Investigating Maggie JOhnsfensz
Death.


An inquest was held by Coroner Ma
ley on the body of Mrs. Maggie johnston
who lived with her husband at the cer
ner Of Hamburger and Cross streets, and
who died while giving birth to a child
on the IS. inst. DR.. Werner attended
to the case and had resource to craniot
tony.
The Coroner was notified, and had thu
body, which had been inferred at st.
Johns Cemetery, exhumed. The q.ies.
ti0n in the case was whether Dr. Wer-
ner had right to take recourse TO the
means OF cutting open the cbild's head
without consulting other physioians
about The case, in order to save thA
mothers lite.
This means is often resorted to, buA
generally entails the death OF both
mother and child. Drs. R,chardsoa.
Amick, Emmert and other physieians
gave their testimony in regard to the
efficiency Of DIR. Werner. Under the eir-
cumstances it was thought that the d se-
tor was justified in taking the course he
did, and DR.. Maley instructed The jury to
that effect.
The jury returned the following yezs
diet: death from natural causes, the
result OF exhaustive child labor; and We
exonerate DIR. Werner from any blame in
the case."

ton will settle that. Any way,
she sat down on that section Of
the court. Judge - issued a
scire Jacids, dismissed the case at
once aud aharded a procedendo.
She left the. court very much ex-
cited. She ssaid TO her husband
in the next room that she had "sat
down on q great long man." The
other section OF the. court was
moved in the matter, but took no
action. The questions are: Will
this afford a legal precedent for
women occupying judicial posi-
tions2 Was the court being a court
of no original jurisdiction, justified
in the Steps taken? If so, it must
be under the power given to sus-
tain the dignity of the court by
proceedings for contempt. Then
the question arises, Could the dig
nifty Of the court be sustained UNI

Was there a sufficient quorum to

THE UNION AND AMERICAN
Thursday, February "a, 1875.

LAST week nc publsahea d list Of
names under the caption, "Demo-
cratic Executive Committee, First
Congressional Dist" 1t Is Gus
tomary to publish this list at the
head of this column, keeping it
standing through the campaign
but we cannot so recognize 1t until
we understand more clearly the
nature Of its duties. If it is in
tended as a committee TO look af-
ter the congressional campaign, we
call upon the gentlemen compos-
ing it to discard the name and
make no effort to perform the Of
fees of such a committee, because
there is such a committee already
in existence and fully capable of
attending to the matter. Said
committee was appointed by the
last democratic convention for the
district and is the only regularly
constituted committee, while the
new committee received its APP
pointmcnt from the State Execu-
tive Committee we presume. No
such invasion of the rights Of a
properly constituted committee will
be tolerated, and the conventions
and committees in the other end
of the State should by this time
have realized that their ~interven-
ton in the affairs of this district
must ever be futile and their ia
voritism fatal to its object.
However, if we labor under any
delusion in this matter, we hope
some one will correct our informa-
tion, when we shall be happy TO
give the committee its proper rec
ognition.
