SAYS IT'S An OUTRAGE
The Arrest of Mark Baldwin Condemned by
st. Louis Authorities.

St. Louis Authorities.
TIE action of Won der Ahe in causing the ar
rest of Mark Baldwin in st. Louis is deemed an
outrage even by St. Louis authorities. Here's
what the St Louis Republic says on the matter:
The arrest of Baldwin cannot be considered
IN any other light than an outrage. 1t would
never have been attempted had he been citi-
zen OF ST. Louis. Assistant Prosecuting Attor-
ney Estep is either guilty of oppression IN office
or ne has not sufficient intelligence to discern
when he is being used TOOL. The attempt
TO drag baseball into the Criminal courts when
il has been thrown out of all other courts, will
not be successful The Object of Baldwin's
visit may be considered dIshOnorable. but the
principle involved in his arrest has caused the
overthrow of more than one royal tyrant. If
inducing man to break a civil contract is a
criminal offense, then there would be few men
out Of jail. The boasted liberty that an Amer
lean ciuzen is guaranteed by the Constitution
Is not very sacreGin st. Louis. where the courts
aud lis offices can be used to crafty private
malice"

MRS. ORESTEs CLEyELAND's STOCK.
Fight Over the Shares She Pledged for
Her Husbands Debt.

Fight Over the Shares She Pledged for
Her Husbands Debt.
There was another fight In the Court OF
Chancery this morning over the stock of
the Dixon Crucible Company. Some
time ago, it will be remembered, Mrs.
Cleveland, wife OF Orestes Cleve-
land, began a suit against
E. f. c. Young. receiver of the
Dixon Crucible Company to recover
possession of $50 shares of the stock of
the company. When Mr.. Young was ap-
pointed receiver of the company he found
that Mr.. Cleveland, who was its president.
had overdrawn his account about $50, 600.
Mr.. Cleveland confessed JUDGMENT for this
amount, and Mrs. Cleveland handed over
to the receiver $50 shares of the stock
which she had inherited from the estate
Of her father Joseph Dixon, as collateral.
In her suit for the recovery of the stock
Mrs. Cleveland alleged that she did not
understand that in thus handing over the
stock she was going to lose it, nor did she
action when she allowed it TO be put
up as collateral for her husbands debt.
The Chancellor decided against her and
she appealed. The receiver was empow-
cred under the decision TO proceed TO sell
the stock and the battle this morning
was over a motion of John Linn
counsel for Mrs. Cleveland to stay the
sale until the matter should be disposed
of by the Court of Errors and Appeals.
Governor Bedle opposed the motion,
claiming that as the receiver could OBJ
tain at this time a good price, il was
clearly his duty to sell it now. The Chan
cellor, however, granted the stay, pro-
vided that the case is prepared and
argued at the next term of the Court of
Appeals which will be In March.
