POLITICAL PROSECUTIONS IN
COLUMBIA.

The United States Court conven-
ed in Columbia on Monday morn
ing, November the Goth, with
Judge Bryan, presiding. At this
term of the court the political tri-
ais will take place. District At
torney Melton made out list of
the cases to be heard, and handed
it over to the opposing counsel for
the defence. Only those that were
on the docket when the court met
last will be heard. Mr.. Emory
Speer, the United States District
Attorney for the State of Ca, will
assist Mr.. Melton in the prosecu-
ton, while j. p. X. Bryan, of
Charleston, and other shining
lights in the legal fraternity
from the same named place and
Columbia, will, with combined ef-
forts, assume the defence of those
indicted. The sum of ten thousand
dollars has been asked for by the
counsel of the accused for the pur-
pose of defending them. The ac-
ton taken with reference to these
cases will be watched with much
interest, and as yet it would be
hard to state what will probably
be the result. 1t seems that no
stone will be left unturned to Sc
cure conviction on the one hand
and to establish innocence on the
other. The accused should be
given fair trial. There is no
doubt but what their counsel will
make desperate efforts to acquit
them. On the proceedings of the
court in this particular, we will
from time to time enlightcn our
readers.

FOREIGN NOTES..
GREAT BRITAIN.

DUBLIN, Jan. ia number of arrests;
last evening and this morning were made
under the crimes act. Some of those ar
rested had arms in their possession. The
arrests were effected in various parts of the,
city. At o'clock this morning prisoners
were still being brought in, principally of
the artisan class. 1t is positively stated
that one of the prisoners is member of
the municipality who was arrested at mid
night in his own residence on the south
side of the city, and conveyed to the Col
lege street station under a strong escort.
The prisoners will be privately examined
to-day before divis ional magistrate, and
poss IDLY afterwards arranged IN the police
court. The police are reticent reg arding
the causes of the arrests. This arrests
number fifteen. The prisoners will be
charged with conspiracy to murder.
The arrests here last night and this morn
ing were in consequence of secret informa-
ton received last week that number of
persons belonging to a secret society had
held special meeting in Dublin and re-
solved TO assassinate certain of the more
active members of the Dublin police force.
Two conspirators turned informers. The
member of the municipality arrested is
Carey, well-known and prominent ma
tionalist. He had been previously arrested
under Forster's coercion act. It is not
believed he is connected with the assassin
alton party. The magistrates refused bail.
Carey said conspiracy was on the bench,
and threatened an action for false impris-
onment.

Two Early Morning Blazes.

An alarm of fire was turned IN from
box No. 124 in the Sixth ward at 4 O'Clock
yesterday morning. 1t was occasioned b y
the discovery of flames in the building
used as a wagon shop and occupied by
Joseph Mines, and it was situated on the
corner of Isabella and Dakota streets.
The department made the best time posi-
BILE over the bridge and succeeded in pre-
venting the flames communicating to a
blacksmith shop and dwelling across the
way. These were saved by the hook and
ladder company. The wagon shop was
destroyed. The loss is $500 on the con-
tents and about $500 on the building. No
insurance.
Another alarm was turned in at o'clock
a. m. from box No. 36, caused by Chin
ney blaze in Damkroger's building on East
Seventh street. The fire boys were on deck
and the blaze was squelched without ma
teri al damage.

of hearing less than total deafness in one

portion of full pension.
Mr.. Bragg opposed the bill. The evil of
pensions was that congress, under the
guise of doing justice to
a few, did the rankest, foulest in
justice to $4,000 persons. Before
congress passed these special pension laws
it should appoint committee to grade
the pension list SO that justice be done all
alike.

CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-Judge Rogers deliv-
cred this morning his long deferred decis-
ion in the cases of the five gamblers ar
rested by the police in Capt. Buckley's raid
of Nov. %. He said the decision was de-
cision of the case of William Copely of 176
and 178 Clark street only, but that it would
apply to the others also. He said there
were four points. in the defense; first, that
he had no right to sit as an examining
and committing magistrates; secondly, the
person arrested must be discharged.
because there was no charge preferred
against him and no punishment provided
by statute for being found in possession of
gaming implements; thirdly, that the
warrants could not be served or executed
by police officer, who ia neither sheriff
nor constable; and fourthly, that the pro-
visions of the statute are vague, indefinite,
incomplete for the purposes sought and
unconstitutional and void. He had been
unable to find any case decided by any SUI
preme court of any state sustaining the /
validity of such laws, while in several
states they have been declared unconstitu- |
tional and void The warrant in this case !

A LEARNED Chicago judge finds that the
Laws intended to check gambling and to
punish gamblers, in the state of Illinois,
are unconstitutional. The wisdom of
legislatures is past finding oRt, while the
capacity of courts to interpret alleged
laws is still more wonderful. The people
are fast learning, not to expect from legis-
lative bodies, and scarcely from judicial
arenas that which partakes of high re-
gard for the welfare and moral protection
of the community.
