AN APPEAL ALLOWED.
The Holden Case Finally Goes to
the Supreme Court.

The Holden Case Finally Goes to
the Supreme Court.
After private consultation in the
Holden case by Justice Miller, of the
United States supreme court; Judge
Nelson, of the district court; Attorney
General Clapp, and Charles G. Wilson,
of Rochester. it was decided that the
United States circuit court would not
render divided opinion in the writ of
habeaS corpus proceedings. 1t was de-
termined that the proper way to take
the case to the supreme court would be
upon decision made by the circuit
court. 1t was also determined that an
appeal would be taken by which every
side was defeated in the proceedings, so
that the state law might be finally adj
Indicated on the constitutional points
raised.
1t was an open secret that the court
was divided in opinion on the points.
1t was also minated that Judge Miller
was of the opinion that the law needed
construction; or, in other words, that
there were some grounds for releasing
Holden on the writ. 1t could not be
learned, however, as to what extent he
went on the points raised, or whether
lie would go further than to hold the
solitary confinement provision illegal.
The court, however. finally agreed to
refuse to discharge the prisoner from
custody. Judge Miller stated that, hav-
ing determined that division of Opin-
ion was not satisfactory from which to
appeal, an order would be entered re-
fuSing to discharge Holden. A tran
script of the papers, Including copy of
that order, could then be certified to the
supreme court and Adhesion had.
The prisoner was not remanded to the
custody of the sheriff, nut the following
was entered:
1t is ordered that said Clifton Holden be
committed to the custody OF John j. Randall
Esq, warden of the states prison at Still
water in said stale, to be there safely kept
and detained pending said appeal, ana until
the further orders of this court.
G. G. Wilson, attorney for Holden,
excepted to the ruling of the court re-
fusing to discharge the prisoner, and
asked that an order be entered granting
an appeal. This motion was granted
and the following order filed:
1t is ordered that the appeal be allowed
without bond or security. and the clerk of
the circuit court is directed 10 send up to the
supreme court of the United States a tran
script of the petition, writ, return and all of
the proceedings.
The court filed no written opinion in
the case and allowed no statement to go
on record expressing tie reasons for re-
fusing to discharge the prisoner. Mr..
Wilson has great confidence in the pros
pect of securing at least an order d.
recting a new trial of his client
There is great interest manifested in
the case by attorneys and people i'll the
vicinity where the offenSe was commit
ted, and the trial of Holden. as the per-
petrator of the deed, took place.

Russia Seizes an Island on the
@s Corean Coast.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 9.-The steam
ship Gaelic arrived this morning from
Hong Kong. The Japan Mail states
that a runlor was prevalent that Russia
had seized an island on the coast of Co
rea and that III. NJ. S. Leander and Sev-
ern were under orders to keep up steam
and be ready to proceed to sea at mo-
ment's notice If required. At Osaka,
Japan, fity-nine people were drowned
June Is during the launching of new
sailing vessel. The occasion excited
considerable interest, and about $50
people crowded ON board the boat. The
owner, Mr.. King, however. became APP
prehensive and ordered 100 of them
ashore. When the launch commenced,
it was ebb tide and as the ropes used in
securing her were too short, the vessel
keeled. The people on board immedi-
ately rushed to the other side, which
had the effect of turning the vessel COM
pletely; over, and those on board were
precipitated into the water. A terrible
scene ensued. Those on shore rendered
every assistance possible, but their eff
forts were generally unavailing. Fifty
five bodies have been recovered, four
persons still missing. About twenty
persons were more or less injured. The
vessel was found to have had her beam
badly damaged. 3tl9

MILWAUKEE, Wis, July 5.-The ses-
sion of the supreme lodge of the Knights
of Pythias this morning was devoted
almost EXCLUSIVELY to routine work, the
only interesting feature being the adop-
ton of the report of the committee on
credentials, which. sustained the claim
of Ohio to three representatives in the
supreme lodge. The committee found
that Ohio had over $4,000 members, and
was, therefore. entitled to another dele
gate. The lodge adjourned at noon
until 8 a. m. tomorrow, when the
election of officers. will take place. It is
generally believed that Supreme Vice
Chancellor Shaw, of Wisconsin, will be
promoted to supreme chancellor. w. w.
Blackwell, of Kentucky, and j. d. King,
of Ontario. are the most prominent cam
didates for supreme vice chancellor.

automatic bilge water pump was given
yesterday. Quite concourse of peo-
pie assembled at the foot of jackson
street. The pump was placed in a barge
80 feet long. IL feet wide and feet deep,
filled with water. which was attached
to the steamer Rnby. Word was given
to cast off the lines and the steamer pro-
ceeded down the river. AS soon as she
got some Roadway the pump commenced
to work and the water ran out through
the bottom of the barge in perfect
whirlpool. Long before she reached
Dayton's Bluff, where the steamer
turned, the barge was clear of water.
The trial was success in every way.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
CINCINNATI, September IA case which is
exciting much attention in medical circles is
that of the 14-year-old son of Mr.. Frank Root,
of Newport, one of the leading residents of
that suburb. The boys perfect recovery has
astounded the medical fraternity. Two months
ago the boy was taken i'll with typhoid fever.
He had contracted the disease at a floating
bathhouse on the Cincinnati side of the Ohio,
through which the dregs from the sewer canal
passed. = While suffering from the fever.
spinal meningitis set in, and for eight weeks
the little Fellow suffered all that human can
suffer and live. For three weeks he was totally
blind, deaf and dumb. When all hope of reeov-
cry had almost gone, and the family physician
had exhausted all of his resources the boys
parents determined to make one more effort
A council Of theAfive leading physicians of Gin
cinnati was helG and as the result of their con-
sultation it was announced that it was impossi-
BILE for the boy to live, but should his life be
spared by miracle, most of his faculties
would be impaired, INCLUDING his mind.
Although not a member of the Catholic
Church, some of his friends who were members,
that prayers for young Roots recovery be
offered up at the celebration of mass at the
Catholic Church. This was done. Since then
a marked improvement has taken place, and
young Root is now on the road to recovery.
His mind is perfectly clear and his hearing and
sicians are astounded at his recovery and state
that it is the only case of the KIND in which
patient suffering from such complication, re-
covered with all of his faculties unlmpaired.

AT THE BAT,

The greenroom scene in "The City Direc.
tory" had special feature not mentioned IN
the programme on Monday night at the Bijon
Theater. Mr.. Paul Potter probably newer
thought of writing an acting part for bat T.
but the federndats got into 1.-THE City Dlret-
tory" In great shape all the same.
Miss Rosa France was just on the verge of a
sentimental ballad when the bat made its bow;
futtering sweep reaching from the border
lights to the top gallery-the longest bow ever
drawn 1t is believed. Miss France is demure
little soubrette with golden hair, who can
dance, sing and act with the very best, but she
had not great deal of inclination to compete
for popular attention with bat-a disagree
able thing, too like a mouse to be popular
with women any way. But the or
chestra, like time and tide, waits
for no man, or soubrette either, and
the opening bars of the song led Miss France
to the footlIghts. She sang-but obi her heart
was otherwhere-it is suspected. in her dainty
little shoes. The two other Rosebuds-Miss
Mayme Kelso and Miss Josie Sadler, isolated
from the rest of the company. were on the left
of the stage. The bats proceedings were To-
tensely interesting to them; and they showed
tremendous courage in staying quite still. So
did Miss France in singing her song clear
through to the end, and even beyond it to an
encore.
The bat circled about the auditorium and
swooped up and down for few minutes and
then went out at the second entrance on the
left side of the stage. Not Psyche Knot or a
single switch had been harmed, but the awful
intensity of the suspense must have tried the
nerves of the Rosebuds and Nanon as they had
never been tried before.
