Ac., error to the Supreme Court of

of 1807, which sets fortli the classes
of debts which are exempted from
the operation of a discharge in bank
ruptcy, debts created liy fraud arc
associated directly with debts created
by embezzlement, and that such asso
ciation justifies, if It does not abso

fraud referred to in that section
means positive fraud or fraud in fact,
involving us does embezzlement,
moral turpidude or evil design,
and not implied fraud or fraud in
taw, which may exist without the
imputation of bad faith or immorality.

consistent with wlmt is supposed to
have been the object and intention of

ENGLISH OPINION.
London, February 4.—The London
correspondent of the Manchester
Guardian, telegraphs the document
signed at Adrianople tends to increase
the public distrust, and if Russia
were not pledged to refer certain
conditions to a conference, public
sentiment would lake a more decided
shape than distrust. The Liberals
have not heretofore been hearty or
unanimous in supporting of Mr.
Foster’s amendments to Ihe Govern
ment's motion for supplementary
bill. The signature of (lie armistice
will perhaps decrease the Gouern-
menl’s majority, hut under any cir
cumstances it will probably exceed
1(10. The Government may endeavor
to counteract the effect of the armis
tice by some announcement concern
ing tiie termsof the protocol. If they
are deemed unsatisfactory the Gov
ernment will not hesitate to say so.
The feeling to-night is far from hope
ful.

RUSSIAN OPINION AGAINST THE CON
FERENCE.
St. Petersburg, Feb. 4.—Public
opinion here, und even more at Mos
cow, regards the p ejected conference
with disfavor. Some papers speak of
the conference as a mere device of the
Buropean Powers to deprive Russia of
all site gained after so heavy an
penditure ot blood and trei

vor of an address to tiie country
which lie had proposed, lie said lie

retrocession of Bessarabia; also in
everything relating to tiie free navi
gation of the Dntuihc, and 111 obtain
ing liberal terms for Turkey as far as
consistent with the interests of Tur
key’s subjects.
REPLY OF MR. HARDY.
Mr. Gothnme Hardy, Secretary of
War, )>oiiitpd out that the Govern
ment were ignorant of conditions of
the armistice and Russian urniics
had readied a point which, if nego
tiations failed, might be dangerous
for Europe. It was im]iortant to bo
prepared, because wurs of Into were
sudden ond unforseen. Tiie Russian
basesof pence wereexceedingly vague,
mid although the Government lyui
been told that tiie condition relative
to the straits was withdrawn, it
still remuined. The Government's
object was to si-cure a permanent and
solid lienee. Grudging.£0,000,00(1 now
might involve a future expenditure
of £800,000,000. Tiie Government
hud been misrepresented throughout
the country and were not now going
to accept an empty voteof confluence.
If the vote of credit should he denied,
it was time for them to resign. They
did not desire to lead a crippled ex
istence. The Powers were armed to
the tooth and a single spark might
light a lire threatening the best in
terests of tiie country. They asked

It also removed a reason for nersevor-
ing in tin* vote, now that tner

ars in Old Swedes’ 'Church were

was soon thick with rumors, all hav
ing for their purport tiie coming of
the dead to lire. Among those who
had an inkling of the facts it was gen
erally agreed that something not far
liort of a miracle lmd happened. The
story is a remarkable one.
J. Harry Schrack, once a wealthy
merchant, lost nearly all Ids fortune
by endorsing tin* notes of others who
were either ingates or were them
selves unfortunate. With his only
son, Ids wife and two children hav
ing died, lie lias for some time oast

my body. My entire appearance
changed.’ M> ' appetite was gone.
Everything I swallowed was at once
thrown oft*my stomach. Last Thurs
day a week l'found f would have to
give it up. 1 felt as though the pow
er of action in my limbs was leaving
me. I was fearful of going to bed
and so I sat in a clmir for three* days
and three nights. I then made up
my mind that I would have to die
and asked to he put to bed, Wednes
day night I was taken with some
thing like a chili and spasms at (lie
heart. After coming through that I
seemed to revive until last Saturday.
Every hour during that day I experi
enced a change. While the rigid
hand would lie purple the left would
be white. When the left hand
became dark tiie right became white
again. The entire left side of my
body was numb and almost useless.
About 9 o’clock on Saturday ldght
my eyesight began failing me. \ lost
my hearing and my speech became
thick, my tongue being greatly
swollen. I lmd fully made up my mind
that I had to die. At about 4 o’clock
on Sunday morning the tips of my
lingers became like lead. My sight
was now entirely gone. My stomach
was terribly swollen and was greatly
inflamed. Each succeeding crump was
more severe and reached higher up
into the stomach. All the passages of
my throat seemed to he closed. Short
ly before 7 o’clock I asked to be
moved to the foot of the bed. My
head had scarcely touched tin* pillow
when 1 exclaimed: “Throw me
over!” ami then I found myself in
another land. The vision I looked
upon was the most beautiful that man
ever saw. It would he impossible for
me to give a description that would
do it justice. My llrst feeling was
that ol falling down a great height,
and then I found myself in a valley.
I walked along until I came to a ter
rible, dark, black river, at sight of
which I shuddered and feared. Be
fore me and beyond the river was a
black cloud. Others were walking
over the river, and, ulthough I dread
ed it, something urged me on and
I felt that 1 had to go with the oth
ers. As I got nearer to tiie dark
cloud it became bright and beauti
ful, and expanding it opened and
disclosed the most beautiful sight.
The llrst I saw was Jesus. I saw a
great temple and a great throne. I
saw my little boy, who was drowned
two years ago, and my other dead
child. I saw my dead wife; but I
could not touch them. I saw people
whom I had almost forgotten. I saw
my old gray-haired grandfather, who
died when 1 was hut two years old.
There were many whom I looked for,
but I did not see them.

“Then tiie vision began receding,
and r never can describe the terrible

myself again in bed. I felt, indeed,

I felt as though my life had been re
newed. I was a now man. 1 had
not then, nor have 1 now, an ache or
a pain. My eyesight, my hearing,
and my speech had fully returned,
and I ieel now as well as' I overdid
in my life.”
Dr. James II. (’antrell, tiie attend
ing physician, said that Mr. Sell rack
was attacked with nervous spasms of
the heart. “I expected hisdealh at any
moment. Me was in such a condi
tion since Sunday a week that I did
not dare to make an examination of
his lungs, as I knew lie could not
stand it. Air. Schrack told me that
during the four hours of ids uncon
sciousness he had hut one foot on
earth, and he was very sorry that I
had brought him hack, because lie
was so happy where lu* was.”
Showing how fully lu* lias recov
ered, Mr. Schrack said laughingly
yesterday that if lu* was to become
the subject of notoriety, perhaps peo
ple would lu* Hocking to see him. “Ill
that case,” and here lu* laughed hear
tily, “I will have to charge twenty-
live cents for admission, and then
perhaps Barnuni will he after me.”

MK. SCHRACK DIES.
Apparently Mr. Sell rack died at
twenty minutes of seven o’clock on
Sunday morning. IBs limbs became
cold and rigid, his lips colored purple,
and around his mouth was the blue
mark, generally supposed to betoken
deatli. A hand mirror was placed
over his mouth, but Rs shining sur
face was not dimmed. His friends
and neighbors who stood around prm
nounced him dead and grieved for
him. A few hours afterwards the
body was completely stripped that it
might he prepared for the undertak
er’s hands. Before washing tiie
corpse it was necessary to remove it
from the bed. A neighbor, Mr.
Charles Sliankland, lifted the body,
when, to his alarm, lie distinctly
heard a feeble groan. A hurried ex
amination developed tiie fact that
the man was not dead. The body
was wrapped in blankets and bottles
of hot water placed between them.
.Mr. Shank hind hurried for the
doctor, and, returning quickly, acted
under the instructions he had received
until the doctor arrived. In a short
time Mr. Schrack had regained con
sciousness, and was sitting up in bed,
Imt more than that, tiie limn who be
fore was lying at death's door, and
who was terribly afflicted with dis
ease, was almost as sound and well as
ever he was in liis life. Mr. Schrack
dreaded the idea of his peculiar case
being made public, but it the particu
lars were to he reluted lie said lie
would prefer narrating them himself,
so that the statement might be cor
rect. A Timcn representative yester
day found him sitting up in bed, with
a bright color in liis cheeks and look
ing like anything but a corpse. He
is a young man, probably thirty years
of age, a good talker and intelligent.
He spoke in a hoarse whisper, not

Ids catching a slight cold in conse-
I, quencc of the perspiration he was
I thrown into by the remedies employ
ed to revive him. He spoke earnestly
of Ids experience, hut was vivacious
and smiling, and at times joked about
tiie expressions of the doctor when he
found liini alive. He tells his story
as follows :
THE DEAD MAN’S STORY.
“Last September I had a terrible
attask of hemorrhage of the lungs
and since then I have not been able
to do anything, except for one period
of three weeks. My health at times
was fair, hut three weeks ago I felt
