Davidson, who then sold it to Charles J.

tracted to convey the land to r. P.

I The judgment of Ruden against Tur-
rell, upon which the execution issued
and under which the sale to Mrs. Berry
hill was made, was docketed at 2 p. m.
Oct. 3, 1883, five hours after the filing of
the contract for sale of the land from
PTurrell to Lewis. 1t is held that Tur-
relrs deed related back to the time of
the contract for sale of the land to
Lewis. The Judgment, therefore,
never became lien on the land SUI
perior to the equitable title OF Lewis.
There being no apparent fraud, the
title of Lewis must prevail.

Judge, and I am advised the plaintiff
intends to appeal the case to the
supreme court. No fears are enter
tanned on our part of a reversal OF the
rulings of the district court.
The warmly contested suits OF A. b.
Wilgus and j. M. Welsch against the
city involved substantially the same
questions; the verdicts rendered were
just and gratifying.
One of the most important actions
tried during the period covered by this
report was that OF Kuschke against the
city. The court was there asked to de-
clare invalid certain condemnation pro-
ceedings, because of alleged Irregular
tiles in the proceedings and defects in
our charter. Judge Otis decided against
the plaintiff, Judge Kerr concurring III
the opinion. The plaintiff moved for a
new trial, which was refused, and has
appealed to the supreme court. Seven
suits of the same character are depend
ant on the decision in this case. [ am
confident Judge Otis decision will be
sustained by the higher court.
You will find attached to this report a
statement showing the disposition OF all
suits brought for the recovery of money
and determined during the last six
months.
The total amount claimed in these
seventeen az suits was the large sum
of one hundred and thirty-nine thous-
and two hundred and twenty-four
(S139. 224OO) dollars, and the total
amount recovered was the sum of eight
hundred and eighty seven and 79-10o
(SSS7. 80 dollars. being but little in ex-
cess of one-half per cent of the amounts
sued for. results that can hardly be ex-
pected to supply much encouragement
for increased litigation against the city.
Unjust avail myself of this oppor-
tunity to express to the aldermen and
all members of the city government
my appreciation and gratitude for the
assistance, courtesy and confidence so
uniformly extended to me. Respect
fully submitted. o. E. HOLMAN,

and Correction.

anu COrroCClOn.
DR.. Vivian, of Alexandria, yesterday
presided at a meeting of the state board
of corrections and charities Commune
cations were received from four counties
requesting advice with reference to the
care of the poor. Wtnona and Morrison
counties want to change their relief
system from county to the township
system. The board advised against the
change. Scott and Wadena proposed to
go back to the township system OF re-
lief, having tried the county system for
three or four years. TIE board
urged them to continue the
county system. Secretary Hart,
in addition to the prison census he has
been taking, proposes to take semi
annual census of paupers. The pauper
census will include all persons who
have received aid of any kind during
the months of June and December. A
resolution was adopted by which the
next legislature is recommended to have
a strong ward erected at Fergus Falls
hospitals. The purpose of such ward
would be the care of insane convicts
and dangerous insane patients.

sary of the triumphal entry of General Me-
nendez, General Melsso Msreial suddenly en-
tered the ball room at about II pm, and
announced on behalf of his chief, General
Ezeta, who had arrived with 600 men from
Santa Anna, revolt against the existing
government, demanding at the same time
the deposition of President Menendez. Az
this junoture General Martinez, commander
of the government forces in the capitol, ap-
peared on the scene and announced that
President Menendez, who was sick
in an upper story of the house, requested
an audience with General Marcial. An alter
cation ensued between Martinez and Marcial,
resulting in the latter being shot and killed.
Ezsta's soldiers thereupon took Martinez
prisoner and captured the barracks, twenty.
three persons being killed. It is asserted
that the president died on the following day
from heart disease, which had been aggra-
waited by the excitement. General Ezeta
was proclaimed provisional president and a
new cabinet was formed, but it has since
been dissolved and General Guirola is for the
present directing the different branches of
the government and administration. Gen.
eral order prevails.
The supreme provisional government de-
cided yesterday to place for the present the
different branches of the administration
under one portfolio, which will be in charge
of General Benjamin Molina Guirela.

TESTING HER SPEED.

A Successful Trial Trip Of the New
Cruiser Philadelphia-A Premium of
Over a Hundred Thousand Dollars
Rsrned.
PHILADELPHIA, June 26.-The official tria7
trip of the United States cruiser Philadel-
phia, which took place over measured
course of Long Island yesterday, was suc-
cessful in every way. She is known to
have attained speed of over nineteen and q
half knots an hour. When the tide resis-
tance 10 determined the figures will be made
greater by from one quarter of knot to
one and quarter knots. The condition of
the elements was not favorable for the
trial. A heavy fog hung over the
ocean and q swift tide was run
ming, bat Notwithstanding these ad~
ve1ss conditions she behaved admirably.
She was under forced draught for nearly five
hours, and not tube nor q rivet was strained
or started. On her northern two-hour run
che made o trife over the required nineteen
knots; on her southern trip she made twenty
knots an hour almost to the second. The
tide retarded her ON the way up, and was
nearly stationary on the return trip, al
though at the start 1t hindered her progress.
The official board gave out her speed during
the four hours she spent ON the course az
| 1851 knots per hour, with additions to be
made subsequently. The premium earned
on these figures IL sos. 400. The premium
on the Baltimore was $108, ALSO.

THE ErTOmBRD MINERS.

Solid Coal struck by the Rescuers-
Hope OF Getting Through the Vein
To-day.
DUNBAR, Pa, June 26.-The rescue party
of miners are in the solid coal which forms
the line between the Nahoning and the Hill
Farm mine. At six o'clock this evening
they had gone seven feet into coal and the
drill hole had been advanced ten feet. The
coal was solid and hard. and up to that time
1t was unnecessary to timber any. II the
coal continues as favorable the men will be
through some time In the early morning
hours. It then all depends ON what they
find ON the other side. If there are no gases
the work of recovery will proceed very rap
idly. If gases are there ID may be several
hours before the fate of the men is known.
For two days twenty men have BEEN cutting
. tunnel from the Ferguson mine to the Hill
Farm mine from another direction than those
at work in the Mahoning mine. Their inten-
lions have been kept very quiet as their plan
was very dangerous. At 10 O'Clock tonight
they reached within two feet of the Hill farm
mine and were stopped by the authorities.
Testing machines were taken into the tunnel,
a drill was forced through into the mine and
bag Of air from the Hill Farm mine was
taken out for test. The hole was then
plugged,
