SAN ANTONIO, TEX Nov, In the
federal court This afternoon, contrary to
the general expectation, the celebrated
mare seizure case which has dragged its
weary length along for so many days,
came TO On end with verdict by the
jury In favor Of the claimant Rust, for
the 1876 head OF mares wrongfully seized
and sold by the government The case
was strongly contested on all
sides, though the arguments of
counsel were not so extensive as ex-
pected The jury was out but a short
time In making its verdict. After 1t had
been read, Judge Turner announced
in open court that he would give a
certificate to the feet that there was
probable cause for the seizure. This,
however, will not prevent the claimant
prosecuting his suit for $40 900 against
Otto Threlkeld, the collector OF the
Saluria district, who made the seizure
Rust also has recourse for the amount of
money the government received by the
sale OF the stock in controversy

Must obtain Legal Divorce.

Special to the Gazette.
NNTrA, |. T., Nov. l7,-An important
case to many people in the Indian Terri
tory has recently been decided in the
federal court at Ft Smith. A white man
residing In the Cherokee nation had a
Shawnee wife but they did not live pleas
antly together, ana according to a custom
IN the nation they agreed to separate as
man aud wife aud signed written agree
ment TO that effect, which was duly wit
messed and recorded In the clerks office.
This was but one of large number of
such cases as evidenced by the
records OF the several districts of
the ration. Such agreements to separate
have been considered by the Cherokee
and other authorities to be equivalent TO
divorce, but Judge Parker has decided
that they are not, and the defendant In
question was sentenced to sixty days i'm
prisonment. Parties who have been re-
lying upon their legal sufllcIency should
lose no time in procuring a regular
divorce from the council.

FORT SMITH, ARK, Nov. 1.-THE
grand jury for the November term of the
federal court was discharged to-day,
having been in session since the LIST, and
found lO7 true bills, ignoring thirteen
owing to lack Of funds TO pay Witnesses,
etc. The criminal docket will likely be
closed In few days. TO that end about
forty cases were called to day and con
tlnued to the February, 1887, term, and
the Witnesses sent home until that time.
This works great hardship on both wit

being in jail unable to make bond.
