The appointment of the Democratic
Congressional campaign committee
has brought to the surface vast deal
of feeling against Cleveland. Some of
the members of the committee say the
party is languishing of dry rot through
the policy the President has laid
down, and if matters do not change,
active workers-those upon whom the
heat and burden of the day has al
ways rested-will go into the next
campaign absolutely without heart or
spirit. It is declared to be certain
that if matters remain as at present
when the Demoeratic Congressional
conventions assemble, in many of
them resolutions will be brought for
ward distinctly disavowing and con-
demniag the policy of the administra-
tion in these respects where it is at
variance with the views of the great
body of leaders and the masses of the
party" that is, about the spoils.

CHANCELLOR Runyon has decided an
interesting point in law which was
raised in a suit brought by Godfrey
Schult against the Foreign Mission
ary Society of the Methodist Church.
In 1869 Schult was in Germany, and
was induced to come to this country by
his uncle, Godfrey Schult, who lived in
Irvington. The elder Schult wrote to
his nephew, promising to make him
his heir. The nephew came and lived
here ten years without receiveing any
assistance from his relative. At his
death the uncle left will giving his
entire property to the missionary So
ciety. The nephew began a suit,
claiming that the letter which induced
him to come to this country was con-
tract. The Chancellor decided that the
letter was contract, that it could be
enforced, and he overruled the de-
murrer of the defendants.
