QUESTION OF SPECIAL SESSION.

The Judiciary Outlook for the May Term
and the Call for Special Session of the
Legislature.
Absence of any reinsurance in regard
TO the improvement in health of certain
members of the State judiciary and the
near approach of the May term 10Th
| proximo), has again aroused serious talk
in official and law circles upon that
question.
There must be majority of the bench
to sit in the oyer and termiuer court.
In addition to the chief justice, Judge
Houston is reported not in the best of
health. In the superior court, Judge
Grub docs not sit.
There are seven capital cases to be
tried and in the superior court there are
260 civil cases, of which rs are marked
for trial, while there is likelihood of
not more than three of them getting
attention simply from the crowding.
Criminals that were indicted at the
previous term have the right to a dis
charge if not tried this term. There is
statute to the effect that when man
is committed to Jail charged with a
capital felony he must be indicted and
tried not later than the second term.
1t Is stated there is movement afoot
in favor of the governor calling a special
session of the Legislature for the pur-
pose of passing a Judiciary pension en-
actment
The belief is that brief three days
session is all that is necessary just sufti-
Gent to transact the Judiciary pension
business.
There isl objection expressed among
some members OF the bar both to special
sessions and to pensioning judges but
even these DIRECTORS concede that in the
present emergency there is nothing else
to do and that it is the only method by
which the bench can be rehabilitated
and the courts continue in the necessary
manner.

revelations were obtained from him. He
admitted his completely in the outrages.
Cbainartin said when questioned that
Ravachol stole from Soissy the cartridges
which he intended TO use in blowing up
the palace of Justice.
The. other Two prisoners tried to excul-
pate themselves. The witnesses were then
called, and their testimony corroborated
all the details of the crimes as set forth in
the indictment.
Rayachol was attired in froclS coat and
dark trousers. He had been freshly
shaved, but. despite this, he looked what
he is, an habtual criminal. During the
proceedings the girl prisoner, Resale
Soubere, frequently bowed her head and
wept bitterly.
Ravachol in an insolent manner adj
mitted his criminal history so far as IL is
known to the police, but he added that If
he was questioned concerning any crime
or which he is suspected ana not accused,
he would not respond.
Judge Cues said: THAT will naturally
be your right, but will ask you this ques-
ton. When you were arrested the sum of
1000 francs was found in your room; was
this money the proceeds of your murder of
the old man at ChamblesYf
Precisely" answered Ravachol, glancing
around az though he was enjoying the
Ohect lne answer produced.
Did you intend to kill the policeman
stationed in front of the police station at
Clichy, the first time you went there to
blow up the building? ?" asked the judge.
Yes" Ravachol responded, 'but my
friends prevented me.n
PARIS, Apri! 27.-The verdict rendered
by the Jury in the cases of Ravachol and
Simon was guilty with extenuating cir.
cumstances." When Judge Cues sentenced
Rsyachol and Simon to penal servitude for
life they shouted, "Vivc la Anarchist"
"Vive Ia Revolution Socialn
The remarkable verdict by the jury occa-
stoned surprise and the ''extenuating cir
cumstances," part of il is accredited to
the fear the jury felt OF the vengeance of
the prisoners friends if they brought in a
verdict condemning the pair to death.
:. The public generally condemn the YER
dict and look upon it as o victory for the
dynamiters. They contrast pusilanim-
ity Of the jury with the fearless conduct
Of the officials. especially NJ. Beaupaire,
the public prosecutor, in performing their
duties. The latter ~ warmly commended,

Laying of the Cornerstone. This After
noon, With Impressive Ceremonies.
Associated Press Dispatch by Special Wiros.
NEW York, April 27.-The first stone
of the great mousoeum which Is TO per-
petuatc the memory of General U. S.
Grant was laid in Riverside Park at Q
o'clock this afternoon, when President
Harrison, in the presence of his cabinet
and thousands Of citizens, laid the gran
lite block upon which is to be built
tomb worthy of the nation and the
nations hero.
The ceremonies were impressive and
the weather favored them. Long before
the hour for the ceremony the park pre-
sented an animated appearance. AS
early as 10 o'clock the little knoll upon
which the monument will stand was
surrounded by thousands of citizens,
and hour after hour the great throng
was augmented.
President Harrison arrived at 100
o'clock. He entered the park and when
the crowd beheld the coach, the chief
magistrate of the nation was given an
ovation. The President was accom-
panied by members of his cabinet and
they all witnessed the ceremony except
Secretary Blaine. Mr.. Blainc's i'll health
was the reason assigned for his absence.
Around the space where the monu-
ment will be reared was arranged an
improvised platform. On this were
clustered the President, Mrs. Grant and
family and the 2,4S7 committeeman,
through whose efforts the fund was
raised. Nearby was another platform
which accommodated 800 members of
the Loyal Legion.
1t was just few minutes before 2
o'clock when the Marine Band made the
air resound with the national air "Hail
TO the Chief" Then the Rev. DR.. John
Hall of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian
Church offered up prayer. General
Horace Porter, president of the Grant
Monument Association addressed the
gathering at length in eulogy of Gen.
Grant.
AT the end of Mr.. Porter's speech the
corner stone was swung into place and
President Harrison placed the first
cement upon it with a trowel made of
gold. Chauncey NJ. Depew then de-
livered the Grafton of the day.
The ceremonies were concluded by the
firing of salute of 81 guns from the
monitor Miantonomah, which lay in the
waters of the Hudson adjacent to the
scene OF the ceremony.

WASHINGTON. April 26.-There was a

sonal encounter between MIR. lsnloe and

Quoting the prosecution of the charges
against the pension commissioner and at

avoid answering the questions which have
