" Argument Begun In Uw Cw of the condemned Cblcaffo Anarcnlst By Cable to the Morning Star. f Waihington, Oct 27. The anticipated argument before the U. 8. Supreme Court to-day upon the petition for a writ of er ror in the Chicago anarchists' case, attract ed 1 the Capitol a'crowd of eager people who seemed anxious to gain admission to the court room, as if the anarchists them- - selves were to be present in chains and leg fetters, and to argue their own case in per son. More than an hour before the Court assembled the court room was densely v packed with people, who not only occupied ' all of the seats provided for spectators, but encroached upon the precincts)' the bar and stood in closely packed thrones in the open spaces on each side of the door. Even out - in the corridor there was a crowd endeavor ing to at least get a glimpse of the interior of the court room through the entrance. The audience was destined, however, to be at least for a time disappointed. When the Court was called to order at 12 o'clock, and candidates for admission to the bar had been sworn, the Chief Justice announced that the Court would proceed with the un finished business of yesterday. This nn- finished business was the case from Loui siana, which, however important;to the liti gants, had very little popular interest. Washington, Oct. 27. Argument in the Louisiana case was concluded at five minutes past 1 o'clock, and the Chief Jus tice said : 'We ar,e ready now to hear the . motion for a writ of error in the case of Spies and others." Gen. B. F. Butler asked the Court how much time would be allowed for argument. ' His brother, Mr. Tucker, reprepresented. he Baid. a majority of the petitioners : he - himself represented two of them, whose cases were in some respect different from those of the others ; he would not speak 'i merely for the sake of speaking, but he would not like to be hurried. The Chief Justice asked him how much time he desired. Gen. Butler said he would like an hour . and a half for himself and an hour and a half for his associate, Mr. Tucker. The Chief Justice said : "Very well ; we will allow you three hours on a side." " AttorneyGeneral Hunt, of Illinois, said that as he and his associates did not yet know what scope the argument would take, he could not say how much time they would desire. He would like, however, to have an opportunity given to his associate, Mr. Gnnnell, to speak. The Chief Justice said that each side would be allowed three hours, and that Mr. GrinneU might speak. At a quarter past one J. Randolph Tuck er opened argument in support of the peti tion for a writ of error. He said that it was not necessary for him to show, as -a c Dn dition precedent to the granting of the writ, - that the action complained of in the Court below was actually repugnant to or in vio lation of the constitution. It was only ne ce&sary to show that a conflict had arisen; that there was a question whether the ac tion complained of was not repugnant to the' constitution. That was enough to give this Court jurisdiction. It was the object of the statute of 1867 to give free access to , this Court in all cases where there was a ; question of this kind. It was not necessary : to show repugnancy, but only conflict. If I there is conflict, then this Court has juris . diction; and if it has jurisdiction, then pe . titioners.are entitled to their writ as aright. This Court, said Mr. Tucker, is a city of ' refuge from the avenger of blood, and any man who came here and takes hold cf the horns of - justice should not be repulsed. The policy of this Court, he said, had been to deal libe rally with petitions for writs of error in civil cases. How much more should it deal liberally with a petition for a writ of error in a criminal case involving issues of life . , and death in a case where life was about to be taken in violation of the constitution. Mr. Tucker then proceeded to a careful - analysis of the Fourteenth Amendment and an attempt to ascertain the meaning of the words, "due process of law." Mr. Tucker i finished speaking at 2.35 o'clock, and was " followed by Attorney General Hunt, in be- half of the State of Illinois, who spoke till - the Court adjourned. The Paying Teller of tne Sub-Treasury Escapes to Canada wltn 10,000. By Telegraph to the Morning star. Naw York, Oct. 27. The Bub-Treasury has now its representative in Canada in the person of Henry Jackson, its paying - teller. He has gone with exactly $10,000 of Uncle Sam's money, but there is this satisfaction for the treasury officers, that Jackson might have taken more. He did not, however, have access to the vaults, as - more stringent rules concerning admission - to the vaults were made under the present - assistant treasurer. Jackson took the i- money, as assistant treasurer Canda said to day, on last Saturday, the day of his departure. His cash was carefully ex amined on the 13th inst., and found to be - correct. On the 17th inst, when Jackson - was absent through illness, Mr. Canda said , his accounts were again gone over, and the deficit found. ' On Monday morning ; last the discovery, was made, and measures v.were taken to intercept him; his def auK . meanwhile being kept secret. - Mr. Canda said to-day, "I know no way .that has been devised to prevent paying - tellers in banks or other institutions from taking part of the money necessarily com mitted to their charge, if they are dis- . honest.'' . Jackson was appointed in February, ; 1879, and was recommended by several of the moBt Influential men in the city. He was previously in the National Currency Bank and other financial institutions of this city, occupying a smaller salaried posU v Uon. When he was first appointed he was promoted successively until he reached ttte position of paying teller at $3,000 per an--, cum, under the present assistant treasurer. ; He was a self-possessed and capable man. - Jackson was not. under bonds, so Mr. Canda will have to bear the loss. " UG' Canaa spoke of the default of $185. ' 000, under assistant treasurer Millhouse, of several years ago, showing that this is , not the first loss of the kind to the treasu ry. ; -.- ; JAKE 8HARF.

RiCHHOND, Va ., Oct. 27 The day opened gloomy ana wet, with no change in the condition of the weather from that which, has prevailed for three days past. The heavv clouds which have overhung the city since" Sunday night have given an almost incessant down-pour of rain. the remain-: der unbroken and threatening, and Rich-r mond's big day was ushered in with a misty rain, which fell steadily with no indication of cessation Despite all this, -however, the people of the city and many thousands of visitors were early on the streets, and by 9 o'clock the moving multitude was bo great that it was plainly evident that Rich mond's population for the day was as large, and probably larger, than on. any previous occasion. At an early hour the sound of martial music was heard in every direction, and military, mounted and afoot, could be seen moving to their various positions, prepara tory to the formation of the procession. Mounted marshals and couriers dashed hither and thither, directing the movements of troops and arranging the line of march .3 Before 10 o'clock the rain had temporarily ceased, but the clouds remained unbroken and threatening. The people, however, seemed not to notice this, but had evidently made up their minds to carry out the pro gramme of tbe day in all of its details, rain or shine. The visiting military consists of two corps of cadets, one from the Virginia Mil itary institute, and the other from the Blackeburg Agricultural and Mechanical College; two regiments of Virginia infantry, three companies of cavalry, four companies of artillery ; also two compa nies of infantry from North Carolina and one from Maryland. Besides these there are several camps of Confederate veterans from different parts of the State, and six hundred veterans of the Maryland line. The latter arrived here this morning, and their appearance on the streets with the Marine Band of Washington at the head of the line, created considerable inter est, and they were everywhere greeted with enthusiasm. Four professors and fifty-five students arrived this morning from Washington and Lse University. Geo. R. E. Lee was at the time of his death the President of this institution, and was succeeded by his son, Gen. G. W. Custis Lee, who is now Presi dent. Owing to the recent illness of tbe latter, he was unable to participate in to day's ceremonies, but his brothers. Gen. W. H. F. (popularly known as "Roony") Lee, and Capt. Robert E. Lse, are here. The only other immediate members of th e family are two daughters, who are at pre sent in Europe. At a few minutes before 11 o'clock.every thing being in readiness the procession be gan to move." At the head of the line, after detachments of mounted po lice, came the , Chief Marshal of tbe day. Gen. Wade Hampton, riding side by side with Gov. Fitzhugh Lee, both superb ly mounted; then followed the Gover nor's staff in brilliant uniform, and the as sistant marshals. Next in successive order came the Virginia Confederate Veteran Camp, the Veterans of the Maryland line, the Volunteer Infantry of Virginia and North Carolina, the Artillery, and then all of the various civic organizations, embra cing tbe Grand Lodge of Virginia Masons, two Commanderies of Knights Templar, the Blue Lodge of Masons, Druids Elks, Junior Order of American Mechanics. Odd Fellows, and other societies in regalia. The whole made such a display as has never be fore been seen in Richmond. Dense crowds packed the side-walks along the whole route of march , and the enthusiasm of the population was given vent to jn almost incessant cheers, to be but increased as some favorite or famed or ganization passed by. The procession was nearly an hour pass ing a given point, the Richmond Fiie Department,.with all its apparatus, bring ing up the rear. Windows and every other available, elevated place along the line of march were filled with people, mainly ladies, who cheered the wet pro cessionists by waving hats and .handker chiefs, and expressed their pleasure in va rious other way 8. The scene, as the head of the column marched into the monument grounds, was (despite the drizzle) very, in spiring. Gen. Wade Hampton and Gov. Lee, riding in front side by side as loving ly as when in. other davs they commanded the cavalry of the Army of Northern Vir ginia; cavalry escort, distinguished guests in carriages, veterans and military all commnea to make a brilliant pageant, The statue of Fame crowning Lee, at tbe entrance of the grounds, was surrounded by about a hundred veteran inmates of the Confederate Soldiers' Home, and as the head of the line approached they unveiled tne statue and fired a salute. This statue is a plaster cast of the. colossal one, on an imitation granite base, designed and con structed by John A. Elder and W. 8. Shephard, two of Richmond's best known artists, and is a decided feature of the many J J m m . - uesigns ana decorations to oe seen tnrougn out the city. The enthusiasm of the vete rans of Lee Camp Home was touching to witness, as they recognized so many of their old leaders and comrades in line, and greeted them with the old-time Confederate yell, which, if not as strong as in former days, was at least as hearty and sincere. The grand stand, to which admission was had only by tickets of invitation, was soon filled, while many thousands stood in the mud and ram in as close proximity as possible. The Marine Band of Washing ton played "Dixil," "Star Spangled Ban ner, ' "Yankeeipoodle,'' and other popular airs, wnuetne veterans, urand .Lodge of Masons and other organizations took the places assigned them. Despite the con siant unzzie, . wmcn soon increased to. a hard rain, people held their places with amazing .patience. A veteran voiced the sentiment of all when he said, "We used io iouow marse lioo in mucn worse wea ther than this, and surely we can cheerfully stand this to do him honor." Gov. Lee called the vast assemblage to oraer, ana saia: "Ciiuteni and Comrades As Governor of Virginia, I am under the law a member of the Lee Mouument Association, and by tne action or that Association I am its president. Tne duty, therefore, devolves upon me of opening these ceremonies. which are to mark not only an event in the history of Virginia and its capital city, but of all sections of 'our country where the BBiiram vi , tsoiuiers is amy ap preciated and remembered.

A Macon (Ga.) special to the Herald says last night a creat torchlight demonstration occurred in honor of Jefferson Davis. General Henry Jackson, ex-Minister to Mexico, in his speech to the Veterans, yea terday, said: "Confederate veterans: There stands upon the soil of Georgia a distinguished Mifisissippian, who, within the life of the present generation, was a so-called traitor. the leader of the so-called lost cause. We, Confederate Veterans, relict of the armies which fought for that cause, are here to meet him, to move before him, in the pride and pomp of no Roman triumph, it is true. but bending our necks to no Raman yoke of subjugation. By invitation of the State of Georgia, speaking through ber. duly empowered officials, all have come. Behold majestic Truth revealing -herself, State sovereignty Is not dead; Georgia is sovereign still; and calls upon her people to glory with her to-day. Her glory is in her history. Her history la tbe memory or her dead, and this day is consecrated to her Confederate dead. They were guilty of no treason to her. To whom then could they be traitors? Where shall we seek their higher sovereign ? Shall we find him in the Federal constitution ? Then there was a sovereign smitten to the earth by traitor nanas ana trampjea in the dust by traitor feet, but tbe hands and feet were not theirs. Do we hold that the men who fought against, mem were traitors 7 Jxot at all They. too. were loyal to their sovereign. The constitution waa but a treaty between nign contracting sovereign parties, without one atom oi . sovereignty in itself.

The Doctor cited precedent covering the case It is probable that no furtner action will be taken by the United 8tates authorities until a request be made by the local authorities, as tbe law forbids interference in any man ner with State quarantines. Consequently the initial steps for Federal action must come from local authorities, when, in their judgment, the time for such action has ar rived. Some of the telegrams received by Dr. Hamilton from health offices of distant cities are couched in very indignant terms.
