THE BoTD-TuAYER CASE.
Not Decided I'm the Supreme Court Today
N Curious Coincidence.


Curious Coincidence.
The Boyd-Thayer case. involving the ques-
ton of the citizenship of Boyd, and as conse-
of governor Of Nebraska, to which
United States Supreme Court today. An in
quiry into the matter developed the fact that
only eight justices sat in the hearing of
tho case, Justice Bradley being absent
on account Of illness A premature an
nounccment that the court had decided the
case IN favor of Boyd by vote of to3 cannot
be correct, therefore, SO far as respects the ma
iority by which the decision was reached.
The justices, Of course, will say nothing
whatever rs to the case in advance of the an
noancement from the bench of their
decision. curious coincidence In
connection with the publication i'll advance
of what the decision OF the court would be and
respective number OF justices in favor OF Boyd
and in favor Of Thayer happened in the court
today.
The case of the Northern Pacific Railroad
attorney OF Yakima county, Washington, was
decided today by the majority an
nounced as tho standing of the justices
in the Boyd-Thayer case. In this case Tho
court reversed the decision of the state
the result if Mr.. Boyd wins his
suit. In the Boyd announcement two Of the
members of the minority were said TO
be republicans and one democrat. In
the Yakima City case today two justices
are cpublicans-namely, Brewer and
Harlan-and one democrat namely,
Justice Field. Whether or not some
chance utterance with respect to this
case was overheard and mistaken for an
announcement OF the Nebraska gove-norslip
contest will, perhaps, never be known, as the
justices consider It violation OF the Off
cial proprieties TO speak on such
matter, and any one giving out news which is
TO be an inviolable secret until Off
cially proclaimed from the bench naturally
would not wish to be known as the author.

The Snow Comes Mt Inst.

1t tried to snow yesterday. Occasionally
there was an instant when the air seemed well
filed with flakes that scurried along before the
wind. but there was never enough to whiten
the ground. This afternoon, however. about
l o'clock. real snow storm, the first OF the
season, SGT in, ard in half an hour the ground
pect Of its melting. The snow was especially
lard on horses. The car horses on the avenue
slipped badly on the asphalt, with which the
space between tracks is now paved. Many of
the car horses and many other horses had bad
Tells and some were seriously injured.
The animals have no footing on tho concrete.
and as consequence several animals went
down and stayed down for quite while.

Tho Wholesale Market SQUARE.

Friday last was the day set by the Commits
sioners for the attorney Of the District to enter
and take possession of the wholesale market
square, on which there has been SO much dis
cussion.
1t will be recalled that on the l4th day OF
last October the Commissioners, sitting Is q
board, ordered:
That the Washington Market Company shall,
on or before the lst day of January, 1892.
vacate the open space at the intersection Of
Ohio and Louisiana avenues with 10th and 18th
streets. and the attorney of the District of Co
lumbia will prepare a form OF notice to be
served upon said company"
At the meeting OF the board Saturday the
subject was called up for disc ussion.
Assistant Attorney s. L. Thomas was sent for
and explained that the failure of the District
to take possession was due TO the fact that the
market company had prepared motion for IN
injunction restraining the Commissioners. and
wanted a day or SO to submit it TO the directors
OF the company before gong to court. In view
OF this he thought it would be well to give
them day or so grace.
This was agreed to.

DEPOslTING THE GARBAGE.
A Complaint ns to the Action OF the Present
Contractors.

In q letter to the Commissioners today Mr..
John Scriyener calls attention TO the manner in
which the present contractor foc tine removal
OF garbage is disposing Of it. He says, as he
understands it, the specifications require the
contractor to remove the garbage outside the
District lines. He says that since the contract
went into effect the contractor has
failed to remove any part of the gar
base outside of the District. Furthermore,
that lie is violating the terms Of his contract
by distributing the garbage along the shore Of
the Potomac river in the vicinity of Gies3oro
Ibis, he thinks, may prove unwLoiesome to
the people residing in this vicinity. and its
continuance may be the cause of sickness.
The Commissioners have ordered careful
investigation of the facts

Bert Sly's Identification Absolute.

Adelbert Sly, the alleged Glendale train rob-
Der, has been doubly identified as having con-
nection with the now famous robbery. Sales
man Jacob Gradawohi Of ST. Louis furniture
house on confronting the prisoner positively
declared that Sly was one OF the men to whom
he sold the furniture of the Swan avenue house.
wherein the detectives found the clues by which
the gang OF thieves were traced.
About half al hour later Sly met a more
dangerous man, no less than an Adams EXPRESS
messenger, Mulrennnn. who was in charge of
the express car robbed November 80. and who
arrived in st Louis Friday night for the our
pose OF being brought face to face with Sly.
For the first time since arrested Sly showed
signs OF nervousness as he caught sight of Null
renuan, bat he resolutely denied ever having
seen the messenger before. Then Messenger
Mulrennan stated that Sly was one of the men
that robbed the express car when the Frisco
train was held up near Glendale and had taken
the leading part in the robbery. Sly, who had
done the threatening, had placed a pistol at
Muirennan's head and had taken the watch
from him. He had directed all operations in
the car.
The engineer and fireman Of the train which
was robbed were at the four courts Saturday
afternoon. and immediately picked Sly out OF a
crowd Of five men % the man who was on the
tender Of the engine the night Of the robbery.
