SURGICAL OPERATION.

The Arm of James Nugent. ex Policeman
Amputated Near the Shoulder.
In the painful and shocking misfortune that
has befallen James Nugent, the st. Paul police
force has lost one of its most faithful and eff
Gent members. As previously announced in
the GLOBE, the attending physicians upon Off
Ger Nugent, having given up all hope of his
restoration to health so long as he carried the
remnant of nerveless and palsied hand about,
decided to perform an amputation. In accord.
ance with this decision, q consultation of lead
ing physicians was held aud it was agreed to
amputate the injured member yesterday morn
ing. The operation took place at st. Joseph's
hospital at IL o'clock yesterday forenoon, and
was in charge of DR.. Wheaton, his family
physician.
The latter was assisted by the following well
known physicians: Drs. Stewart. Hand, Ha-
gan, Abbott, Flagg, Davenport and Smith.
There were also present Officers Cook and Ken
nallv and Mr.. Richard Bell. About IL o'clock
the patient was put under the influence of
chloroform and the left arm was amputated
about one inch below the socket. The opera
tion was scientifically performed and accom-
plished with dispatch. A few minutes after
the ordeal the sufferer had sufficiently rallied
to converse with his friends.
The affair which led to the unfortunate re-
suit yesterday occurred on the evening of the
22d of last July. On the evening named Off
Ger Nugent was on the Merchants beat, and
about midnight he was attracted by the cries
of "thief' in the vicinity of the Sherman
house. He repaired to the spot TO descry a
form beat hasty retreat up Sibley street.
Thinking to head him off Officer Nugent ran w
the alley in the rear of Wann's block and be-
fore knowing the existence of such place he
fell into an open erea, sustaining injuries from
which he never recovered. The trouble seemed
to locate in the arm and that member was ap-
p arently palsied, resulting in an operation as
above reno rted

tendent Walsh made statement of the plans
of his company, and read number of letters
of property owners along the street, which gave

company. A general discussion of the subject

presentation to foreign governments, upon
the occasion of the recent visit to foreign
lands by Gen. q. s. Grant, or Immediately
prior thereto, in relation to said visit, and if
so, its nature and character and all the cor
respondence relating thereto, is significant of
a private knowledge that such notification
was given. If it should prove to be true the
honors lavished upon Grant abroad would
be Invested of much of the glamour that sur

were extended to him asa representative of
the government, not as a citizen. The pro-
priety of such action by the state depart
ment, however, will be questioned greatly.

to him the right to determine and control the
action of the trustees in all matters appertain-
ing to the trust property and the execution of
the trust.
While there is no doubt that creditors may
combine to purchase the property of their debt
or, and such action is proper and will be sus-
tanned, yet if part of the creditors combine
with trustee holding the property for the
benefit of all the creditors to aid them in pur-
chasing it to the exclusion of the other credit
ors, and the trustee also has in his possession
as agent the evidences of debt belonging to the
creditors with whom he has combined, and the
property by the act of the trustee passes into
the possession of those creditors at price much
less than its value, it can hardly be claimed
that purchase thus consumated is not in
equitable. Such is one of the charges in the
bill and it requires an answer SO that the court
may determine upon the proofs at the final
hearing, whether it is true or not.
The demurrer Is overruled, with leave to an
swer at the July rule day.

Another Decision In similar Case.

Another decision was rendered by Judge
Nelson in the case of D. Koopholler, against
the st. Paul & Manitoba Railroad company,
John 8. Kennedy ct al. In giving his decision
the court holds that the complaint makes no
substantial evidence of fraud against
any of the trustees of the deed to secure the
$15, 100000 issue of bonds. 1t is held that the
charges against the order of the court author
izing the receiver to take measures to construct
the unbuilt portion of the road offered no
ground of equitable relief, the charges against
the decree being viewed in similar manner.
The court also holds that the allegations of
the bill attacking the trustees are not entitled
to any relief. In conclusion, it is held that if
the complainant is entitled to any relief
against the sale and the confirmation thereof
on petition and proper showing he might be ad-
mitted party to the original foreclosure suit
and his objections would then be considered.
1t is suggested that he can have such oppor-
tunity at the next June term of the court.
The demurrer is sustained and the bill dis

The Annual Meeting-Reports Of the Pres
emit Officers and Election OF New Ones.
The annual meeting of the st. Paul Library
association was held last evening, w. D. Cor
nish in the chair, a large number IF members
being in attendance. Several reports were sub
mitted, and the meeting resulted in the cleo
ton of officers for the ensuing year.
The report of the library committee was
first submitted, calling attention to the pros
perity of the library during the past year and
to the number of volumes added to the col
lection. After referring to the library course
of entertainments, the report alluded to the
report of the council committee appointed to
consider the proposition of establishing free
library in st. Paul. The report of the COM
mittee was embodied in full and signed by
Messrs Dawson, Rhodes, Smith and Griggs.
The gentlemen reported in favor of establish
ing free library next year, the full text of the
report having appeared in the GLOBE at the
time it was submitted to the council. The re-
port concludes with an exhibit of the number
of books on hand, as follows:
The report of W. D. Cornish, president, was
read, calling attention to the financial con-
dition of the society at the commencement of
the year, after which the report speaks of the
absurdity of seeking revenue to maintain the
association by the literary bureau or lecture
course, but that the city should endeavor to
establish free library under the provisions OF
the law of 1875. The necessity of free Ii
brary is urged, and the subscription method is
spoken of as having obtained the limit of sue.
cess. The present library is spoken of as 9
reproach to the wealth and culture of st. Paul
and hopes are expressed that the time is moi
far distant when st. Paul will be enabled te
boast of as fine library as any city in the
country. A general review of the work &C
complished by the library is given, and the re
port closes by referring to its present wants
and resources.

The Reported Charges Against Mayor Kal

SAN Francisco, May 1l.-Regarding the re-

visor Stetson, chairman of the finance comit-
tee, which had the matter in hand, states, to-
day, he knows nothing of any such charges,
aside from the report of the committee, on
that subject, made week ago. As far as can
be learned, the finance and Judiciary commit
tees to which the matter was delegated, have
had no meetings, and no further action has been
taken on the subject since submisson OF the
report. Certainly no charges have been filed in
the court to date.

NJ. f.. General Conference-Work of the
American Sunday school Union.
CINCINNATI, May l1.-Bi1hop Harris pre-
sided at the session of the general conference
to-day. Devotional exercises were conducted
by DR.. Payne, colored delegate from the
Liberia conference. The entire session was
occupied in the consideration of the report of
the committee on Episcopaly as to the number
of bishops to be elected tomorrow. The chair
man of the committee, DR.. j. NJ. Trimbler read
the majority report recommending the election
of four bishops. DR.. Wheeler read the minority
report, signed by twenty-four memb ers,
recommending the election of three bishops.
Gen. G. i. Fisk, on behalf, as he said, of .
number of the committee, moved that six
bishops be elected. The subject was discussed
by DR.. G.. Curry, DR.. j. M. Buckley,
DIR. r. NJ. Hatfield and others, developing
the widest diversity of opinion as to the needs
of the episcopacy. DR.. Curry advocated such
a change in the episcopacy as would allow the
location of each bishop In q particular locality
during the next qustrennium, but as this plan
couldn't be accomplished he was in favor of as
few bishops as possible, The action taken by
the conference was in accordance with the pre-
cedent of previous conferences. The commit
tee having recommended four new bishops the
conference refused TO increase the number by
voting down Gen. Fisk's motion, defeating the
minority report by vote of 1919 to It's, and
then adopting the majority report.
