announcing that he would charge | the jury that these statements should not have any effect on the defendants, ' except on the one making them, and the jury should not conjure imaginary | doubts to avoid performance of a dis- | agreeable duty. The verdict must be “not guilty” for all of the defendants if the facts and circumstances and their acts can be accounted for on any | reasonable theory consistent with the | presumption of innocence, or if the }meged conspiracy is not csmbllshedl as having been entered into with in- | tent to defraud the United States. | Most of the prayers were granted by ! the court. What is deemed the most -~ important of them instructs the jury that if they believe from the evidence | that Lorenz owed Machen $25,000 or anv. athar cum Taranz hod o nasfest Lawyers | are ruined on account of nearly every “““Entertainment Tonight. ‘ The next entértainmentin the course of being given by the M.E. church will be Flude’s illustrated lectures, which Mr. Flude will present at the church tonight.

TIg0t to pay Mhchen that sum fully or partly in such manner and methods as he chose. He had the right to pay it partly by checks and partly by drafts at his own convenience, or to equalize the balance in the banks with which he had accounts and to make payments in such proportionate parts as he chose of any amounts re- ceived from the Groffs from time to time. . Machen, the court added, had the right to receive and accept pay- ments on account of the indebtedness, even though he knew they were de- rived wholly or partly from the Lorenz interest in the profits- from the Groff fastener sales, provided that Machen'’s official action as to the fasteners was not thereby affected, also provided that the jury finds the transaction be- tween the Groffs and Lorenz was bona fide, contemplating in this connection the manner of the payments. RECOVERY IS MARVELOUS, Merchants of Baltimore Resume Busi- ness With New Stocks. Baltimore, Feb. 16.—Just eight days ago the great fire which destroyed eighty blocks and- 2,500 houses in the business center of this city broke out and it may be truthfully said that the city has shown a recuperative power which must be accounted extraor- dinary. Though only six week days have elapsed since the fire was checked the great majority of merchants who were burned out have found locations and have resumed business with new stocks, and every bank is doing busi- ness and the current of trade and financial transactions has begun to flow on as before. Baltimore’s greatest good fortune was in the exemption of its terminal facilities from the destroying blast, which furnishes the guarantee that there will be no interruption to the | vast exporting and importing business and the great coast line trade of this seaport. | Street car traffic is about normal | again. Dangerous walls are being levelled and the burned district is | guarded by militia, CASES NOLLE PROSSED. dence Against Indicted | Officials. Saginaw, Mich., Feb. 16.—Prosecut- ing Attorney O’Keefe has nolle prossed cases brought against “the following aldermen and ex-aldermen as the re- sult of indictments returned by the recent grand jury charging attempted bribery in an electric light deal: John Hermann, James Lester, T. J. Norris, Frank A. Starkweather, James McCrew, James Willhite, Fred C. Pe- ters, Laverne Stine and Charles H. Bird; also against George Phoenix for an alleged attempt at soliciting a bribe from Engineer Robert Glenn, re- sulting from the appointment of city hall officials. Insufficient evidence was Prosecutor O’Keefe’s .reason. Insufficient Evi IN SAN DOMINGO. SERIOUS Business at a Standstill and Crops Are Ruined.
