AN OYSTER VICTORY
Complete Defeat Of NarIand In the
Hab,as Corpus Cases.
DECISION TO THIS EFFECT.
Orioie State Dredgsrs Cannos In Future
Operate in Either Pocomoks River
or Pocomeke sound.
Special telegram to the Dispatch)

Special telegram to the Dispatch)
BALTIMORE, MD, September iS-rn
the United States Court here to-day,
Judges Con and Hughes decided that oys-
ter dredgers have no right to take oysters
from the beds of either Pocomoke river
or Pocomoke Sound.
This important decision of the Federal
Court was the result Of three habeas-
corpus cases instituted by counsel EN-
ployed by Maryland to obtain the release
of William L. Marsh. Robert L. Whar-
ton, and Steven Nelson. three citizens Of
the State, who were convicted by the
Accomac County Court of Virginia, of
violating Section 2li7 OF the Virginia code,
which forbids every one. except citi-
zen of that State from dredging In the
waters of Pocomoke Sound.
The habeas-corpus cases were argued
in Richmond by General Bradley T..
Johnson, Attorney-General Poe and
Colonel Thomas $. Hodson. counsel for
Maryland. and Attorney General Scott.
for Virginia.
The result is complete defeat for
Maryland, and the oyster-men OF this
State cannot in future dredge in the
waters of PocOmoke river, nor in the
sound.
MARYLANDS CONTENTION.
IL was claimed by the Maryland lawyers
that the offense having been committed
in Pocomoke Sound. the Virginia courts
could not take cognlzanoe OF them, as an
agreement existed between the States.
by the terms of which the citizens OF
both States were allawei 10 use the waters
of the river and sound for the purpose
OF dredging. The arrests were made az
place near the boundary line which runs
from Smiths to Watkins Point. and the
Maryland attorneys also advanced the
argument that the line between the two
States was doubtful. and that in conse-
quence. the Virginia courts could have no
Jurisdiction over citizen OF Maryland
THE ONLY ARGUMENT.
The counsel made no attack, says the
opinion. on the validity of the Virginia
law prohibiting any alien from dredging
! in her waters. Such validity was admit
| ted, and the sole argument advanced was
that the two States had formed a com
pact.
1t is probable that the case Will be
taken to the Supreme Court of the United
| States.
The effect of the decision will not ht
| felt so much In Baltimore as on the Eas
| tern Shore and especially In Somerset
county, where most OF tho-dredgers who
operated in the Pocomoke grounds live

The Kangaroo Plague.

The kangaroo plague has always been a great nuisance to the Australian squat ters, for on an average these animals consume as much grass as a sheep. It is stated that on sheep run of 60, 900 to 50, 900 acres 10000 kangaroos were killed annually for six consecutive years. and yet their numbers remained very formid- able in the locality. In the colony of South Australia hundreds of thousands of kangaroos are slaughtered annually for their skins and the bonus offered by the authorities. The number of these marsupials in New South Wales in 1889 was estimated to be over 4,O0O, ,OOO, and yet about 500,000 kangaroos and 65O ,O0O wallabies were destroyed in the colony
 n that year.
 A bonus of i6 cents for each kangaroo killed is offered in Australia. Hence the colonists are gradually exterminating these native animals. Over half a mil lion skins are annually shipped to Eng land and large number to North Amer ica to be converted into leather.-Hard- wicke's Science Gossip.

 ''I have come in to thank you both How can 1 repay you for your kindnessi Here is your check, doctor. I have not needed it. find that can lay my hands on enough to pay my creditors"
 "Thank Godr' said Clara fervently.
 ''The sum is less than thought and our resources considerably more. We have been able to do it with ease"
 "With ease" The doctors brow grew clouded, and his manner grew cold. q think, Harold, that you would do better to take this money of mine than to use that which seems to you to be gained with ease"
 ''Thank you, sir. If l borrowed from any one, it would be from you. But my father has this very sum-e5 ,OO0-and, as tell him, I owe him so much that have no compunction about owing him more."
 "No compunction! Surely there are some sacrifices which a son should moi allow his parents to make.'
 Sacrifices! What do you mean?"
 "Is it possible that you do not know how this money has been obtained?"
 ''l give you my word, Dr. Walker, that have no idea. I asked my father, but he refused to tell me-"

 "Then pray don't try" said the widow. .Now run away, admiral, and make your peace with Mrs. Denver am sure if were she it would be long time be- fore should forgive you. As for me, I am going to America when Charles goes. You'll take me so far, won't you, Ida? There is college being built in Denver which is to equip the woman of the future for the struggle of life, and espe- cially for her battle against man. Some months ago the committee offered me 8 responsible situation upon the staff, and have decided now to accept it, for Charles marriage removes the last tie which binds me to England. You will write to me sometimes, my friends, and you will address your letters to Professor Westmacott, Emancipation college, Den- yer. From there shall watch how the glorious struggle goes in conservative old England, and if I am needed you will find me here again fighting ill the fore | front of the fray. Goodhy-but not you, girls. I have still word wish to say to you"
 "Give me your hand, Ida, and yours, Clara" said she when they were alone. "Oh, you naughty little pussies, aren't you ashamed to look me in the face? Did you think-did you really think that was so very blind and could not see your little plot? You did it very well, must say that, and really think that l like you better as you are. But you had all your pains for nothing, you little conspirators, for I give you my word that I had quite made up my mind not to have him."
 And so within few weeks our little ladies from their observatory saw & mighty hustle in The Wilderness when 2-horse carriages came and coachmen with favors to bear away the twos who they themselves ill their cracking silk dresses went across as invited to the big double wedding breakfast which was held in the house of Dr. Walker. Then there were health drinking and tears and laughter and changing of dresses and rice throwing when the carriages drove up again, and two more couples started on that journey which ends only witf life itself.
 Charles Westmacott is now flourish ing ranchman in the western part o Texas, where he and his sweet little wift are the two most popular persons in al that county. Of their aunt they SCI little, but from time to time they see no tices in the papers that there is focul of light in Denver, where mighty thun derbolts are being forged which will on' day bring the dominant sex upon theil knees. The admiral and his wife stil live at No. 1, while Harold and Clar, have taken No. ?, where Dr. Walker con tinues to reside.

 "Good graciousi What do you mean?'
 1t is only right that you should know. That money represents the commission of your fathers pension. He has reduced himself to poverty and intends to go to sea again to earn living"
 sTo sea again! Impossible?'
 Ut is the truth. Charles Westmacott has told Ida. He was with him in the city when he took his poor pension about from dealer to dealer trying to sell it. He succeeded at last. and hence the money"
 "He has sold his pension" !" cried Harold with his hands to his face. My dear old dad has sold his pension" He rushed from the room and burst wildly into the presence of his parents once more. "l cannot take it, father" he cried. "Bet' ter bankruptcy than that. Oh, if I had only known your plan. We must have back the pension. Oh, mother, mother, how could you think me capable of such selfishness? Give me the chsck, dad, and I will see this man tonight, for would sooner die like dog in the ditch than touch penny of this money"
