Court CuEIiu0s.


A proceeding was instituted by Mr.
Harding against the executors Of A. j.
NJ. Browne to revive a Judgment obtained
in 1851. The reason of the delay in>pav'
ing the Judgment in this case was that
Browne was always considered insolv.
ent; that the creditor was simply wait
ing until Browne should get his share Of
his fathers estate, and that that contin-
gency had happened. The Court or
dered the Judgment to be revived.
A demurrer which was raised in the
case of Fanny A. Maxwell against Urial
and Julia Phillips and j. E. Brown was
sustained. The defendant, Philips, held
a lien on a portion of property consist
ing of two lots, and the plaintiff held a
lien only on Lot No.2 The ground upon
which the demurrer was sustained was
that the properly was amply sufficient
without No. 2 to pay the debt OF the de-
fendant Phillips.
Judge Murdock decided the case OF
Lockwood Bros. g. Co. against j. p.
Swine yesterday, which had been ap-
pealed from Magistrates Court. The
plaintiffs brought AN action against the
defendant before Magistrate for $3l4,
founded on an undertaking given by de-
fendant as bail for stay OF execution, in
a case OF Lockwood q Co. against Jacob
Swine. There was motion by defend
ant to dismiss the action, upon the
ground that the amount claimed was be-
yond the jurisdiction of the Magistrate.
The Court found the claim to be a Just
one, and therefore dismissed the action.
THE BATES WILL CASE.
In this case VIM. Rankin was called
and testified as follows: I appraised the
property Of John Bates. Tn. total value
In 1859 was $847,S43. "A, g. Horton. the
next witness called, valued the property
at the same figures in 1869. Thomas
French testified that he had known John
Bates thirty years, and visited him down
to a short time before his death. Never
saw anything defective in his mind;
never saw any change in it.
Fred. Raibel testified that he attended
the appraisers last week, in order to
show them John Bates property on
Western avenue. Agreed with the ap-
praisement made by them, with the ex-
ception that in some cases he thought it
was too high.
Frank Foster said he had visited Mr..
John Bates several times, and ON Christ
mas day 1868, took some plum pudding
to him from Mrs. S. e. Smith,
General Hickenlooper, son-in-law of
A. II. Smith, testified that he know John
Bates, and thought he had strong
mind.
The inventory of the personal estate of
John Bates was put in evidence. The
first item was one of ninety one-thousand
ten-forty United States bonds. worth 107.
The total amount of the personal estate,
$295, ,461 61.

THE English Radicals do not intend
that the appropriation to defray the ex-
pense Of the Prince of Wales visit to
India shall be made without rumpus.
They 60 so far as to assert that the $780,
DOO will not be spent in "exercising gen.
erosity and displaying splendor," as it
was put by the Prime Minister, but that
being hard pressed for funds, the Prince
will leave very large proportion Of it to
meet the demands of his creditors at
home. This may be one of the consider
Rtions, but doubtless Mr.. Disraeh is in
Earnest when he urges that the imagina-
lions of the millions 'ot people in remote
Asia may be dazzled by dis
play of splendor and generosity
Dn the part Of their future sover-
Bign to the extent Of making. them
easier to hold in British grasp.
fhe sum asked is a large one tor such
purpose, even in these days OF profuse
Government expenditures, and as "the
custom of making such ceremonial pres
Dnts need not be observed, but the Prince
merely placed in a position to exercise
generosity and display splendor," it is
probable that he Will be able both to
Batisfy the dusky monarchs and their at
tendants and have handsome sum left
10 help meet the demands at home. 1t
Is intimated that these sxpedients are
necessary not SO much because OF the
profligacy of the Prince as from the fact
that he has to meet most OF the expenses
necessary to the dignity of the crown,
while the appropriations for these pur-
poses are made to the Queen and 60 to
help swell her private fortune.

Baseball In Cincinnati.

The grand game on Saturday after
noon between the Stars and Ludlows
created wonderful enthusiasm in the
breasts of our baseball players, and de.
termined our citizens to reorganize a
club as formidable as our old "Red
Stockings"
Subscriptions were Immediately solic.
tied among the lovers of the game, and
nearly $4,000 were subscribed in sums OF
$40 to $1O0.
John r. Mclean, ESQ.,, leased ten
acres OF level ground adjoining the
United Railway Stock-yards on the
north, between the Marietta and the
Hamilton and Dayton railroads. Prepa-
rations have been made for immediate
grading, and a hundred men will by to-
morrow noon be employed upon the
grounds.
Negotiations have been made for the
lumber that is to be used to build the en-
closure, covered seats to accommodate
10, 900 people, and stands for the officials
and reporters. The grounds will be de-
voted especially to baseball, but will
also be used for cricket and other attn
letic games.-
Col. John P. Joyce, the pilot of the ia
nous Red Stockings, will, in few days.
leave for the East TO secure the services
of the best baseball players. He thinks
he can secure George and Har rry Wright
and Charley Gould, all old members of
the Reds. Within three weeks or a
month we will inaugurate new famous
club on the above grounds.
The Marietta and Cincinnati. and
Hamilton and Dayton roads will carry
passengers to and from the grounds at a
rate of i've cents per single trip. Car
riages and vehicles will have desig-
mated place set apart Tor them.
Subscription papers are being cireu-
lated to-day on Change and the Board
of Trade rooms, and at other public
places, and it is believed the subscrip-
t1ons will shortly reach $4,000.
A meeting will soon be called and a.
regular club organized, and Cincinnati
Will again carry its victorious banner
over the country.
The Probascos have reorganized with
about the same nine as that Of last year.
and will be ready for the sport in a few
days.

WHY NOT REYIYE II2

A silk-raising mania, or at least a
branch of it, took possession of this
country between the years of 1885 and
I840, and thousands of acres of the Mo-
rus Multicaulis, or Chinese Mulberry,
were planted, and the country and the
farmers ran wild on the silk-raising prof.
sct. The result was as might have been
anticipated. The supply was infinitely
greater than the demand, and the pro-
iucers of the country having not then as
Row arrived at that condition when they
yould wait more than one season for the
result OF their 1abors, the project was
abandoned, the cry of humbug raised,
md the farmers, disgusted with their
mulberry plants, dug them up, root and
branch, and burned them, in order that
hey might have the use of the land for
products sooner made remunerative.
There were at that time no factories in
he country for the manufacture of silk,
and comparatively few worms were
missed, and the result was in conse.
yuence as above indicated.
The effects of the epidemic were, how
Uer, not entirely lost, and the few trees
preserved and the few who retained con-
Idence in the project have, now that
he proper time has arrived, begun to
make showing in the right direction
ind to attract attention, and are proving
% those giving the subject careful
thought that the project properly car
fied out may be a success and may add
infinitely to our resources as manufac-
mring nation. There are now LAT silk
Weaving establishments in New York,
Kew Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland,
Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hamp-
Sbire and Vermont, which employ $15,-
100000 Of capital, produce s25, ,000,0 900
worth OF silk goods annually and pay out
y, ,0O0, 900 annually to their twelve thou
Tand employees.
The great trouble at present is the re-
verse Of that which defeated the scheme

forty years ago. There was then more
production than manufacturing capac-
ity. There is now more manufacturing
capacity than home product, and large
amount of raw silk is annually Imported
to give employment to the factories.
The result is that while the work is prof
liable to those engaged. 1t is not so
much so as it might otherwise be, and
the industry is limited to comparatively
small proportions.

ably raised has been thoroughly demon.
strated. Forty years ago the Lowell
girl gathered mulberry leaves, fed the
worms, cured the cocoons, reeled the
silk and sold it to the nearest store in
exchange for articles of merchandise.
frequently single person in this crude
way would produce and find sale for
from rs to 100 pounds OF the raw material
per annum. Later, however, the Lowell
factories were erected, and employment
and fixed rates and cash prices offered,
and the silk-raising industry was 'aban-
doned. One county in Connecticut be-
tween thirty and forty years ago raised
annually nearly 1O,OOOpounds of raw silk
and exchanged it in this way for the nec-
essities of life.
While the attendant circumstances
have in the most of cases thus farproved
unfavorable to silk raising in this coun-
try, enough has been done to show that
it may be successfully followed and,
now that the country is prepared, it
is seen also that its culture and manu-
facture may be highly profitable. 1t has
been sufficiently tested in nearly every
State of the Union to show that silk may
be produced in almost all parts of the
country, and now that the factories are
ready, the only need is that it be
raised and made ready for them. To
prepare it for their use and make it
equal to that imported, reeling factories
are needed, and with this addition to
our present facilities there is no reason
why the United States should not only
produce her own silk, but furnish other
portions of the world with her manufac-
lures, which, those using our native
material say, may be vastly superior in
quality to that grown and manufactured
abroad. y
The value of silk manufactures i'm
ported into our country during ten
months, ending April 80, 1915. was $780,
S19,324, and for ten months of the pre-
ceeding year was $21, ,931, 500. Not only
might this amount Of money be annually
retained at home and distributed among
the working classes of our population,
but large quantities of goods might be
for expectation. China
derives from raw silk alone the sum oil
bSO,000,00O annually, Italy $40,0O0,OOO,
France and India $25, 900, 900 each, Japan
;17,00O,000, and other countries lesser |
sums. There is no reason why the United
states may not produce the raw material
10 readily as these other countries, and
when this is done and the present man.
facilities brought into full |
operation and enlarged according to de-
nand, the silk culture and manufactur-
ng industry may become one of our
powerful resources and blessing to our
aboring people and the country at |
arge.
