IMPORTANT TO NEWSPAPERS
They Can Print Verdicts and
Judgments in Michigan.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Nov. The
supreme court of Michigan in handing
down a decision in the case of Elizabeth
X. Sherwood, VS.. Chicago d " est Michi-
gan road decided a point of great
interest to newspapers. During the
second trial Of the case in the lower
court the Grand Rapids papers pub
lished the fact that a verdict Of $4,000
had been given in the first trial. Coun-
sci for the defense moved to have the
publishers fined for contempt. The mo-
ton was denied and the trial resulted in a
$4,000 verdict. which the supreme court
atfrms. In its decision the court saws:
defendants counsel insist that this
publication was prejudicial, and es-
pecially in view of the fact that the YER
dict in the present case was larger than
IN the former. This rule, if established.
would render incompetent all who knew
the amount Of the former verdict. In
telligent men, who are the most compe-
tent jurors, are 1 sually readers OF news
papers. Newspapers nave the right to
publish verdicts and judgments ren-
dered ar the time of trial. No violation
Of law is committed in so doing. nor
viii the reading of them by Jurors rem
der them incompetent.

DR.. Wells Tells Why He Came to
Minneapolis and Plymouth
Church.
Yesterday the congregation Of Plym-
outh church took the first good long
look at the new pastor, Rev. DR.. George
II. Wells. Some Of them had heard
him preach before, and a good many
had seen him at the installation
ceremony last Friday evening. But they
had not seen him as the pastor OF plym-
Outh church. They attended the serv-
ices with all the more interest. Last
evening, by way Of Introducing himself
to his new congregation, the pastor spoke
on why Have Come to MINNEAPOLIS .
Dr. Wells is an effective pulpit speaker.
Not very tall. his frame is compact. At
4 distance he looks not unlike, in face
and feature. what President NOr.hroD
VIII be when he is older and a tritie
grayer. DR.. Wells has a good voice and
handles it well, but he has none Of the
tricks Of OTatOry affected by some Of
the local preachers. he is not artificial
IN his discourse either. He gives every
member OF congregation the impress
sOn that he las sat down for quiet
tete-a-tete with that one. His delivery
Is quiet and his gestures few. but
effective. lie seems destined 10 take
rank among the best preachers of the
city. Last night DR.. Wells gave as his
reason for coming TO Minneapolis the
influence OF his ambition. He cautioned
his people that it was not worldly am
bltlon. but desire Tor greater Opportu-
mites Tor working in the vineyard Of
The Lord.

that of a colored man Of unusual
size. In life the man must have been

well dressed when he went into the

No books, no papers, 10 initials

LONDON, Nov. 1.-At o'clock this
morning some passers by observed that
the top floor Of the Prince Of Wales
residence was on fire. An alarm bell
was promptly rung and soon people
were fastening to the scene from
all parts Of the neighbOThOOd and the
greatest excitement prevailed. An hour
later the whole upper part of the
building was in flames, and in few
minutes the roof collapsed with a
tremendous crash. The reflection
of the flames was visible several miles
around. Several fire brigades were on
the scene, and were assisted by humid
reds Of volunteers. including an engine
company, sent by the Great Eastern
Railway company by special train.
The fire WAS got under control by II
O'Clock. In the meantime ali the valua-

been removed to the lawn. The sec
Old and third floors Of the
building were Quilted and their
contents destroyed. The lower rooms
were greatly damaged by wafer. The
damage Is estimated at $4,000.
The Prince of Wales and his
family were absent at the time,
but were kept constantly advised
as to the progress Of the fire. The prince
will come home tomorrow. The serv-
ants were preparing the house for the
arrival Of the family. and it is supposed
that the fire was caused by a spark from

A MAN DUCK.
The Peculiar Deformity Of a Pa.
tient in Philadelphia.

Clc1I IN Philadelphia.
Philadelphia Record.
A remarkable operation has Just been
completed al the PENNSYLVANIA hospital
in the case of Pedro Galan, Mexican
sailor lad, to whom nature has given
fingers and toes Joined by a web similar
to that of duck.
Galan Is about eighteen years of age.
and last winter he arrived at this port
as a cabin boy. afflicted with his curious
defCrmlty. At the time he suffered from
pneumonia. and became at once an OBJ
Ject OF interest 30 the hospital doctors.
1t was noticed that he had six fingers or
each hand, Joined by a web. and seven
toes on his right foot and six toes Oh his
left foot. Joined by a web.
The nails OF Ga4au'S toes are decid-
edly peculiar, and at first sight he ap-
pears TO have three distinct nails. as
the nails OF his toes have three ridges
HIS large toe on each foot is about two
and half inches in width.
Such was the strange patient that en-
listed the sympathies Of the doctors.
Galan was the first 10 speak Of his be-
cUliarity, and lie requested that he
might be operated upon. His left hand
was operated on in July last, and then
Galan Dlucklly requested that his right
nand could be attended to.
Or. Morton Went to work on the pa
tents right hand. and on "Wednesday
cut the web between the fingers and
then Sewed UP the ragged edges of the
web. 1t has not been determined 10
operate upon Galan's feet at present.
and probably when he does leave the
hospital his feet Will remain in what
assuredly Is their natural condition.
Galan Will remain at the hospital some
time yet. and is a handy man In the
wards. In appearance he resembles an
Indian. and is very much pleased with
his life in Pennsylvania so far. Al
ready photographs have been taken Of
his feet, and the pictures have been
viewed with interest bv the medical
men 10 whom they have been submitted.

CORK. Nov. l.-Parnellite and anti
Parnellite meetings to-day were again
divided by large force OF police. New
ertheless the Parnellites managed to
throw a good many stones over the
heads Of the police at hIr. O'Brien's
meeting. The McCarthyites replied
with similar weapons and a serious con-
fIct followed. The police were utterly
unable to keep order, many persons
being injured in the scTimmage. Earlier
in the day the attack was made on a
band OF music in O'COnnell street The
instruments of the musicians were
smashed and a number of persons
were injured. The Parnellites
marched in procession, an Ameri-
can flag and a portrait of
Mr. PaTnell being carried al the
head of their line. Mr.. Redmond. the
PaTnelllte parliamentary candidate. in
his speech to-day declared it i'm
possible Tor Dillon and O'Brien TO
be Independent. Gladstone was their
master in England, and Tim Healy
their master in Ireland. During the
meeting Mr.. Redmond was presented
with an enormous shillalagh. Both
meetings were largely attended. Much
rOwdyism was manifested at various
times 10y rOughs, who even attacked
women and children.
As showing the seriousness of the
outbreaks here recently. it may be
stated that 10 fewer than 325 cases
were treated at the different hospitals
and inhrmaries in this city during the
election riots. There were four cases
treated Yesterday.

denied absolutely that the ParneIlites
