Judge Connor first saying to Col. Nichols, "mucn obliged to you." as he ascended the bench, as the United States Marshal announced: "Hla Honor, the Judge of the Unit ed States Circuit and District Court." Close upon this followed tht an nouncement of the Court Crier, "Oh yes, ,0 yes. the United States Court tor the Eastern District of North Car olina is now convened for business.

For his-induction into office he wore a black suit, long serge sack coat, a white vest, a low turned collar with a large black tie. Without the robe usually worn by P1 dses he Pfe8,.ded ihZ court looking none the less dignified, and is none 'the less able. As an incident of the event and of the ceremonies it is learned that the Bible used in giving the oath to Judge Connor, a small one. was bought by United States Commissioner Nichols especially for the occasion, and that Col.

State and the United States' laws were drawn, in this Judge Connor said that up to a short time ago there had been danger In the conflict of State and Uni ted States' laws as to whiskey, as at one time the State had legalized Its sal.e but now that the State says that no saie or manufacture or whiskey is to be allowed the matter Is simplified. Where there is liquor sold or ma I North Carolina the State savs there should be indictment, and in the same matter the United States government, which calls for revenue from the aal or manufacture, does not attempt to deal with the moral side of the ques tion, but only with the revenue side. The illisit distillery, he said, is in con flict with both the State and the I'nited States laws. In this connec tion he he-Id that the farmer should Pnd no need to make his corn into liquor, that It was not necessary to keep away want and that the corn should be used as corn and not as liluor. that an enlightened public sen timent in North Carolina has called for the suppressifn of the liquor traf fic and the manufacture of whiskey, the law enacted meeting the approval of the people. As to the Federal law his position he declared to be that no manufacturers of whiskey could use the railroad or the express companies as a collector for them and that -the law did not permit the delivery of li quor packages to these who bad not ordered It The matter of peonage was dis cussed by Judge Connor at the close of his charge, and he declared that the Lnited States Constitution permits no involuntary servitude,' except for the commission of crime and this through the medium of the courts. It was his declaration that imprisonmnent for debt Is a thing not to be allowed, whether this imprisonment be In a Jail, or the forcing of the debtor to ren der service to pay for the debt, the doing of this, declared Judge Connor. teing only a subterfuKe to.escaDethe law against involuntary servitude and iwlng for the same purpose. Judge Connor amplified hi ;Y4wirla the mat ter -of. peonage, and read-aii extract from aMMptnion wfftten b? thhif 'Jus tice Walter Clark. 6f the North Caro lina Supreme Court, saying that this was a clear exposition of his views in the matter, and that the Interpreta tion made by the Chief .Justice was io nim a correct one. His discourse on peonuge closed his remarks to . the grand Jury. Tlie .Details of the Court Among the first matters called to the attention of the court was one concerning'. a demurrer Jo. Its juris diction In a certain case. In which Mr. ames H. Pou. up pea red as special counsel, the opposing counsel being Col. John W. Hinndale. The papers In the case had been agreed to by the counsel and they were signed by Judge Connor, who. In so doing, said to Mr. Pou with a smile, "this Is the first paper I have signed in this court and hope you will be- mo for tunate as to have others by con sent" To this Mr. Pou replied. And your honor, . to have decrees signed that have been won in court" The case which is to be heard first on demurrer to jurisdiction is one In which Charles Frelbourg and his wife, Charlotte Frelbourg. of Paris, France, are suing the Pullman Car Company. The allegation I that the Frelbourgs took a Pullman car at Jersey City, for Wilmington. N. C paying U 14.00 for a berth, that en route- they were robbed by the porter, who stolo a casket of Jewels valued at 110.000. Suit was brought against the Pullman Company In the United States Court for the Rastern District of North Carolina, but the Pullmans deny Its jurisdiction, saying that neither plaintiffs or defendants are citizens of this district that the Frelbouru live in Paris, und that the offices of the Pullman Company are In ChlcaKo, that no suit can be brought except in that district Mr. Pou makes a special appearance for the Pullmans to argue the demurrer' a to Jurisdiction and Col. John W. Hins dale appears for the Frelbourgs. Tlie Day In tlie Court. The cases during the day were of the "clearing away for action" kind und business was transacted rupidly.
