SOtpldOs Case.

The case of A. G. Soteldo, charged
with the murder Of his broth n, aud
with assaultiug with intent to kill
Clarence M. Barton, came up before
Judge Wylie, in the Criminal Court at
Washington yesterday, Counsel for
the prisoner moved to quash tho indict-
ment on the ground that "it was found
in violation Of law of Maryland OF
172l which he claimed is still in force
in the District of Columbia, This law
provides that an indictment shall be
sent to the Grand Jury by an express
order of the Court; that the prisoner
shall be bound over to urh Court, and
that the Grand Jury shall find an in
dictment of their own knowledge" The
Judge said he would take the IN utter
under advisement and give his decision
this morning 1t is claimed that, should
the motion to quash be granted, not
only will another indictment be neces-
sary in the 5oteldO case, but in all the
pending murder cases now awaiting
trial, as well as in the Star Route cases.

Short Measure and Light WeiSht.

Short Measure and Light "eiSn.'
The Sunday Star could have struck
on no more needed reform than that OF
the adjustment of weights and measures
The REPUBLICAN took up the ngh'
some eighteen months ago, single hanu'
ed and succeeded in soaring some dis
honest dealers into purchasing new
Quart measures, and into plugging up
some holes in the under side OF their
we;phts. 1t succeeded also in estao
fishing the fact that there was really
an officer called Sealer of Weights and
Measures, who lived in Middletown,
whose name was Squire Massey, and
whose chief duty appeard to be to draw
his salary of SIS year. Nobody can
expect Squire Nasey or any other per-
son to inspect and correct all the
weights and measures in New Castle
County for SIS, and we have no doubt
he renders sufficient services TO earn
his pay, but that don't stop the cheat
ing by wholesale that is carried on by
false measures and false weights. The
Star is right.
An inspector of weights and measures
for Wilmington alone is imperatlVely
needed, and that Legislator who vii.
move in the matter and have law
passed providing one with sufficient
salary to make the office effective, will
be entitled to The highest praise a swln-
died and outraged community can be-
stow upon him. At present there is no
regard paid to having honest measures
and weights.
Any kind of round box is convert
ed into half and quarter peck measure
and liquid ~ easures are used for dry
with no one to interfere IN
behalf of outraged decency and honesty.
There are honest men engaged in huck'
STEERING but they have to contend with a
great deal of odds and many of them
are driven from the business because
they cannot compete with those who
use short measures and light weights
We are glad the Star has taken this
up and We hope it will not
cease its warfare upon dishonest deal
ers until they are driven from the mar
ket and law is enacted to protect
honest dealers. The REPUBLICAN will
back it up.

LEADERS OF STYLES

The arrival of Spring is heralded as
the commencement Of spring trade. But
people do not order their clothing by
the calendar, and you are not likely to
lay aside your heavy garments at the
summons of the expectant clothier.
We shall keep our heavy clothing &C.
cessible and at prices that will induce
you to buy even if you have to protect
it from the moth during the summer,
while our spring goods are here and
ready for the customer, and If our ad'
vice is worth anything you will change
gradually, beginning with spring
oyercoat. The advantage of dealing
with us is the ability to always find
goods of all weight and kinds We
want everybody to know we are better
prepared to supply their wants this sea
son than ever before. We will exhibit
some of the advanced styles for spring
in our windows this week. These goods
manufactured expressly for us, and not
TO be duplicated elsewhere, are now in

A Valuable Bull.

We quote the following from the
Dover Sentinel, which will be of inter
est to all persons engaged in raising
cattle.
Mr.. HOWARD I. WILSON, of Leba
non, has refused 81, 900 for his three
year-old Jersey bull, CDR. Jump" He
is of the Hierot strain of cattle, which
is considered one of the very best butter
strains. Mr.. Bancroft sold bull cali
one week old from this bull, out of his
imported COW, for S25. to Mr.. Brown
before he was aware of the great value
of the strain. Mr.. Brown has since re-
fused 5000 for his bargain. although the
calf is but a few weeks old. Mr.. Will.
son, fortunately, found out the great
value of the animal in his possess ion in
time to realize something OF his worth.
To the butter farmers of his section this
animal will prove great bonanza, as
those of his progeny that have come in.
to profit have shown an increase of
more than one-third of former yields.

Old Swedes' Church celebrated their
2S4th anniversary yesterday. The
weather was fine and the church was
crowded. Services commenced at 10. 30

listened to with considerable interest.
His discourse was based on the text:
''The Lord hath done great things for
us whereof we are glad,' as found in
the Sd verse of the 126th Psalm. This
passage was parallel to the first ser.
mon ever preached in the church. The
speaker gave the brief account of the
history of the church, from the time of
its erection until the present time. The
alterations which have been made in
the church in the intervening period
were also described and the church at
the present time il in prosperout con.
dition. At the session of the Sabbath
school in the afternoon, an address was
delivered by the rector, reports made
by the officers and offerings rendered
by the different classes. The Secretary 3 |
report showed an increase of forty three
in the mem bership of the school since
the last report The average attendance
for the year was 1870, total membership
223 The contributions for the year
amounted to $123 e. In the evening
the usual services, including evening
prayers, were said and an interesting
sermon preached.

was in the White House the othel
evening, after II o'clock, when one o.
our Illinois members came by appoint
ment, accompanied by man from the
West who wanted place, and who had
but recently arrived in Washington
The man stated the nature of his bus
mess and then asked:
NOW, shall l get up some papers
with recommendation and signatures
and bring them to the Secretary
Or what had better do about it?"
"That," returned the President,
"Eust be as you think best. 1t might
be we'll, If you want to 90 it, and
shall see the papers when l come to the

The man suggested that, having seen
him and talked the matter over, he
would look upon the submission of
papers as merely perfuuctory matter
to put him upon an apparent footing
with other applicants.
"But l have not promised you the
place, said the President, "and l do not
promise it now. There are several ap-
plicants for it, and when l reach the
matter will consider your claim with
the others. 1 may appoint you, but l
don't know that l will. By that time

to appoint, and if I have l shall app oint
him, l would not have you carry away
an impression that your chance is bet.
ter than any body's else, or that have
promised you anything"
And this was said with so candid and
so kindly an air that the man went
away feeling that at least he had been
openly dealt with and treated like
gentleman.
