LI3X2LLTXVX 1CT1C1T. Soma Lawj Of Chntral InporUaca. Among the acts of the Lsgialatare of 1893 the act dividing the crime of murder into two degrees is of the first importance. Prior to this the law made no distinction between a homicide with a deadly weapon, upon s'ight provecation and in anger, and a deliberate and premeditated kill ing from ambush; but punished both with death. Under this con strnction of the law many who de served punishment escaped, beeaase jurors were unwilling: to bang the prisoner and had to choose between hanging him and turning bin loose. The new set doej not disturb the law of man-slaugLter, but divides the crime of murder into two de green, making deliberate and pre meditated murders and murders committed while attempting to com mit burglary and other ftlonies, murder in the first degree and pan' ishable with death, and other mur ders,' murder in the second de gree and punishable with imprison mentin the penitentiary for not lets than five ncr more than thirty years. A kindred piece of legislation is the bill to prevent lynching, wbish requires the Solicitor of the district when persons have been taken from jail and lynched to go at once to the place and investigate, with power to summon witnesses etc, and with an thority to bind over the accased to the Superior Court of an adjoining county for trial. This bill also makes it the doty ef any county commissioner, when a lynching is threatened, and upon application, to authorize the employment of a suf ficient guard "by the sheriff; and upon failure to do so the county is liable for any injury to the prisoner. Another law worthy of considers tion is one regulating assignments. The frequency of frauds in assign ments has injured our credit abroad and has done mnch to daman the reputation of ear people. The new law does not interfere with the right to prefer a creditor, but undertakes to throw obstacles- in the way of fraudulent practioes. A merchant who intends to com mit a fraud usually buys a large stock on sixty, ninety and one hun dred and twenty days time, comes home and begins to sell for cash. Before bis debts become due he as signs, generally to an insolvent per son, and within ten days, before the creditors can assemble, the assignee hs sold the stock, paid out the money and settled the trust. The new law provides that upon the registsation of a deed of assign ment all debts of the maker shall become doe at once; that the assign- ee snail not sen tne property in bulk, except such as is perishable, within less than ten days; that the assiguee shall file with the clerk a sworn inventory and quarterly and annual accounts; that the maker of the deed shall file with the clerk a sworn statement that the debts se cured in the deed are due; that the assignee shall not pay any amount to any creditor until such creditor shall first file with the clerk a sworn statement of bis claim; that the clerk, upon the sworn complaint of any creditor, alleging tbeinsolvency of an assignee, shall, upon being satisfied that he ii insolvent, lequire him to give bond, and in default of bond stall rtmoye him and appoint some suitable person who shall give bond. Sufficient penalties an at tached' to secure obedience to the aw. Another law of general import ance relates to land titles. There are many cases in which person la in possession of a tract of land, and some pthefe)toho has no valid title s.ts up a claim to it, The party cTaimutgU Ui cot bnpgnactioo l- ti tj try the title, but by. his claim throws a clpad our the tiw sand thereby depreciates the value of the land and prevents the person in pos session from borrowing money on the land or selling it. The old law provided no remedy for this case, because the party was in possession of the land and could not bring his action to recover the possession. The tew law provides that in such case the party in pos sion may bring his action to establish his title, (but provides that if tht party against wnom tne action is brought files no answer and makes no defease, he Shall not be required to pay any costs. (Continued.) WASHINGTON N1WS. The Had, Mad Bush Tot Office- Washington, March 8. The period of perfunctory visiting hss pasaed, and the greater number of politicians who called on Presi dent Cleveland to-day were bent on business. Each had bis sxe to grind, either lor himself or for some constituent, and applications for office were filed by the score. The President was up-betimer, and when he entered his private office there were numbers of cards on his table, with the names they bore waiting expectantly in the Cabinet Room. Mr. Cleveland saw nearly all who came, and de voted a few minutes to each. Those who were in a hurry saw Private Secretary Thnrber, and he soon bad his hands full attending to their Wants. Cleveland was too bnsy op-stairs in the tori noon re ceiving the more distinguished vis itore to see the general public, and the East Room contingent wmt away disappointed. The Virgiuii delegation, consisting of Senator liunton and Representatives W me and Meredith presented the name of Jodge John Ooode, of Virginia, for the Solicitor Generalship. Goode was Solicitor General under the first Cleveland Administration, and after Cleveland's election last November his name was promi nently' mentioned iu connection itb the Attorney Generalship in the Cabinet. Shortlr after 12 o'clock the President went down stairs and shook hands with a crowd of peo ole in the East Room, about 400 ! L- Secretary Uar lisle to-day ac cepted the proposition of the e'ear- intr bouse of Uenver, Uoi., to ex change one million of Treasury netee of the issne of 18tt0, for one million in eold. This will increase the free gold in the Treasury to 12.125.000. Mr. Carlisle has taken do stepe to issue bonds and has not iadicated what policy he will pursue. The members or the Democratic Caucus Committee were in session to-day six and a half hours, with out making np the committee lists. The next meeting will be held sub' ject to the call of Mr. Gorman, and ! . it-i.i--.;ii . : it is not uuiiKeiv vui u iue tweiuu of the Senate to-morrow is short, the committee may get together again in the afternoon. 8ome head war was made, but the eomratttee has only began to see its way clear to the successful performance of the work that is before it. One thing that can be stated with positivenees is that nothing has yet been done in the matter ot tne elective omcers oi the Senate, and it is doubtfnl if anything of this kind will be taker, np for many days. It is under stood that while the precedents of the Senate will be adhered to in many reipects, the chairmanships will notjgo in every case to the ranking Senator of the Democratic membership of the committee as in the last Senate. The geogra phical location of the members is beincconsldeted in the distribution of the favored places, and an inno ration la being suggested In the shape of a scheme which will put Senators at the head of the recent minority list, bnt who, by reason of their qualifications, are fitted to do tne work mat win come oeiore those committees. It is also not unlikely that one or more minority committees of the Senate may be wiped oot, aa4 if this is done, it will reduce the number of chair manships the Republicans will hive. Nothing definite, however, hss been accomplished in any direc tion, A prominent member of the caucus committee said this after noon that until the Senate was organ zd, at least so fares the committees were concerned, there weuld be no action upon any no mjnations the President might send io. For this reason it was imperative that the canons com mittee should do its work as fast as possible. If the President should send in any nominations tomor row they will be compelled to lay over under this construction, mntil the complete committees have been agreed upon. The session of the Senate, therefore, will be brief on lesd the body sees fit to take np res solution that were Introduced Monday at the opening session. This may precipitate discussion re latiye to the logaHty of such legis lation in an extra session, called tor the purpose of confirming Pres idential nominations. The Republicans were resting on their oars, simply awaiting final action by the Democrats. After they hare been made acquainted with the intentions of tbemsjority, Mr. Allison's committee will re some its labors and indoavor to provide for those Republicans who are entitled to minority chairman ihiptv Assistant Secretary Soloey of the Navy tendered his resignation to Secretary Herbert today. Solney's resignation, it is under stood, is to take effect immediately His successor, it is stated, will be named to-morrow, and from pre sent indications there is little doubt that he will be exRepresen tative McAdoo. cf New Jersey. One ot the earliest callers this morning was Re?. Dr. O'Gorman, Professor of Ecclesiastical History st the Catholio university of A met ica, who presented to Private Sec retary 1 barber a letter from Arch bishop Satolli, Papal Legate to America. congratulating Mr, Cleveland on his accession to the Presidency, "particularly in the letter was written in Enclith on the official letter head of the Oath olic University. Senator Lindsay of Kentucy, came with T. C. Allen, of bis State and asked Mr. Cleveland to appoint the latter Assistant Post master-General. Chief Justice Dennett, of Ke ni tucky, who came with Congress man Stone, merely paid h s hid specta to Cleveland. Judge Ben nett's elaims will probably oe pre sented for the Circuit Judgesre left vacant by the promotion of Judffo Jackson to the Supreme Bench, Some of the Illinois Congress ional delegation came with ex Congressman Scott Wike, who wants to be Comptroller of the Currency. Secretary Carlisle has accepted the resignation of Col. J. R. Weber, CommUsioner of Immigration at New York. He is the onlr prom inet official who has formally re signed, though several In the Treas ury Department building have placed their resignations at the disposal of Secretary Carlisle. From an early hour this morn ing until lunch time Secretary Greshsm was engaged at the State Department receiving visitors. Earthquake- Lono Islabd Crrr., March 8. All Long Islanders seem to hare felt what is now supposed to have been an earthquake, at 12.30 o'clock this morning. At Long Island City the shock was espec ially severe in many instances shaking pictures from the walls and creating havoc among china ware and bricabrac At many points people fled in terror from their booses settling or falling.
