Across the a isle sat Premier Rnu vier with other members of his cabi net. practically the entire diplomatic corps and officers of the army and i avy. The members of the diplomatic corps were in full uniform. Scores of American sailors in the navy on either sode of the altar gave a fitting background to the imposing scene. The Body Delivered. After brief religious services Gen eral Porter, wearing evening dress ac eerdingto the French custom, with the red sash of the grand cross of the Legion of Honor across his breast, advanced alongside the masket and formally delivered the body to Mr. Loomis, as the representative of the United States government, who accept ed it in the name of the government and commissioned Admiral Sigsbee to transport it to the United tSatcs. As the surpliced choir sang “My Country, 'Tis of Thee” the entire as semblage arose and oined in the Cr-iins of the patriotic hymn. Eigh. brawny sailors Horn the Brooklyn then stepped forward and raising the casket on their shoukicis bore it slow ly from the church to the waiting gun carriage. This was draped with the national colors and was drawn by six black horses. T!o- eortege was now formed and preceded to the Esplanade Des Inval ided.

RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY HORNING, JULY 7. 1905. ONE DIVORCE LAW FOR ERIC NATION Judge Pritchard Would Protect the Home. SPEECH AT TOXAWAY Memorial Addresses by Various Mem bers of the Bar Association. Large Numbers of the Lawyers of the State Present. The Open ing Events. (Special to News and Observer.) 6 Lake Toxaway, N. C., July 6.—Th • meeting of the State Bar Association here is now in full swing, the at tendance being the largest in its his tory and the interest in the proceed ings being all that the most sanguine could desire. Among the principal events of the day- were: The strong, logical and elab orate discussion by Judge Pritchard on the relation of the State and the federal courts, in the course of which he advocated a federal divorce law; and deeply- impressive memorial ser vices which were held in honor ot members of the association who had passed away since the last annual meeting. An address in memory of Col. H. C. Jones was delivered by Col. Tillett, one in honor of Vharles F, Warren was spoken by- E. S. Simmons. A tribute was paid to the life and char acter of Hon. W. A. Dunn by .Judge Mcßae, while Messrs L. S. Overman, S. H. Isler, <’. B. Watson, F, 11. Bus bee, W. S. O’ 15. Robinson and others followed Col Tillett in his address on Col. Jones. Memorial speeches were delivered by Col. Davidson, Kope Elias and others on Mr. Warren and by Hon. John E. Woodward and Lieutenant- Governor Winston on Mr. Dunn. , Among the features of the night session was an excellent address by Chief Justice Hill of Arkansas. JUDGE PRITCHARDS ADDRESS. Judge Pritchard’s address this morning commanded the rapt atten tion and deep interest ol‘ all present. In speaking of the relations of the fed eral and slate courts and m advuca - ing a federal divorce law, he said in part: “There has been more or less con troversy as to the jurisdiction of th*- Federal courts, but the whole subject is regulated by statutes which have received the careful consideration of the Highest courts of the land, as a result their jurisdiction is well defined, except as to some questions which .ire yet to he determined. These questions are of the utmost importance, and upon their proper solution depend in a large measure the peace ami welfare of the American people. “In order to determine the jurisdic tion of the United States courts cer tain questions relating to the same must he made to appear m the record at the time suit is instituted: Firs:, it must aitirmatively appear that there is a diversity of citizenship, that is to say tnat all of the parties arrayed on one side of the controversy must be residents and citizens of a .State other than tlie State where the action origi nated. It must appear that either nl; of the plaintiffs or all of the defend ants are residents and citizens of the State where the action is brought, or that all of the plaintiffs must be resi dents and citizens of the State where tne action is instituted, and all the de fendants residents and citizens of the State other than where the suit is brought, or vice versa. It must also appear that the matter in dispute ex ceeds the sum of two thousand dollars exclusive of interest and cost before the United States courts can assume jurisdiction. Os course there ire many instances wherein the United States courts have jurisdiction to which I will not refer on this occa sion, inasmuch, as 1 do not clesire to tax your patience with a discussion of such length as would be necessary to comprehensively state the entire scope of the courts’ jurisdiction, hence it will only- be my purpose to discuss in a general way those matters wil.i which w e most frequently come in contact. “The Federal courts will also take jurisdiction of certain controversies in stituted in the State courts upon a proper showing. First, cases where j there is a diversity of citizenship and the jurisdictional amount is involved. It frequently occurs i- eases of this kind that suit is instituted against sev eral defendants, some of whom are residents and citizens of States other than where the action is commenced. When the question of removability de pends as to whether there is a separ ate controversy, and if it should be made to appear that there ts such a controversy, then that portion of ihe suit which is instituted against the non-resident defendants can be re moved to the Federal courts and tried separately and independently of the cause of action against the local de fendants, otherwise the petition for re moval will be denied. The second class of cases instituted in the State court removable to the 1 nited States courts for trial are those wherein the non resident defendants or any of them upon proper application make it ap pear to the court that they cannot ob tain a fair and impartial trial of the cause in the State Court on account of prejudice and local influence. There is t.iis distinction between cases which are sought to he removed on account of diverse citizenship and those sought to he removed on account of prejudice and local influence; viz: where it is sought to remove a case on account of diverse citizenship the application to remove the same must be made before the time when the defendant is required to answer under the State practice; and it must appear that all of the defendants are residents and citizens of another State, except as heretofore stated, in cases of separable controversies, while the act which au thorizes the removal of cases on ac count of prejudice and local influence among other things provides that “any defendant, at any time before the trial thereof,” may upon proper showing have the case removed to the Federal court. Therefore, even though a num ber of citizens of the State where the suit is instituted may be joined as de fendants with non-residents, such joinder cannot deprive the non-resi dent defendants or any of them of tin* right to have the case removed to the Federal Court. Where a case is re j moved from a State to the Federal Court, if for any reason, the is in doubt as to whether the Federal Court has jurisdiction of the subject matter of the controversy he may make a motion to remand the cause to the State Court, and it then be comes the duty of the court before whom the same is pending to decide' the question as to whether the court in the first instance had jurisdiction, and if the court should he of the opin ion that it did nqt have jurisdiction the case should be remanded to the State Court for trial. There can he no review of the court’s action in such cases, unless it should appear at some stage of the proceeding that the validity of the Constitution of the United States or pome other Federal question is involved in the controversy, and in that event the defendant would he entitled to a writ of error for the purpose of having the same reviewed by the Supreme Court of the T.ffrited States, after the highest court of the State had passed upon the questions involved.

ARE YOU GUILTY, MAN To this no Direct Answer is Given. He will Decide Later Whether to Re turn and Face the Charge. A Hunted, Restless Air. (Special to News and Observer.) Norfolk, Vu., July 6.—Claude M. Bernard arrived here this morning on board the Washington boat and spent several hours in this city. There was little about his manner or make-up to suggest to the casual observer that he was a fugitive from justice or a missing principal in an affair that had created the most widespread sensation in recent days in his native State. Where he came from or where he is going cannot be ascertained. At Old Point Comfort he boarded the boat and, beyond the admission that he spent the day and night before at that place, he said nothing that suggested the possible locality of his sojourn since disappearing from Wilmington or his probable destination save the fact that when he left here at noon he said he was going to Eastern North Carolina, where he says he will confer with counsel and then decide whether or not he will return home and face the charge against him and contest the suit for damages now pending. The charge against him of gross immorality lie was not disposed io dis cuss. Ho said that for the time being he had nothing whatever to say' about the matter, that in the minds of those interested irrevocable conclusions had Poen reached and therefore he deemed it not expedient to at this time a matter of so vital importance to himself as well as others. To the di rect inquiiy of your correspondent as to whether or not he was at all guilty' of the charge of immorality, he re fused to speak as to his guilt or inno cence except to say that his connection with the affair had been greatly ex aggerated. lie stated that he was on his way to Eastern North Carolina to consult counsel in reference to the suit which had been brought against him at Raleigh. In tfiis connection he stated that he would welcome the removal of that case to Virginia, as he could not possibly get justice done him in North Carolina. Speaking of Dockery Bernard ex pressed great sympathy for him and referred to his assailant as a cowardly cur. He further stated that if neces sary he would be willing to spend his entire fortune in Dockery’s defense. Bernard looks not the best in the world. While he does not bear any' marks to suggest that he has fared hard since his departure, tlmre are nevertheless conspicious evidehces of anxiety in his countenance, and, while he is beyond the process of civil courts of North Carolina so long as he re mains out of the State, he showed un mistakable signs of crucial suspense and. despite his self-evident resort to liquor, he was apparently far from perfect peace physically or mentally. STAMPEDE IN A CHURCH. sleepers Gave Way Under Thronging Negroes—Almost a Tragedy. (Special to News and Observer.) Wadesboro, N. C., July' 6. —The Fourth of July came very near being a fatal day' to some in the immense crowd of colored people which had gathered at Gatewoods Station church, about rix miles south of Wadesboro, for the purpose of having a Masonic piclnc. A great crowd was there from all parts of the country, and it was a red letter day amort the colored race. There were several addresses and other things to muse and enter tain. Rev. McCoy, a noted colored preacher from Fayetteville, was the orator of the day, and had just about reached the climax of his eloquence whenit began to, rain and the wind blew, and thundering and lightning drove the rest of the sons of Ham into tlie already crowded building and packed it to its utmost .capacity. All at once there was an awful crash, and simultaneously there was a peal of thunder and flash of lightning. The immense Crowd stampeded and made a mad rush for the doors and windows, falling over each other and tramping down women and children in their eagerness to get out before any one else. After the pandemonium and rein of terror was over it was found that the sleepers had given away and the floor had fallen in. No one was seriously hurt, but quite a number of women and children were bruised right badly. Negro’s Dead Body Found. The dead body of a negro by the name of David Thomas was found on or near by the railroad near Peedee station, this county. He had a gash in his head and tlie coroner held an inquest and the verdict of the jury' was that the negro came to his death from a blow with some sharp instru ment in the hands of some person or persons unknown to the jury.
