Republican members ot Congress have given assurances that the Election bill will not be called up again. James H. Young has. been again nominated for Collector of Customs of Wilming ton. The revolutionists in Chili are steadily gaining ground. Heavy snow storm in the Northwest and rail road traffic suspended. Irr the Sen ate yesterday the Apportionment bill was passed, and in the House there was a lone; debate on the Military Aca demy Appropriation bill. Several passengers injured in a collision on the L. & N. R. R. The Legislature of Il linois is still balloting for U. S. Senator. Secretary Windom died suddenly last night- at a banquet in New York5 just after concluding a speech in re sponse to a toast. H. C. Kee- ble, a cotton dealer at Selma.

The proba bilities are that when they get to the bottom they will strike a good deal of mud. It is said that the three Alliance men in the Illinois Legislature will not vote for Palmer, and that they are suspiciously hobnobbing with the Republicans. Senator Gorman made a heavy draw on his generosity Wednesday when he txDressed the belief that the Superintendent of the Census had done his work fairly and well, Prof. Wiggins has postponed hjs earthquakes until August, 1904. This is clever. But in the meantime we will have a pretty good shake up in 1392, when we stir up what's left of the g. o. p. The New York Tribune congratu lates the country on the fact that we are "exporting and importing to-day in a degree immensely greater than before the war." And yet it is per sistentiy shrieking for subsidies to ships to boost American commerce. A West Virginia man had a big piece of his brain shaved off and still continues to get around. Th might seem marvelous if the performances of some of the Republican statesmen didn't establish the fact that men can sometimes live without any brains at" all. As Mr. Harrison declared posi tively that he would not be a Presi dential candidate if the Force bill was not passed, it may be now rea sonably inferred that he is out of the ring, and that the Democrats will have some other Republican victim to wallop. A New York doctor tells people that if they have dyspeptic stomachs and treat them with dueconsidera tion by dieting, &c, and the stomach obstinately declines to reciprocate, the proper thing to do is to sail in, eat good, solid food and let the stomach paddle its own canoe.

FATAL ACCIDENT. Conductor Morecock Knocked from Train and Killed. Capt. David M. Morecock, Conductor of the through freight train No. 209, which left here Wednesday evening for Charleston, b. C, was knocked from the top of one of the cars of his train by the bridge at Lynch 's Creek, ten miles south of Florence, S. C. on the Northeastern road, and instantly killed about 3 o'clock yesterday morning. One of the train men saw Captain Morecock a few moments before the accident on top of a car near the engine going towards the rear of the train. The train was stopped and his dead body was found lying beside the track.

He was made a freight conductor about a year ago and last June he was married to Miss Katie Bunting, of this city, and with his bride took up his residence in Florence. OPERA HOUSE. Mane Greenwood in Bocaccio Next Tuesday Evening. "The performance at the Grand Opera House last evening of the Mane Green- Wood Opera Co. more than justified all cio" was presented before a large audi ence. Few in the audience had ever before heard the sweet voice of Miss Marie Greenwood. Rochester has gen erally been chary of commendation when asked to pass an opinion upon something new. The approval of Miss Greenwood was most emphatic. In the role of Fiametta she meets all the re quirements of mere personality; her charm is, after all. in the rare sweetness and purity of her voice, which she uses with such skill and taste as to excite the admiration even of the critical." We quote the above from the Roches ter Herald. Miss Greenwood and her company appear in Wilmington Tuesday evening next in Von Suppi's "Bocaccio" for which engagement seats will be sold to-morrow at Yates' Judge Farrar To-Night. Judge Farrar's audience to-night bids fairtoea large and appreciative one. The choice seats are being reserved rap idly. Seldom has a lecturer made such a reputation as has the Judge. The oftener he comes the greater his popu larity. The theme for to-night is specially well suited to the style and manner of the- lecturer. As he represents the 'County Court Lawyer," the will prob ably relate many scenes and experiences familiar to him in earlier life, and can therefore enter into the spirit of his ad dress with unusual zest and enthusiasm. The Dress sneaks in highest terms of the popularity of this lecture, and the Judge himself thinks it one of fits best. Ke- serve your seat early at Mr. Yates' book f you want a good one. The Cutting Case. Pompey Howe, the young colored man who cut Carrie Boston, colored, with a knife last Tuesday night on South Front street, was arraigned yesterday before Mayor Fowler, and after investi- gation of the case was aeia in bond for appearance at the next term ot the Criminal Court. Young Howe plead ed guilty to the charge of assault and battery with a deadly weapon. His father, W. H. Howe, is his bonds man. Yesterday's "Weather.

C, FRIDAY, JANUARY 30, 1891. THE ELECTION GASES. FOURTH DAY OF THE TRIAL IN THE SUPERIOR COURT. Arguments of Counsel Judge Mclver's Charge to the Jury A. Verdict For the Defendant. Court convened at 10 o'clock, when Mr. Martin for the defence, made an argument in support of the plea of res adjudicata which was offered by the de fence in abatement of the action now be ing maintained. His effort, viewed from a legal standpoint, was an able one. Speaking of the exclusive jurisdiction of the Board of Canvassers and their determination as final and conclusive, Mr. Martin sketched the histd?y of the various acts of the General Assembly, regulative of elections, and he showed by citation of the opinions of the Supreme Court that by the concurrence in time of opinion and amendment that the intention of the General Assembly was to create a court of special aryl final jurisdiction for the determination of contested elections. "The acts of 1871 and '72 gave to the County Commissioners the power 'to add the returns.' This act, and particu larly this clause, was construed by the Supreme Court in Moore vs. Jones. 7G, N. C. The Court said that the Com missioners acting by virtue of the power conferred by this statute could only add the returns and announce the totals. They were ministerial officers and could not even pass upon the validity of the return itself. In the session of 1876 and '77 the Legislature passed an act (chap. 275, sec. 25), creating a Board of Canvassers, providing in said act that 'at the said meeting the Board of Can vassers shall open and canvass the re turns.' Canvass as defined by Worces ter, means to scrutinize, to examine with a view to ascertain the truth. The Legislature evidently had in mind the decision in Moore vs. Jones, and meant to clothe the Board of Can vassers with new and enlarged pow ers. In Swain vs. RcRae, 80, N. C, there is an allusion to this amendment; but the Court do not construe it, as the case was decided upon another point. Peebles vs. Commissioners of Davie, 82 N. C, is a case in which this act of 1877 is expressly construed, and the Court decide that all the Canvassing Board can do is to scrutinize and exam ine the returns themselves. They may see if they are correct upon their face, but are concluded from going behind them to attack them. If they are in fact what they purport to be, then the Board must receive and count them, leaving the aggrieved party, if any, to his remedy in the courts. In 1883 The Code was adopted and a further amend ment was made to the election law. Section 2694 added after the words "open and canvass," which the Supreme Court had construed in the Peebles' case, the words "and judicially deter mine the returns." The case of Gatling vs. Boone, reported in . the 98th N. C. Report, was a case of injunction, and the Court construes this section of The Code. -The plea of res adjudicata was put in and the trial judge Avery sustained the plea. The Supreme Court overruled the plea and in their opinion drew a distinction between judicially determining the returns and declaring what the true result of the election was. The rights of parties cannot be adjusted without a full and fair knowledge of all the facts. This section does not give the Canvassing Board power to go be hind the returns; to examine witnesses and see if the returns in themselves are correct. They can declare the true re sult of the election by the Inspection of the returns only, which might be false and fraudulent. Hence with that ele ment ot uncertainty and no adjudication of the rights of parties, there can be no estoppel by the action of the Canvassing Board, The same case was again be fore' the Court and is reported in the 101st Report. The Legislature met a few months after the rendition of this decision, and passed the Act entitled chapter 287, section 9 of the Laws of 1889. Foiled in their repeated at tempts to enlarge the jurisdiction of the Board of Canvassers the Legisla ture determined to make their intention clear. They had in mind the decision in Gatling vs. Boone, They desired to expedite the settlement ot contested election cases and determined to give to the Canvassing Board full power to fin ally determine the rights of parties and pronounce a judgment which could only be impeached for fraud in an action of quo warranto, ine u-i gives iu mc Canvassing Board power, "to judicially canvass the returns; jifdicially pass upon all facts relative to the election and ju dicially declare the true result of the same ;" appreciating the distinction drawn by the Supreme Court in Boone's case and fairly meeting it by giving to the Canvassing Board, in the language used by the Supreme Court, the in creased power. Judge Russell in his reply controvert ed the position assumed by Mn Martin. At the conclusion of his remarks Judge Mclver said that he overruled the plea.- The defence excepted. The jury was called in. iiis rionor RNING presented the issue that he had pre pared: "Was the plaintiff's relator, S. VanAmringe, duly elected to the office of Clerk of the Superior Court of New Hanover onthe 4th day of November, 1890, and Is" he entitled to be inducted into said office. Judge Russell then proposed not to go the jury but that he would admit the answer to be true, and let the case stand on the complaint and answer with an agreed fact added, that "Thomas, claim ing to be the Registrar, held the elec tion." The Court declined to submit any issue but the one it had offered and tefused the offer. Judge Russell opened the case for the relator. He said that he would contend that the plaintiff was entitled to a ver dict whether Thomas was appointed Reg istrar by Cowan and Kerr or not. "That ac cording to the pleadings and all the evi dence Thomas and those who acted with him were de facto officers, and in the absence of fraud their acts were legal in all their consequences." Mr. Rountree foithe defence con tended that Thomas was a usurper and consequently could do no legal act. "A de facto officer is one who acts under color of right, without having a legal right. Thomas had not the color of a right, as he is not to be believed, when hts testimony in regard to his appoint ment is contradicted by five or six others." Messrs. Bellamy, Meares and Sted man addressed J the jury in the order named, calling attention to the contra dictions and descrepancies in Thomas' testimony, insisting that because of these he was not worthy of credit and could not be believed. Judge Russell closed the case for the plaintiff. His Honor charged the jury as fol lows : The question s'uSmitted for your de termination is, "Was the plaintiff relator, S. Van Amringe, duly elected to the office of Clerk of the Superior Court of New Hanover county, on the 4th day of November, A. D., 1890, and is he en titled to be inducted into said office ?" This question you are to answer from the testimony as you have it from the witnesses, and from the law as given you by the court. It is admitted that, if the vote of Cape Fear township be counted, and added to the votes cast in the other townships in the county, as the relator claims it should be, then your answer should be "Yes." But if Cape Fear township be excluded from the computation, as the defendant in sists it onght to be, then your answer should be "No." The Board of County Canvassers, having canvassed the vote of the county, excluding Cape Fear township, and hav ing declared the defendant duly elected, and inducted him into office.esrablished, prima facie, his rights thereto, and it devolves on the plaintiff relator to estab lish, by preponderance of proof, that he, and not the defendant, was in fact duly elected, and tnat the Board of Canvass ers should have so declared. - The plaintiff relator claims and insists that C. H. Thomas was,- lawfully ap pointed Registrar of Cape Fear town ship, by a majority of the Justices of that township, in the place of James Cowan, who had been appointed Regis trar by the County Commissioners, but who.on account of sickness.failed to act; that he, Thomas, being so appointed, opened the registration books, as re quired by law, kept them open, and accessible to all eligible cititizens that all had an opportunity to register, and all, with a few exceptions, did, in fact, register, and no one, lawfully entitled, was excluded; that he, Thomas, was present with the books at Castle Hayne, the polling place of the town ship, on the second Saturday preceding the election, with others, judges of elec tion, to revise the books, and to hear and pass upon any challenges that had been made; that he was present on the day of election-, with the books; that he appoint ed poll-holders, or judges of election, where those who had been appointed failed to attend, or failed to act, and he, with the judges thus appointed, held the election, fairly and lawfully, admitting all lawfully qualified voters, and exclud ing none lawfully entitled. But the de fendant says that Thomas was not Reg istrar, either in law or in fact; that in taking charge of the books, and with holding them from Cowan, the only Registrar in Cape Fear township, and assuming to act as Registrar, he was simply an usurper, or intruder, and all his acts were void. This is substantially the contention of the parties. According to the testimony of the witnesses on both sides, who testified in regard to it, Thomas and his appointees did hold an election in Cape Fear town ship; that the same was fair, the count fair and honest, and, as far as any wit ness knew, free from fraud. So the question narrows down to this: Was a lawful election held in Cape Fear town ship on the 4th day of November, 1890, and did the plaintiff, relator, receive 155 votes for Clerk of the Superior Court ? If you find from the evidence, under the law as I shall declare it to you, that a lawful election was held in Cape Fear township, and that the plaintiff received 155 votes, you will respond "Yes," to the issue. To determine this question it is important and necessary to enquire by what authority, if any, C. H. Thomas acted. If you find from the evidence that Thomas was appointed Registrar by a majority of the justices of Cape Fear township, in place of James Cowan, who from any cause failed to act, then he was Registrar de jure, and all his acts in registering voters, appointing judges of election, and holding the election, were valid in law, and the election was lawfully held, and your answer to the issue should be, "Yes." But if you do not find that he was Registrar de jure, that he was not ap pointed Registrar by the justices of the township, you will next enquire whether he was Registrar de facto, that is, was he a Registrar by color of legal appoint ment? If you believe from the evidence that Cowan appointed him to act in his stead, and he did so act, this, though Cowan had no legal right to appoint, would be color of legal appointment, and constitute a de facto Registrar. So, if you believe the entry in the justice's record book, of October 1st, 1890, was put there by Thomas, undeFthe direc tion or sanction of Cowan, and that Thomas acted under it, while it would not be a legal appointment, it would be color of legal appointment and consti tute him a de facto Registrar. A regis tration officer is a necessary one in order to afford an opportunity to all eligible citizens to register, and if you believe from the evidence that Thomas assumed to act as Registrar, and did act, openly and notoriously, for so long a time as to lead the public reasonably to presume that he had been legally appointed, this would constitute him Registrar de facto. So if you find from the evidence that he was de facto Registrar, as I have thus ex plained, and that he acted in that capac ity, his acts were valid and binding so far as the public are concerned as the acts of a Registrar de jure, and this whether he was sworn or not, and the election thus held by him and his appointees would be valid, and your answer to the issue should" be. "Yes." Otherwise, "No." If you find from the evidence that Cowan con tinued to act as Registrar and employed Thomas as clerk to assist him, and that Thomas whilst sustaining this relation to Cowan fraudulently obtained posses sion of the books on the second Satur day preceding the election under a promise to return them, and assumed to act as Registrar, he was an intruder, and had no authority and could perform no Iawlul official act, and in consequence the election held by him, and his ap pointees, was void, and your answer to the issue should be, "No." It is proper that I should remind vou that the right to vote is a constitutional right, and registration laws are intended to regulate that right, but cannot destroy or abridge it. In order to facilitate the exercise of this right, and to prevent illegal voting, fraud and confusion at elections, registration is not only im portant but essential, and to maker it serve the purpose of the law it must be made by the proper, officer in the way and manner, and the time, prescribed by law. The jury retired at 6.30 o'clock and in a half hour returned with their response to the issues "No." This decided the case in favor of the present incumbent Col. J no. D. Taylor. BY RIVEr"aND RAIL.
