SUPERIOR COURT.
BEFORE JUDGE BoNNEY.

BEFORE JUDGE BONNEY.
SATURDAY.-FTank Stanwood VS.. John
The plaintiff, in February, 1890, was the
owner of the fishing schooner Midnight"
of Gloucester, Mass, commanded by one
jeffrey Gerroir, then on voyage to Georges
that Is. after deducting certain expenses, the
vessel has half and the crew half the fare.
The schooner left the home port in January,
and some tive weeks after the plaintiff wrote
Mr.. Trefethen that If the vessel came to
Portland to sell her fish to see that the check
was made payable to him, Stanwood, as the
captain was stranger to him. The vessel
did run into Portland, and Trefethen bought
the faro Of fish for 5000 46, paying the cap
tain therefor In cash. The captain left for
notifying tSe owner This sut IS to or
that amount, the owner having settled with
the crew.
Mr.. Trefethen acknowledges receiving the
request from Stanwood, but says that when
the captain came in he made him an offer for
the fish. which the captain refused to accept
until he had telegraphed his owner to see If
he couldn't do better In Gloucester; that
later In the day he said he had heard from
the owner, and that he, Trefethen, might
II Stanwood wasn't willing to trust the mas
ter he would come down himself, knowing
the vessel was here disposing of the fare
that the captain was vouched for as an hon.
est man by a friend Trefethen had known
for years. Trefethen claims that when the
captain demanded his pay in cash, as he did
do, he could not, either by law or custom, re-
fuse to pay him; that the custom, both here
and In Gloucester, is to treat with the cap
tain and the captain only, when the vessel is
not in her home port. The case was with
drawn from the jury and goes to the law
court upon report.

The weekly tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1891-1894, 1891-11-21

In looking over democratic timber for
the speakership of the house the Chi
cago Times thus refers to the several
democratic candidates: '.Mr. Bynum of
Indiana, IA very worthy democrat, is
named for the speakership. He halls
from the state capital. On this side of
the Wabash is the representative in con-
gress of the Illinois capital, MIR.
Springer, likewise a worthy democrat.
There are other candidates, Mr.. Mills of
Texas and Mr.. Crisp of Georgia being
the most important. Mr.. Crisp is less
widely known than Mr.. Mills. The
former is a lawyer who has served on the
bench and as a youth was in the confed-
crate service. All have following. 1t is
possible that before the caucus is held
Mr.. Bynum will not be a candidate. He
is a younger member of congress thar
Mr.. Springer, and though bright and
capable has of course less experience fol-
a position in which experience is almost
a sine qua non."
The weekly tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1891-1894, 1891-11-21
NOT IN ERROR.

The Inter Mountain contends that the
TRIBUNE is in error in stating that Mills,
Crisp. Springer, Mcmillan, Hatch and
Bynum, prospective democratic candi-
dates for sneaker Of the house, are all
free coinage men. The TRIGrNE based
it's assertion upon the Votcsof the gentle
men when the question Of free coinage
was under discussion in the house last
winter. The inter Mountain bases its
denial upon Il cold Mr.. Bynum con-
tractrd in Butte. Now as to the record.
When Mr.. Mckinley, on June J, ls9O, re-
ported Il special order providing for the
consideration of the silver bill for two
days when. the previous question was to
be ordered and IA vote taken upon IL, the
above named gentlemen recorded their
votes against the obnoxious gag rcsolu.
ton. But there was where Carter
shonc-in the cloak Don of the house
lodging the vote on the motion. And
he lodged it with these words of Bland
ringing in his ears: "IOu know that a
vote to pass this order gags your W
voices and your own votes Upon this
question and your constituents shall
know it. Now go on record il you dare
Well they went on record. The gen
tlemcn above named voted against the
gag order and Mr.. Carter as already
stated lodged the vote by slSulking in
the cloak room. On June % after the
house silver bill had gone to the senate
and that body had returned a free coin
age bill back to the house, Mr.. Springer
moved that a separate vote be taken up.
on the senate amendments. This mo
ton brought the house Ia a direct vote
on the question of free coinage on the
first amendment. The vote stood, yeas
49,; nays l52. Every democrat but one
of two voted yea. Among them were
Mills, Springer, Crisp, Hatch, Bynun
and Mcmillan. This is the record. Al
these democrats voted for free silver
coinage and the republicans voted
against it. This ought to settle any
doubt as to how these gentlemen stant
upon the silver question. The TRIBUNE
will simply add that neithor Of the gen
tlemen above named is a gold bug.
