General Bragg concluded his argument
late in the afternoon. All his remarks fol-
lowing Spooner were devoted to showing
the court that it lacked jurisdiction to take
cognizance of the case. He cited cases in
Alabama, Rhode Island, Maine, and Mas
sachusetts where substantially the sam2
question is involved as here, and stated
that in each instance the court had refused
to assume jurisdiction, and in the case
from Massachusetts he announced that the
federal supreme court had affirmed the
ruling of the lower court.

Remedy. It's $500 reward fos an
incurable case of Catarrh, no mat

MADISON, Wis, Feb. 11.-Arguments in
the Wisconsin gerrymander case were
completed yesterday by ex-senator J. c.
Spooner, and General T. s. Bragg Tie
court took the case under advisement and
adjourned till Feb. %, when a decision is
expected that will settle the question Of
jurisdiction and of the constitutionality of
the apportionment. If the Democratic
law is declared invalid the Democrats will
bring suit to nullify the last Republican
apportionment on the same grounds.
The Argument Spooner Made.
In the course of his argument ex-senator
Spooner said that there is nothing in the
character of the office held by the secretary
OF state or in the duties the performance
of which the court is enjoined which puts
him beyond the reach of injunction. He
declared that this injunction, if granted,
would not restrain an election nor the
giving and filing of notices of election of
members of senate and assembly 1t will
only restrain the giving Of notices describ-
ing the districts attempted to be created
by the act of last winter. If granted
notices could be given under valid unre-
pealed laws or under new law, should
one be enacted.
