To be Tried in the District Courts

CLINTON, a., August John Phcfer
was convicted before a Justice of the
Peace in Muscatine County Of the Illegal
sale Of liquor, and sentenced to paya fine
of SIS and costs, and to stand committed
until the fine was paid. The prisoner
was yesterday released by Judge Hayes,
who decides that the Justice had no ju-
risdIcton that, as the law provides pen
alties for the sale OF liquor beyond the
statutary limit of 500 fine and thirty
days Imprisonment Mt imposed by Justices,
such officers can only act as committing
Magistrates. This decision, in effect,
takes all the liquor cases to the District
Courts of the State for trial on inlet
ment by Grand Jurles.

England.

LONDON, August THE Scotland
Yard authorities profess to have trust
worthy Intelligence from America to the
cffec: that priest, who is an emissary OF
the Vigilance Committee of the dyna'
miteTs has left America for England. They
have been informed that the priest is
bald, has fresh appearance, carries
cane, wears an unclerical suit OF clothes
and could easily pass as an ordinary gem
t.eman of means on tour for his health.
The officials claim that the reverend gen.
t,eman is bearer of
IMPORTANT LETTERS
to the dynamlters in Britain and that he
is well supplied with money.
When asked for the name of the
steamer in which the alleged vigilant had
embarked they became very rcticent, but
from instructions telegraphed to the po-
lice at various ports of Great Britain to
look out for the clerical gentleman it is
evident their informant failed to add this
important link to his other disclosures.

Biographical Sketches Of Two Men

Demise.

CHICAGO, May 14-Cyrus q. Mccormick,
whose name fills an important page in the
history of Chicago, of the west, of America,
is no more. The venerable man expired at
his residence, 1856 Rush street, in his 18th
year. His end was peaceful Mr. McCor-
mick has been an invalid for fully year
past, being unable to move about
as was his wont, and for the most
part confined to his room. Nevertheless, his
robust and active intellect was unimpaired
to the very close. Though hindered by mere
physical infirmities that the gathered load Of
toiling years had brought upon him from
moving out of his room, lie continued to per-
sonally supervise the details of his vast ill.,
terests, and remained to the last the verita-
bic conductor of tde business of which he was
the originator. The cause of his death was
purely and simply old age.
lCyrus Hail Mccormack was born in Rock
bridge county, Virginia, Feb 10, 1909, Of
Scotch-Irish parents He Inherited a genius
for inventing FROM his father, who was the
inventor of several agricultural machines,
among them a reaper, and showed his bent
of mind at Il when he constructed a "cradieH
which he used in the harvest field. The
reaper invented by the elder Mccormick
proved TO be the germ of the one which after
ward made the sons name famous and which
he completed in 1881, when but 81 years old,
but of which ouly few vera manu-
featured till 1915 His first patent
was granted III 1884, and from improvements
he obtained further patents ia ls47 and 1858
In 1859 Hon Reverdy johnson said that the
Mccormick reaper haa contributed an annual
income TO The whole country of at lsasi
SIS, goo, 900, which must Increase through al
time. CoagressIefused to extend his patents
before the manufacture of the reaper got
under full Roadway, but Mr.. McCornick

THE SALTWATER TROUBLES.
Nothing New In the Northwestern
Car Company Failure.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 1.-THE Journals
Saltwater special says that J. C. O'Gorman,
who was appointed by the court receiver for
the Seymour-Sabin company, which is
complicated with the Northwestern Car
company, gave bond in the sum OF
$500. The smallness of the bond is ac-
cepted as an indication that the serious COM
plications reported, are unfounded. S. r.
Stimson, manager Of the car company, has
been appointed receiver of the Union Trans
fer company, but is still sick in st. Paul, and
has not yet qualified.
J. II. Townsend & Co., are not running on
account of empty bins. They will resume
and run right along unless pressed by cred
itors on account of the car company, III
which event a receiver will be applied for
No account of the assets and liabilities can
be secured in any of the cases yet
Another Saltwater special says the flour
ing mills of Townshend & Co. have not yet
applied for receiver, but it is thought likely
that they will do SO as soon as Senator Sabin
reaches here. All their mills are closed
down.
There is no truth in the reports that the
Northwestern Car company is heavily in
debted to Senator Sabin, or that officials
have overdrawn their salaries.
The liabilities of the Railway Transfer
company are $780, 900. What the assets will
be it is impossible to tell until the investiga-
| ton is completed

there would be no objection to il The bill
provides that, in recognition of distinguished
services rendered TO the United States, U. S.
Grant, late general of the army, shall be
placed on the retired list, with the rank and
full pay Of general of the army.
In the house, Hewitt, of New York, pre-.
sented a petition from the chamber of COM
MERGE of New York in favor of the improve
lnent of the entrance to New York harbor;
referred to the committee on rivers and har-
bors The day having been designated for
the consideration of bills reported from the
committee on territories, the house. on motion
of Eyins, of South Carolina, went into COM
mttee Of the whole on the bill to establish
civil government in Alaska 1t
provides for the appointment Of
a governor, establishes district
court to sit at Sitka, which is designated as
the temporary capital, and also at Wrangell
also provides for the appointment of four
commissioners with the Jurisdiction and
powers of commissioners OF United States
circuit courts, who are to reside, one at
Sitka, one at Wrangell, one at Ounalaska,
and one at juneau City, The general laws
Of Oregon are made operative in Alaska.
The bill also appropriates S25, 900 for educa-
tional purposes, to DO expended under the
direction of the secretary of the interior.
After short discussion in committee of
the whole of the bill, the committee rose and
the bill passed without amendment AS It
is a senate bin, it now requires but the ap-
proval Of the president to become law.
1t is generally believed that tho bill to
place Gen. Grant on the retired list, which
passed the senate unanimously, will pass the
house with little opposition. 1t will give
him an increase Of about $4,000 per year,
which, with the SIS, 900 from the Grant fund,
will make him quite comfortable

SOME REPUBLICAN OPINIONS.

According to that distinguished repub-
lican authority, the New York Tribune,
Hon George F. Edmunds is unfit to be
president.
According to that other distinguished
republican authority. the New York even
ing Post, on. James is unfit to be presi-
dent.
According to that equally distinguished
republican authority, the Chicago Inter
Ocean, Hon. J. Alexander Logan is unfit
to be president.
According to that still more distinguish
ed republican authority, the New York
Times, Hon Chester A. Arthur is unfit
to be president.
No doubt these four distinguished rep

the prescribed list embraces every person
actively supported for the republican
