Mr.. THoAsoS's SUIT.
1aAr nrn thu than editor 0f the ;%rn{}-
net. A. u. Thomson, WIS oustc1 flom his pasi
tion by piece OF diplomacy which has this week
become the subject of. u suit for Keceiver to
the Sentinel property, Mr. Thomson being the
complainant, mud tie President and other stooh-
hoIdcrs defendants. Complainant alleges that
defendants Obtained possession OF the concern by
issuing SlU 100 OF stock. acquiring It themselves
aud thus securing . majority-vote by means Of
Matt Carpenter, President. and Mr.. Botkin was
appointed editor III place OF Thomson, who
tlonccforth had no moro to 90 with tile paper,
although tho largest individual stocklolder.
Con1plaloant makes other alterations, but the
above is the key to the whole. Tho defendants
ara understood to claim that it Was Mr. Thorn
son himself who caused the issue OF stock, with
thu object Of ovcrreachipg tho other stocehold-
era. but they wcre too quick for linn. and got
hold OF It in self protection. Altogether ,hers
ls very pretty funlily quarrel brewing, and fur
thcr Developments will doubtless appear before
the annual election. which takes place the fast
reck in January. The Sentinel has become 4
very valuable property, snd Is we'll wo-th fight
ing for. "
JUDGE HowE's EEsIGSAT1o::.
The resignation Of Judge Howe. telcgrnphed
from Washington. has been confirmed here by
private letter. It is also stated that Halbert Z.
Pains, formerly partner with Carl Schurz in this
city, and member OF Congress from this Con-
gressioual district, has received the appointment;
aud this is generally believed, although tue Ac-
publican lawyers Of the State If canvassed,
would probably prefer Charles Z. DyoE,
Of undoubted ability and integrity, who has
never forfeited the respect and confidence OF
those wLo know him. nnd IS acceptable to men
Of all parties. The resignation OF Mr.. Howe
had long been expected. as he has never since
his appointment to the Office been able to attend
to his du ties for many days together. his heaith
las been SO bad. Either Paine or Dyer would
be acceptable to the lawyers Of the Stale, but
Dyer would be preferred.
