CALLER vs.. CALLER.
Important Legal Points Arising out al
the Loss Of the Evening star.

Yesterday a most important case,
Nolvlng grave questions or law and
acts, was argued and decided before
Judge Woods, Of the Circuit Court of the
United States.
The main question at issue is one OF
slrviyorship between Mr.. James Caller,
", and his wife, both passengers on
NE Inflated steamship Evening Star,
sshich foundered at sea October 3, 1866
ar; James Caller, ST., had, by last will
ana testament, duly and legally made,
SSqueathed to his wife, Mrs. Maria
hoolnson, sum Of $1,000 in gold, and
ule improved property situated at the
@rner of Carondelet and Common
Court. :
MI. James Caller. Jr., the sole forced
aslr 81 Mr.. CALLER, ST., and a son by a
PREVIOUS marriage, was at the time ap-
solnled testamentary executor, and
ss.aaiiy put in full possession Of his
SStler estate, subject TO the claims Of
que heirs OF Mrs Caller. Since, Mr.
s'atnes Caller, Jr., has also died, leav-
ny lour daughters as heirs. over whom

me suit is brought by Mr.. Robinson

ms OF Massachusetts, and sole heirs OF
Sis. Maria Robinson, their daughter
~ NV nalf sister, who, it is alleged, died
s S'es'ate and without heirs in Louis
a., me petition alleges, and the whole
fa ,e hinges on this fact, that Mrs. Gal
survived her husband and was
lI ~ enabled to inherit from him
nil property bequeathed her in his last
M ana testament. The testimony
GsJ,IEuced by plaintiffs states that Mr..
nin iier was seen for the last time a few

hour after the ship went down floating
on piece OF the wreck. Witness AYERS
mat az three different times he heIped
mrs. TALLER to get into life boat, tbe
nont capsizing each time, and Mrs. Gal
,lcr finally disappearing. The petition
eu alleges that Mr.. CALLER being
os years old and his wife only "A, the
presumption Is that her greater strength
enabled her to survive him, and finally
prays for judgment against Mrs. James

sum OF five thousand dollars i'm gold.
Win legal interest from October 3. 1890
and also the surrender of the Gallior
court, together, without the income AZ
cr,ling therefrom from the same date
Inc testimony produced by plaintiff
was that of Q Mr.. Van Sickle. a LAWYER
from New York, and Mr.. Girard. n
negro minstrel, both passengers on the
Evenlhg star. their testimony being
substantially what has been stated
above, viz, that Mrs. Caller was alive
three quarters Of an hour after the shin
went down, and that Mr.. CALLER was
never seen after the ships last fatal
plunge.
The counsel for defendants. Messrs
Campbell, Spofrord and Schmidt. in
most brilliant argument, disposed most
OF the testimony OF Messrs
,"n 9ich!e anu t1rafu, showing that
yam Sickle had repeatedly given the
ne TO his previous statements. and
mat Gtrard was but mere tool |
IN his hands. Vhey moreover
produced written proofs that the testi
'nony for plaintiffs had been manufac-
tured by Van Sickle. and that he had
approached certain survivors OF the
Evening Star i'm the hopo of bringing
HON to testify in his interest, an at
-empt resulting most disastrousIy for
nm. as these very same parties came
onward and furnished evidence OF his
schemes. Judge SpofTord's argument
eft nothing for the plaintiffs to stand
lpon, though most ably represented by
ion Sheldon. who had taken charge of
he cnse Mt the death OF previous coun-
el, Mr.. Stone, of New York, and the
ury. after q short elaboration. brought
n verdict in favor OF defendants.

that these gentlemen look carefully at

The Knoxville Tribune gets off the
following:
A gentleman in the city noticed a
pigeon entangled in some string on a
treee so that it could not eNtricate itself.
A number OF boys were throwing stones
at it, but the kind man rebuked them
for their cruelty and drove them away.
He then got ladder and tenderly took
the frightened, fluttering little creature
in his hand, and the next day he OBJ
served that it made one of the best pies
that he had ever eaten.
