Amid the applause of a crowd that filled the courtroom Mrs. Bradley, with tear dimmed eyes, was discharged from custody and a trial that has evoked national attention during the past three weeks was at an end. Throughout its dcliberations the Jury practically stood at 11 to 1 for acquittal until the final ballot, when the lone juror who was holding out for some form of punishment, Juror Julius H. Prigg, gave in and the ver- | dict of acquittal was agreed on. Immediately after the jury deliv- ered its verdict the court thanked the jury for the manner in which it had performed its duty and the jury fn turn, through fits foreman, ox- pressed to the court and counsel its thanks for the consideration and cour- tesy showa them.

She thanked them for their congratulations and expressed her re- lief at the conclusion of her trial. Meantime an automobile was waiting at a side door and through a. lane of curious spectators she was escorted to the car, where, joined by her coun- sel and several women friends, smil- ing and bowing to them as they called to her, she left the courthouse. The party returned shortly after- ward, but remained outside the build- ing only a few minutes and then left for the home of some of Mrs. Brad- ley’s friends. Mrs. Bradley herself had little to say. She expressed grati- tude over the outcome of the trial, which she had confidently anticipated, end when asked what plans she had replied that there was very little mapped out. Mrs. Bradley will leave bere shortly for Goldfield, Nev., there to join her sister, : HIS COACHMAN KILLED. Attempt to Assassinate President of Guatemala.

Al- ready Baron Ishii, one of the secre- taries of the Japanese interior depart- ment, has made an investigation of VISCOUNT AOKI. conditions existing not only in Call- fornia, Oregon and Washington, but also in British Columbia on the north, upon Which he has based a special | report to his government. But it is believed that the purpose of the Japa- nese goverument in summoning Vis- count Aoki to Tokio is to secure from him information which Baron Ishii could not possibly have acquired dur- ing his short stay in America regard- ing the attitude of the administration here with particular reference to the measures which have recently been applied by the Japanese government to restrict the departure from Japan for America of the coolie element. Also the Japanese government desires a prudent forecast of the likelihood | of congressional action in the direc- tlon of legislation providing for the exclusion of Japanese immigration. TAFT AT ST.

Chicago, Dec, 4.—A dispute between the Chicago board of trade and the Miuneapolis chamber of commerce oVer a question of payment of quota- tions came to light when the market report committee of the local ex- change issued orders to the Western Union Telegraph company to discon- tinne posting Minneapolis quotations on bulletin hoards in the trading hall on which prices in all outside markets are recorded, The rupture between the two or- ganizations ig sald to have followed an ultimatum by the Minneapolis ex- change to the effect that it would no longer pay half the tolls on quota- tions sent out to Chicago and other markets. As Minneapolis prices are closely watched at this time of the year, when the movement of spring wheat is heavy, the discontinuance of quotations caused considerable incon- venience among traders. By some of the leading brokers it was sald, how- ever, that the result would be bene- ficial to the Chicago market, as a good many local firms have hereto- fore sent a good deal of business to the Northern exchange which will be forced to discontinue doing so in the ahsence of quotations. NO CUT IN MEAT PRICES Retailers Say Wholesalers Are Mak: ing No Reductjon. Chicago, Dec. 4.—S8ol Westerfeld, president of the Retail Merchants’ as- sociation, has issued a statement ex- plaining the meat situation from the standpoint of the retail dealers. In general he denied that the packers had made any reduction in meat prices to the dealers during the last few weeks. “No material reduction has come to us as yet,” he said. “We have vis- ited the packers time and time again and asked, even demanded, a reduc- tion, for we felt that the consumer had a right to the benefit of the low prices of cattle and hogs on the hoof. The packers have put us off, saying that next week, perhaps, the reduc- tion would come. ‘Next week’ never has come. “As a matter of actual fact good beef, native cattle, is as high to us as it was last summer. There is no question of the wholesaler here, for we deal directly with the branch houses of Swift and Armour and the others. The peculiar part of it is that the prices in each of these houses are the same every day.” Colonel Whipple Promoted. Washington, Dec. 4—The president has sent t the senate the nomination of Colonel Charles H.
