IN IMPORTANT DECISION.

Motion TO Reopen the st. Paul g. Pacific
Foreclosure and Sale Denied by the
United States Circuit Court.
In the suit of Jacob s. Wetmore, ct al vs..
the st. Paul & Pacific Railroad company ct
al. in the United States circuit court yester-
day, decision was rendered orally by JUS
tice Miller. The decision was reported in
full for the GLOBE, but is withheld by the
Judge for correction of the reported version.
The substance of the decision may be stated
briefly. The suit was brought in the names
of certain holders of bonds of the st. Paul
d Pacific Railroad company, which were Sc
cured by the $15, 000, 900 mortgage on that
company's line from st. Cloud to st. Vim
cent. These parties, plaintiffs in this suit,
were, it is assumed, not directly parties to
the foreclosure proceedings through which the
line covered by the mortgage referred to
came into possession and ownership of the
st. Paul u Manitoba company. Demanding
relief in equity, they moved to reopen the
foreclosure proceedings and that they lie
made parties thereto. This would have set
aside the decree of foreclosure and the sale
hereunder. The decision of the court, as
pronounced by Justice Miller yesterday, is
in substance that the plaintiffs in this suit
have failed to make out sufficient grounds
for disturbing either the decree of foreclosure
or the sale Hereunder. Both must stand,
and the only relief the parties plaintiff can
have is that they may come in and take their
pro rata share of the proceeds of the sale,
paid in the court year ago.
The history of this suit is somewhat in.

were not parties to the foreclosure suit. AS
matter of fact no railroad mortgage could
ever be foreclosed if it was necessary first to
obtain the consent of all the bondholders
Out of this minority syndicate was formed
to bring tae suit now decided. 1t is said,
outside of court, that the syndicate had it's
origin In motion of some speculative
genius that there was millions, more or less
in it. 1t was accordingly advertised in Hol-
land that all bondholders who would come
| into the syndicate should have fifty per cent
of the net amount recovered on their bonds
after deducting the costs of the suit, and
should not be required to advance any mon
ey for expenses of the suit or to pay any
EXP snses if the suit was not successful

or had otherwise been strong
enough to force the st. Paul & Manitobs
company into compromise, the speoula.
ton would have been big thing, prob
ably. AS it -, it is out of court and the
doors seem to be closed upon it.
Three other similar suits are, however
yet to be passed upon. These relate, re
spectively, to the sales of the main and
branch lines of, st. Paul to Sank Rapids
and st. Paul to Breckenridge, under fore
closure of mortgages for $4,000, 900
100000 and $6,0O0,000. These sales
were, if remembered CORE city, under DEGREES
issued by the State court in this county; bn
1t is probable that substantially the same Law
and facts apply as to the motion denied by
| the United States court.

NOMINATE GOOD MEN.

The GLOBE has already called attention
to the necessity of nominating good csndi-
dates for Office in all parts of the country.
That necessity is rendered more imperative
by the nomination of Hancock and English.
1t is to be feared that too much confidence
will be placed in the strength of the nationa
ticket. Strong though it is, it will not bel
strong enough to carry every weight that
may be placed upon it. 1t is probable that,
feeling that the ticket is bound to win-to
carry all before it-some unworthy men will
foist themselves upon the Democratic ticket
in districts where the vote is apt to be close.
This will be done by means of manipulat-
ing the caucuses and conventions so as to de-
feat the purposes of the more respectable
portion of the party. Yet it should be
borne in mind that the men who are the
most successful in carrying primary elections
are not always the most successful in carry
ing elections, but often fail signally to poll
the full vote of their own party.

To the Editor of the Globe:

Will you please to answer the following ques-
tions through the medium of your valuable
paper 1. Is a man born of American parents
while soiourning in foreign land, eligible for
President of the United States II. Is man
born of naturalized parents who retain their
citizenship while sojourning temporarily in a
foreign land, eligible fer President of the Uni
ted States Your answer will oblige
A CITIZEN.
Both questions may be answered in the
affirmative. Andrew jackson was elected
President, though born on the high seas of
American parentage. AS long as citizenship
is not expressly forfeited, all are entitled to
its benefits, and whether born of native or
foreign parentage, they are entitled to all
benefits of such citizenship.

ON the last day of January of last year
Mr.. Hayes indited q letter to the present
candidate of the Republican party for Vice
President, then occupying the post of col
lector of the port of New York, in which he
made use of this language:

the constitution, 1 regard it as my plain duty

TIE DULUTH TRAGEDY.
An Unprov0ked Murder of q Well Known
Railroad Man on Sunday.

An Unprov0ked Murder of Well Known
Railroad Man on Sunday.
The GLOBE, yesterday morning, contained
special from Duluth giving an account of
the ruthless murder of young man named
Edward Brennan, which took place at that
city on Sunday afternoon. Tue dispatch
gave no particulars, but it did not take a
long time for the news to circulate over the
entire city after the Monday GLOBE was cir.
culated. The unfortunate young man was
we'll known il st. Paul, where most of his
relatives live, and where he claims his home.
He was o brother of Alderman Thomas
Brennan, and for several years past has
been connected with the st. Paul &
Duluth railroad in various capacities. At
the time of his death he was baggage master
of the regular passenger train between this
city and Duluth, and in that capacity left st.
Paul on Saturday morning, bidding a smil-
ing good bye to his numerous friends who
were at the depot, on the departure of the
train. In little over 48 hours thereafter
his lifeless remains were brought back for
burial. The special to the GLOBE gave only
the bare facts of his murder, and on the re-
ception of the news, his brother, Alder Ian
Thomas Brennan, and Superintendent of the
St. Paul & Duluth road, at once took
special train and went to Duluth, returning
yesterday at 1:3O p. m. The remains were
taken to the residence of Alderman Bren-
nan, No. 80 Collins street, from whence
they will he buried this forenoon.
As far as the GLOBE was aLle to learn the
particulars of bis death they are as follows:
Some three miles from Duluth there is a
beer garden, known as Fischer's Greek,
which is general resort on Sundays, for all
the idlers in and about Duluth. With Q
party of railroad boys young Brennan visited
this garden on Sunday, and about 6 o'clock
some disturbance took place in which young
Brennan's friends were parties. Being per
fectly sober, and anxious to prevent his
friends from getting into difficulty, Bren-
nan interfered, as peacemaker, and while
using his best endeavors to quell the dis
turbance, man by the naue of Herman
Opel, man with whom Brennan was not
even acquainted, struck him with loaded
cane back of the left ear producing almost
instant death. Brennan fell instantly and
expired without groan. 1t
was some time before those
who were engaged in the melee knew that q
murder had been committed. When the fact
became known that Brennan was dead

peared, although he was searched for far and
wide. Theauth orities being informed of the
murder, Coroner Thompson held an inques.,
resulting in verdict of wilful murder
against Opel. The excitement in Du,u b.,
where Brennan was we'll known and highly
respected, was intense, and if Opel is found
he will most assuredly be lynched. The
murderer is described as "hard Citizen
this not being the first marderous assault he
has made.

CONKLTNG IN THENuLEa

There is already row in the Republican
camp that threatens to cause great deal of
disafection in the ranks of the party before
the ides of November, and to dissipste
whatever hope the leaders may have enter
tanned of carrying the State of New York
for Garfield and Arthur. It seems that
Conkling is still much annoyed at the at
titude of Hayes in regard to the participa-
ton Of public officials in political affairs,
and is breathing threatenings and slaughter
in case change is not made, and that right
speedily. He is an astute politician, and
understands fully the power of public patron
age. He knows by experience that it can
be employed effectively either to help or
hurt a candidate, and he now declares that
he must have the federal patronage of the
State OF New York for use during the cam
paign or he will do no work. He may be
said to be on strike.
1t is an open secret that the nomination
of Arthur for the Vice Presidency was ex-
ceedingly distasteful to MIR. Hayes. The
fight over his removal from the New York
custom house was the cause of the rupture
of friendly relations between MIR. Hayes and
Conkling. 1t is not likely, therefore, that
Hayes will go out of his way to assist in the
election of man who has done so much in
directly to lower his dignity and dwarf his
influence in the Senate of the United States.
1t would be humiliating, too, if he should
abandon policy distinctively his own at the
dictation of one who has been his bitterest
enemy during his entire term of Office.
Those who have his confidence do not hesitate
to say that he is more than ever determined
to enforce, as far as his power goes, his civil
service order, more especially upon the pub
lie officers of the State of New York-at any
rate that he will not diverge from his beaten
track to accommodate either Arthur or his
master Conkling.
The situation is therefore somewhat COM
plicsted. Conkling knows that the party can
have no hope of carrying New York without
q liberal use of the federal patronage, and
sooner than participate in losing game he
will remain out of the fight, doing only
enough to prove to the country that he is
still loyal to the party. The support he will
give to the ticket, however, will be only half
hearted. He feels bitterly disappointed at
the defeat of Grant at Chicago, and enter
tains no particular love for Garfield. The
sop thrown to him by the convention in the
shape of Arthur's nomination for second
place. was but small satisfaction. He has
but little inducemant to enter upon deter
mined. aggressive, active campaign, and un-
less he can have his own way as to the dis.
tribution of the federal patronage he will
be quite likely to do nothing more than re-
gard for appearances shall demand. He is
in bad spell of the sulks, and Cameron
seems to share in his mental jaundice.

did not desire to speak on political subjects.
There might be some present who would dis
