A CELEBRATED CASE.
The Famous Goldman VIII Set Aside
Another Contest.


Another Contest.
Boston, Jan. THE full bench of the
supreme court gave decision in the famous
Goldman win case, affirming the decree of the
lower court in setting aside the win made by
J. Amory Goldman in 1880 on the ground Of
undue influence on the part of Mrs. KimbalI
By his win Mr. Goldman left the bulk of
great estate to Mrs KimbaIl, and the un-
savory evidence of the sensational letters
that passed between Goldman and Mrs KIM
ball furnished the sensation of the day when
the case was tried in the lower court on the
contest of Mrs. Goldman and her daughter
This decision permanently disposes OF this
win and codiciI Of 1855, and the Iegatees
under it lose their bequests But it is stated
that there ara previous wills in existence, one
Of which win now be presented for probate
The one that win be produced, it is said, was
made in 1870, and IS not more liberal to Mrs
Goldman than was the one now set aside.

THE SITUATION IN NEW
YORK.

The full report, given in another col
umn, Of the meeting held by the reor-
ganized American Section Of New York
makes it unnecessary for us to dwell at
greater length upon the position which
the delegates of this city will take in the
Chicago convention, or upon the various
matters of importance which they are
instructed to press upon its careful con.
sideration. We shall simply observe
that for all practical purposes the party
in New York is now a unit, and ready to
do better work than it has ever done.
The opposition is insignificant in mum
bers and absolutely without influence.
Moreover, by completely solating itself
from the party-by actually casting it.
self out of the party-it has lost the
power of disturbance which it would
otherwise have continued to possess
The earnestness and devotion of New
York Socialists, and their ability to per
form any task that is not preposter,
ously beyond the forces and means of
an equal number of wage workers, have
been illustrated in striking manner by
their self.imposed sacrifices during the
past few weeks. Labor, time and money
have been freely given for the support
of the party organs, other necessities of
many kinds have been met, and large
delegation is sent to Chicago.
This timely display of energy is al,
ready bearing good fruit. Men who had
dropped away in disgust are coming
back with enthusiasm, and we can safely
predict that the American Section, in
particular, will soon find itself many
times stronger in membership and intel
lect than it ever was.
Let the convention do its duty as well
as the New York Socialists have done
theirs, and means will quickly be de-
vised to carry on a comprehensive,
widespread agitation. Then will the
wage-workeEs of America realize at
last that the Socialist Labor party is
their true friend, their only friend, and
that Socialism is their only hope.

For twenty years and at no small
cost the organized labor of this State
fought against the transformation of
our prisons into "scab" manufactures.
AT last law was passed, but in vain.
The system is being tried again in the
Kings County Penitentiary. Strength
ened in their opposition TO the law by
the Attorney Generals opinion that the
use of steam power is not an infraction
of it, the Commissioners, who have al
ready hired out forty convicts to a
maker of government mail bags, are
preparing to parcel out further gangs of
prisoners to other manufacturers, with
whom they have opened negotiations.
No good law will ever be passed, and
none will ever be enforced when
passed, until Labor itself legislates and
executes

THE WAR AGAINST TRUSTS.

We are not aware that the judicial .
decision rendered in this State some |
time ago against the Sugar Trust has |
in any respect affected this particular
trust, or the trust system in general,
That all attempts Of our politically con.
sttuted authorities to deal with the
natural effects of capitalism must re.
suit in ridiculous failures, has long
seemed to us "as plain as pikestah,"
even if these attempts, in the present
state of political corruption, could be
made honestly. The trusts, or any
form which they may assume in the
future, being the natural and inevitable
outgrowth of our economic conditions,
will live and develop, defyiug laws and
lawyers, so long as the trunk from
which they spring shall remain rooted
in our fundamental institutions. We
cannot deal politically with them but by
politically uproOting the capitalist sys-
tenn itself
A more practical illustration of this
truth than has yet been given is likely
to be soon afforded in Missouri, where a
stringent law was passed against trusts.
The law declares it to be conspiracy,
punishable by fine and imprisonment,
to enter into any trust or combination
to regulate or fix the price or quantity
of any article, commodity or merchan-
disc to be manufactured, mined, pro-
duced or sold in the State. 1t also pro-
hibits corporations from owning or is
suing trust certificates, and declares
void contracts in violation OF the law.
The Secretary of State of Missouri,
after some months of preparation, has
now entered upon the task of enforcing
this statute. With this end in view, he
has addressed circular to officers Of
corporations throughout the State, re-
questlng them to inform him, under
oath, whether, since the passage Of the
act, the corporations with which they
are connected have merged all or any
part of their business or interest in or
with any trust, combination or associa-
| ton such as is described in the law.
Considerable interest has been awak-
ened by this action of the Missouri Off
cial But we make bold to predict that
the trusts will find hundred legal ways
OF defeating the purpose of the law.
We may go much further and say
frankly that any State which would be
successful in devising means for the
Punishment of trusts from its territory,
and in prohibiting outside trusts from
carrying on their operations within its
boundaries, would soon find itself
boycotted by capital, while its indus
tries, conducted on small scale upon
principles no longer adapted to the re.
quirements of modern capitalism, would
soon be crushed out of existence by
competition with their mammoth rivals
We need not say, however, that We
would welcome such an occurrence il
it had the effect of awakening the PEG
pie of that State to the futility of any
attempt to maintain the old individual
istic system of production, and if they
should therefore conclude to oppose tt
the trusts the State itself, transformed
into an agency of cooperation.

The recent meeting held by the aboli-
tionists of New England to commemo.
rate their achievements is ridiculed by
the Southern papers in a novel way.
New England, they say, is an instance
of the engineer hoisted on his own pc
tard. The South, with the cheap labor
of its wage slaves, will in the future do
its own manufacturing, and in some
branches Of industry can already under
sell the North. This is bitter sarcasm,
yet quite to the point. Wage slavery is
more profitable to the Southern auto
Gratis of our day than chatte slavery
ever was to their fathers. 1t is as great
a menace TO civilization, and must be
swept away. The abolitionists can
boast of no achievement so long as
slavery exists in any form.

As the custom is when new man comes

was invited to dine with the celebrated
Clover Club in Philadelphia. He hesitated
clubs custom of demanding a speech from
a guest, and the eorallary habit they had
of guying speaker. 1t is said that Alr.
Arkell contided his doubts to the great
caricaturist of Judge. Mr.. Gillian and the
Clubs benevolent custom could be kept in
check. Mr.. Gillian advised MIR. Arkell to
go to the dinner, and to take with him
horse-pistol of antique type and large size.
Mr.. Arkell took in the posi- bilities in sight
and bought the largest horse-pistol he
could find in New York.
He couldn't carry the pistol in any of his
pockets-it measured nearly yard. But
he concealed it inside the neither garments
In due time, after the dispatch of the solids
and liquids Of the banquet, Mr.. Arkell was
called npOn to speak. He arose quietly and
began: Gentlemen of the -" then such
a clamor arose on all sides that he couldn't
surprise at first, and then, as the hooting
and bowling grew louder, anger. He looked
Indignantly from one gentleman to another,
stretched out his hands to the chairman,
but all in vain.
The next thing Mr.. Arkell did was to tear
off his dress coat. push his chair back, and
with both hands drag from its hiding place
the immense horse-pistol. With an air of
wild anger he pointed the huge weapon at
the presidents head, and appeared to be
taking careful and deliberate aim.
The gentlemen of the Glover Club did not
see the joke in this and rushed upon him,
when he laid the pistol down, remarking
Its not loaded-but, gentlemen, Pm going

feeling certain that it was his
