FRONT STREETS WIDTH.
A Discussion as to the Immediate Duty
Of Property Owners.

While looking at the excavation OF n
Front street lot yesterday, before
which was piled lot OF rabble stone
and brick. citizen remarked that he
was pleased 10 think another large and
handsome iire-proof house was 10 be
built. and he would be more pleased
to know that il was to be set back on
the proposed widened street line. No
one present seemed 10 be informed on
this point, but all joined in the hope
that the new building would be set back
from the old street line One gentle
man said the buildings on the street
| the main business thoroughfare oil the
city were very irregularly placed.
Some boldly fronted the old street line
some were set back Q feet TO the pro-
posed new street line; still others were
two. three. four and i've feet back.
The owners apparently had almost a

buildings they erected numbered. All

The supreme court of the United States
has rendered decision in the case of Hugh
NJ. Brooks alias W. II. Maxwell against
the state of Missouri. This is the famous
Maxwell Preller murder case. Brooks, or
Maxwell, the plaintiff in error, is now in
prison in the city OF st. Louis under SEN
tence or death for the murder of c. Arthur
Preller in April, 1885. The case was brought
to the supreme court upon a writ of error
to the supreme court of Missouri and the
decision is upon a motion made by the at
torney general of that state to dismiss for
want of jurisdiction. The court was un-
able, after careful examination of the
record, to find that the plaintiff in error
had been deprived OF any right, privilege
or immunity guaranteed to him by the
constitution of the United States, and the
motion TO dismiss for want of Jurisdiction
was therefore granted. The decision was
announced by Chief Justice Waite, and
its effect is to affirm the sentence of death
pronounced b. the state court.
