The sonncnscl,nIdl Cnsc

The case of Sounonschmidt against Sonnen-
schmidt, which has been before the courts In
various ways since 1877, came up again in the
Court n General Term yesterday. In 1877 the de-
PENDANT, Catharinc w. Sonnenschmidt. obtained n
decree Of divorce and alimony at 500 per month
aud $50 counsel fees. supersedeas bond was
fled and in the Court in General Term the decree
modified, reducing the alimony to $50 per month.
sonncnschmidt falling to pay, suit was entered
on tho bond and judgment for s9lS.50 was OBJ
tanned in December, 1880. The case then went up
~ the General Term, the appellant claiming that
the appeal had been prosecuted with effect, mas
much as the alimony had been reduced, and con :
sequently the proceeding against the bond was
void. While the second suit was pending Mrs.
SonnensChmidt died and her husband became
the adm illustrator and, according TO the claim of
his counsel, he is now both plaintiff and defend
ant. The suit was however, brought in the name
of the United States and still lives the chief in
tercst in 1t now being the settlement of the count
sci fees. Messrs. TOttcn and Browning appeared
for the plaintiff, the United States, and Mr.. W. A..
Meloy for defendant.

sumed consideration of the district ap-
preparation bill.

the amount of all the claims of the
states of Texas, Oregon and Nevada,
and the territories of Washington and
Idaho for money expended and the in
debtedness assumed by said states and

der. Upon the bill being reported from
the committee of the whole, the COM

tary committee a joint resolution ap-
propriating $4,000, or so much Thereof

people made destitute by the Mississippi

said the planters there were paying field
hands in expectation Of being emun-
Grated by the coming crop. but that the

tions and made necessary this addition

passed. Adjourned.
