AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Responsibility Attaching to Man Who Buys
Bonds of a School District.

Sioux CITY, Ia. Oct 12.-Judge Shiras has
rendered opinion in an important case that
of John W. Bates vs. the Independent School
District of Riverside of Lyon County, Iowa.
This case was tried at the May term of court and
was submitted in vacation. The opinion is i'm
portant from the fact that there are several
other cases against the Riverside school district
now before the court at this session, and the
principles involved concern many other school
districts in this locality.
In this action plaintiff seeks to recover judg
ment upon certain interest coupons belonging TO
two series of bonds issued in June, $780, and
July. 1881, by defendant The first issue. it is
claimed, was issued under the powers granted to
independent school districts by the provisions of
Secs 1921. 1922, and 1923 of the Code of Iowa,
and Chap. 121 of the Seventeenth General As
sembly. The second series. it is claimed, was
issued under the provisions of Chap. 1872 of the
acts of the Eighteenth General Assembly, for
the purpose of taking up and refunding bonds of
an earlier date bearing 10 per cent. interest
The court held that the plaintiff was bound to
know the Indebtedness which the school district
could lawfully incur, and as the bonds offered
for sale by him exceeded this limit he knew or
was bound to know-no matter what the recitals
in the bonds set forth--that the school district
could not legally issue these bonds Judgment
must therefore be entered for defendant

much small silver is going out now as there was
eight months ago, and the flow increases every
week This, they say, Is unmistakable evidence
of better trade among the people, and that we
are entering upon an era of prosperity. Speaking
of the matter to-day, an old Treasury officer
said:
''We are receiving the same kind of call from
the merchants and banks we lad when we were
emerging from the panics of 1894 and 1878.
Many of the letters received contain reference to
this fact. being written by the same parties who

THE SPY SYSTEM.

Employees Whose Business 1t La to Keep O
Watch Their Fellow Clerks.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12-"There is one thing
that I should like to see Congress look into,n
said an old clerk in the Treasury to-day, land
that is the employment of some of these new
men by those who have control of affairs in this
department. Here is one fellow who is drawing
81, 400 or 81, 500 year as private secretary or
stenographer to one of the new officials who has
absolutely done nothing since he has been in
here but play the sneak upon his associates.
This man can be found in the corridors at almost
any time of day, and occasionally he is seen
sneaking into room SO quietly that few would
hear him, and if he finds a Republican clerk
who has not his coat off and who is not sweat
ing like mower in hay field, this cad reports
him. 1t is contemplate piece of espionage
which the administration should be ashamed Of,
and l think it would be if Cleveland knew it,
DO you mean to tell me, asked that this
man is listened to by his superior officers?n
Not only that" was the reply, ''but he is
actually sent out, by of them at least for the
very purpose of spying upon the clerks, and yet
this official casually remarks to those who care
to know that he is embarrassed and annoyed by
men who are not in sympathy with him, and
that he is thereby unable to bring about all the
reforms he desires"

A NEW ELECTION LAW.
A Statute Which Illinois Voters Will Have
Opportunity to Pass Upon.

CHICAGO, Oct. 12-Judge Prendergast rendered
decision in the county court to-day that will
give the people an opportunity to vote on the
election law enacted by the last Legislature
The law has the local option feature, and must
be adopted by the people of the city or village
desiring its benefit before it becomes operative.
Doubt has been EXPIRE ssed as to the constitution
ality of the law, and, with a view to testing that
question the county court formally declined to
order his clerk to prepare the blanks provided by
law for use upon its submission. Upon such re-
fusal, an application was made to the Supreme
Court for mandamus compelling Judge
Prendereast to issue tho order Meanwhile a
vacancy was made in the Supreme Court by the
death of Judge Dickey. That left even num-
ber of judges and they divided evenly on the
petition, three holding the law to be constitu-
tional and three holding it to be unconstitutional
On last Wednesday Mr. Alexander Sullivan
on behalf of the petitioners. made a lengthy
argument on the motion. asking the court to
make the necessary order for the submission of
She law Notwithstanding his former declina-
tion, he urged that the courts refusal. at time
when it was believed the refusal would bring a
test case before the Supreme Court. and secure
that tribunals decision before the November
election, should not prevent the court from
making the order now, when it was impossible
to get a decision until the January term of the
will be filed. The court was earnestly pressed
to give the people opportunity to vote
for the law, that If declared constitutional, it
could be enforced in the election of 1886, which
will be one of the most important ever held in
Chicago There will then be elected six judges
Of court of record, four congressman, sheriff,
eounty treasurer and fourteen members of the
Legislature. The proposed election law includes
khe best features of the New York and Massa-
chusetts laws. 1t abolishes the swearing in of
voters on election day. Only those who register
In advance can vote. The polls will open at 6 in
the morning and close at in the afternoon.

done toward eveliBg
The court took sae case under advisement and

feature viii make the approaching November
election of much more than ordinary interest.

THE DISORDER AT ST. LOUIS.
NoTroubIeY Yesterday-The Mayor Will Not Ac-
cept knights of Labor for Police Service.

ST. LOUIS, Oct 1.-THE situation in the
streetcar strike this morning remains unchanged
since yesterday. The strikers assembled qnietly
nt Turner Hall this morning to await develop
ments. Cars are running on all the lines, under
escort of police. No disturbances have occurred.
Some of the drivers and conductors who were
frightened off by the rioters have returned to
work, and no serious trouble is unprecedented
FOR the present
Mayor Francis was met at his Office and, after
the resolution was presented to him, he stated
shat he was glad to see the committee, and to
have the counsel Of citizens in times like these.
He then explained the situation, and claimed
that the authorities had done everything in their
power to maintain order that the police had so
Ear dispersed all mobs that had assembled, and,
in his Judgment, they were able to, and would
suppress all lawlessness. No roads had stopped
running cars at his suggestion, but, on the con-
.rary he had urged the companies
TO continue their service, and he would
protect them. There was no organized
mob yet in the city, therefore the militia
would not be called out, but should the lawless
ness increase beyond the power of tue police to
control other and effective measures would be
immediately used to suppress it. He advised
the committee to be sworn in as special police
men. and again assured them that everything
maintain the peace and dignity of the city. The
mayor also stated that no street-car men and no
Knights of Labor would be accepted as special
policemen. He further stated that. under the
law of this State, the upsetting or destruction
of railway is felony punishable by long
imprisonment in the penitentiary. and that he
favors the prosecution of the rioters arrested to
the full extent of the law
The meeting of business men to discuss the
gtreetcar strike this morning was quite exciting.
The report of the subcommittee, made and sub
mitted on Saturday, was rejected.
John ID. Perry, a banker. father-in-law Of
Mayor Francis, expressed himself as opposed to
recognizing the Knights Of Labor, which he de-
scribed as an irresponsible body of men.
l.. b. Ripley, an iron merchant, said the way
TO act was to take the rioters by the throat and
make them respect the majesty of the law Mr..
Ripleys speech was greeted with cheers.
A new committee was appointed which re-
turned resolution calling on the mayor to pro-
tect life and property. After some discussion.
this resolution was adopted and committee
appointed to wait on Mayor Francis with it
During the meeting John r. Lionbeyer stated,
for the street-car proprietors that they had no
grievances and wanted no arbitration by business
men any else. The committee then went
to seek the mayor ana lay the resolution before
him.

GEN. GORDON'S COAL MINES.
The Distinguished Georgian Explains His
Relations with the Firm of Grant & Ward.

CHATTANOOGA, Oct. 12-The Herald pub
fishes the following from Atlanta Ca, this
morning Gen. John B. Gordon, on being asked
to-day his opinion concerning the disclosures
about himself made by Ferdinand Ward in con-
nection with the Belmont mines transactions.
says:
1.-The Belmont coal mines are situated in
Jackson county. Ala, and were owned and
operated by company composed of my brothers
Eugene and Walker Gordon, Governor Colquitt
and myself. We had operated this mine sue
cessfully, and the returns each month showed an
excess of receipts. We needed money to de-
velope the mines. and to ascertain the real value
of the property We engaged Mr.. Eugene
adwn and INSPECT thsm Mr zmerne
is the most skil)ful expert in this busi
ness in the country. and he gave US a written
opinion declaring that the mines ought to pay in
terest on ST, 900 600. l went to New York,
met General Grant. and, at his request went
down to the Office of Grant & Ward, and con-
suited Ward and young Grant about it. They
agreed to invest in the mines. They were to
take $100, 600 of bonds, which were to be a mort
gage on the entire property These bonds were
to bear per cent. interest. We agreed to give
Grant g. Ward full control of the mines,
although they owned only minority of the stock.
Wards brother was sent down to examine the
mines He reported favorably upon them, and
the firm of Grant & Ward then paid over their
money. which was every cent used in developing
the mines. The mine turned out
losing affair, as a man was placed in
control who knew nothing of the busi-
ness. / resigned the presidency of the
company, as did not approve of this mans
management. About that time I needed money,
and borrowed $l8, 600 from the Marine Bank
did not get the money on the Endorsement of
Grant & Ward. but on my personal note and
those of my associates AS security we gave
$500, 600 of stock in the Belmont Coal Company.
Soon after borrowed this money Ferdinand
Ward fought to purchase our stock. He con-
tnued his offers until the $l8.0 900 fell due at the
Marine Bank. 1t was not convenient for US to
pay the money then. We had lost faith in the
management of the Mines and had, by our own
contract, relinquished all rights in the manage
ment. We agreed to let Grant, Ward g. Co.
take the entire Stock in consideration of paying
the $18 800 we owed at the Marine Bank They
were perfectly willing to- do so. and thus our
business relations closed. That is the whole
story"
