At Hamilton, Mont., John Goodson has been acquitted of the charge of murdering John Parks. Parks and Good-sowere neighbors. Goodson had for some time been missing articles of various sorts from his cabin and suspected Parks. He posted a notice on his door that he would be gone for the day, and then, instead of going away, hid himself in a clump oi bushes, expecting Parks to come that way. It is alleged that he caught Parks in the act of burglarizing the cabin and killed him. Youth Found Murdered. Murder and robbery were revealed when Charles Horton, a Standard Electric company patrolman found the body of a youth, less than 20 years old, lying on the ground close to the Standard poles. In a ploughed field about two miles southwest of Stock-ton- , Cal., a knife wound in the throat and his pockets Inside out. That it Is a case of murder there can be no doubt.

It can be said authoritatively that no decision will be reached as to such action either at a regular or at an extraordinary session of the Fifty-nintcongress until the subject has been considered thoroughly by the president and hts cabinet and his political friends.
