IMPORTANT LIFE INSURANCE
DECISION.

The United States Supreme Court has
just rendered An opinion of much i'm
portance to all persons interested in life
insurance.
In February, 1878, the Union Trust
Company of New York took out a policy
in the Connecticut Mutual Company. on
the life OF William Orion for the benefit
of his children. In two months after.
ward Mr.. Orion died. The insurance
company refused to pay the policy
on the ground that the condition Of
Mr.. Orton's health had been misrep.
resented in the application papers. Suit
was thereupon brought by the Trust
Company.
On the trial physicians who had at
tended the insured were called to the
witness stand by the defense. The Judge
refused to let them testify. This ruling
is sustained by the Supreme Court at
Washington. The Court cites the sec.
tion of the Code Of Civil Procedure in
New York, which declares that "a per-
son duly authorized to practice physic or
surgery shall not be allowed to disclose
any information which he acquired in at
tending a patient in a professional capa-
city," 1t was commended that statute
shuts out in actions on life policies the
most satisfactory evidence Of the exist
ence of disease and of the cause OF death.
The Court remarked that this was a on
sideration for the Legislature, not the
Judiciary. 1t held that as long as the
statute is in force, both the State courts
and Federal courts in New York are
bound to follow it.
Another point passed upon was this:
To the usual question in the application,
whether he ever had an affection of the
liver" the insured answered mo" On
the trial the Judge was asked to instruct
the jury that if it believed on the evil
dence that the insured ever had an afec-
ton Of the liver the policy was void and
the insurance company entitled to q
verdict. He refused, and this ruling is
also sustained by the Supreme Court.
The Court holds that an applicant for
life insurance cannot be required or ex-
pected to g recall with such distinctness
as to be able to answer categorically |
every instance during his past life, or
even during his manhood, of accidental
disorder or ailment affecting the liver
which lasted only for a brief period and
was unattended by substantial injury or
inconvenience or prolonged suffering.
Unless he had an affection of the liver
that amounted to disease-that is, of a
character SO well defined and marked as
TO materially derange for a time the
functions Of that organ-the answer that
he had never had the disease called affec-
tion of the liver was q fair and true one."
The result is that the insurance COM
pany must pay.

Horrible Ousrages and RObberfes'
WHEELING, W. Va, Dec. A.-The sec.
| ond horrible outrage and robbery by
hooded burglars in the past three days has
greatly excited the people Of this city.
| Sunday six masked men entered the home
| of Mrs. Workenour, in the east end, and,
after horribly beating the family, stole
| about SIS, 1000 in gold. Last night four
men, evidently Of the same gang, broke
into the house of Elijah Morling, a bache-
lor miser, and finding only 1882 on his
person, put him TO the most horrible tor
ture to force him 10 reveal the hiding
place Of his gold. He was tied to q bed
post, stripped and q redhot poker applied
to his back and thighs in 10 less than 20
places. Hot oil was also poured down his
back, aud his sufferings were terrible in
the extreme. He evidently had no money
concealed. In their anger at their failure
the burglars struck him 9 heavy blow on
the head and left him hanging ~insensible
in his ~fastenings. He was found six hours
later nearly frozen and half dead, and his
condition is dangerous. He is nearly 60
years of age. The robbers work with
seeming impunity, and all efforts to locate
or capture them seems useless. The
county constabulary Is powerless, and
dwellers in isolated houses are in constant
dread.
CHICAGO, Dec. 24.-A meeting was held
TO give expression 70 the sentiment of the
citizens on the subject Of M~ormonism.

Missouri tragedy, the Danites and Noun
tain Meadows massacre. The Rev. Mr..
McNeice, Of Utah, said the Mormons
claim the balance Of power in Idaho and
Arizona. and that in Utah the Gentiles
are practically disfranchised. A resolu-
ton was passed, calling on Congress 10
pass the Anti Mormon bill introduced by
Senator Cullom.
