Supreme court Of California, and in 1857
succeeded to the chief justiceship. He was
brilliant lawyer but violent temper led
him into series of esca pades which have
biemished his reputation. In 1855 he
stabbed cne of the vigilance committee Of
that year as the committee was attempting
to arrest one of Terry's friends. In 1859
he got into an alteration with United
States Senator David C. Frederick, and
the result was duel In which Broderick
fell dead at the first fire. Broderick' =
friends claimed that Terry fired upon his
sntago gonist before the word was given.
Terry figured prominently In the Sharon
divor Q case as ne Of the attorneys for
the p'aintiff, Sarah Althea Hill, aud later
married her. Last year Justice Field rem
dered decision IN the case, in which he
held that Mrs. Terry had never been the
lawful wife Of Sharon. whereupon Mrs
Terry denounced him In open court ~ cor
rnpt, and made so great q disturbance
that Judge ieid ordered an officer OF the
court to take her into custody. She re-
sisted the officer, and Terry taking her
part, both were removed from the court
room. Later, while his wife was under
arrest, Terry attacked the officer In charge
Of her with dagger. but was disarmsd.
Both Terry and his wife were committed
to jail for contempt OF court BY Judge
Field, Terry being sentenced to imprison'
ment for six months

They Seem at Last to Have Joined tho For
tunes of Legitimc in Hayti.
A special from Boston says that Chief
Engineer Plumer, of the Haytian corvette
Desalaints, who has just returned from
Port-au- Prince, says that Legitime is vir-
tually in charge of the Island. Hippolyte's
forces. since their effective repulse, have
been scattered. Legitimes men, of war
are thoroughly fitte out and he
is undoubtedly receiving finan-
cial assistance from the French govern
ment. His army. uncer Gen. Gauderre. is
in tirst-class condition. Legitime is liv-
ing in the palace with his family and his
special armed guard, which attends him
everywhere. All the Americans have left
the city. Gen. Gauderre has expressed
the opinion that he does not think another
battle will be lecessary, but that Hippo
lyte will soon surrender. The only
res ources which Hippolyte has are those
which he has secured while occupying St.
Marie,

Large Number of Cases at st. Louis
The Officers Deny the KumOr.
A local evening paper says that Texas
fever has made its appearance in st. Louis
and there appears to be conspiracy to
prevent discovery of the fact. Some
time ago a number of cattle consigned
from Texas became afflicted in pens there
and thirty five died Of fever. Since then "A
number of milch cows in that vicinity have
died from the fever and there is some
a arm as to the city milk supply. Health
Commissioner Dudley denies the existence
of the fever, while the daily inspector does
not credit it. Cattlemen. however, claim
the disease from which the animals died
was Texas fever

Legi,ime Appears to be II Little More Than
Holding His Own.
Ac ording to cablegram received by
the Haytian consul general, at New York,
Des Landes, from Port au Prince, de-
cisive and bloody battle was fought few
days ago not mo than three miles from
Presi ent Legitime's palace. The loss
was heavy on both sides. On the night
of August 9th Hippolyte formed his army
into three divisions, which We're to attack
Port au Prince from as many sides. Two
plantations to the eastward of the capital
were fortified when the command to ad-
vance was given. When about two and Il
half miles from the city the northern
troops were met by the sou hern army.
Here fierce battle was fought, resulting
in the hastv retreat of Hippolyte. Des
Landes saws it is very doubtful whether
Hippolyte will attdmtt another attack up
on Port au Prince.

a NEW YORK HOLOCAUST.
An Early Morning Tenement House Fire
Fatal Results.

EAt0t besult0.
Early the other morning fire broke out
in the kitchen Of a restaurant on the lower
floor of big tiye-story tenement in New
York city. Nine of the sixty odd occu-
pants of tie house lost their lives, and it
Is u great wonder that more did not perish.
Some burned to death while others were
smothered. Several others were badly injur-
ed. The bull ing was occupied by thirteen
families. The pecuniary loss will not
amount to more than $lO,OOO. The fire
originated in the rear OF John Snyder
restaurant at an hour when all the people
in in the house We're sleeping soundly.
Just how the fire started is IL mystery, but
the restaurant cook is missing and it is
fair to presume that an accident occurred
while making a fire i'll the big range. The
awful speed with which the flames SWEPT
up through the building suggests the use
of kerosene by the careless cook.
John Snyder and Wm. brooks, his col
ored cook cook, were arrested and
arraigned before the coroner. Snyder is
charged is with incendiarism, and the po-
lice say they have gooa case.

AGREEMENT IMPOSSIBLE.
All Efforts to Settle the Illinois Mine
Troubles Fail.

All Efforts to Settle the Illinois Mine
Troubles Fail.
Probably the final conference between
the northern Illinois coal mine owners and
their miners has been held. When the
meeting was called to or'er Patrick Nc
Call, of the miners committee, stated to
the mine overs that, as decided at the
last meeting, the miners would accept the
proposition of the overs for q reduction
of y cents per ton in the price of mining,
with an amendment to the effect that Oc-
tober LIST next an aivance of q cents
should he conceded by the operators. Mr..
House, of the ope. ators' committee, repli-
ed that the proposition for an uncondition-
al reduction of y cents submitted was its
ultimatum and would continue to be It's
ultimatum until it was either accepted or
the conference broke up. Further effo t
to reconcile the contending elements
failed, and motion to journ carried,
after the formal refusal of the miners to
accept the offer Of 71a cents made by the
operators for longer than until October
first. The operators had rejected the men s
proposition Of Is cents ton after Octo-
ber first, and no course but disagreement
seemed to be left open.

ANGRY POLISH CATHOLICS.
A Chicago Pastor Narrowly Escapes Being
Mobbed at the Altar.

CHICAGO, Sept. 3.-The trouble in the
Polish Catholic congregation of the Holy
Trinity Church, on Noble street, in this
city, over the conduct of the temporal at
fairs of the parish has broken out afresh,
and a serious conflicts apprehended. Two
years after the edifce was erected the
trustees decided the property to the arch
bishop. Eight months ago, when the realty
was reinsured. the trustees made the policies
payable to themselves. The archdiocese
did not like this, and trouble ensued. The
congregation was divided intOtwo factions.
and the trustees finally refused to turn the
collections and pew-rent over to the pastor.
The archbishop then issued to Father Ko-
brezynski a letter instructing him to
take complete charge of both the
spiritual and temporal affairs of
the congregation. Sunday Father
Kobrezynski assembled the p ulpit and an
nounced the edict of the head of the arch
diocease. Immediately after murmur
swept through the audience chamber.
Some of the worshipers began to stamp the
floor with their feet, others threw their
rituals over their head, while some got up
and left the church. In the midst of all
1T became apparent that no solemn hlgh-
mass was to be celebrated, men, women and
children fiocked down the central aisle of
the church in wild disorder. For moment
the pastor. uniismayed by the taunts and
threats of his. flock, continued his holy
office. When in the middle of mass, how
ever, the worshipers left their seats and
scrambled pell nell over the sides of the in
closed pews. Father Kobrezynski, fearing
mob violence, rushed from the altar and
out through the parsonage way. He was
secreted for several hours by personal
friends, who feared the excited people
would use him roughly if they laid hands
on him
