An Interestlnu legal ouestlon.

WHEELING, W. Va, June 30.-An import
ant decision was rendered in the supreme
court of this state to-day involving ques-
tion of the states rights The case grew out
of the death of John White, who was killed
on the Chesapeake and Ohio railway in 1881,
and whose administrator sued the company
for $4,000 damages In the circuit court of
Greenbrier county. In the succeeding term
of the court counsel for the Chesapeake and
Ohio made a motion to transfer the case to
the United States district court.
The motion was resisted by the plaintiff,
and the court decided the case not removable
on the ground that the motion should have
been made the term before. At tho follow
ing term it was stated that the case had
been tried in the United States court, aud
could not be heard in the Greenbrier county
court. Judge Holt decided that the case
could not be heard. A short time afterward
application was made to the supreme court for
a mandamus compelling the circuit judge
to hear the case. Meantime Judge Jackson,
of the United States court, issued an order re.
strainng the administrator from prosecuting
his claim in the supreme court of this state.
Shortly after trial was held in the United
States court, and anon-suit was entered. The
opinion of the state supreme court is that the
case was not reasonable one, and q peremp-
tory mandamus has been issued compelling
the circuit judge TO proceed with the tria! of
the case
