THE Law IN THE DANA CASE.

CERTAIN STATUTES SAID TO HAVE BEEN OVER
LOOKED IN JUDGE BLATCHFORDs DECISION.
To the Editor OF The Tribune
SIR: In the case of Charles A. Dana, Judge
Batchord thus up the result of his official abors
The act OF Feb 27 1901 gave 10 the Circuit Court OF
the United states but the act OF 1893 does give
the Criminal Court OF the district all the vested
states The latter gives such Criminal Court all
the Jurisdiction in the counties composing the district
in these counties for the trial and punishment OF ali
crimes and ofenses. In view OF tie fact that
OF the District cognizance Of all crimes and Of
enses committed within the District, and also gave to
IL all the powers by law in the Circuit
the United States and that the act OF 1913 omits 10
the Criminal Court established by the powers vested
in the former Circuit Court Of the District in criminal
matters while giving to 1t the jurisdiction then held
by the said Circuit Court in the district in criminal
IL Ia impossible 10 regard the Jurisdiction

Brightly the creating the Criminal Court Of the

TIERS.
A backward Spring has delayed the boating season,
70 that at the present time few of the clubs can give
any definite information as to their Spring pro-
grammes. Last year at this time large majority OF
the clubs had training and the selections were
fully determined upon, while this year many have
still to launch boat from their houses. Most of the
college crews have been in training but the amateur
clubs have done little beyond making necessary
preparations for the opening Among the latter,
few races are spoken of beyond the regular club re-
gattas and these as a rule are anticipated return
races of last year. The latest information upon the
subject generally is given below.
