Extraordinary Precautions Against
The Nthiiists-DcspOtic Measures
Proposed.

Associated Press Dispatch.
LoSDos, June 22.-The Berlin corre-
spondrnt of the Times telegraphs that he
has received letter from ST. Petersburg
which says Two hundred police have
been sent to Peterhoil to assist the soldiers
in watching the palace there, the present
residence of the court. Photographs OF
all the railway officials have been lodged
in a government department so as to aid
in the detection of Nihilists disguised in
the railway costumes.
Strenuous efforts are being made to fud
links of evidence in order to give more
unity to the trials of numerous important
political prisoners which must be held
next autumn. The fortr-sses and prisons
are crowded. =
1t is observed in official circles that
Russia cannot possibly make such an ex-
hibition of herself before the world as to
try thousand or two political offenders
and as something must be done with all
the prisoners to make room for others
the only way to dispose of them quietly
and expeditrly is by the system OF
administrative deportation which General
Mellkoh, the late Minister OF the Interior,
sought to abolish.

o. .. COURT pROoEEDINes.
Opening OF the June Term OF the
Circuit COurt-'rbe ReybnId Cuse


Circuit Court-Ebe Reybn Case.
The United States Circuit Court for the
June term was convened Tuesday morning,
Judge Bradford presiding.
The greater part Of the morning session
was taken up in the delivery of the
opinion Of the Court in the case of
Anthony Reybold VS.. the New
York Baltimore Transportation
Company; Senator Bayard, Attorney
o-neral Gray and Alexander Evans, ESQ,
OF Elkton, for defendant, and George IL.
Bates and George c. Gordon, Esqs., for
plaintiff.
The case was brought TO recover dam
ages for an alleged breach of agreement
between the parties, which agreement
was intended to secure to each party the
undisturbed control (by the other) of
certain lines Of transportation. BY this
agreement, which went into effect in
1898, Reyb bold agreed not to run steamers
to Interfere with the business Of the de-
lendaLt between the cities OF New York
X Baltimore, while the New York and
Baltimore Company agreed in return not
TO run any steamers between the Sassa-
iras, ELK and Susquehanna rivers and
Philadelphia.
The case was argued last October, the
object being to make up certain issues to
go b-fore jury. The defendant put in
rs different pleas. The plaintiff deinurred
to Ia of these pleas, while the defendants
also demurred to two of the alleged
breaches.
The questions generally raised were
questions of pleading, but the delnurrers
tn EntUn Al A
raised the question OF the validity OF the
contract the defendants alleging that it
was Objectionable under the modern doc
trine OF ultra cires C'outside of the
powers" of the plaintiif).
The Court, in the opinion delivered
this morning, overruled both the de-
murrers of the defendant, and allowed all
those of the plaintiff except those in
answer to the 2lst and 22I pleas.
Upon the 18th and 10Th pleas, raising
the question of ultra rires, the Court
dwelt at considerable length, holding
that the charter of the N. Y. 4 b. Co.
imposed nc duty on defendant, and con-
tefred no privilege on the plaintiff to use
certain lines exclusively that there was
nothing in its charter TO prevent the com
pany from making such contract
that it was contract suitable and neces-
sary, in the sense Of material or ex pedient,
to the proper conduct of its business; that
its charter imposed no obligation to run
ON any route i'll particular; that such a
cont tract was not Objectionable under the
rule against contracts in restraint OF
trade, and that, if 1t was promotive of the
interests of the company to resign any
one route, contract for that purpose was
proper one to make.
The contract was rescinded in January,
1865.
The result Of the opinion will be to
create quite reconstruction oil the issues
and pleadings. The case cannot come
before jury until the next term of court
at least,

DOVER, June 2l.-The annual literary
exercises of the middle class of the Con-
terence Academy We're held in the town
hall last night. The first thing on the pro.
sramme was a piano solo rendered in a
dine manner by Miss Sallie Ridgley. At
the close she was applauded heartily ly
the audience. Miss Cora Price then fol-
lowed with an original essay entitled,
THE Rank is but the Guinea's Stamp"
This essay was we'll written and gave
evidence Of great labor in preparing it.
Miss Price was followed by w. S.
Thomas of Clayton, with an Grafton,
entitled Especial Training" Mr.. Thomas
took from the start decided anti-classic
siew. lie argued that the time for classi-
sal studies is past, and that every young
man just entering life should make up
his mind that it is impossible for him to
learn everything, as the range of human
knowledge has taken such a wide field oi
research, and that he should chose
special subject, and devote his time and
energies towards the accomplishment Of
his design. This Grafton was delivered
in highly interesting manner, and was
we'll received by the audience.
Miss Cora Tschudy then gave piano
solo entitled "Alice." She has the repu
tation Of being an excellent performer
she not only sustained her former reputa-
ton but added to it. The playing was
liked 10 well that several seconds elapsed
before the programme could go on.
Lee Cannon followed, with an GRAFTON
entitled civilian, Prince Of Orange"
This was pleasing and interesting
Grafton aud was rendered in distinct
voice. Miss Harris read an interesting
and instructive essay entitled Consider
the Lilies" This "musical" class sang
a selection taken from "0livette," which
was applanded greatly.
"Ains and How TO Attain Them, was
the title of Mr.. Vandyke's Grafton. 1t con-
tanned some wholesome advice for young
people in general. This was followed by
an Grafton entitled plymouth Rock by
A. w. Mowbray. His speech was com
posed largely of foolish attacks the
Roman Catholic Church. He thought hr
saw in the not far-distant future religious
despotism for this country, unless there is
something done to keep down the grow
ing strength of that Church.
The class again favored the audience
with music, this time temperance gle-.
This was rendered in mastery manner,
| anu " 40 iouuiy appiauhtus iirS houF "a
then read ar essay, entitled "After the
Battle" Owing to embarrassment, Sue
did not speak distinctly, go that the house
could hear her. She was followed by J.
X. Todd, who delivered an Grafton on
Memory" The Grafton contained some
very good points, but was not spoken
distinctly.
A piano performance by Miss Ilough,
Miss Tschudy and Mr.. Vrden was rem
Tered we'll and brought down the house
in applause. The defamation by MIR.
Mariner, entitled 1.-THE Prince Of Peace"
was spoken with great feeling, but not
loud enough.
The literary exercises being finished
the handsome boquets and presents
which had been sent on the stage for the
members of the class by their friends
we're presented to ths different members,
after which the exercises closed with a
chorus by the class.
