SEVENTY MILLIONS FOR HEIRS

Meeting OF Heirs OF Anneke Jams and
Others i'm Chicago-Wills Found In Hol-
land.
On Tuesday last meeting OF the Chicago heirs
of Anneke JAMS, the old time coquette Of this
island, was held in Chicago, to elect delegates to
the convention OF heirs to be held in Trenton. N.
j., on April a. at which further revelations were
made A Chicago paper gives the following:-
Sarah and Wolfort Weber and Wintjie Sybrant
brewer died in Holland In the early part of the
seventeenth century, leaving behind them con-
adorable number Of heirs and q considerable
amount OF property. They also left wills beauea In.
ing their possessions to their children and their
childrens heirs; but, In the course OF generation
or two. those important documents became lost in
some of the musty, c0bweb-covered courts OF dyke
land Recently while explorations were being
made In the interest OF the Anneke Jams heirs
who, 1t appears are Identical with the Webber and
Brewer helrs-the l0ng-lost wills were found and
1t discovered that about $40 900 were await
ing lawful claimants in Holland. This was joyful
piece OF intelligence to large number OF people In
this country who can trace their genealogical rec
ord back to the immediate descendants of the Web
bers and Brewers, some OF whom settled in New
York in the seventeenth century. Since the an
nOuncement was made meetings have been held in
different parts OF the country to make arrange
ments for proving heirship and securing the rich
prize 1t is now believed that the matter will be
brought before the United States Courts and def
nitely settled in q short time.

The Grand Jury Presenting the Dilapi-
dated Raymond Street Jail-A Perfect
Penitentiary.
The Grand Jury OF the Kings county Court OF
Oyer and Terminer have been visiting the various
public institutions of the county, and yesterday
reported the result of their observations to Judge
Pratt. They stated that their examination OF the
Pententlary, Hospital and Lunatic Asylum gave
them unqualified satisfaction; but they made
special reference to the Penitentiary under the
charge OF Keeper Shevlin and his deputy, Mr..
Edward b. Crummey, which seemed to them
to have very nearly reached perfection, ana fully
equalled, II not surpassed, the wel-knOwn Peni-
tentiaries at Albany and Concord. The Grand Jury
were not so favorably impressed with the Aims
house and Nursery and as for the Raymond street e
Jail they said they could scarcely find language
strong enough to express an adherence OF the
condition OF things In that institution: This state
OF AFFAIRS however, was not the result Oh any mis-

small number Of depositors Of the bankrupt
Suyvesant Bank met at the corner Of Eighth street
and the Bowery last evening, with view OF de-
vising some means to obtain portion Of
their funds entrusted with the institution. Tie
conversation was Of a general character, nothing
being agreed upon, except the avowed purpose to
combat IN the United States District Courts to-day
the proposition of Mr.. John H. Platt, receiver who
desires to sell the lease of building No. IA Broad
depositors assembled assert that better terms than
this can be obtained, inasmuch as the
Stuyvesant Bank originally paid the sum
Of 100000 for the lease, extending q period
OF ten years, and there seven yet to run, and,
under the circumstances, the transfer as proposed
would be manifest injustice to them. Although the
Stuyvesant Bank failed eighteen mon tbs ago the
depOsitors have never received . dime OF their
money, and hence they feel indignant at the delay.

The registered bonds OF these dates (which are
not available in the foreign marken were to be

past few weeks point to decided revival Of the
European demand for United States bonds the

ture, and giving it such exclusive privileges
as to compel all of them to obey its re-
ouirements. was re-establishment of the
slavery forever abolished by the 18th amend
ment to the Constitution, and also viola
ton OF the 18th or civil rights amendment
thereto, inasmuch as it places all butchers
at the mercy of the corporators, and de-
prives them of their business, which is given
over to the monopoly.
The court below held that as the chart,
or was for the declared purpose of protect
ing the health of the city, an object within
the lawful scope of legislation, there was
sufficient consideration for the grant of the
privileges and the charter was valid.
This opinion is sustained By the Supreme
Court which says the law does not prevent
butchers from doing their own slaughtering,
but only eompels them to do it in location
which It is the right and duty of the Legisla-
ture to 7x< The wisdom of the monopoly
granted, may be questioned, but there is no
justification for the assertion that the
butchers are deprived of the right
to prosecute their occupation or
the people of their daily
service of food. The regular fun of busi-
ness of slaughtering animals within city,
the inspection of the animals to be killed
and of the meat afterwards, are among the
most necessary and frequent exercise of
power belonging to States, and the exclu-
sve authority of Legislatures over the su y
ject is well settled. The answer to the OBJ
lection raised under the 18th amendment is
that personal servitude is there meant as
plainly indicated by the use of the word
''involuntary." The clause of the 18th
amendment which has been cited protects
the privileges and immunities of
citizens of the United States from the hos
tile action of the States and not those OF
citizens of the several States. The immu-
mites and privileges are distinct in nature
and if the plaintiffs in error have any priv
ileges and immunities infringed by defend
ants charter, which is not conceded, they
are not such as depend on citizenship of
the United States sand not
within the protection of such
clause of the 18th amendment. Nor
does that charter deprive the plaintiffs OF
property without due process of law, nor
deny them the equal protection of the law
within the meaning of the 18th amendment.
Dissenting Opinions.
Mr.. Justice Field read dissenting oph-
ion on behalf of Chief Justices Swayne,
Bradley and himself maintaining that the
right to follow any ordinary pursuit or avo-
cation of life was not given by law, but by
the Almighty, aud merely recognized and
protected by Law; that the Legislature Of
the State of Louisiana has no more right to
put all the slaughtering of nearly 12C
square miles of densely populated territory
into the hands of the few corporators OF
this company than it had TO put all the ovens
of that large city into the hands of privi-
legged few, and holding that the charter is
unconstitutional and void.
Justices Swsyne and Bradley also read
separate opinions.
