volved, and yet they were always subject to the
sound sense and good judgment of Congress.
Take the tariff laws, for instance: Thousands
of millions of dollars were dependent upon the
judgment of Congress-, but did any one see an
absnrdity in the power of Congress to alter the
tariff laws? The supreme court of the United
States had decided the question of the power
involved in this controversy against the posi-
ton taken by the Senator from Ohio,
(Matthews,) and in favor of the position occu-
pied by the judiciary committee, and the bill
reported therefrom.
In conclusion, he spoke of the argument of
Senator Matthews, as one of ability, and said
he knew of no one able to make such an argu-
ment as that Senator upon such scanty sup
ply of legal decisions.
Pending discussion, Senator Sargent submit
ted several amendments to the bill to organize
the life saving and coast guard service, and it
was ordered that they be printed and lie on the
table. The amendments provide that the sec
rotary of the navy may accept the services of
volunteer crews at any of the life saving sta
tions, who shall be subject, when on duty, to
the rules and regulations of the service.
1t also provides for the drill
of such volunteers once each month and
each man shall receive three dollars per day for
such drill and in case of wreck, where said
volunteers are instrumental in saving life, they
shall each receive ten dollars, or when engaged
in saving property they shall receive five dol
lars each for each day employed. Another
amendment provides for the care of property
saved and its delivery to the owners, &c.
Senator Morgan then took the floor, to speak
upon the Pacific railroad sinking fund bill, and
the Senate went into executive session. and

FORGER ANDERSON.
THE SUPREME COURT OFLOUISIANA
TOHIS RESCUE.
The Exceptions all Dismissed. But the Fact
That He Forged Consolidated Return,
and Not an Original Return, Gives Him
His Liberty.

New ORLEANS, La, March 8.-The supreme
court this morning was crowded with men,
bers of the bar; politicians and other persons
anxious to hear the decision in the case of the
State VS.. Thomas c. Anderson, convicted in
true forged and counterfeit election returns
from the parish of Vernon. Chief Justice
Manning read very lengthy opinion in the
case. After reviewing the charge, verdict and
sentence, the court took up two of the
exceptions as being the only ones
necessary to consider in rendering
judgment These were sthat there had been
no preliminary examination" and that it was
not the practice to prosecute by information"
both exceptions were dismissed. The first on
the ground that the preliminary examination is
not essential and the second that prosecuting
by information had been a common rule in
criminal prosecutions for many years. The
| exception to the drawing of the jury was also
dismissed on the ground that violation of the
spirit of the law is not intended.
| Relative to the offense itself, the court gave
an abstract OF the election law, detailing it's
| requirements. The exact method prescribed
in the law was fully described. The record
| offered in evidence, did not conform with that
mentioned in the information. The return
| offered was the consolidated statement certified
by the registers of voters, and not the original
returns, and the statutes of our State
do not attach much value to this consolidated
statement. The original returns not being altered
would not change the result of the election,
and inter with the interest of the people.
The paper offered in evidence is not the paper
charged as being forged. In order to be
forgery, an instrument which it is alleged is
| falsifed must if true, be legally capable of
committing fraud. If every consolidated
return were forged and the returning board
complied with the law, and made their state
ment from the commissioners returns, nc
injury could result.
1t does not appear any paper has been forged
that is calculated with a compliance with the
law to change the result. 1t is the essence Of
the crime that it should be committed by {
public officer, and on a document which would
change the result of the election. This wal
not done. The letter Of John Sherman, Stan
ley Matthews and others, which appeared in TIN
record was alluded to by the chief justice, WIZ
stated that it should be treated by the public
in like manner as that of members of tn
House of Commons, who attempted to influ
ence the decision Of the court in the Tichborn
case. 1t was ordered that the verdict of tn
jury be set aside and reversed and the prisone
discharged from custody.
This decision of the supreme court virtual,
ends the prosecution against members of tn
returning board. The order of the court, how.
ever, ordering the discharge of Gen. Anderson
does not enlarge him at once, the State havin
five days in which to file application for re

O'Donovan Rosa stoned.

ToRoNro March 18.-O'Donovan Rosa lee
tured in st. Patrick's Hall this evening to an
audience of about 100. Beyond continuous
volley of stones for an hour and a half at the
lecture room, Kidding all the windows, no
damage was done, and nobody hurt. The
streets in the vicinity of the hall
were crowded by thousands of people
who apparently congregated to see a fight, but
not participating. Rosa not being known,
walked through the crowd to the hall I'M
molested. The lecture was brief and rather
tame At the conclusion the audience left
by twos and threes, and Rosa again passed
through the crowd unrecognized and was driven
off in cab. At midnight the streets are still
thronged with disorderly crowds, and should
Rossa' whereabouts become known, it is feared
q desperate conflict will take place.
