San Francisco Examiner.
A case has been pending in the
supreme court for year or more,
entitled Frazier vs.. Crowel, alias
Golinsky. Now, the defendant is q
little old lady oil ffty.fve or sixty,
who would precisely answer in ap-
pearance TO one OF Dickens crea
tions, Miss Flite. For the past six
months sue has been daily in attend-
ance on one OF her lawyers, or at
the clerks Office of the supreme
court, inquiring for news" The
case involved about $4,000 worth
of property, aud the little woman
had sold all her jewelry and spare
clothing to pay lawyers fees, etc.,
and was actually begging for bread.
The case was decided on Wednes-
day last, and the opinion appeared
in Thursdays papers-lhe decision
being in Miss GoIinskY's favor. A
little after four o'clock Thursday
evening, as one OF the officers Of
the supreme Court, Mr.. G. A. Suns
ner, was passing down Clay street,
and when just east OF the United
States restaurant, opposite Leides-
dorif street, he met the little old
lady, and, supposing that she had
heard the decision. greeted her with.
"Well, you won the casep Instantly
the successful litigant seized the
gentleman by the coat and cried
out, Hold me rpl | am going to
fall" And she tainted away. She
was taken TO an adjacent stairway
and properly cared for until she
revived. When thus greeted and
informed of her success in court
she was on her way to borrow or
beg four bits, with which to buy
bread for the next four days. To-
day she is worth $4,000:

Tonnage Dues on A american Vessels I'm
Spanish Pc rts.

We notice in the New York World
an article upon Reciprocity with
Spain" which gives the following
facts, that may be of interest to our
readers. 1t appears that American
vessels, when arriving and leaving
with cargo at Cuban ports, pay
81 80 per Spanish ton, when arriving
loaded and leaving in ballast pay
81 30 per ton, and when arriving in
ballast and leaving loaded pay 81
per ton. Spanish vessels arriving
in the ports Of the United States
pay a tonnage duty OF out 80 cents
per ton, and that only ouee during
toe year. American vessels, on the
contrary, arriving at Cuban poits
are compelled TO pay tonnage dues
on every voyage.
This matter should he looked into,
