in December, 1882, followed by prompt
occupancy as soon as the buildings were

was not subject to the Judgment, lien, or

jeremiah NJ. Main, plaintiff in error,
VS.. James G.. Browne, defendant in
error; error from Cameron county. De-
fendant was appointed administrator of
an estate in 1862 No order was made
until August %, 1879, when a motion
was filed by the heirs requiring him to
account, give new bond, etc. The
county court restated the account.
Whereupon the heirs applied to the dis
trict court for a certiorari to bring the
cause up for revision. The writ was
granted, but the district court sustained
a motion to dismiss the proceeding on the
ground that the probate court had no
jurisdiction, because of the lapse of time
since the estate was opened, during
which the administration was ignored
and it was therefore commended that it
would be conclusively presumed TO have
been closed Held: Error. The cases
of Murphy vs. Menard, IA Tex. 62, and
Ports VS.. Cummings. id l39, have no
application, as they turned upon the
Statute of 1910, which limited admins
tration to one year unless extended for
good cause That statute was super
eeded by the act of lS4S. Nor can the
case of Marx vs.. Hill, 46 Tex. $50, be
invoked, as it rests upon the power in
the probate court to grant the order
made. Without statute or well estab-
lished rule TO that effect we would be
loath to hold that mere lapse of
time without action by the court
would relieve the administrator
from being called to account IN the pro-
bate court. Since 1862 there has been
no statute fixing the term of an admins
tration. An administrator cannot plead
his own laches as bar to the jurisdiction
of the court to compel him to make set

PREP0STEROUS STORY.
Shipwreeked Mariner Without Offer-
ing Him Assistance.

BOSTON, Mvss. Jan. ga report
that the Cunard liner Catalonia had failed
to rescue Capt. Lund of the wrecked
barge John Bunyan off Sprading's ledge
on Monday when he was floating on
raft and making signals of distress, has
caused much talk. Capt. Atkins of the
Catalonia was seen to-day. He said:
''That [ should leave a shipwrecked
mariner to perish, is preposterous. Dur
ing that fearful gale and snow storm of
Sunday night and Monday morning which
met us while we were approaching Ma
nots' Island. l was on the bridge We
took on Capt. Martin of the pilot boat
with difficulty. l had been on bridge
twenty-four hours. Every officer on
board ship was at his post, and full corps
of deck hands, both fore and aft, were
summoned for duty. We met wreckage
of two barges at II 20 a. m. Monday, and
gave signal for the ship to slow down as
timbers were floating about us. After
we had made Manots the storm came
down on us again. The wind lasted
for half an hour, and when it lifted we
were heading for Harding's ledge. We
met so much wreckage we tried hard
to keep a sharp lookout. Extra men
were sent to the forecastle deck; other
men were sent aloft. The business of
Capt. Martin and myself was to pilot
the ship with caution. Neither of us
saw any man in distress, nor did any of
my officers or sailors report the fact The
first intimatIon 1 received that we had
passed a shipwrecked man was when 1
reached quarantine. The assertions of
Capt. Lund that he saw two seamen on
the Catalonia IS topgallant forecastIe
wave their hands and then run off to the
bridge, is totally without foundation
was on the bridge for twenty-four hours,
as I stated before.
