CoolrsviLLE, Jan. 11. --- The climax
of the inquest in the Williams murder
case was reached yesterday. The ver
-
diet of the coroner's jury in the Williems
murder ease was as follows: "That James
and. Eliza Williams were foully murdered,
and that William MaoWlierrell and John
Walker are guilty ref the murder and
George Butcher is aecessory after the feet."
Cory was honorably discharged.
The proceedings begam sharp on time.
The small room was filled. to its utmost
etepaeLenegi'eing evidence that the villagers
have got tired- ofe evolving theories, and.
now are confining themselves entirely to
fads_ The coroner in addressing the jury
went over the evidence given at previous
sittings, and toolc occasion to severely
critieize the press for their reproof of his
dilatoriness at the last sitting.
Frederica. Death, a farmer who lies on
the Lake Shore road, two miles from the
Williams' house, identified Walker as a
man who had. worked for him. for two
'weeks two years ago last fall. The wit-
ness said. that Walker ransaeked his house
and stole a double-barrelled gun and some
money. The Crown regarded.this evi-
dence as important, as it went to show
that Walker had probably known the mbr-
dered couple and it was he, perhaps, in.
stead of Jahn Cory who gave the mur-
derer the information about old. man
Williams and his wife.

'WASIIINDT014-, Jan. 13. -The tariff bill

especially antagonized by this bill. The
Wilson bill is entitled. 'A bill to reauce
• taxation, to provide revenue' and for other
purposes.' It should. be entitled 'A bill
to 'reduce the revetue and to destroy
A.merican industry.'"
Mr. Brookshire asked of Mr. Herman
from *what countries the inapottation of
farm procluets were likely to come.
"From Scotland, Denmark and Sweden,
but espeeially from Canada," replied Mr.
Herman.
Mr. Brookshire said the statistics of the
A.grioultural Department showed the.t in
1891- the American farmers sold to Can-
adians more farm produce than the Can-
adian farmers sold to America, -
• Dr. Herman said he had. later Statistics
than those quoted by Mr. • Brookehire,

OTTAWA, Tan. 12. -The committee ap-
pointed by the Woolen_ Manufaeturers'
Association waited on the tariff committee
yesterday and presented a mass of figures
and statistics aleowing the • growth of the
business in Canada and how it is affected
by the present tariff. The manufacturers'
committee, after they left the Ministers,
said that they had. not the slightest idea
what the Government intended doing in
regard to their partioular industry. Mr.
H. W. Heneker, president of the Paton
Woolen Mills Co. of Sherbrooke, and son-
in-law of the late Sir John Abbott, -who is
a member of the committee before referred.
to, was asked. if the woolen manufacturers
-could get along with less taeiff protection .
than tkiernow enjoyed. He said. :• "'No,
the outlook for the woolen trade of Can-
ada is very gloomy as it is. Our company
has not paid. a dividend for three years,
though we have meaaaged to keep the mills
going, and have not reduced the wages of
our employes. Our market is limited to
Canada, and as wool is free now the Gov-
ernment cannot help us by abolishing the
duties on raw materials. In view of the
reductions in the cost of English and
German woolen clothes, we could not
stand a reduction of the tariff, and the
closing.of our ming would be a sad thing
for Sherbrooke and the eastern town-

A TRUE BILL.
Returned by the Grand Jury in the An-
drews' Abortion Case.
TOronTo, Jan. 11. --The case against
Ransome T. Andrews ("Doc."), Alice An -
draws and. Cassie Andrews, charged with
the murder of Lucy Denning, came up in
the Assize Cant here yesterday. The
Grand Jury returned a true bill.
W. R. Meredith, Q.C.'appeared in sup-
port of the application to have the ease re-
manded until next aSSiZeS, on the grounds
that the evidence of Nellie Lafontaine,
Mary Jane O'Connell and May Denning
was not allowed to be furnished to the de-
fence until Tuesday, giving their lawyers
little time to prepare. The judge, how-
ever, would not grant the demand, but in
order to give the defence -some time to pre-
pare, he allowed. the ease to go over until
Monday.
Toronto, Jan. 12. -The Grand Jury
found e true bill against Dell Andrews
yesterday as aceessoey after the fact on the
grounds that Dell Andrews, knowing that
R. I. Andrews, Alice Andrews and. Cassie
Andrews had performed an. unlawful
operation on Lucy Denning, had unlaw-
fully harbored the criminals and assiated
them to escape.
The Crawn waa not ready to go on with
the ease so it was decided to leave it over
until the March SOSSiOrl, His bail Wag re-
