FEDERAL MATTERS,
An Important Land Suit Entered
Other Notes,

Jose Angel Navarro has brought
suit in the United States Circuit
court against the heirs of f. ID. l..
Wicks, for the recovery of one
league of land in Bexar county, sit
luated on the Leon and ROSalillO
. creeks, valued at $4,000. In the
petition Navarro claims that the
hand in mention was granted to
him by the Mexican government
m the year 1888, and that it came
into the possession of f. ID. l..
Wicks through a sale, not warrant
ed. The petition does not state
anything relative to the title of the
land. and as consequence, that is
one of the main features to be de-
cided by the court.

A lawsuit entirely out Of the common
course is reported in Cumberland county,
being one brought by the Maine Central
Railroad company against a Windham
man for trespass. During the recent
blizzard this man had occasion to drive
from Madison Falls to Windham village.
The highway was blocked and hard to
travel, so when he reached the railway
crossing near Madison Falls, seeing that
the Maine Central snowplows had made
fine track, he turned his horse in that
direction and drove up the path Of the
railroad to his destination. This was
very dangerous business, and the man
submitted the company as well as him
self to a big risk. The suit is for $500,
and doubtless is intended as an object

A Corpse Ruins a Holiday.

Mardi Gras was spent in woeful
fashion by peasant who had come up
from village near Melun TO Paris for
day TO witness carnival merrymaking on
the boulevards. He was lunching in
wineshop and recruiting his strength
with a view TO whole afternoon Of
sightseeing when workman entered
the restaurant where he was seated and
asked to be conducted to hospital, as
he had suddenly been taken ill.
At the landlords suggestion the peas
ant generously offered the sick man a
place in the cab he had hired with the
intention of seeing the fete as thoroughly
and as comfortably AS possible. His err
rand of mercy would, he thought. take
him at most half an hour, but during the
journey the workman became worse and
died. At the hospital the unlucky peas
ant was kept waiting an hour and final
ly told that it was impossible to take III
a corpse. He drove of with his lugubri-
GUS charge to the nearest police station.

The enabling act required thai the vote
upon the constitution and separate ar
ticles, should be certified to the presi-
dent OF the United States, who upon be-
ing convinced upon this evidence that
the requirements of the enabling act had
been complied with, was to make proc
lamation accordingly. He did 80, and by
his action he concluded this court and
all before it upon the question of the
%sufficiency of the evidence upon which he
made such proclamation. During all the
time since, congress has given its
tions to proceedings then had; the state
government has been recognized and the
credentials Of the senators and repre-
sentatives have been received and
accepted as valid by congress.
The court is bound by the
action Of the president and has no
power to examine into the facts upon
which his proclamation was founded
it that proclamation be not we'll founded
this court could not exist. The special
session of the legislature which passed
tie prohibition law was duly authorized
not only to elect United States senators,
but to enact any laws then necessary.
The proclamation summoning that legis-
lature, while mentioning the election of
senator only, did not and could not
forbid the performance Of any other
proper legislative functions. On the
question of the validity Of the title of
the prohibition law, this court has al.
ready discussed and settled the point
and no argument is necessary to lndi-
cate that this court will not reverse
itself unless shown better reasons than
have been presented here. The title of
that law expresses it's nature and pur-
poses. The law defines an ofense which
it prohibits and provides penalties for
violation. After the conclusion of the
main arguments, all of the counsel join

A Ravisher's Fate.

DULUTH, May 6.-The first lynching
on the new Mesaba iron range lear this
city occurred today. On Friday an un-
known man entlced two little girls, one
aged 5 and the other 6 years, into the
woods at the village of Mountain Iron,
and criminally assaulted them. As soon
as it was learned tina; the deed had been
committed, word was passed around the
mining camps and work was at once sus-
pended. A party of twelve which first
started in search for the miscreant, was
in less than half an hour augmented by
LOO others. The search was kept up all
night and the brute was discovered
about moo At 100 o'clock arrange
ments were all completed and in the
midst of a band of resolute miners, the
man was half dragged, half carried to an
opening in the woods on the outskirts of
the place and hanged. One of the chill
dren outraged is likely to die.

Railroad Accident.

LAFAYETTE, Ind, May s.-One Of the
most horrible wrecks in the history of
~railroading occurred in this city at los
yesterday morning, the result of which is
ten men are now dead and many more
injured. The accident was caused by
the failure Of the air brakes to work
properly. High bluffs rise on t le west
bank of the Wabash river, opposite this
city, and there is a long and steep grade
at that point. The Inflated train must
have been a mile up the grade from the
river when the engineer discovered that
there was something wrong with the air,
for he began to shrilly whistle for hand
brakes. The speed had by that time IN
creased 80 terrifically, however, that it's
control wa beyond human agency.
With almost lightning-like speed the
monster engine dashed around curves
and across the long bridge, crashing into
the depot building, cutting away a por-
ton of the depot and tralnsheds and
carrying them several hundred feet.
The engine. when it left the track was
followed by the baggage car, two postal
cars and the express car, and piled in
n promiscuous mass.

Some of General Hughes' authorities

and implied that the legislature may in
vest itself with any powers which the
constitution does not forbid. The laws in
question are not he argued, in defiance
OF constitutional enactment, but comply
Herewith by providing a "mode" Of fill
ing vacancies other than that Of direct
appointment by the governor. MI.
Hughes argued at length in relation to
the nature of a vacancy; that the sole
point at issue was whether there was any
vacancy requiring to be flled-and con-
tending that until such time as the sen-
ate. by confirming, should unite With the
governor to make q valid appointment,
the incumbents of the Office retained
their powers 80 that there could be no
vacancy.
The members of the court manifested
much interest in the arguments of u
sci, frequently interposing suggestions
and questions. It is expected that a de-
cision will be rendered early in the
coming week.
