ARGUMENT RESUMED.
THE SUPREME OCRT BOOM FULL
OF PEOPLK TO UEB THE AK-
A Kl HINTS' CASE. B
Judge Grlnnell Pays Particular At
tentlon to (lie Illinois Jury Law.
By TeleuTnpn to TH chkomcl
Washington, D. C, 0t. 28. The
Supreme Court room was again
crowded to-day when argument in
the anarchists' case was resumed.
Not a moment was lost after the
judges had taken their seats. Prompt
ly at noon, before taking up the case,
Attorney General Hunt, of Illinois,
arose and stated that as his argu
ment was practically concluded when
the court adjourned he would not
speak tc-day, but that his associate,
Judge Gnnnell, would proceed with
tlieir fide of the case. Judge Grinnell
then spoke for three qu liters of an
h"ur, paying particular attention to
the jury law of Illinois and the com
position of the jury that found a ver
dict against the anarchists. He ar
gued that there was no federal ques
tion raised in the case; that the
amendment to the federal constitu
tion had no application, and that the
14th amendment conferred no juris
diction to the court in this case.
General Butler closed with a long
argument, in. which he claimed That
as Spies was a citizen of Germany,
and Fielden a British subject, they
were entitled to be tried under the
laws which existed at the time the
United States made treaties with
these powers ; treaties were supreme
laws of the land, so declared by the
constitution, aod the statute of Illi
nois in reference to the qualifications
of jurors had abrogated the common
law in respect to their competency.
Therefore these men had been
deprived of immunities contrary to
the provisions of the 14th amend
ment. Gen. Butler in concluding
compl -ined that by the course that
the case had been made to take in
the Supreme Court, the hearing was
upon an imperfect, diminisht-d and
untrue record coming from -the Illi
nois Supreme Court. This record
showed that a new trial had been
asked for in the Supreme Court of
that State. That motion was over
ru!ed. The record then proceeds to
state that all the parties, prison r
and all concerned, appeared in t he
Idinois Supreme Court. That the
order to overrule the motion for a
new trial was then made and seven
of the prisoners were sentenced to be
handed. The record did not show
that the prisoners or their counsel
were present at the time of sentence
aa in fact they were not. He was
ready to verify these things when
ever he could have an opportunity to
do so, on a (motion for certiorari to
have the record amended. If it was
due process of law in this country
that men. not being outlaws, can be
sentenced to death in their abscenee
from the court, being shut up in
prison, which hid never been done in
court in auv civilized country
before and if the highest court
m the land could not correct
his then it was a question to be
seriously considered which is to Le
pretened, such process of law or
anarchy.' Gen. Butler finished h s
rgumi)t at ntteen minutes ti
o'clock. This close 1 the case and
tlie court at once pioceeded with the
docket and at 4 p m adjourned unti
Monday next. It is expected tnt
the court will give their decision on
the anarchists case very soon, prob
ably within a few days.

A CCRIOrS LAW Sl'IT.
Judge Knight's Sinter to Rue Ilia Estate
for Recovery or Honey, .
Marietta, Ga., Oct. 27. A law
suit is to be instituted against the
estate of the late Judge N B. Knight,
by Mrs. M. Hi fowler, of Arkansas,
sister to Judge Knight, for the recov
ery of 3,0u) and interest for 27
years, which would make it about
$8,000. It is claimed that the
amount was trust money under a will
trojij Mrs. Towlers father, and that
Judge Knight was made trustee
under tne will to keep Mrs. Towler s
husband from handling the money.
Judge Knight's wife claims to hoid
receipts from the husband of Mrs.
Towler in settlement of the claim,
but it l-i tatd the will does not recog
nize Towler's right t t receipt for the
money. Equities are claimed on both
sides. R. iS. Holland has been em
ployee by Mrs. Towler, who has de
manded payment which was refused.
He theretore, in behalf of his chent.
asks for the appointment of an ad
ministrator, and a notice i publish
ed to that effect. Clay and Blair are
the attorneys for Mrs. Judge Knight,
and will hght the granting of an ad
ministrator, claiming that the estate
is solvent and unable to pay its
debts, and that the estate owes Mrs.
Towler not a cent. Thus tne case
stands and what will be the outcome
the courts alone will have to deter
mine. Tbe Jookey t lab Races.

SMALL COIN.
HOW THE SOUTH IS SI' PPM ED
WITH -CHARGE."
Tbe Testimony to Prosperity Shown by
no Movoaseat of .Fractional Currency
Special Telegram to Tux tii .oMt u
New York, Oct. 28. To-day I in
terview Mr. Scherer, the cashier of
tbe New York sub-Treasurv of the
United States, as to the recent move
ment of small coin. "Up to two
years ago," said he, "wehadspmuch
money in the 6ub-Treasurv that we
were encumbered with it. Wa lack
ed room to keep it. But now all that
is changed. Money goes out from
New York without finding its way-
back and we are hard put to to meet
the demands of trade, and a great
deal of it is going South.
"About in New Orleans, for exam
ple," he continued, "finds a lack of
currency to meet the demands there.
It informs its agent here, who ar
ranges with us for it, directly or in
directly. If directly, a check is giv
en on the sub-Treasury at New Or
leans. The reult is money is shipi
ped f roni this distnhuti g point to
that one. We sent coin to Nw
Orleans to-day. We sent coin lh re
yesterday ana the day Lef re."
What denominations are most in
demand for these shipment!"
"Nearly always the smaller denom
i nations. For example, we have sent
$300,000 in twenty five cent pieces
to New Orleans and St. Louis together
within the past four months. A gieat
.deal more of small coin go s of couise
to ether parts of the South and W st
thau to New Orleans; but this move
ment will show the direction of mon
ey shipments especially shipments
of small coin."
"And what significance do you at
tach to this ?"'
"It means, of course,"' the cashier
replied, 'that there is great activity
in all kinds of business especially re
tail business in the South. It tells
the story of an increasing interchange
of goods, of more trade, and of more
kinds of trade. And since these ship
ments of money no longer find their
way back to New Yoi k, it is plain
that money is being invented in tne
sections where it is distributed. It
stays there: is paid in wages, is spent
at the scores, and find its way at last
not back North again as it formally
did, but into permanent and prosper
ous forms of local investment. It is
turning itself over and over au-n
there, not making the old trip bat k
North. It is an indication of the in
creasing local prosperity of the country.-

as a mode of escape. Al'ogether

away without sei ious trouble but it
is doubtful if there will be 200 aboard

By TdegrapB to Thi cnonoa
Macon, Ga., Oct 28. The city is
tuiv wun x-vAmeaerate soiaiers,
who are here attending the re-union
ot uontedeaate veterans. The pres
ence of the now feeble ex-President
of the Confederacy has added much
to the excitement of the occasion.
which, since Wednesday, has been
unbounded.
General Jackson speech is at
tractmg considerable attention and
unfavorable comment. He was an
nounced by the Atlanta Constitution
a few weeks ago as the probable can
amate tor un'tea states senator in
he place of Senator Colquitt upon a
platform repealing internal revenue
and supporting a protective tariff It
is thought by many that the speech
was an appeal to the old sold er ele
ment and it is regarded as a virtual
announcement of his candidacy.
Jackson is a warm friend of Senator
Brown, whose support he will re
cetve. xne speecn is objected to on
grounds that it will be used against
tiovernor Uordon, who goes shortly
to taice tne stump in unio for Uen.
Powell, and that it is apt to react
unfavorably on the South.
While the reception of Jefferson
Davis has been enthusiastic, nothine
in the shape of disloyal sentiment has
been heard anywhere among tbe peo
pie. Every building has used the
stars and stripes in its decoration.

Bevans vs. Goodrich.
w nere, in a but or foreclosure, a
judgment has been obtained and an
order made to lay off the homestead
or the defendant, provisionally, there
owing an intervening judgment crea
tor, a party plaintiff, and the com
missioners to lay off the homestead
act and make their report, and de
ienaant asks lor an allotment of sev
en additional acres, which is assented
to by the plaintiffs and an order is
made to that effect, giving to defend
ant the privilege to select tbe said ad
ditional acres and, on his failure, di
recting the commission rs to do so ;
and defendant faded to make selec
tion, and therefore the commissioners
acted without him ;
Held, That any objection defend
ant may have had to the order was
waived by his failure to perfect his
appeal and abandoning it, after he
bad appealed from said order.
Held, That th order went to the
merits of tbe matter and was not a
mere interlocutory ruling, but was
the subject of an immediate appeal
Held, That an omission to stite the
date of the allotment of which de
fendant had knowledge, being urged
to attend, worked no injury.
Held, lhat questions of f-tct that
aris in the progress of the allotmnt
are not such issues of fact as entitle
the parties to a jury trial.
Held. That al; hough either party
could have h d the value of the prop
erty assessed y a jury, yet when an
allotment hid been made and the de-
fendont asks for a t-p-cifiel addi'i n
which i agreed to the o'.her ptr-
tie-. and the court so orderv. 1 1 ere in
no longer a question of value for ihr
jury to assess.
Held, That questions of costs must
await tbe rale and final judgment
where the application of the fuud de
pends on the amount realized.
Grimes vs. rJizabeth Taft.
In the nartition of John Bovd's
land among his heirs in 1S59 the
shares allotted to four of them were
charged with the pay meot of 1,237
to juuaoein iail, an neir, tor equal
ity. Henry, one of thoss whose
shares were so tiuuved dying, his
estate descended to Elizabeth and
others. In 1879 his administrator
filed hs petition against Elizabeth
and others to sell Henrv's land to
make assets and the land being duly
sold plaintiff bought and received the
deed In 1885 Elizabeth issued exe
cution on the judgment of 1859 and
directed the sheriff to sell the land
allotted to Henry and which in 1879
had been purchased by plaintiff, and
thereupon plaintiff applied for an in
junction-
Held. That the share of Henry de
scended to his heirs subject to the
charge made on it in 1858, and that
Elizabeth was entitled to have the
proceeds of the sale made in 1879 ap
plied in the due course of adminis
tration to the discharge of her lien.
Held, That she being a party to
the proceeding to sell the land can
not question the title of the purchas

BEST AND BRAVEST.
What Ez-Prcoldent Davis Says of Berth
Carolina Trooao tn tbo Late War.
Mr. I, F. Dortch, of Ooldsboro,
wrote to ex-Presiaent Jefferson Davis
inviting him to attend the Confeder
ate re-union in uoidsooro on the oc
casion of the "- f ait thfc week. Mr,
Davis regretted that previous en
gagements prevented his acceptance
of the invitation, we mate two ex
tracts from bis model letter: -
'I have often had occasion to re
imrk upon the gallantry and stead i
nessof the IN. U. troops in the war
and sometimes to express the opinion
that they had received less of popular
commendation than was their due.
It would give me great pleasure to
meet again the old soldiers of your
State. ,
"Please give my kindest remem
brance to your father Hon. W. T.
Dortch whose friendship for me has
been one of the pleasant memories of
my public life, and here permit me to
add that since the war between the
States has closed, though I have been
pursued by the slings and arrows of
detraction, the voice of North Caro
lina uttered by her free press and
public men, has never swelled the
chorus, or failed upon proper occa
sion to do justice and to maintain the
creed for which so many of her best
and bravest, bled and died."

The weather did not nrevent vm
terdsy the marriage of Miss Birdie
uonaurant ana Mr. William Atkin
son. The dav was rust as bad an the
previous one. but the couhIa Wi1l
to brave the elements and take the
nuptial leap.
The ceremony was performed hv
Rev. W. W. Landrum at 3 o'clock.
Dr. Landrum was in his best humor,
and he made the nuntial knot AS tl'o-ht
as could be.
There was a eood sized crowd in
witness the ceremony, and a great
deal of curiosity was evinrarl to baa
the bride. Mrs. Atkinson received
some valuable presents, and she has
toe Battsiacuon ot being the first lady
who was ever married on the Fair
Grounds of the Virginia 8tate Agri

this, and it may perhaps open up a
new era in the order of matters mot
rimonial.
