Decision by the Court Of Comm ission ers
of Important Points-The Claims Of
Senmen for Wages and Losscs-Defects
of the Law.
WASHINGTON Oct. 7, 1874
Several interesting points we're raised in the
Court OF commissioners OF Alabama Claims to-day.
r. NJ. Corwine, OF Washington, submitted the
question that where several parties are con-
cerned In the same claim one or more may pre-
sent petition, leaving each claimant to furnish
his own proofs within the limitation OF law. The
reasons assigned for this question were that as
In the case OF indemnity for seamen's wages and
effects, being in many Instances for small amounts,
while some OF the parties might be in this country
to represent themselves and their companions
In the form OF peution others mgnt be At sea Tor
long voyages without such advantage. Therefore
1t but just that their interests should be pro-
tected In their absence In the manner proposed.
me Court, In response, delivered opinion to
effect that such an arrangement was lnadmlsslbe
under the law creating the Court. Three OF the
Commissioners were on the Bench to-day; but the
two VINO were absent had previously expressed
themselves favorable to Mr.. Corwine's PROPOSE
tion. Mr. Creswell, government counsel, agreed
with the Court but SAID any papers or petitions
could be filed with the CLERK subject to demurrer.
In this the Court silently acqulesced, and there
fore the question may again be considered wnen
case shall be made up and presented.
CLAIMS OF SEAMEN.
G. 9. Duncan, Shipping Commissioner OF New
York, with the permission OF the Court. made
statement IN behalf OF the sailors His object
was II possible to secure TO them the indemnify
1or wages ana eHects TO whlch they were entitled,
Many OF these sailors were now and would be abb
sent from the country tor long time, and, there
fore. could take no measures IN their own behalf.
The shipping Commissioners were under the di-
rection OF United States Circuit Courts, which
could act as the cust0dians OF the moneys awarded
and pay the same to the In terested parties the
presentation OF the proper proofs Such sums as
should not be paid out would, OF course, be re-
turned TO the Treasury.
The Court, while appreciating the suggestion
and expressing It's sympathy for that class OF men,
said 1t could not authorize such an arrangement,
as the law was specific In It's provisions.
Mr. Ureswel thought the remedy in the case
presented would properly be with Congress, as
the law under which the Court was organized pro.
the Secretary OF state, and by him sent to the
Secretary OF the Treasury, with whom rested the
duty and responsibility OF paying the awards to
the parties respectively designated.
Mr. duncan remarked that he did not expect
the Court to make such an arrangement as he
had suggested, but brought the subject to It's at
tentiOn IN the hope that provision 10 meet the
case would hereafter be made by Congress.

Charge or Judge Mexican to the Grand
Jury-The Acts OF the Legislature and

Looked After.

Looked After.
SALT LAKE CITY Oct. 7, 1874.
Judge Mexican, IN his charge to the Grand Jury
to-day calls their attention to the acts OF the past
Legislatures unlawfully disposing OF valuable
tracts OF land and extensive ater privileges and
timber lands to Brigham Young and other persons.
In consequence OF these enactments settlers have
been forcioly dispossessed of their rights, and
even murdered or thrown into the Jordan River.
The Legislature also enacted that resolutions were
equally valid with acts, and under this rule the
Appropriation bill, vetoed by the Governor last
winter. was passed as resolution and taxes un-
lawfully imposed upon the people.
Tie calls attention also to the other acts of the
Legislature, among which is the transfer OF the
property OF deceased persons to a perpetual imm-
grafton fund; the establishment OF the Cnurcn o
Jesus Christ OF Latter Day Saints and the powers
conferred upon 1t, and the reasonable resistance
OF the Mormons to the United States authorities.
lie urges upon the Jury to look carefully into the
institution OF polygamy and to bring some of the
most lnnuentlal p0ygamists TO the bar OF justice
to bear IN mlnd that the doctrine OF poly amy
goes hand In hand with the murderOus doctrine or
blood atonement, and to look more particularly
after the principals than the agents.
