MORE WORK F r. GRAND JURIEs.
Internal Revenue Law Niolations-fro-
ceedings by Indictment, and Not oS
Information.

Cecdings by Indictment, ana NoI "
Information.
A recent decision OF the supreme Court
Of the United states on a point involving
prosecution by information is attracting
much attention from the bar. and from
those members who practice In the l. nltea
states courts in particular. Prosecutions
by information have greatly increased
during the last fifteen years. IN the ma
iOrity Of the cases II is the easiest method
Of procedure, the quickest ana least cum
bersOme. The general current on opinion
in the Circuit and District courts mas
been towards sustaining prosecutions 10y
information for any crime CONVICTION OF
which would not at common law have
disqualified the convict L. be witness.
The case in question was that
of one Wilson, who was prosecuted
on information and convicted in AN
Uuited states Court in Arkansas. lie
was charged with teTteitlng United
states bonds, having made what puf-
ported 20 be bonds Of 1.-THE United states
Mining Company and which, ID typog-
raphy aud design resembled genuine
United states bonds. he was sentenced
10 pay fine of $1,000, and to be I'M
pris0ned for - years. The House Of Cor
rection at Detroit, Mich, was appointed
as the place OF confinement. The case
Was taken % the supreme Court Of the
United states on hubeas corpus based
on number OF exceptions. The only
one sustained was that declaring that
Wilson was Illegally restrained Of his no
ertY, having been convicted on lnforma-
ti0n instead OF by indictment by grand
jury, the crime charged being an Infamous
one.
The opinion Of the cOur. discharging
aaIf,..r..f frr II Iuaffpa
GRAY, who cited the Iitth amendment,
which provides that mo person shall be
held to answer for capital or otherwise
infamous crime unless on a presentment
or Indictment Of grand jury
The crime. he held, was infamous, being
punishable by Imprisonment for term
Of wears at hard labor
The decision will affect future pro-
cedures against Violators of several sec
lions OF the Revised Statutes OF the United
States, but chiefly in internal revenue
cases. For instance, persons engaged in
the retail liquor business without having
paid The special tax have hitherto been
prosecuted on information. The party
accused would be taken before
"A United States Commissioner, and if not
discharged the facts would he embodied
IN technical shape by the United States
District Attorney and be placed on the
trial docket. The otlense being punish
able by imprisonment az hard labor for
year or more is an infamous crime within
the meaning Of the fifth amendment OF
the constitution. Under the above decs-
ion prosecution can only hold in such a
case when a true bill has been found by
the grand jury. The probable result will
be that the grand jury will have more
work. but fewer cases will be taken into
court.
In the opinion of the District Attorney
the work Of the grand jury Of this DISTRICT
will not be seriously EN- barrassed.

RIVER STREET IMPROVEMENTS.
The New Iron Bridge over the ogeeche c
Canal.

Canal.
Central railroad wOrkmen are busily
engaged at the west end of River street
constructing a new bridge over the canal.
All Of the piliug is driven, and the foun-
dations for the brickwork abuments are
being rapidly completed. a temporary
track connects with the river junction
branch. aud a road-bed is being made to
The bridge. The tracks Will cross the
new bridge several feet above the water.
Quite an embankment has already
been made south OF the road.
The bridge will be much like the new
one across the canal at the foot Of Bay
street. At Will be 90 feet wide and 40
feet long. on the north side will be
f0otway feet vide, and next will be two
carTiageways. each rs feet wide. and on
the south side will be l6-feet way for
The railroad track. Only single track
viii be laid, and it will run up the middle
OF River street, with graded aud planked
carriageway on each side 10 the Central
cotton press aud warehouses. The bridge
VIII De strung on 1Ve iron giTders AS
soon "a possible track will be thrown
across, aud grading viii be begun on
The east side. The work is expected TO
he finished ia September. When completed
u viii give the Central railroad direct ac-
cess 70 its cotton presses by rail. Hereto
fore II has been necessary TO transfer The
cotton en- draws from the sheds west of
the canal % the presses on this side. The
opening OF the new bridge above has
turned the travel that way and taken it
from River street, which during the cot
ION stripping season has always been
crowded. There are now two entrances
10 that part Of the city, when for
merly there was but one, and each is
much better than the old one which
crossed The canal where the bridge is now
being erected.

sociation has rendered TO the city its third

all Southern men joining the association

The association has arranged a very en-
tlcing programme for IL. and has cOmpli-
mented Macon with an offer Of the tOurna-
ment. II has been accepted, and every
effort will be made TO render the occasion
one Of the most successful that has ever

Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1885-10-24

The editor OF the CHRoN ICLE made
the report of the meeting of the Board
of Trade which was published in this
paper. He had no personal feeling in
the matter, and was studious in his
effort to make it fair and impartial
Any lack of completeness was simply
the result of his not being a steno-
grapher. If Mr.. Clay Stacker or any
one else means to insinuate that he
pandered to any person or any cause,
the insinuation is false. Mr.. Stacker
is correct in his statement that Mr..
Herndon did say in his second speech
something to the effect that he was re-
sponsible for what he had said for
merly, the cap could be worn by any
one it fit. We think he also said he
had no reference to Mr.. Whitfield, and
this was left out of the CHRONICLES
report through mere inadvertence.
The reporter didn't then and doesn't
now deem it very material.

MORE TREASURE.

Since the publication of the article
concerning "Trouville's Treasure" we
have heard of sundry other valuables
that have at various times been hidden
in the bowels OF the earth in and about
GAINESVILLE.
Capt. Mat. Carkuf tells us of one,
the existence of which, has long been
known but which no one has ever
been lucky enough to find.
The Captain says that in early times
tribe of Indians, living some dis
lance south of Nashville, had been paid
large amount of gold, about $4,000,
by the government for their lands.
Shortly after receiving this gold, they
went on the war-path and attacked the
fort at Nashville. They were repulsed
and the settlers pursued them in the
direction of GAINESVILLE. Being hard
pressed they buried their gold under
what is known as King and Queens
bluff, about Il mile and a half from
Seven Mile Ferry. After making the
interrment they kept on down the
river and while crossing on the reef at
Ferrell's Landing, were overtaking
and fired upon by the persuing set
tiers
The fight at Ferrell's Landing is a
well known historic event, and was
participated in by Col. Davidson,
grandfather OF Mr.. Alex Davidson of
this city. Capt. Carkuf says the bury
ing OF the gold is equally as well au-
thenticated.
A son of thgCherollee chief came
back here afterwards and tried in vain
to recover the treasure, and persons
who lived hereabout made unsuccess-
full attempts to dig it up for years.
