It is the opinion of Senator Bailey, of Texas, that there will be no Isthmian canal legislation at this session Congress "if the trans-con tinental railways can prevent it,' and it seems they can.

At theendof twenty years Henry Lucas, who belongs to what was some years ago the wealthiest family west of the Alleghamies, got away with $2,000,000, and had $40,000 of Indebtedness wiped out in bank rnptcy. He had no assets and is now working in Chicago for his bread and meat. It will be some time yet before there is a rush of miners into China.

INVOLVLNQ THE CITY. Squabble Over Contraction of Pence oa Third, Neir Wslant Street. A case involving a number of fine points of law will likely find its way into the courts before long as the re sult of a controversy yesterday after noon over the erection of a fence and an aldermanic permission , granted some tima ago. The controversy arose over the extension of a fence around residence belonging to Mr. J. F. Garrell, on Third between Walnut and Red Cross streets, and adjoining the residence of Mr. Stephen Jewett In common with several permissions granted by the present Board of Alder men, Mr. Garrell was given the privilege of extending the fence around the residence adjoining that of Mr. Jewett slightly over the sidewalk line. To this Mr. Jewett objects, and yesterday when carpen ters began work on the enclosure he applied to Chief of Police Furlong to have the work stopped. The matter was referred to Mayor pro tern. Von- Glahn, but in the face of the privilege granted by the Board of Aldermen, of course, he was powerless. Mr. Jewett then employed Bellamy & Peschsu as his counsel and warrants were sworn out before Justice McGowan for the carpenters, who were arrested for ob structing the sidewalk with the fence, The matter will be heard more fully by Justice McGowan next Monday. In the meantime, Mr. Jewett talks of suing out an injunction against the city to prevent them from allowing the fence to be built Died Yesterday at Sontbport.

Controversy Over Maintenance of Nuisance in Prominent Residence Section. WILMINQT0N SEWERAGE CO. Mr. J. V. QraiBfer Withdrew from tb Board Case in the Municipal Conrt Yesterday Noon-Technical Dif ference of Opinion. Residents in the block bounded by Eighth and Ninth and Market and Princess streets, yesterday morning made complaint to Mayor pro tern.' Von Glahn that the sewerage pipes in that vicinity had become stopped in some way and the gases from the same were very deleterious to health. In their belief the Wilmington Sewerage Company was responsible for the nuisance and a warrant was at once issued for Capt. E. G. Parmele, secretary and treasurer of the corpora tion. He was brought into court at noon and City Attorney Wm. J. Bellamy read the warrant against him and explained the nature of the of fence. Marsden Bellamy, Eq . also appeared in the court as counsel for residents in the vicinity of the infec tion, who were highly indignant that the nuisance had been allowed to exist Ex-Judge E E. Bryan was present as Capt Parmele's counsel and asked if his client was held an an individual or as an officer of the corporation. He' was informed that Capt Parmele was held as a representative of the Sewer age Company, whereupon he made .a motion to dismiss on the ground that the officer of a corporation could not be held responsible in a criminal pro ceeding. He then retired from the court with his client, the motion as to an individual having been sustained. The case was, however, proceeded with, and Mr. Parmele was bound over to the criminal term of the Su perior Court in the sum of $100, which was not given, as he wan not in court and no apparent effort was made to reach him later in the afternoon. In the meantime, the Mayor pro tern, directed the Superintendent of Health to employ Mr. W. H. McCart ney, a plumber, and see that the evil was corrected at once. If found to be the fault of the Sewerage Company, which was really the question at point then the charges for the re pair should be charged to .that cor poration. On account of the alleged mainte nance of the nuisance of the Wilming ton Sewerage Company, Mr. J. V. Grainger, a director in the same, yes terday afternoon tendered his resigna tion as a member of the Board. There was intense feeling over the matter by residents in the locality mentioned and Messrs. J. V. Grainger, 8- H Fishblate, Richard J. Jones and others were at the hearing to see that their interests "were protected. He Wanted Protection. Last night the police had an unusual call for aid. The negro who recently informed on the negro murderer, Wal lace, and caused his arrest by Capt J. P. Outts, on an A. C. L. freight train, was drinking with some other colored men at a saloon in "Brooklyn." Soon afterwards they came out in the street and the negro informant's associates began to abuse him for his assistance to "de white folks." He says they threatened to do him violence and he ran. Later he telephoned to the police station and 8ergeant Smith accompa nied him to his shanty car on the A. C L. yards where ,he said he felt safe. There is an unwritten law among the criminal class of negroes against "tell ing tales out oflschool" and the appli cant for protection last night had evi dently violated it Mr. H. P. Sprinter Here. Mr. Horace P. Springer, formerly of Wilmington, but now of Washington, D. C. is SDendinsr a short time in the city with his brother, Mr. J. A. Springer. Mr. Springer attended the marriage of his nephew, Mr. 8. J. Springer, at Washington, N. O. thin week and couldn't resist the desire to drop by Wilmington for a day or two and shake hands with old friends. He will return to Washington, D. O. this evening. Died In Fayetteviile. Mr. Bennett Hawley, brother of Mrs. Jos. E. Bunting, of this city, died in Fayetteviile yesterday noon, after a short illness. Mrs. Bunting went up to Fayetteviile yesterday morning to be at his bedside during his last mo ments, and many friends here will deeply sympathize with her In the sad news which came upon her arrival there. Mr. Hawley was about 85 years of sge, and leaves to mourn their loss one brother and four sisters. Cotton nnd Nsval Stores. Cotton receipts for the week ended yesterday were only 713 bales against 1,638 bales daring the same week last year. Only 175; casks of spirits tur pentine were received the past week against 437 casks same week last year. There is also a great falling off in all other naval store items, except tar in which there is about a thousand bar rels gain. Dunn Wants Headqnsiiers.

Cross Libel Instituted In the United States Conrt Yesterday by Csptnin Nielsen. Answer to Complaint Capt EL Nielson, master of the schooner Nellie Floyd, through his counsel. Col. Thos. Evans, yesterday instituted in the United States Court here a cross libel in personam against The Coal, Cement and Supply Co., of thin city, for alleged damage by reason of detention of his vessel, civil and maritime. The libellant alleges that he brought to Wilmington from New York 8,000 bags and 1,000 barrels of cement and for which service .$560 freight was paid in two Installments on March 38th and April 2 ad, when same was due and payable on delivery, or before deliv ery, if demanded; that the failure of the respondent to pay the agreed freight on delivery of the cargo de tained the schooner and crew for seven days; that the demurrage of the Nellie Floyd is customarily $40 per day. making a total of $380. The libellant also alleges that the cargo was not damaged by default of the schooner as alleged In the original libel, where fore the libellant in this action asks that the Coal, Cement and Supply Co. be cited to answer the allegation set forth In the cross proceedings and to show caufe why the original libel by the Coal, Cement and 8upply Com pany should not be consolidated with the cross libel and the two heard and considered together or in the event that the court should decree not to hear the two together, that the first he suspended and that the cross libel be heard and determined first Col. Evans also filed in the U. 8. court yesterday an answer to the origi nal libel In the case of the Nellie Floyd by the Coal, Cement and Sup ply Co. The answer admits the allegations of the complaint as to quantity shipped and rate of freight agreed upon. All other allegations are denied by the claimant It is also averred that all the terms and condi tions of the shipment as net forth in the triplicate bills of lading have been complied with ; that those bills of lad ing set forth that the shipment was made in "apparent good order;" that 100 barrels thereof was stained, dam aged ;n that the weight gauge and contents of the packages were un- known to the master;" that the schooner was "not accountable for breakage, leakage or rust if the cargo was properly stowed " "that delivery at this port should be in like order and condition, the dangers of the seas, fire and collision excepted." The very rough weather of the voy age down from New York is also de tailed, and the libel asked to be dis solved. Gapt Nielson, master of the vessel which is the subject of so much con troversy. Is still held in jail on the charge of having resisted the Deputy Marshal's agent An effort is being made to give the required bond.

Jury io Williams Damage Suit in Superior Court Reached No Verdict. THE PROCEEDINGS YESTERDAY Interesting Csse Involving a Constitutions! Point Emellne Mask Agslnst City of Wilmington Now on Trial. SternbergerShrler Csse. After remaining out all night the jury in the Williams damage suit In the Superior Court had not 'agreed upon a verdict when the court con vened as usual at 9 :30 o'clock yesterday morning. Judge Timberlake ordered the men held together for the remain der of the day and no verdict still having been reached at 4:30 o'clock, he called them out of the room, with drew one of their number and ordered a mistrial. He had previously asked if members of the jury thought there was any probability of an agreement in the near future and was informed that there was none whatever. It is learned from an authoratative source that the sole question of dis agreement was as to the responsibility of the company, the question of amount not having been reached. during the 80 hour's deliberation. 8even members desired to hold the company liable, while five held that there was no liability whatever. The jury was composed as follows: Chas. W. Walters W. H. Hanslev. W. A. Sneil, George Haar.Geo. Sloan, James G. Green, Geo. O. Gavlord. A. M. Underwood, T. J. Presson, 8 H, Terry, T. O. Bunting and Jno. H. Hanby. Hearing of the Sternberger-Shrier case was resumed upon the opening of court yesterday morning and a verdict rendered in favor of the plaintiff, I. J. Sternberger at 1 o'clock in the after noon. The following issue was sub mitted and answered as indicated, the question of damage not having been determined: "It the plaintiff the owner in fee. and entitled to the possession of the and set out in the complaint, or any part thereof, and if so, bow much t" Answer, "Yes, the strip shown n the McBee and MacBae map." The controversy was over the line between the stores of the litigants on North Front street and the verdict gives plaintiff the title to about three- fourths of an Inch of land upon which Mr. Shrier's wall extends. The effect of the verdict Is merely to establish the line and amounts to nothing beyond that It in not likely that the case will go to the Supreme Court as was at first supposed. The next case entered upon was that of Owen Martindale against Jas. Albro, et aL, involving the title to about 15 acres of land on the Federal Point road, five miles down the Gape Fear river. Some years ago Albro, who in a colored man, wan sentenced n the county criminal court to a term in the penitentiary. The late Col. B. R. Moore, who wan then solicitor of the court, claimed that the State con stitution did not provide for a home stead and personal property exemption against a penalty for a fine and coat in a criminal proceeding and he had the land sold to pay the cost of the action in which Albro wan sentenced. The sheriff levied oa the same and it was sold to Hon. Jno. D. Bellamy, who subsequently sold it to Martindale, who claimed the property also under a deed to a part of the old Bernard Mill Greek tract When Albro had completed his 'sentence, he came back to Wilmington and settled upon the tract The suit just concluded was to eject him from the premises and a ver diet to that effect was rendered by the jry. The case was a novel one and was hard fought Hon. Jno. D. Bellamy opened the argument for the plaintiff and was followed by Ed. 8. Battle, Esq , for the defendant George L. Peschau, Esq., next spoke for the plaintiff and, Bobert Buark, EsqT, closed for the defendant A. J. Mar shall, Esq., closed for the plaintiff.! The next case entered upon yester day was that of Emeline Mask against the City of Wilmington, in which she sues for alleged $3,500 actual and $2,500 punitive damages, for injuries received by beinsr thrown April 3rd, 1900, from a buggy, which dropped into an exca vation made in connection with the street grading at Seventh and Bruns wick streets. ; The rait was first insti tutedby William J. Bellamy, Esq. but upon his election to the city attor neyship he gave up all connection with the case. Messrs. Bellamy & Bellamy now appear for the plaintiff and Messrs. Meares& Buark . for the city. When court took a recess for the day at 6 o'clock yesterday evening the plaintiff had Introduced six witnesses and rested, whereupon Mr. Means made a motion to dismiss the case upon the ground that the city through its employes, acting in - a governmental capacity, wan not responsible to plain tiff for the injury. Judge Timber lake said he was at first inclined to deny the motion but would hear from the counsel further thin morning. The plaintiff in the action in the mother of the well-known colored physicians by the name name and the wife of one of them was the first wit ness introduced. The others were the plaintiff herself, Dr. Mask, Dr. A. H. Harris, - Policeman E. J. Grimley and Deputy Sheriff W. H. Cox. Thejary which has the case in hear ing Is as follows : -. D. Ik Gore, H. U. Oraig. Geo; O. Gaylord; J. T. Oanady, A J. Howell, Bertram Qoelch, I. C. Loftio, C. H. Ward, Thos. Nortbam 0. A. Bordeaux, W. A. Johnson and A. G. Hankins. jl The cases of J. B. and J. C.

Wilmington Lljnt Infantry Will Return from Charleston Ibis Afternoon made Excellent Snowing. i Those who returned from Charles ton last night are loud in their praise of the Wilmington Light Infantry and the way in which it conducted itself at the Charleston Exposition this week. Many say and they are not all Wil- mingtonians, either that Capt. Adrian had the finest body of men on the grounds, and the people should meet them at the station upon their arrival this afternoon with a brass bland. The boys should be shown some appreciation, and there is no bet ter way of doing it than turning out to welcome them home upon the arri val of the train from Charleston at 15 P. M. to day. J Alderman E. P. Bailey is "taking in" the Exposition with the boys; and yesterday afternoon telegraphed the Star as follows: j "The W. L. I. have done Wilming ton proud. Let the press and people show their appreciation upon ; the Company's arrival to-morrow." The hour of the Naval Reserves is as yet unknown. The ship is under going a thorough overhauling at the Exposition and may be ready to bring the sailors on the return trip to-morrow as scheduled. 1 AN AQED CITIZEN DEAD.

These Were Used at Tabernacle Baptist Church la Ralelcb oa Sonday.' . Raleigh News and Observer. An innovation in the Communion 8ervice was introduced in Raleigh on Sunday last at the Tabernacle Baptist church, where for the first time In Ra leigh individual communion cups were used. The use of these individual cups is a usual thing in the North, but In the 8outh their use is largely confined to the srreat cities. In North Carolina there is but one other Baptist church using them, and that is the church at Southern Pines. j i At the Baptist Tabernacle the mat ter has been talked of for a year or more, but there was some objection. This was largely removed when the sample cups were examined, and on Sunday it Is said that after a practical operation of the plan all objection ceasedj i The use of these cups is hygienic To each member there goes a little glass cup, with gold rim, and this is larare enouth for four thimblefuls of wine, but Is half filled. The cups are in trays, holding nests of forty, i these being distributed by the deacons, ana after all communicants have taken the element they are placed in .nickel nlated holders, one to every three per sons, and after the service these are collected bv the sexton. T The Tabernacle church has four hun dred of these cups and will continue to use them at communion service, which the members say isimade more solemn and impressive by the use of cups, one to each individual.
