The Car Company Case.

The trial Of the car company case pro-
crosses slowly. All OF yesterday was taken
up in the continuation of the arguments of
the different attorneys to strike out the de-
murer previously mentioned. The answer in
question is that which sets up an attempt to
plead a personal liability in the stockholders
of Seymour, Sabin & Co. and to adjust that
In the claim on a guaranty of the car COM
pany against the car company. To that part
OF the answer demurerS were interposed at
the motion TO strike out. The early part OF the
forenoon was occupied by Fayette Marsh. the
attorney for j. G. O'Gorman, receiver of Sey-
mour, Sabin & Co., the Fourth National bank
OF New York, and j. +. Davis of Minneapolis,
in the continuance of his argument. At the
conclusion of Mr.. Marsh's very able argu-
ment, the question as to whether j. G. OGor-
man as receiver had any right to be repre-
sented or not came up and occupied the rest
OF the forenoon. There was q general
fight over this question, and the court de-
cided that he was entitled to representation in
the case. The creditors of the car company,
through Messrs. Castle, Sanborn and Penney,
opposed him, and Messrs. Marsh aud Searles
defended him. After dinner the first argu-
ment was made by j. n. Searles, who repre-
sents some of the holders of certificates,
which occupied an hour or so. He was fol-
lowed by j. n. Castle, attorney for E. s.
Brown, receiver Of the car company, in an
argument of an hours duration. H. l.. Clapp,
who represents some of the creditors. followed
speaking for few minutes, after which court
adjourned till this morning.
Judge Flandreau will make the closing
argument this morning, after which the
hearing of the testimony will commence.

angular Duel.

CHICAGO, April ia special dispatch
from Eastland, Tex, says: A triangular
duel on horseback took place near here yes
terday, in which one man was killed and
two others seriously wounded, one of whom
will die. The scene was the open prairie.
about mile south of town. John Ellison
and W. G. Hardin had been litigating over
some land. They had been in attendance
in court all day and late in the afternoon
mounted their horses and started for home.
Some hot talk was engaged in, which re-
suited in pitched battle between John and
Tom Ellison on the one hand. and W. G.
Hardin on the other. No one in the affray
escaped unhurt. Tom Ellison was first to
fall, shot through the breast by bullet
from Hardin's pistol. he expired in few
minutes. About twenty shots were fired.
John Ellison and Hardin perforated each
other with bullets. Hardin cannot live and
John Ellison is seriously wounded. The
particulars of the quarrel cannot be ascer-

the battle was well under way.

PARTISAN REPORTERs
Handled by Chris. A. Gallagher
without Gloves

Some of the city papers, evidently will
fully, too, perverted the language used by
Chris. A. Gallagher at the Inauguration
meeting on Bridge square on Tuesday even
ing. He had been talking of the Republi-
can sQuirming on the liquor question and
then. turning to the audience said: ''YOu
are the bone and sinew of the Democratic
party" These papers twisted his language
to make him say the liquor dealers were
the bone and sinew. Mr.. Gallagher saws
the following concerning it:
To the Editor of the Globe:
1t seems unnecessary after the stupid ex-
hibition of the Pioneer Press and the Journal
during the campaign just closed, to notice
the result of their mudded brains CD in the
report of my remarks on Bridge square on
Tuesday evening. Republican papers that
made so much capital for the Democratic
party as the Press and Journal did the past
three weeks must naturally be a little be-
wildered-probably the editors have not re-
turned from the secluded shades of st. Peter
where they are gazing in rapture upon the
grand result of their herculenean editorials
and illustrations of the past campaign. The
remarks attributed to me were robbed of
their quotation marks, and the authors of
them, the Republican leaders, deprived of
the credit CD thereof. l should ask the above
papers to do me the justice of making this
correction, but have seen so much of their
imbecility that fear this might be regarded
as an editorial on the Chinese question and
be so published. CHRIS A. GALLAGHER.

Rail Notes.

The directors of the company recently
formed to build railroad from Glendale TO La
Moure, OAK, are men Of ample means to build
the thirty or forty miles necessary to give
that place a northern outlet: but they evil
IDENTIFY have the Milwaukee road behind them,
as it has as much interest in getting 10 La
Moure as has its great rival, the North
western. II is given out that the cars will
ruin from Glendale TO La Moure by Oct. i.

CURRENT ENT.

Chief John West of the police depart
ment will to-day complete his thirteenth
year in the service. On April 10, 1873, he
was appointed patrolman by Mayor Rand
and has been steadily promoted until, on
April 16, 1884, Mayor Pillsbury made him
chief. Mayor Ames twice promoted him,
so that politics did not enter the matter at
ali. Chief West, outside of Office and poll
tics, is personally very popular and is a
prominent Grand Army man. 1t is alto
gether probable he will hold down another
official position under the city government.

to increase this condition came the terrible
disaster up the river, and Minneapolis has

active efforts to afford relief. there was a

GLADSTONE,S MEASURE.
What the Proposed Irish Parlia-
ment Way and May Not Do.

LONDON, April 15.-The house of COM
mons having voted permission to Mr.. Glad
stone to introduce his bill for the better
government of Ireland, the official text of
the measure is to-day made public. 1t de-
bars the proposed Irish parliament from
legislating concerning the status. dignity or
succession of the crown. from passing laws
affecting peace or war, the army or
navy, the militia or volunteers or the de-
Tense of the realm, and from taking any
action concerning the foreign or colonial
relations of the empire. Among the other
subjects placed beyond the power of the
Irish government to deal with are dignita-
rieS, titles and honOrs. prizes and bottles of
war, offenseS against the law of nations,
treason and alienage, navigation, copy
right patents, mails, telegraph, coinage,
and weights and measures. The bill fur
ther prohibits Ireland from doing any
thing to establish or endow any religion, or
to disturb or confer any privileges on
ACCOUNT OF RELIGIOUS BELIEF
and also forbids it to impose customs or ex-
else duties. The queen is given the same pre-
rogative to summon, prorOgue and dissolve
the Irish legislature as she has with respect TO
the imperial parliament. To her majesty is
also reserved the power to erect forts arse
euN NNSny otNo. AhO AtiSu
legislature is permitted to impose taxes to be
paid into the consolidate fund to defray the
expenses OF the public service in Ireland, sub
ject to the provisions of the Irish land pur-
chase bill, but is not TO either raise or appro-
pirate revenue without the queens recon-
mendation, made through the lord lieutenant.
The church property in Ireland is to belong
TO the Irish people subject to existing changes.
The executive government of ireland is
vested by the queen in lord lieutenant, who
will govern, with the aid of such officers and
councils as the queen may appoint, and will
give or withhold the queens assent to such
bills as the Irish legislature may pass.
