with closed doors all day, taking the tes-

time Of the Senatorial election.
Judge Bledge, in the U. s. District

convicted Of robbing the mail while clerk

The question as to whether railroad
is obliged to furnish seats for all the
passengers to whom it sells tickets has
lately been tested before the courts of
Indiana, in which State Mr. Van Kon-
ten sued the Pittsburg Cincinnati and
ST. Louis railroad, claiming two thousand
dollars damages for putting him off the
cars, because he refused to give up his
ticket before the conductor furnished
him seat. The seats it seems were
all occupied and the conductor expelled
him from the train. The trial resulted
In giving the ticket holder all the dam
ages he claimed and goes SO far towards
settling the question that railroads are
obliged to furnish seats for all theil
passengers.

The cable news from Spain continues
to be rather mixed. though the Govern
ment seems to hold its own without
much difficulty. There is very charac-
teristic desperation in the hosting by
the insurgents at Cartagena of the black
flag, though they may be only too will
ing to exchange it for the white before
great while. The necessity of keeping
large force to operate against the
Reds prevents the Madrid Government
from interfering with the landing of
arms and ammunition by the Carlists.
As soon, however, as the former are sub
dued, there will not be much difficulty
in putting down the followers of Don
Carlos. Were monarchy to be restored
in Spain, Alphonso, the son of ex-Q Queen
Isabella. would have good chance to
reach the throne, but although he is
said to be getting ready to proclaim
his succession on Spanish soil, there
does not seem to be much show for him
at present. The Spaniards are not
anxious to decide "under which King,
Bezonian, live or die?" although they
have several candidates for such ghostly
honors.
