Bowles has an homest open countenance withal, and the change which camie over sd with bis wihioke general appeard ch was one of abject submission and re . could not fail- to gawke i 1 pross who saw him. It certainly aff he attorneys for the de- fence and the prisoners, al of whom eyed him Turtively as bie sut across the room. and it was i to sve they wrded the future of 4he trial with anyth but ple nt Bowlos' between At ahe an th them in carnest convers [ s who knew Bowles gazed with any but friendly looks, and, b hicads close to: gether, whispered conjectures ‘anong them selves.

Urupted him with “sit down and pr 1 with «ighe cose.” There was a more dramatic scene to follow, JMr. Ewing asked that the case be continued Monday morning, as the was not ady' o pro- goc. uhue opposed the o fae MIL s very strange pause thoy ‘have mduced tuis to go ina private cor wtion with yors and the rallroad wngnites ide of the case, thut they should not be ready to-day, although they wer “rens erday. 4 Mr. Ewing said it was for the interess of 3 stice that ho desired time, o, “Of course,’ suid Mr. Hoyne; “if the _furtherance demands it, it will have to be nted.” Before the last word had fallen from the “tpommissioner's lips, Bowles arose from his “oghair and took a few steps toward the cour With his head turned toward the judge aud < half uvoided from the waze of the spectators, 5 who were astonished by the sudden actior .»\mh bis right hand outstretched in the att 0 of appeal and in & voice that seemed resolute but yet trembled in its tone, he said: S apeak in the interest of justice, your ‘bonor. This will be for the wood of the blic. All that I will say here should have 3 told long ago, and what I will tell will : l{bu for the sake of justice and to prove "fl‘n Tam an innocent man.” Bowles' voice broke as he fimshed the sen- ce, aud the tears rolled dowu his bronze eeks, while emotion that he could not co ) shook the splendid proportions of his gmassive frame. Bowles 1s a powerful man— Bt least six feet high—and looked a giant among the slightly builtlawyors and railroad men by whom.he was surrounded. When he fook his scut he wived nis eyes with a red |, ootton handkerchief and leaned his head on 9 back of his chair, Poor Bowies was s roken down, s Mr. Donabue sald, with a sareastic smil ~®As Mr. Howles is not in this case, [ _ pume we may go on. Mr. Donahue wanted to know whether bail " “wyould be fixed in Bowles case. “His brother 18 here and hus rotained us,” he said, BLae " Mr. Ewing objected, that Mr, Donahue * " was not Mr. Bowles' altorney.

When ho closed the court declaved the case ad journed to Monday at 10 o'clock. Bowles was 1 hat Marsh's offce and af- od on 5,000 bail by Commis- sioner Hoyne.

He had a spression on his countenance, and in answer to an inquiry asto its cause he said : “The conference committee on the Omaha building bill reported back to both houses. It has been a long time coming, but we have at t got it out of the conterenc “How does it stand " “The conference committee recommends the passage of the bill providing for the pur- e of a site and the erection of a building at a total cost of £1,200,000, Of this amount one-third 1s fixed us the limt of the cost of the site.* “Is the provision left in the bill which au- thorizes the use of the old structire ns head quarters for the department of the Mis sourit “It is. * The bill is practically the same as that which originally passed the senate. The report will be made and called up in the houase as soon as the tariff bill is out of the way.”? “Laotice,” continued Mr. McShane, “that there is impression in Omaha that the fort bill was amended by reducing the amount of the appropiiation in the . house. Thigidea is crroncous, The original senate bill provided for the purchase of a site and the erection of the necessary buildmgs at a total cost of $300,000: The house bill was identical with the senate bill and the former was substituted in order to avoid delay, 1t wus amended at the 1ast moment by the . in- sertion of a clause providing that the site shall not cost more than one third of the sum appropriated, but that sum was mot reduced one dollar, - On the contrary it remains 'in the bill how in the president’s hands, ox- actly As it came from the senate.

He argued that a high tariff had no in- fluence upon the price of wool, which was regulated by the law of supply aud demand. Mr. A. Follette, of Wisconsin, took up and criticised Mr. Carlisle’s speech upon the bill, especially that portion in which the speaker endoavored to show prosperity of the coun- ng the low tariff decade from 1850 to He said that the gentleman, in select- ing articles upon which to show the percent- age of incroase, had selected articles which, with one excevtion, were not touched by the act of 1346, He trifled with the facts when he said that this country recovered from the ion of 1357 in a few months, osvenor referred to the dgercase of !l industry in Ohio, and the great falling off in tho price of wool, and said that it was due to the menuce of the Mills bill, r. said that it was 10 choose between ) whiskey or cheup clothing, The wool wps burdensome.
