The long standing contest ii
the Courts, by Mrs. Marie P. Ev
ans, formerly Linton, against the
State National Bank, wherein plain
tiff sought to recover the value Of
1900 bales of cotton seized on the
Quantico plantation, in this Parish,
has just heen decided in favor Of
defendant, by U. S. Judge Don A.
Pardee. This suit has been pend.
ing for more than twenty years.
The prominent features of the case
show that j. X. Elgee brought
suits in the Court of Rapides Par
ish in 1863 for w. & d. Urqubart
and the Louisiana State Bank
against Duncan Linton, on notes
aggregating $4,000. Two writs
of seizure were issued and placed in
the hands of Mr.. John Clements,
at that time Deputy Sheriff, who
seized 1900 bales of Linton's cot
ton on the Quantico place and ap-
pointed j. Madison Wells custo-
dian. The Court says: IA portion
OF the same, about 1000 bales, was
carried to New Orleans, and the
balance, 800 bales, was taken up
the Mississippi river to some point
in Illinois. The cotton which ar
rived at New Orleans was consign-
ed to and received by G. A. Weed
& Co., who sold seme and paid to
Wells net proceeds thereof, some
$4,000. The evidence gives no
further account of the cotton, worth
at that time at least 100000,
which went up the Mississippi riv-
er. Linton, absent in Europe, had
no knowledge of the seizures made
in 1868, or of the removal of his
cotton, and died ignorant of the
facts" Judge Pardee decreed that
there was no evidence that the
Bank participated in or received
any of the proceeds of this cotton.
The Court makos no suggestion as
to what became of the $40, 1000
paid to the custodian by Weed
& Go. The suit was decided against
Mrs. Evans.

BEER AND WINE LEAGUE.-Ou
Monday at noon, soon after it had
been learned that Judge Blackman
was going to quash the indictment
in the Swami case, number of
gentlemen, all residents Of Alexan-
dria, gathered together near the
City Hall, and discussed the prac-
ticability of inaugurating what they
termed a Cheer and wine league"
in this city. A reporter of this pa
per was present during the dis
course, and was requested to make
note of what was done then and
there regarding the subject. All
were Of one opinion, viz: that such
a league, helped and supported by
people Of the Town and Parish,
would prove a success, at the same
time meeting the demands of all
who wished to imbibe. The league
is to exist only in Town, hence 9TH
er quarters Of the Parish are not to
be included in the limits, and will
not be allowed the privilege of SELL
ing the above named beverages.
We suppose regular rules will be
adopted after organization of the
association, to be fully carried out
to the letter by all members there
of. The movement is not a weak
one, and if it were championed in
the right sort of way, might grow
to Larger proportions. In our next
we may be able to say more con-
corning the subject.
