Appeals from the Police Court.

NEW DEPARTURE OF JUDGE SMELL.
In all prosecutions brought against persons
for alleged violations of the municipal laws,
where appeals are taken from the decision Of
the Police Court, the person appealing is re-
Quired to deposit $5, as q docket fee. with the
clerk OF the court, in the city hall, in addition
to giving bonds In the Police Court for appear
ance In court and prosecution of their appeal
The amount OF docket fee is often equal TO or
more than the amount of fine imposed, and
twelve impartial citizens. For this reason q
large number OF poor persons, although not at
an SATISFIED with the Judgment given against
Them by the Police Court. are compelled to SUBJ
nit 10 IT, as they would not do If they could
AFFORD 70 appeal. In cases where violations of
the United States laws, such as assaults, rob-
berries, ETC., are charged, it is different. In such
cases no docket fee, but simply bond for ap-
pearance is required, and Consequently the ap-
peals ON the United States side are much
more numerous than those on the District side
Numbers OF cases in which appeals have been
taken but not perfected within ten days have
oeen held In the clerks office for year or two
citizens who have often forgotten the facts con-
nected with their cases are brought up to paw
the hue. Recently the clerk sent back to the
Police Court number of cases. and before the
court had time TO enforce its original Judgment
counsel for defendant would get Judge MacAr-
thur 10 vacate the rule requiring docket Tee
Such cases became numerous and troublesome
ana Judge Smell has notified the clerk not to
comply with any more sucD requests.
Ine act establishing the Police Court gives
persons feeling aggrieved by the decision OF the
Police Court the right of appeal to the Criminal
Court ana trial by jury, and states that the case
is To be tried the same as in the court in which
II originated. Nothing is said about docket
fees. Before the establishment of the Police
Court all cases brought by the District were
tired In the Circuit Court, and the amount OF
the POllce Court the Tee was reduced to So. in
steao OF being abolished altogether.

Telephone or Telegraph? I?

From Nature.
The question Of telephony VS.. telegrapEy
has been recently discussed by q well-known
German electrician, Dr. Wietlisbach. The chief
hindrance to the use of the telephone for long
distances is, he points out, of financial, not of
technical nature. A telephone line 1000 KIM.
long costs considerably over a million marks.
tance; but even supposing the line were in con-
slant use day and night, the receipts must be
five marks (say shillings) minute to make it
pay. In telephone work, however, the line is
In use only few hours daily; hence a short con-
versation would cost at least so marks (f2 1Os.)
That is, of course, too dear for ordinary traffic
The telegraph works with almost the same
speed more than ten times more cheaply. Thus
the question as to rivalry between telephone
and telegraph finds its settlement The tele-
phone up 10 about 500 KIN. distance (say 80
miles)will more and more displace the telegraph,
and find an extension which the telegraph
would never reach. But for greater distances
the telegraph must keep the upper hand. Thus
telephone and telegraph are really not rivals,
but fitted to supplement- each other.

A telegram to the New York Herald from Ell
Paso, Texas, October "a, says: 1t has been an
open secret In FL PasO for some time that A. K,
Cutting, of International fame, had convinced
himself that he could organize an expedition
against the northern states OF Mexico and stake
out Of their hides,' as 1t were his grievance
against that country. To-day the details were
learned for the first time. The scheme appears
| to others chimerical. but to Cutting and his
| hackers as easy as falling of q log. The facts
are Ell Paso is the headquarters of q secret ex-
ecutive committee, which is seeking to organize
niibustering expedition against Mexico. 1t is
influential member OF this committee.
OBJECT OF THE FILIBUsTERs
The leading features of the movement are:
An army Of 10000 men is to be raised in the
United States cross into Mexico seize the states
of Chihuahua, Sonora and Durango, wrest them
from Mexican dominion and erect them into
an independent socialfstic republic. Circulars,
calling for men, have been sent broadcast to
the
received already amounting to eight thousand
| men. Work is being done in New York, Chi
| ting the surplus unemployed laboring men. The
leaders are confident Of raising ten thousand
men easily, and assert that thirty or forty thou
| sand more would follow very rapidly. Great
| aid Is expected from the Yaquf Indians and
| from the Mexican revolutiOnists. Capitalists,
new YORK and Chicago are now DISCUSSING @ ias the m
making OF loan, taking large amount Of the
bonds Of the new republic and also on the land
aud mineral deposits OF Chihuahua, Sonora and
Durango.
MORMoNISM BACKING THE MOVEMENT.
7 The leaders here say there is no more trouble
about funds. The Mormon church has also given
assurances that it will raise q large amount of
money in consideration of home undisturbed
The conspirators say 1t would take an army
| of $4,000 TO guard this frontier that they
could not get across. They say that their move
ment is ouly against the corrupt and tottering
Mexican government, not against the Mexican
people. They propose to abolish the peon sys-
tenn, cut up vast haciendas into small farms
and give prosperity and happiness to the peo-
pie. They expect to have assistance from the
Mexican masses and the good will OF the Cath
olic church. Several priests are known to be
taking part in the matter. Revolutions are
breaking out in every part OF Mexico, and these
priests hope the proposed filibustering expedi-
tion will be the means of overthrowing the
Diaz government and re-estabishing the power
OF the church Mexican priests are represented
as very friendly to the cOnspirators, and many
letters were shown, but for prudential reasons
all names are withheld for the present. The
leaders are confident. Cutting has been mys-
teriOusly busy since his release. Consul Brig
ham Is very angry at Cuttings supposed con-
nection with the filibustering conspiracy, and
condemns 1t in round terms.
