SUPREME CoURT-caAMBeRs.
Another Phase In tho Lagrave Case.
Before Judge Daniels.

Another Phase In tho LaGrave Case.
Before Judge Daniels.
The lawyers, in one shape and another still
insist in keeping in court the Of Alfred E. La
grave. Before the Judge has had time to give
decision upon point In the case submitted for his
judicial consideration on Thursday, another phase
in the matter was yesterday presented to him for
adjudication. When Lagrave. at the instance OF
some score Of creditors who claim to have been
swindled by him, was brought back from France
under the extradition treaty and TWENTY-FIVE
orders OF arrest were taken out, Mr. Averill,
who is lawyer, took out and served on
Lagrave summons for debt contracted
before the latter's light, but had nothing to do
with bringing him back, and did not take out an
order Of arrest The case came up yesterday on
o motion by Mr.. Charles W. Brooke to vacate
Judgment by default obtained against Lagrave on
the summons. He argued that, inasmuch as Judge
Fancher had ruled the proceeding In the matter OF
Lagraves arrest IN France and his being taken In
custody to this country were fraudulent and not in
accordance with the treaty, as the arrest was not
made on public, but private, grounds, the prisoner
son and property, and by the comfy OF nations
our government Is bound to send him back,
and that this being so. Lagrave is. to all in.
NO proceedings could be taken to his detriment
other than If he were actually on French soil; so
Mr.. Aver stated that The he VAS as in Is no way con-
cerned about the Extraditlon treaty, or any lrreg
ular proceedings lie found the debtor here
and he served him with a summons. Judge
Daniels, after listening to the long drawn argu-
ments OF the opposing counsel, took the papers,
reservtng his decision.
New Legal Proceedings Against Carl
VOgt.
There seems to be no end to the legal entangle-
ments surrounding the case Of Carl vogt. 1t Will
be remembered that his extradition was demanded
first by the Belgian and afterwards by the Prussian
government for the alleged murder and robbery OF
his employer, the Chevailer du BOis de BiancO,
Brussels. owing to the want OF an extradition
treaty with Belgium both calls were refused A
new civil suit to recover part OF the stolen goods
has just been instituted In the name OF Stephanie

PIO MONO on AMERICA.

The Catholic Review, of New York, gives In
full the reply of the Pope 10 al American
deputation, headed by Mr. Glover, Of New

senled him with an address. The Pope said:
The beautiful and touching expressions OF
devotion and fidelity which 1 am after hear
ing, bring to my heart cunovie.ion 30 muoh
the greater because they express not only the
sentiments of those here present, but also
those OF all the Catholics OF America. In
truth, tlrese protestaLions, 30 sincere and
energetic render me profoundly obliged TO
the nation which offers them. Yes, leel the
obligation OF being specially mindful of It,
and st The same tIlEe Of praying for country

we'll in the fertility OF its soil as In ts Indus

BROWNING IN aoosEcREEK.

A brief announcement was made IN The
NEWS several weeks ago that a rumor OF
drowning In Goosecreek had reached The coro-
ner's office. The person drowned was COL
ored man, about twenty-five years old, named
Baruch Davis. Davis, with two other colored
men, Brown and Moutrie, had been hired by
o gentleman living on Goosecreek to bring q
wood fiat to the city. They reached the mouth
OF the creek on very dark and stormy night.
Fearing to risk the dangers Of the river on
such night, they concluded to cast anchor
In the creek. In performing the act, Davis
fell overheard and was not seen again. His
body was not recovered until a few daye ago,
when an Inquest was held, which ellclted the
above facts. The jury rendered verdict OF ac-
cidental drowning.

Notwithstanding the very explicit letter Of
