BAR MEETING.
Remedies Suggested for Re-
IieVing the Supreme Court.

The Memphis Bar held an adjourn
ed meeting at the courthouse this fore.
noon, ex-Judge R. j. Morgan pre-
siding.
Two reports, a majority and a mi
nority, were presented. The minority
report was adopted after being amend
ed so as to allow the Appellate Court
to pass upon the facts formally, and
reference to any other reform was in
definitely postponed.
The real trouble arises out of the
inability of the Supreme Court to try
all the cases that comes before it.
The docket has become overcrowded
with cases and now when a case goes
to the Supreme Court it is often five
years before it is reached. In former
years it was for this tribunal to trans
act all the business which came before
it, but now its jurisdiction is greatly
increased and it is found tobe in ade-
quate. A leading attorney stated this
morning hat the movement towards
reform was general one
among the bar of the entire United
States. The remedy proposed by the
report, which was adopted by the
Memphis bar to-day, is to establish
nine Appellate Courts instead of the
nine Circuit Courts, and that these
Courts shall be Courts Of last resort,
exceptin cases involving constitutional
questions, the construction of an act
Of Congress, the treaties of the United
States, or an amount greater than ten
thousand dollars.

UNwELCOAE GUSTS.
What TO DO With Our Poverty
Stricken Visitors.

A man, woman and two small chill
dren were found by the levee police
man yesterday evening sitting on a
pile of skids on the levee. From their
composed manner the policeman con-
cluded they had located there perma-
nently, and upon questioning the man
learned from him that he had decided
to camp there for the night. They
had been run out Of the bottoms by
the overflow, he said, and had nowhere
to go. They were taken to the station
house, and remained there at noon to-
day. The man seems to be utterly
Indifferent as to his future, and the
woman shares the feeling. The little
children were seemingly oblivious Of
their condition, and sang and played
about the prison with all the gushing
innocence of childhood.
A few days since a woman from the
Arkansaw bottoms, with a family Of
five little children, was found sitting
on a Main street curbstone, the chill
dren now and then playing in the
gutter, and occasionally making narrow
escapes from death under the wheels of
passing vehicles. The mother seemed
to be careless as to her surroundings
and when the policeman found her
was engaged in vigorously beating the
youngest, a little boy of twelve months.
The little thing yelled like s. steam
whistle and kicked his little red, bare
legs vigorously, while the tears stream
ed in torrents down his chubby cheeks,
leaving burrows Of dirt like corn rows
on his face.
These people, like dozens of others,
come here destitute, always on the way
to some distant relation, to whose
residence they expeu and often de-
mand, that the city furnish them
transportation.
The city has no fund on which its
officials can check for this purpose,
but it is hard to make them under
stand or believe this.
So many applicants Of this kind have
been made lately that it has become
a serious matter and the city officials
have so far puzzled their brains for a
remedy without having found one
that will answer.

NEW York, February 17.-Vice-
President Durf, of the Hannibal &

against the State of Missouri, contains
as much that is favorable to the com
pany as unfavorable, and leaves the
amount In controversy between the
state and the company a comparative
~ small one. He says the situation
Is as follows: 1.-THE State has issued
100000 of six per cent bonds
in aid of the road. The
road has paid the State S3,0O0.-
OOO: The road claims that the use
OF the 100000 by the State offsets
the payment of interest on the State
bonds. The State claims it offsets
only to the extent of the interest
actually earned on the $4,000, 600. The
question then becomes merely n of
interest. The State has a large amount
OF alx per cent fvestwenty bonds out.

The Missouri Legislature passed a law

The 100000 can thus be used, or

short time, in extinguishing the six
