She had aeeu Scollle In the house when she retired the night of the fire, bho and her ulster ilcuaio slept hi " bedroom downstairs In which there waa two beds, lior mother and two brothets occupied tho othor bed. There were two stoves in tho house, one In the kitchen and another In tho room wh-re -thoy slept. On tha morning of the (ire the witness said she waa awakened by wnoke in the room. She awakened her mother, who rose, lit the lamp and started toward the door. The mother tried to open tho door leading to the hall, but tho flames drove her bvck* Tho mother got the ax from be hind the bureau and broke the win dow and they all scrambled out an best they could. The witness and hot- brother were ajmout naked .until they could put on sumo of tho clotlrntg the mother thiew out of the window to them. When they got dressed they went over to McGregor's. Tho wltnetn said that Scollle waa In the habit of reading after he hud gone to bed, A long crosa-examinatlon by Mr. Clute f. Ued to nnako the testimony of tho witness In any particular. "Be- cauHe Mr. Bumham was a rich man and wo did not like to go therewith no dressLi on," was the reason the witness assigned for passing Burn- ham's and going to McGregor's to give the alarm. Tommie Gray, the chubby-faced 11- year-old brother followed. He said that the night of the fire he and his mother went out to the barn to do the chores and when they came in Si ollio had gone to bed. Ilia story of the ordei of events on the morning of the flro was substantially the same as that told by hln sister. To .'Is Dordshlp tho witness mild after ho and his moth er cr mo Into the houne they had a drink of ten, made some ahnvlntffl and went to bed. In answer to Mr. Clute, ho said the only fire that was In the house when thoy went to bed waa In the kitchen stove. The little fellow gave his evi dence in a manner that hnprofmed those who heard him with Its truth fulness. When ho stepped from tho witness box Mr. Stratton called for the noxt witness, when His Lordship interpos ed and said he did not think the case should go any further, unloss the jury men wanted to have some further evi dence. The jurymen shook their heads, and one of tholr number rose from his seat and expressed tho opin ion that enough had already been said. " Tho case was very weak at the clone of tho Crown's testimony," said the Chancellor, " and whatever suspicious circumstances were brought out have been set nt rest by the evidence of these children. They told tho story In a straightforward manner, and I am sure everyone believed them. If you do believe them there eottalnly was no murder." In reply to a question from lila Lord ship, Mr Clute said he did not desire to Bay anything to the Jury, as hu was cntlroly nt tho discretion of the court. Turning afirain to the jury His Lordship explained to them thai Mr. Clute was there only to see jus tice done, ns he and they were. " Th* death of Scollle was peculiar, and cer tainly should have been Investigated," continued His Lordship. "Th# threats made by tho prisoner and hei husband wore very foolish, very wick ed, but do not convict them of crime It seems highly Improbablo that lit could have boon murdered there and leave no signs of a struggle, no blood, lie was a strong, healthy man, very vigorous. Mrs Gray wns there all alone, within two months of confine ment, and It Is inofedible that she could have committed the deed," When His Lordship diroctod tho Jury to return a verdict of not guilty, tho court-room was Imediately filled with a doafonlng aplauso. whlph neither the sheriff nor his officers made any at tempt to quell. Mrs. Gray was mov ed to tears by tho announcement of her acquittal. There is still a charge of murder against Gray, ond a charge of'aradn aeralhst both prlponora. >ut these will In all probability be dropped. v i- AtaUD4eft' nw* mi iufJiyil^ <Kxpm|IiI*.

Tho soundings developed the fict that the Eehrlnjg Sea bawin is a vast sunken plain, ^\ hich is chnrractorlstlc Of all tlw great bodies oX water. Commander Drake mjide a careful examination of th^ rookeries, in Prlbl- loff Islunds and aluo of the extensive rookeries on Behrlng Island. Of the American position he says : "i am convinced that the rookeries are fist being depleted and that the virtual extinction of the seals Is a question of only a few years. If their slaughter Is permitted to continue an at present. The catch thin year will not vary ttvuch from that of last year. 1 dis covered no violation of the law, and bclleae that the sealers are generally Inclined to rcspoet Its provisions," In dlscuaalng Comnumlcr Drake's assertion regarding the location of the Siberian coast, otiKlala of tho Coan and Geological Survey cay they are not surprised at the stutoment. Con sidering the character of the appliances and the general conditions that ob tained when the surveys -of the Siber ian eaaat, to which Commander Drake refers, were mode, the co^st f\\ ve - of ficials say It would be a matur o surprise if there were not more scioi s errors tlian the location of a line 1 mllea out of place, committed.
