GOT THEIR CHILD BACK.
The Baran Family in Possession

The Baran Family in Possession of
Their Young Hopeful Again.
hearing of the Baran- Brown habeas
corpus case was had before Judge Ferriil
yesterday afternoon. The principals In the
case were Daniel and Amalie Baran, parents,
and Charles and Jessie Brown, custodians
of child. Several of the witnesses sworn
were Hungarians, who spoke German. They
were not able TO testify in English, and upon
consent of counsel on both sides Clerk
Keilbach was sworn in as the interpreter.
The evidence of Mrs. Jessie Brown was that
she was to have the child forever, all claim
TO it being relinquished by the parents.
Mrs. Baran denied this statement absolutely
and declared that the child was only given
to Mrs. Brown temporarily until her huS-
hand became able to support it. He re-
luctantly gave up the child.
The evidence of Bran was that he is able
now to take care Of and support the child.
He is earning 81 % per day, and sometimes
earns extra wages he and his wife desired,
he said, to regain the possession of their
child from Mrs. Brown, who upon several
requests refused TO give it up, on the ground
that she had maintained and supported it
for fourteen weeks; had clothed it, and had
provided medical attention when the child
was in delicate health. =
Much of the evidence was contradicted
by the principals. Mrs. Brown was willing,
some time before the case was tried, to turn
over the child to its parents. provided they
paid her IS per week for her trouble and
care. Shortly before the trial she wanted
$3.50 paid down. This proposition was
rejected.
The only.recourse left the parents was.aw.
They accordingly entered their writ of
habeas corpus against Charles and Jessie
Brown. The attention of the urt was
occupied several hours IN the trial of the
case. 7. D. Rockwell, Esq, attorney for
Mr.. Brown, ably presented his side, and
Emil Newman, Ed, respo ded, appealing
to the court on behalf of the parents. Judge
Ferrill briefly awarded little Rudolph to

CHATTANOOGA, TENN, July 2T.-Ths
Tradesman has instituted an inquiry
with reference 70 the value OF negro
labor in industrial channels in the
South. The inquiries were sent 10 three
hundred leading Southern manufactur
ers, representing blast furnaces, rolling
mills, miscellaneous iron works, mines,
lumber mills, saw mills, etc. Ths
replies, without n single excep-
tion, show that there is no differ
ence at all between tho pay Of
whites and blacks for tho same class Of
work. Tho manufacturers are practi.
cally unanimous In the opinion that for
common labor in the Southern States
the negro is more efficient and useful
than the whites, and without an except.
Ion they declare themselves we'll satis-
fed with the negro in the factory, and
announce their determination TO con-
tinue him in his place. Many state that
he is making progress In skilled work.
The Tradesman adds that the condition
OF tho negro is constantly improving.
and as an Industrial factor his useful
ness is now recognized by all.
