of U. S. Supreme Court
Attorneys.

District Attorney Winfield today re
ceived letter from L. d. Oliphant,
Clerk Of the United States Circuit Court,
District Of New Jersey. which concluded
with this paragraph
Charles J. Peshall has never been ad-
mitted to practice In this Court.v
Another letter from James II. McKen-
ney. Clerk Of the Supreme Court Of the
United States al Washington, read as
follows:-
Dear Sir:-In reply to yours OF the 9Th
Inst, would state that l do not find the
name OF Charles J. Peshall on the roll of
attorneys OF this Court"
The question has sbeen raised that the
appeal in Hallinger's case IL informal be-
cause Mr.. PeshaH appeared In court In a
false light That not being legally entit-
void.
A lawyer said IT was surprising that the
wheels OF justice could be blocked IN this
manner. and at the same time commented
on the statute of the United States in a
vigorous manner. He said:--''It is afro
cious. There is no end to it. A man ap-
plies TO judge for writ of habsas cor
pus In case of murder and
for r. is ., refused. sna.., The ,,., demand ID
When the appeal is decided all the law
yer need do Is to go to the same Circuit
Court, ask for another writ of habeas cor
pus, take another appeal, and so on ad
nnitum, and the murderer need never be
punished.
'Mr. Peshall," continued the .lawyer,
cannot be disbarred for such practices.
but licensed Attorney of the Court can
be. l presume that no effort will be
made 10 take the case from the Court
Peshall will have to employ some licensed
attorney to argue the CASE

WEST HOBO KEN DISTURBED.
Water and Gas Companies Tearing up
streets and Leaving Them in a Bad
Condition.

The West Hoboken Town Council is
not on friendly terms with the Hacken-
sack Water Company ana the Hudson
Gas Light Company of Hoboken just at
present. The corporations have dug up
several streets in the town to repair tneir
pipes and the Council believe that they
have no right to do SO without their per-
mission. But the corporations are going
right ahead and laugh at the idea Of
being stopped.
The matter was ventilated at the meet
ing of the Council last Wednesday even
ing. A communication was read from
S. b. Dod. the president of the Gas Light
Company, in reply TO one sent by the
Council. The communication stated that
the company was empowered by the Leg
islature to tear uD streets, and that per
mission from the Council was not neces-
sary. The company claimed that leaks
in main required immediate attention,
and the company could not wait until
permission from the Council was OBJ
tained. Councilman Swartz said that
the Council did not question the right of
the company to tear mp streets in case of
emergency. but he believed that the
company should see that the street was
repaired after they were through He
said that in two notable instances the gas
company had lett streets in wretched
condition. Councilman Ridgeway said
that In cases wnere immediate repairs
were required the Council did not expect
the company to apply for a permit, but
when new pipes were to be laid and
whole street torn up, he thought the
Council ought TO know something
about it.
Charles B. Brush of the Hackensack
Wafer Company, who was also hauled
over the Goals by the Council. stated that
e resolution was passed by the Council In
1881 which gave that corporation power
TO excavate streets without permit
The squabble is In the hands of the
town counsel and counsel for the corpora
tions at present aud an amicable arrange
meat may be arrived at.

Boulanger and BaImaceda.

It is quite possible that the suicide OF
Balmaceda suggested to Boulanger that
method OF getting out Of his troubles.
Balmaceda, starting out under the most
favorable auspices and apparently with
a sincere desire for the good Of the re-
public Of Chill, developed the spirit Of
the military dictator. In his desperate
attempt to subvert government by the
people he was overthrown and driven to
suicide
Boulanger. too, attempted to over
throw government by the people. strik-
ing like viper at the republic that had
made him Like Balmaceda. Boulanger
failed. and took himself by short cut out
Of world that had no more use for
him. Some such winding up as this
will overtake every man who seeks to
crush liberty among the people and put
their necks under the foot of a dictator,
whether he be car. emperor or military
adventurer

Boulanger died several years ago. and
only took advantage Of the death Of
Mime. de Bonnemain as an excuse to get
his corpse out Of sight. All the success
he ever had he owed to the infatuation
Of rich and silly women. Looking at his
portrait the disinterested outsider can
only wonder what there was in him to
make women go down before him as
they did. There is indeed no account
ing for tastes
