FORD'S Matinees Wed. and Sat. Big Miller Who Imports Wheat Has String Tied To Tariff Tax. (Continued from Page 1) ency tariff act put a duty of 25 cents per bushel on wheat. Their permanent tariff act placed this duty at 30 cents, but under both laws, every importer who expects the same wheat or like wheat, is entitled to= a drawback of ninety-nine per cent, of all the duty paid. Now the only importers of wheat are the big mill men, who export more wheat and flour than they import, so that 99-100 of all the wheat tax collected is refunded, but if any farmer imports Canadian wheat for seed hei pays the duty and there is no drawback. "This wheat duty was the backbone of the Republican emergency tariff bill and was carried over into their permanent Tariff act, to gull the Western farmer. It is a fraud which the farmers ought to understand. The same fraud exists in many other duties. For example, the Standard Oil Company can prosper under any duty on crude or refined oil, because should they import any of it they would get 99 per cent, of the tax they pay refunded to them, while the tax would enable them to boost oil prices to non-exporters. The United States Steel Corporation can pay any tax on 'iron ore and iron ore products they export and get back all the tax they pay, while they boost prices to the home consumers. This drawback clause of the tariff acts demonstrate that the tariff is of, by and for the great big capitalists." JURY TO ACT ON AFFAIR, MONDAY. SHOOTING MERCHANTS ACTIVE.

(Continued from Page 1) place in Woodensburg, on the Hanover turnpike; he was a very disagreeable fellow and he treated his wife as a slave, and was regarded as a very cruel master. In that year there was a very heavy snow; there has probably never been one like it since in this section, and it was very cold, and it kept cold for a long period and there was snow on snow until it was so deep and so hard that roads and fences were not regarded, but persons would go in their sleighs in a straight line in any direction—that snow for many years was referred to as the "Adam Horn snow," and some of the very old people still refer to it in that way. It was late in the Spring before there was a thaw sufficient to remove it. During that long winter no one ever saw Mrs. Horn, and her absence finally began to be the subject of gossip in the neighborhood—finally when the thaw came, some hunters saw dogs digging up something in the Horn garden, and upon examination, it was found to be a woman's limb; there was an immediate investigation. A great part of the body w?.s recovered and the identity of Mrs. Horn fully established. The old reprobate had cut her in pieces and buried them before the snow came, but he made the mistake of digging her grave too shallow. Another case that attracted widespread attention was the Watts case. Edwin C. Watts lived in Baltimore City; by reason of his cruelty and failure to give his wife any support, she was compelled to leave him and seek employment. She went to Phoenix, on the Northern Central Railroad, and secured employment in the cotton factory, and was happier than she had been for years. He found out where she was, took an early train from the City, and watched the women going to work, and when his wife came along he shot and killed her; he was indicted in this County and his case was removed to Harford County for trial; he was convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to be hanged. He appealed the case and there was a reversal growing out of an error in the indictment, which gave him a new trial, the case was then sent to Ellicott City, Howard County, where for some reason, known only to the jury, he was convicted of murder in the second degree and served 18 years in the penitentiary. On September 24, 191 to McCauley, who resicldBjPPPTth. her husband at Arlington, was tried for the murder of her husband; the testimony showed a long-period of ill-treatment and unhappiness, culminating in an encounter in which he met his death; the jury brought in a verdict of not guilty. Cora Johnson, colored, was tried in this Court in May, 1906, for the murder of her husband; it seemed to be a case of fifty-fifty between them and the jury found her guilty of murder in the second degree, and the sentence of the Court was six years in the penitentiary. in case of indictment in the Fedeli case, the trial will no doutt attract ciowds—from best information, it will be tried early in November. It is said that State Senator William Curran will defend her. : X ,». i A t, % x I !

Nothing in this Company's actions before the Commission justifies such an impression. C The operations of this Company are confined to a State-wide service in Maryland, but our patrons' requirements for communication to and from other parts of the country necessitate our connecting with the lines of other telephone companies. This requires contractual relations for the interchange of telephone traffic with the American Telephone & Telegraph Company, which operates the Long Lines system of the country, as well as with other telephone companies in adjoining States with which business is directly interchanged. C Our Company also has other long-established contractual relations with the American Telephone & Telegraph Company. These are known to everyone and in all their phases have been considered a number of times by the Maryland Commission in previous cases. C Appreciating that these relationships are properly matters of interest in the present case, we have furnished the Commission all information requested of us in connection with them and have offered to furnish any additional information which the Commission desires to have before it in considering their reasonableness and propriety as affecting our telephone operations in Maryland. d There is no relationship with any other telephone company with which we deal about which all pertinent information cannot be had from our books and records and which will not be reflected through cur witnesses. ¥/e ask the public to be patient until we have the opportunity to present cur case and in the meantime not to believe that we are in any v/ay opposing the Commission's right to have all the facts before it in considering this important matter.
