SUMMONS ALL RIGHT.
Mr.. Garrett Must Answer to

NO OTHER WAY TO REACH HIM

Cable That Was to Land at

speciol to the .Jersey citv Mems,


TRENTON, Sept. 90, 1S91.-In the United
States Circuit Court this morning Judge
Green rendered decision in the case Of
William A. Jewett of Orange against
Robert Garrett of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. The amount involved is
three millions Of dollars and the point
decided by the opinion is the question of
summons and 1t is one that has long been
watched with interest by lawyers for
some time. Judge Green declines to set
aside the summons, SO the suit will con-
tinue. Jewett is promoter of various
enterprises. Being backed by an Eng
lish company. he proposed to lay new
cable from England to America. He
contracted with Robert Garrett to make
connections with the Baltimore and Ohio
Telegraph Company at Baltimore
Jewett claims that Garrett agreed to
assist the scheme and he went on with his
enterprise. and when nearly completed
alleges that Robert Garrett withdrew
from the scheme and it collapsed. He
claims damages TO the amount OF 81, ,OOO.>
600. In order to bring suit in this district
1t was necessary to serve Mr.. Garrett
with summons in the State OF New
Jersey.
HOW IT WAS DONE.
Jewett secured through his counsel q
blank summons, and the United States
marshal gave him a blank form for the
appointment of special deputy. who
watched and tracked Garrett. After
long wait he succeeded in serving the
summons on Mr.. Garrett as he was getting
on his private car at Jersey City. His
counsel, A. c. Keasby, appeared for him
and moved to have the summons set
aside, claiming that the law never con-
templated the waylaying of defendant
as in this case, and denounced the whole
proceeding in warm language. Ex-
Secretary Ropeson appeared for Jewett
and contended that nothing illegal had
been done and that it Is the custom of the
clerk and marshal to give blanks.
Judge Green upheld him and declined
to set aside the summons. The law pro-
vides that suits may be brought in the
Federal Court in either the district in
which the plaintiff or the defandant re-
sides. Under that law, a service such as
was made in this case is not unlawful, as
the, defendant could not be reached in
any other way.

A popular color for morning suits is
brown. There are dozens of shades of
that color. The russell browns and the
mingling of gray are the shades that go
off best. Trousers have undergone some
slight alterations as regards shapes since
last year. They are straight and of me-
dunn width. The English style follows
the shape of pegtop somewhat, and is
worn loose at the knees and tight over
the boots. Stripe patterns are, perhaps,
considered better taste than checks.
The frock coat is more fashionable
than ever, and only in few details does
it show anv change in shape. the most
marked feature being the increased
length of the skirts. A frocil coat is con-
sidered to look very elegant on tall men
with good figures, but neither very tall,
thin man nor little stout man finds it
as becoming to the figure rs sack coat.
