Judge Macy spent a part Of the day in the
district court yesterday in calling up some OF
the cases that have been encumbering the
docket for a long time past, and which have
been allowed to drag along, year after year,
without coming to trial, on account of the
failure Of the attorneys to prepare. This
work was commenced by Judge Deemer last
term, and was carried out by Judge Macy at
the opening of the present term. Yesterday
he reduced the calendar by about twenty-five
or thirty more cases, saying as he did SO
that he hoped the attorneys would learn soon
that they must get ready for trial or else let
their cases go by the board. One difficulty
in sweeping the cases thus bodily from the
calendar is in relation to the question of
fees. AS the cases never come to trial, the
officers of court have to lose their fees for
services performed, This prospect is not
very gratifying to the officers, but no way
out of it has yet been discovered,

shed Out by the Storm.

The storm Of Friday night did considerable
damage, in a mild sort Of way, among the
glens and unpaved streets or the city. AL
most every paved street in the eastern part
OF the city suffered to a greater or less extent.
The water poured down from all the glens IN
torrents, and the results could be seen in the
piles of earth, several inches deep, which lay
along Broadway and Washington avenue,
where it had been left by the floor. Graham
avenue was one OF the worst streets in the
city yesterday. a large hole was
washed in the Sidewalk on South
First street liz front of the residence of A. G..
Graham, and a large culvert was washed
completely out on upper Pierce street. Sim
liar results Of the storm could be seen all
over the city. Yesterday morning, after the
rain had been falling steadily all night, the
streets were lmost blockaded with standin g
water, ana In some instances motormen had
to get off their trains and fish around in the
water for their switches, instead of handling
them from their platform, as usual.

RAILROIDERS IN SESSION.
Meeting of the National Brotherhood

GALEsBuRG, ILL.,, Oct. 3.-The first surprise
of the delegates assembled to attend the ma

way Tralnmen was sprung tonight and is the
answer of the defendants, j. d. Cuthrldge,
j. B. Gibbons and S. G. Young Of the new
new board of trustees, to the injunction
bill filed two weeks ago by the old board.
This answer holds that the old board had a
the ola members were legally deposed for
sufficient cause and the new ones legally
chosen and entitled to the Off &c until the
convention acts. The defendants deny that
they intended any injury, but aver that in
assuming the duties of the office they were
only seeking to forward the prosperity of the
brotherhood. They deny that they are in
collision with Sheehan or Wilkinson. They
aver that by the Injunction bill they have
been ~wrongfully drawn into the controversy
between the compliments and Wilkinson, a
controversy in which, prior to the suit, they
had taken no part, and that their appoint
ment was Without their knowledge or seeking.
The answer charges that the complainants did
not seriously strike for relief in the %injunc-
tion case filed prior to the June term
of court, but allowed it to go over in order to
vent their personal hostility toward certain
of ~ grand lodge officers at the expense of
tbs brotherhood, and that their bill lately
filed was also not for vindication, but to in
jlre the brotherhood by this attempted eXng-
geratlon of their personal controversy with
the grand master. The answer states that
j. G. Wyatt, one Of the new members, has
resigned.
Grand Chief Conductor Z. L. Clark of the
order of Railway Conductors arrived tonight
and Grand Master Sargent of the Brother
hood OF Railway Firemen is expected. 1t is
believed that their mission is an important
one and relates to federation matters.

Please Him.

DUBLIN, Oct. 3-The United Ireland today
publishes an interview with Mr.. Parnell in
which he commended that Mr.. Gladstone in
devoting three-tifths of his speech to other
subjects, although he formally declared he
must leave everything but the question of
home rule to younger men, proved that he
followed the Swing round'' of the liberal
party. IL was true that he claimed ireland
should control the police force in that coun-
try, but that did not mean that tho constabu-
larry, which he desired, should be disbanded.
Therefore on that subject he was in the same
position as in lSS6-in the county council and
police side by side, while the imperial gov
eminent continued the constabulary. This
Mr.. Parnell declared would be a severe dis
appointment for the seccders.
