U. $. SUPREME COURT.
Decision Rendered Affecting the Lia-
bilitv OF National Banks.

The supreme court today rendered a de-
cision affecting the liability of national banks.
The court holds where fraudulent certificates
of stock are issued bv any of the officers of
the bank without the knowledge or consent of
the directors or other officers of the bank the
bank itself cannot be held liable for such
fraudulent issue.
A decision was also rendered in the case of
the New England Mutual Life Insurance
Co., in error, vs.. Stephen f. Woodwork,
in error to the circuit court of
the United States for the southern district of
Illinois. The court holds: lst. That the
policy of life insurance Issued by a company
incorporated in one State payable to his
executors or administrators, is assets for the
purpose of founding administration upon his
estate in another State in which the company
at and since the time of his death does busi-
ness and as required by the statutes of the
State, hi. agent on which the process against
it may be served. End, That under section
Is, chapter 3, of the revised statutes of Ill
entitled to administrate on the estate of his
wife if she left the property in Illinois.
Letters Of administration, which state that
the intestate had at that the time of death
personal property in the State, are sufficient
evidence of authority of administration to sue
in that State in the absence of proof that
there was no such property. The judgment
of the circuit court is affirmed in the opinion
by Judge Blatchford.

MORE ABOUT DANvILLE.


In the Danville investigation today. J. II.
Gusight, a white democrat, denied that john.
son, charged by the previous witness With
shooting two colored men, had fired shot
during the riot Other witnesses said that
they saw pistols in the hands of the negroes.
and heard them say they meant TO fight though
he could give no names.
Chas. II. Conrad knew that there was no
premeditated effort to bring on the riot. There
was no prejudice against the low down
whites from the north, who got the negroes
in trouble, and then deserted them.
The negroes could have their right TO vote
if they voted with the white people. The
witness said: You will never see it as long
as you live, or as 1, either, that set of men
who own property and are trying to build up
the town and husband all their resources and
accumulate wealth that viii ever allow ne
groes to come in and control the town. You
may just set that down ~ . sure thing.

About twenty republican senators met in
caucus this afternoon to consider the condi-
ton of the bu siness before the Senate, and
dfcuss the order in which it shall be trans
acted. The announcement was made that

ported to the Senate to morrow, bearing as
an amendment the provision which has al
ready passed the senate as separate bill,
for the construction of seven new steel naval
vessels, and that it was desirable to call it
up for consideration next Wednesday or
Thursday. This led to discussion of the
prospect of reaching action on the education
al bill, and the subject consumed the re-
mainder of the session of the caucus. An
understanding was reached without vote
that the bill will be disposed of Wednesday
Its amendment was proposed, but the matter
was finally left to the judgment of the eau
Gus committee, who were instructed to take
the calander into consideration and report
upon an order of business to a former caucus.
