A Civil RIGHTS Test Case.

THE COLOR LINE ON VIRGINIA FERRYBOATS
Rev. Harvey johnson, of the colored Union
Baptist church, and Rev. P. II. A. Braxton, of
the colored Calvary church, both of Baltimore,
have, through John H. Keene, jr., counsel, COM
plcted their declarations in suits against the
officers ana crew of the ferryboat plying
between Norfolk and Portsmouth, Va, undrr
the civil rights act, which declarations are
intended to avoid any of the grounds upon
which the Supreme Court of the United
States has rendered decisions adverse to the
colored litigants. The suit will be brought
in the fourth circuit OF the eastern district
of Virginia. The suit will include the muni.
cipaifties of Portsmouth and Norfolk as
parties to the violation of the civil rights
law as joint owners OF the ferryboat. The
facts alleged are that the complainants were in
attendance upon convention held in Norfolk
the 18th OF May, 1885. Phey secured first class
passage on the ferryboat, and were roughly or.
dered to cOnfine themselves to that portion of
the boat separated for blacks. BraxtOn being
ignorant of such rules, refused to comply with
the order, when he was fOrcibly seized, though
offering no resistance, and elected from the part
OF the boat occupied by white passengers. Mr.
johnson complied with the order, and for the
remainder Of the journey stood among horses
and freight. On landing at Portsmouth both
were arrested and held to bail for viola sing
the rules of the boat, but upon trial were &C.
quilted.
The declaration contains two COUNTS First
false arrest and imprisonment; and second, is
presented, for the first time, the novel law
count of color against IL citizen OF the United
STATES OF African descent. This, it is claimed
involves a question of intrinsic importance as
to civil rights.

Through the efforts of Representative

ciatsd by the people OF this county.
Right here we wish to state that Mr..

constituents. The bill leaves the
question of issuing bonds to a vote of
the people aud therefore should give

CATTLE WINTERING WELL.
Favorable Reports From Montana
Slight Fears of all Ice Crust.
Ispecial Telegram % the Clone

MILES City, Mont, Jan. 29.-Much 10 the
surprise Of q greater portion of those who
are interested in stock raising, stock of all
kinds has thus far done reasonably well, not
withstanding the unusual severity of the
winter in this territory. The absence of
heavy SHOWS in the eastern portion of the
territory, where can be found most Of the
cattle Of Montana, probably accounts for
their satisfactory situation. Leading cattle
men Of this district admit that the deaths
among cattle on the range thus far have not
been over 5 per cent, and they look upon
that as an outside figure. They admit also
that reports that come TO them from their
herlers regarding the condition of stock ut
present and their own observations in riding
over the range have been remarkably favor
able. It is a noticeable fact that most OF the
losses have been in sections that are well
known to be overcrowdeG and where there Is
a lack OF feed, either from grass being burned
or eaten or. This is gentle reminder 10
cattle IL en- TO not oyerstock their ranges, and,
as general rule, they are not averse to hav-
ing it understood that they dou't care to see
n EItak VI Ndlt4t NOulG upon LueIQ next
summer to fill up the range and
make the chances Of losses greater
In case another winter like the present
should have to be met. The thermometer
has ranged sometimes during the past month
as low as 80 degrees below zero. These ex-
tremes have come at night but your CORES
pOndent has not noticed It lower than 40
below during the day, and, unless there is an
IN nprecedented continuance Of the extreme
cold and snow during the balance OF this
winter, stock win come cut next
spring with very little further
loss. There is one other
danger. however, and that is the possibility OF
au Ice crust forming In the snow, through
which stock NAV find 1t difficult to work in
order to get at the grass. This trouble is
more feared by stock growers than anything
else, but even IL It should come the proba-
biIity is that the chinook winds. which are
likely to be frequent, will soon melt the crust
again and DO away with trouble from that
direction

Especial Telegram TO the GlCbe.l
New YORK, Jan. 29.-The market opened
irregularly to-day. The Changers and West
ern Union were 55@4 lower, while Union
Pacific and one or two others were g higher,
but the interest of the day centered in the
Lackawanna squeeze. The attempted set
back Of yesterday did not dishearten the bull
pools at all, and this morning they went to
work with renewed energy at the tap of the
bell. There we're hardly any dealings in
other stocks, but Lackawanna was marked
up rapidly during the day to s45s. In the
present condition of the market there
is little money to be made
on either side, except by manipulation,
and, as the coal stock is the easiest to corner
and manage Of any on the list.the bulls have
concentrated all their energies upon it in tie
hope Of forcing the large short interest to
cover, and it looked to-day as though they
would succeed in their effort. OF course, the
merit of the stock is no greater now than it
has been all along, although the consumption
OF coal has been augmented by the cold
weather, but merit or demerit has nothing to
do with the operations Of stock manipulators.
Mr.. Huntington said the weakness in Cen
trail Pacific and Union Pacific yesterday was
due to news from Washington that there were
fears that congress would take no
action on pending bills adjusting the
subsidy debt. Deacon White says be is
not in any bull pools at present, although he
bought a little Lackawanna. There was
general bearish feeling on the Grangers, and
the whole list, in fact, was slow and heavy.
Even while Lackawanna was advancing the
other stocks were selling off. The restoration
Of trunk line freight rates would have good
effect, it was thought, but 1t did not seem to
stimulate anything. The outlook for the
Oregon 81 Navigation roads is bad one,
owing to increased expenses and decreased
earnings, while the prospect of unfavorable
legislation in Dakota and Minnesota hangs
over the Changers. The st. Paul stock sold
yesterday was for long account, and was de-
clined to-day by Brown Bros. Il Co. There
is really nothing left for the bulls TO work on
but coal stocks, and this opportunity they are
making the most of.
