The Sumter Republican spea KS
the following good word in behalf
OF our Major Wechsler:
Owe see from the Dawson Jour
nal that Major Wechsler has open
ed a large clothing house at Daw-
son. He was at one time a citi-
zen Of this place and engaged in
the same line of business. He
was strickly straight in all his
dealings, and was liked by all"
We learn through Mr.. Fetch
Wright, who has just returned
from a trip into South Carolina,
that the crops in that state are
even worse than they are in Geor-
gia. He states that the corn crop
is failure as well as the cotton
crop, and that corn is now selling
over there at 95 cents per bushel.
Instead OF murmuring and COM
planning our people should con-
gratulate themselves that their
surroundings are no worse.
We are glad to be able to state
that Mr. Jesse d. Weston, whose
Injuries in difficulty with a ne
gro on Saturday afternoon last
we're reported in these columns on
Sunday morning, rested quietly
throughout yesterday. He is very
cheerful, and, although MS wound
/ is n serious one, DIR. Hilsman
thinks the indications for his re-
coyery very favorable. Jesse has
a host Of friends who sympathlze
with him in his misfortune, and
many q fervent prayer has al
ready been offered for his early
and permanent recoyery.-A lbany

INJUNCTION CONTINUED.

The Injunction Restraining the ConsoH-
dation of the Mutual and Western
Union Telegraph Companies Continued.
New YORK, March 27.-The superior
court, this morning, Judge Freeman, rem
dered an elaborate opinion in the suit of
JOSIAH G. Reiff against the Western Union
and Mutual Union Telegraph companies
and others in which he grants the motion
to continue the temporary injunction.
The suit was brought to restrain the con-
solidation between the Mutual and Western
Union companies, in which the latter was
to lease the lines of the former company.
Judge Freeman lays down certain condi-
tons to be observed, however. 1t is
argued, he says, that inasmuch as the pur-
pose of lease is to create and maintain
monopoly of telegraphic business it is con-
tainly to public policy. If this question
we're to be determined on general princi-
pies of philosophy or rules of common
law, there would be great force in the ar
gument, but it is for the law making power
of the state to define what public policy on
given point shall be. / must hold that
under the act of 1870, the Western Union
possesses power to lease the lines in ques-
ton. The next question, then, is whether
the lease as made calls for the interposi-
ton of the court. Plaintiff insists that the
lease is void under TIE constitution and
laws of Pennsylvania and two other states.
Only the constitution and laws of Pennsyl-
vania were laid before me. and from them
it does appear that the consolidation
of telegraph companies is not lawful in that
state, but the constitution and statutes of
that state can have 40 extra-territorial
effect, and hence it is q grave question
whether they can be enforced against COM
panies organized under and in pursuance
of the laws of any other state, and having
power 20 consolidate at home, but it re-
mains to be seen whether there was any
thing in the manner in which the circum-
stances under which the lease was entered
into, which gave the plaintiff standing in

FOREIGN NOTES.
GREAT BRITAIN.

LONDON, March 27.-Thos. Power O'Con-
nor, member Of parliament for Galway, de-
livered an address at Leeds last night. He
had previously been challenged by the
Leeds Mercury to say whether he had re-
ceived any funds of the land league, and
| whether he was willing to have the league
accounts audited. O'Connor, however,
failed to notice the questions in his
speech.
LONDON, March 27.-The race for the

There were seventeen starters. Betting last

BELFAST, March 27.-The jury have rem
dered verdict of guilty IN the case of SIX
members of the Armagh Assassination So
ciety, who were placed on trial here YES
terday. The counsel for the defense main
ly tried to impesch the evidence given by
an informer named Duffy. He argued
that the crown doubted its own case be-
cause it had failed to secure the indict-
ment of men who, according to the evil
dence offered by the crown, were strongly
implicated in the crimes charged against
the prisoners. The counsel for the crown,
in reply, strongly asserted the completely
of the land league in the projected murder
of landlord Brooke, through Boyle, who
was then treasurer of the local league.

court. Plaintiff complains that the West
ern Union company illegally consolidated
with the Atlantic and Pacific Tele-
graph company and the American
Union Telegraph company, and
in consequence thereof the capital
stock Of the Western Union was Illegally
increased from about $4O,OOO,OOO to about
SoO,OO0,000, and that such consolidation
and increase of stock had been adjudged
illegal. All these points, Judge Freeman
says, are negatived by affidavits on the
part of the defendant, and he further
states that it is not true that the courts
have denied the power of the Western In
ION to consolidate with the companies re-
terred to or to increase its stock. On the
point raised by the plaintiff that the
Western Union failed to comply with the
act Of 1870, in not calling a general meet
ing of its stockholders and obtaining
the consent Of three ffths of
them to the proposed consolidation
with the Mutual Union at such meeting,
Judge Freeman decides that such failure
was defect in the proceedings, although
the only one, and that plaintiff is entitled
to have the Injunction continued during
the pending of the action, but that de-
PENDANT should have power to convene a
general meeting of its stockholders and
obtain the consent of three-ffths of them
to the consolidation. and that,6efendant on
showing proof of having done this may
appear for dissolution of the Injunction.

THE JEANETTE SURVIVORS.

The Four Survivors of the Crew Land at
New YOrkin Good Health, and Soon to
Proceed to Washington to Testify.
New YORK. March 27.-Ensign II. j.
Hunt, of the Rogers, and Seamen J. H.
Bartlett, 81. W. Leach, f. E. Manseu and
John Louterbach, members of the crew of
the Jeanette, arrived to-day on board the
Westphalia.
The party left Bolun at the mouth of the
Lena the 25th of October last. The first
stage of their journey was to verkhoiausk,
and occupied ten days. 1t took ten days
more to reach Yakoutsk, nine
days to reach Viteen and
two days to reach Kirinsk. There, one of
the party, Aniguin, an Indian hunter, who
was suffering from smallpox, became SO
i'll it was impossible for him to proceed
further, and Ensign Hunt sent forward to
IrkoUtsk, distance of four days, Seamen
Leach and Lcuterbach, with Thornum, an
interpreter, remaining at Kirinsk himself,
with Aniguin and others of the party, until
the Indian finally died.
January 8, the party was again reunited
at Kirinsk, and proceeded together to r.
koutsk, distance of four days. Thence
they continued their journey to Orenburg,
in the borders of Russia, a distance of
twentyfour days. All this part of their
long journey had been made on sleds over
the snowy steepes of Siberia, travelling
night and day.
At Orenburg they exchanged their sleds
for steam cars, and travelled by railroad to
st. Petersburg, where they remained for
one week, and then proceeded direct to
Hamburg. where on the 18th inst. they
went on board the Westphalia.
On the arrival of the steamer at the pier
Ensign Hunt and the seamen of the
Jeanette were welcomed by Lieut.. Mel
vile and Engineer Jsuques, who had come
over from the Brooklyn navy yard in tug.
They spent some time together in one of
the cabins of the vessel, and then accom-
panied the lieutenant and engineer in the
tug to the navy yard.
The party will probably remain here
until Thursday and then go to Washing
ton, where the four surviving seamen will
testify before the Jeanette inquiry com
mittee. They say they do not yet know
what testimony has been given
by other witnesses, nor what they can add
to what has already been told, as they
know nothing beyond what is also known
to those who have been already examined.
Ensign Hunt and the members of his
party are in excellent health, and the sea-
men show no trace of the trials they have
endured. They are naturally much pleased
at their return to this country, and look
forward with eagerness to the pleasure of
again meeting friends from whom they
have been so long separated. Arriving at
the navy yard the party called upon Com
modore Upshur, and at his invitation
lunched with him at his residence. The
party all look as if they enjoyed the best
of health,

Heavy Decline in Whisky.

CINCINNATI, March 27.-Whisky has de-
clined two cents. By order of the manager
of the whisky pool the action was accom-
panied by rumor of dissolution of the
pool, Ibut President Mill says there is no
cause for trouble; that the pool is strong
as ever and that the disastrous features
which have occurred of late, together with
the generalization in Kentucky, made its
existence more important than ever. 1t is
the only safety of business so long as the
cattle are in the stable. He attributes the
decline to fall in corn and he has thought
$1.14 too high for some time. The pool
only extends to the price of high wines

searched his clothing and relieved him of
the articles mentioned above.
Upon Lynch's description of the men
who held him up Swetz was arrested, and
being brought into his presence, identi-
fed him as the man who searched his
clothing. At the trial yesterday he told his
story in straightforward manner, plausi-
bly, accounting for having the money
claimed to be in his possession, accounting
for his movements up to the time of the
alleged robbery and positively identifying
Swetz. Opposed to this Mr. Swetz pro-
duced two respectable witnesses who swore
as positively as did Mr.. Lynch that Swetz
was In Minneapolis at the time of the al
legged robbery, infinitely detailing his
! movements during the evening in ques-
ton for some time both before and after
the hour of the alleged robbery, in which
testimony County Attorney Egan was un-
able to bring out any contradiction. In
view of the radical contradictions in the
testimony the further hearing was post
poned to Friday, the 30th.

Shot Him In the Leg

The Polanders are celebrated people for
getting OFF among themselves and indulg-
ing in little free shooting. Last Monday
night party of them got together down in
the hollow under the Seventh street bridge
and were having pretty lively time, when
one OF the Poianders took offense atsome-
thing one of the women said, and was about
to execute vengeance upon her by shooting
her. Parties interferred, and the shot was
turned from the direction it was intended
to go IN, and instead of hitting the woman
struck man about sixty years of age in
the leg. The wound is not dangerous
one, yet it is sufficient for Mr.. Peter Meier
who received the shot in the leg. The
name of the man who did the shooting is
Travitzki.

Mr.. A. E. Johnson, the emigrant agent
of the st. Paul & Manitoba road, has lust
returned from trip into the Red river
valley. On Saturday he saw six car loads
of horses unloaded at Warren. These
horses were shipped to farmers to aid
them in putting in their spring crops.
From what he could learn, during the next
few weeks 500 head of horses and mules
will arrive at Warren for the farmers in
that neighborhood. This will give some
indication of the increase of the crops.

are expecting to begin seeding from the
10th to the 18th of April. At Crookston
MIR. johnson met Mr.. Bernard Sampson,
president of the Crookston Improvement
company. He learned from him
that his company had clos

ty of $50 barrels per day, to cost $4,000;
also with parties from Beloit, Wis, for

also for foundry and machine shops to
cost $4,000. These are to be completed
this season, and located on the Simp-

the workmen. From this Mr.. johnson
thinks that business in that vicinity will
be good for the present season.
