Verdict of -Courtmartial in Case of Captain Macklin. San Antonio, Tex., May 3.—The courtmartial which has been trying Captain Edgar Macklin of the Twenty- fifth infantry in connection with the shooting up of Brownsville went into secret session at noon and after sit- ting one hour returned a verdict of not guilty for the accused. The verdict was not made public at once, but first went to Colonel R. W. Hoyt, the re- viewing authority, who later gave out the decision of the court. The accused was found not guilty on all charges and specifications and the verdict read WOMEN ESCAPE PRISON. Witness at First Trial Says He Testi- fied Falsely.

Pittsburg, May 3.—Rallroads in the Pittsburg district have filed tariffs with the interstatg commerce commis- sion for a general advance in freight rates to become effective June 1. Probably the most important feature of the advanced rates, as far as Pitts- burg is concerned, is the general in- crease of 10 per cent on all iron and | steel finished materials and the ad- vance of 7% per cent on pig iron and billets. The tariffs were filed in accordance with the ruling of the commission that the proposed changes in- rates of all kinds must be made public at least thirty days before they became ef- fective. It is said that the advance in freight rates this year is greater than was ever announced in previous years. Practically every freight rate has or will be advanced and it is reported that coal carrying roads are now con- sidering the question of making still further advances in coal freight rates. The new rates will affect not only the Pittsburg district but all points east of the Mississippi river. The present rate for pig iron from the Ma- honing and Shenango valleys to Pitts- burg is 85 cents a ton and under the new tarift will be 95 cents a ton. TRUST SEEKS CLEMENCY. Schocl Desk Combine Tells Story of Hard Luck. Chicago, May 3.—Tales of near bankruptcy and corporate pauperism were unfolded hefore Judge Landis in the federal court by representatives of the thirteen school desk and church pew companies which recently entered pleas of nol contendere to indictments for violating the Sherman anti-trust law. The companies sought clemency at the hands of the court and their stories of the lean years may have an effect in reducing punishment. Judge Landis reserved his decision for sev- eral days. According to these stories there is little or no money in manufacturing scheol desks or church pews. The combination was formed a year ago, but before the government stepped in and killed it the giant forces of com- petition on the one hand and the high price of raw materials on the other had all but choked the life from this struggling infant trust. FRANCO-JAPANESE TREATY Agreement Assures Mutual Respect for Asiatic Possessions. Tokio, May 3—It is semi-officially said that a Franco-Japanese agree- ment to assure mutual respect of France’s right in her Asiatic posses- sions and those of Japan in Formosa and Korea and under the Liaoyang treaty will probably be concluded. The instrument will be ratified after the termination of the Russo-Japanese negotlations regarding the commercial and fishing rights on the Siberian coast, now nearing a definite conclu- slon at St. Petersburg. It is said that it will be followed by a definite Russo- Japsnese agreement for the preserva- tion of tlie post bellum status quo in the Far East. The two agreements are being _independently negotiated and db not imply any alliance of Ja- par, Great Britain, France or Russia. WLt REPLY BY LETTER.

Chandler, United States sigmal service, and J. C. McCoy of New York failed to break the long distance balloon record and win the Lahm cup. The balloon which left St. Louis Tuesday evening landed five miles north of Golconda Wednesday after- noon. Golconda is only 130 miles from St. Louls. Changeable air cur- rents demonstrated to the aeronauts that they could not win the cup and for that reason they made the landing near here. The balloon was brought here in wagons. McCoy goes with it to New York, while Captain Chandler goes to Washington. Open Switch Causes Wreck.

ARREST CAUSES SENSATION Bir George' Arbuthnot, British Finan- cier, Behind the Bars. Madras, May 3.—Sir George Gough -Arbuthnot, head of the firm of Arbuth- Lot & Co. of this city, whose London house, P. MacFadyen & Co., failed for a large amount in October last and caused the head of that firm to com- mit suicide, has been arrested here in connection with the failure of Mac- Fadyen & Co. He was remanded in custody, bail being refused. London, May 3.—Sir George Arbuth- not is a familiar figure in the finan- cial world and club life of London and his arrest at Madras caused a sensa- tion. Arbuthnot’s bank was regarded in India as being almost as safe as the Bank of England. Many officers’ widows and children deposited their whole resources in the bank and were ruined when it stopped payment. No details of the charges against Arbuth- not are yet known here, but his arrest has caused almost as much excitement as the tragic suicide of P. MacFadyen, head of the allied firm of P. MacFad- yen & Co., in October last. IN PRESENCE OF PATRONS Double Tragedy Occurs in a Chicago Restaurant. * Chicago, May 3.—J. E.

As Beaumont resumed the at- tack Burgeson fired four times at him, three bullets taking effect. Both men dropped to the floor. Beaumdnt was faken to the county hospital, where he died two hours later. Burgeson was taken to the Presbyterian hospital, where physi- cians said he probably would die. Defending Sanctity of Home.
