CHICAGO, Aug. 81. = A sensational
scene was-eEacted in court today when
Judges Goggin, Dune and BrentaDo
attempted tn decide whether the injunc-
ton should stand restraining the
worlds fair directors from closing the
exposition gates on Sunday. 1t was
understood beforehand that the judicial
trio were divided as to the course to be
pursued, Judges Dunno and Brentano
holding that the Injunction should be
dissolved. while Judge Goggin's held
exactly the contrary. Judge Goggin is
the one before whom the motion to dis
solve was made. Judges Brentano and
Dunno we're invited by him to sit on the
bench, the three to hear the case jointly,
i'll view of the importance of the issues
at stake.
Before either of his colleagues could

when court opened today, Judge Goggin
promptly forestalled them with an I'M
precedented move. He notified the
clerk to enter an order to continue the
case for sixty DAYS. Judge Dunno, to
whom reading of the majority opinion
had been entrusted. insisted OH his right
TO do SO. He read the opinion and
Judge Goggin renewed his attempt to
grant a continuance.
EX-Judge Nervan, representing the
Exposition company, addressed the
court, referring to the attempted con-
tinuance as judicial anarchy" Judges
Brentano and Dunno induced Judge
Goggin to leave the bench, and private
conference was held by the
Three Judges.
After the conference Judges Brentano
and Dunno returned to the bench and
announced that Judge Goggin no longer
desired them to sit with him. They
thereupOn retired with considerable
suppressed feeling, apparently leaving
Judge Goggin to himself. Judge Cog
gin then entered an order everything
the motion to dissolve and refused eX-
Judge Nervan'S request to set date
for hearing a motion to vacate that
order. The scene in court was exciting
| in the extreme. Attorneys stood upon
| chairs and crowded about the bar eager
| to catch every word. Amidst all of the
| confusion, with bailiffS loudly pounding
| the bench in vain effort TO restore
order. Judge GOggin insisted thaa his
minute clerk should enter the Or
der in conformity with his yer-
bal opinion, and this was done. The
order denies the motion TO dissolve
the injunction. No record was made to
correspond with the decisions of Judges
Dunno and Brentano, and, as result,
| the only order now standing III the case
permits the gates of the exposition to
remain open on Sundays. If Judge
GOggin's remarkable siXty-days contin-
uance holds good, the worlds fair will
be at all end before it can be finally set
| tied by law whether or not the eXpoSi-
ton should or should not be open on
| Sunday.
Judge Goggin made this statement in
explanation of his action:
| Il nave respect for the chief justice
of the United States and good deal of
| respect for
! Judge Stein.
! who granted the injunction. To set
aside all order granting an injunction in
this case WOULD cause the people OF LnlS
state to lose confidence i'll Its judiciary"
Judge Goggin, in the course of long
address, which the spectators it is de-
clared were frequently unable to con-
meet with the case i'll the slightest
| degree, said that the lawyers were try
ing TO force on the court old English
law, that acts OF the Legislature were
| poweress to turn over to a corporation
| LAND which had been purchased by the
| people Tor specific park purposes. lie
added that there were tWenty-four IA il
| roads running into jackson park now,
! and that the park is ruined.
| 1t is denied that Judge GOggin was
under the influence of liquor. He Is
said to have declared in private for
| several days past that ne would enter
an order that would defeat the dissolu-
| ton of the injunction, and that would
| prevent the people being robbed OF that
| Tor which they had paid.
Secretary Dickinson, of the national
| commission. received from Secretary Of
| the Treasury Carlisle today telegram
| requesting him to increase the amount
| of his bond as
Disbursiu2 Officer
| at the fair from $25.00O to $4,000. Mr..
| Carlisle's telegram also said that consid-
cradle complaint had reached his office
about the delay in paying the vouchers
| of foreign and domestic judges. Secre-
tary Dickinson has received only three
drafts from Washington for the pay
ment of judges, one for 10000, one for
$4,000. and the other for $1,000. The
first amount was paid out in two days,
the second in one and the last in two
hours. The delay, it is said, has been
i'll getting money from Washington, and
not in disbursing it here Secretary
Dickinson will increase his bond TO the
amount asked, and then larger sums of
money can be sent and payment of
missions to the fair since May
have passed the 10000, COO
mark. The paid attendance for

that of any previous month by over

August. not including today. as given
out by the department of admissions, is

day was about 100000. If these figures
prove to be accurate the total for the
month, according to official reports, will
be 3,522, Ala, and the grand total since
the opening Of the fair will be- close to
10,300,000. The total paid attendance
for May was 1,O5O.037; for June, 1875
lib: for July, 2,76l, 263.
