decisions handed down today:
Henry N. Frlsbee wu* convicted tu
toe circuit court fbr the eastern district
•in . ,? na for peoelvlng more than
$10 for the prosecution of u pension
Claim, tlie act of June 27, 1890. The
only question presented by the supremo
court relate to toe sufficiency of the
indictment. This. Mr. Jualtce Brewer
said, was established by the record
and the Judgment of the circuit court
waa affirmed.
■Hte case W James T. Shields, Jr., re
ceiver. etc., v*. John Coleman, et a!.,
appealed from the circuit court far the
eastern district of Tennessee presented
the single question of toe Jurisdiction
of the federal court to appoint a re
ceiver and take railitjad property out
of tne possession of a receiver appoint
ed by a Btate court. Mr. Justice Brew
er* for tlie supreme court, said It had
not this power and the case was re
manded to the circuit court for further
proceedings not inconsistent with that
opinion.
Mr. Justice Brown announced the
opinion and judgment of the court
upon the appeal of, J. T. Stokes and
eight others convlobwl in the southern
district of Alabama for conspiring to
use tin? malls of the United States for
an unlawful purpose. There were four
teen indicted for participating in the
conspiracy, none of whom were convict
ed. Tbedr scheme was to order goods
from merchant* in distant cities, with
out the intention to pay for the same,
certifying to one another's financial
ability andi reputation. The record
presented only questions affecting the
Indictment and toe admission of evi
dence on the trial. Error wa* not found
In respect to cither, and toe' Judgment
of the court below was affirmed.
C. F. AND Y. V. MORTGAGES.
Bondholders Prepared to Establish
Their Claims.
Baltimore, 3rd.. MarcK 18.—The com*
mittae representing the first mortgage
bondholders of the Caipe Fear and Yad-
Kin YeJiey teiiiuiiu held a. meeting here
today and completed final arrange
ment* for establishing toe claim* of
the first mortgage bondholders before
the special master 4lpp>lnfcd by Judge
Sltnontxm at the hearing to be Held at
Wilmington, N. C., tomorrow. This
committee represents about $2,800,000
deposited under the terans of the first
mortgage bondholders’ agreement Out
of a total issue of $3,050,000.
Hie property hoe been operated by
Gen. John Gilt of Baltimore, as re
ceiver, since April 1, 1891, and ha#
shown satisfactory results, considering
the times.
The bondhold -rs hope to get a de
cree of foreclosure at the April term
of court, and wilt probably buy the
property tn when It Is offered for sale.
The proposition to form an alliance
with the Boanoke and Southern has,
it Is said, been favorably received by
security holders of both companies.
Nothing definite In this direction can
be done, however, until the Cape Fear
and Yadkin Valley foreclosure proceed
ings arc disposed of.

Savannah, March 18.—The steamship
Horaa will sail from Savannah tomor

the true home of the sons of Ham.
The Korea came up the river this

the International Migration Soolety
which has Its headquarter* In Birming

tinues:
"The Impression was crested and sup
ported by most convincing facts that our
labors In ferrttlna out and enabling the
prosecution of unfaithful police officers,
Instead of being approved by the depart
ment, was an attack upon It
"Those whoss duty Is was to aid In de
tecting crime have united to pravant Its

'The Influence of this apparently rec
ognised antagonism upon a large number
ot wetnessea called before us waa mani
fest.
“Many persons—themselves law break
ers—who bad been the vie time ot extor
tion and blackmail In the poet, feared to
speak, being apprehensive that their dis
closures would be punished by greater
persecution hereafter.
“It la manifest that we should not have
bean confronted with this condition of

ed by honest and sincere co-operation of
tho officials who have the power to di
rect the service of the entire force. Du
ring our entire session no polk* official,
high or tow. has volunteerred one parti

except such as has been drawn from un
willing witnesses tnd nfttr persistent ef
forts. Members of tha fore* with no oth
er apparent motive than a desire to shield
their superiors have professed an Ignor
ance of wrong doing with which evidence
showed them to be familiar.
'Th* evidence has left no doubt tn our
minds that for years It has been the
practice of many police captains In their
respective precinct* to receive money as
bribes for protesting violators of law, and
to estort money from taw-abldlng dtt-
tens aa the price of exemption frtm po
lice Interference and annoyance. We be
lted that this practice has bran nul.d to
an extent unprecedented In the history of

•The enjoyment by the executive head
of tba forte of a considerable fortune ac
cumulated as the result of favors granted

•The distinction between the receipt of

court. Will Meyer... the youthful lulu
uercr oi Forest Crowley, mam oruicm^l
to hang at tho same time, but his caio
was also sent to the aupremo court and
was argued there today.
Carr's defense before the Jury wa* in
sanity, and hla attorneys will now taka
out a writ of lunacy to bo tried before
th* ordinary, hoping yet to save hla neck
upon that plea. Hla friends are de
termined to exhaust every move that
gives any promise at all of saving him
from tho scaffold, and If tha plea of In
sanity In tha court of ordinary fall* a
second time the governor will be nppeal-
ed to to exwclao executive clemency In
bla behalf. Carr himself took 1,6 news
of tha actlob of tha auprama court aa he
took tbe verdict of tba Jury—without ary
appirent emotion.
In the Meyers eas* there baa been no
Insanity p!ea and th* verdict ot the su
premo court will in all probability be tbe
seal of tba young man's fata If It la a
confirmation of the lower court, which
refused a new trial, the application for
which sms largely based upon alleged
new evidence going to establish tbs Iden
tity of the mythical "Brown Allen.”
The supreme court today rendered a de
cision which establishes a precedent In
contested election cases over county of
fice. Tbo case In point waa the contest
In Polk county where the Populist candi
dal* for tax collector w»a elected on tha
face of the returns, but on a contest
being made before the Judge of tho su
perior court of that circuit—Judco James
—the Democratic candidates war* de
clared legally elected. Then the contest-
tee undertook to ippral th* caw, to tho
aupremo court, but Judge James refused
to sign the bill ot exceptions, holding
that Ms decision was final. Just aa tho
governor's would bs, but the Populists
secured a mandamus against tha court.
The supreme court held that Judge James
was right In holding that hla decision was
final, ruling that the intention of the law
was that when the Julge of the superior
court waa given J irlriletl.in In such
eases It was not Intended tha- thtr*
should bo any appeal from his decision,
because his action was not of a Judical
nature, but should ho regt.-d'd »» similar
to thst of th* governor In such c. ft*.
Several other case# InvoM.ig s.mllar
points are now pending, but txtry's de
cision practically dortle* them a'i In
Lowndea county the PppnlW* wfil gain
an office by ths declaim which glv«s the
Democrats on* In Polk, so th* two par
ties brssk even cn It.
