| Complaint Has Been Filed In the
Against the Consolidated Road and
the Decision of the Complaint VIII
| Settle whether One Corporation
Has the Power to Lease Another
without n Special Act OF the I esIs-
Iature.
BosToN, Sept. ga bill was filed to-
day In the clerks Office of the supreme
court, which when 1t GENES to trial, will
make most interesting case The de-
clsion will settle the question whether or
not two railroad corporations can become
one, or in other words, whether one road
has the power to lease another without a
special act of the legislature, the whole or
any portion of its own road, and provided
they are not connecting lines.
The question to be decided Is whether
the supreme court will ratify the consoli-
dation of the Old Colony and the New
York, New Haven and Hartford roads.
The court is asked to set aside the con-
eolidetion of the New York, New Haven
and Hartford railroad with the Old Colony
railroad, and to require the former to re-
turn to the stockholders of the Old Colony
all the property and leases now held by
the New York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad, which, at the time of consolida-
ton. were the property of the Old Colony.
The bill is brought by the order of R.
Glover of Milton in behslf of himself and
such other holders of the New York, New
Haven and Hartford Railroad company as
may care to join hereafter against the New
York, New Haven and Hartford and the
Old Colony corporations.
In his bill of complaint Mr.. Glover says
that the Old Colony Railroad company is a
Massachusetts corporation; the New York,
New Haven and Hartford is Connecticut
corporation and that he has been for many
years the owner of fifty shares of stock
of the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford company. He declares that the pub
lie statute has been violated and urges that
the New York, New Haven and Hartford
be restrained from paying any further
sumo on account OF rent, dividends or
otherwise in performance of the lease.

PALLAS MAY BE SHOT.

The Barcelona Anarchist Was In
different to His Fate and Declared
That Ike Would DO the Same Thin 9
Over Again-The Decision of the
Court Martial VIII He Announced
To-Day.
BARCELONA, Sept 29-The anarchist,
Pallas, who threw the two bombs at Cap
tain General MARITIME de Campos last Sat
urdsy, was court martialled to- day. He
was brought into court with his hands tied
behind his back, but the president of the
court ordered that the ropes be cut. Pal
las was apparently unconcsrned as to his
fate. His appearance indicated small
amount of intellect. His white hands
showed no trace of manual labor
After the reading of the charge Pallss
declared that he would commit the same
crime hundred times over If he had the
opportunity. He had no accomplish and
was alone in his responsibility for the deed.
He was sorry he had not killed Campos,
whom he had hated ever since the captain
general defeated the republicans in 1874.
Pallas would not make any further state
ment. His insolent behavior when ques-
toned caused the president to have him re-
moved from the room.
Pallas was brought back, however, to
hear the prosecutors address.
When the prosecutor demanded: In the
| name of the outraged society and for the
| sake of civilization that the prisoner be
sentenced to be shot, Pallas said "sgreed."
His counsel appealed for clemency on the
ground that the prisoners mind had been
/ deranged by demoralIzlng literature and
| evil companions. Palas shook his head
decidedly to deny this imputation upon his
sanity.
The court adjourned Immediately after
Pallas' ounsel finished his address, to con-
slider the sentence. The decision probably
will be announced to morrow.
No witnesses were called to-day to test;-
| fly for or against Pallss. His detailed con-
| fession was read. 1t states that he could

ELOQUENT SENATOR MORGAN.

He Makes an Impassioned Address
in Which He Says the Poorest Man
in Alabama Is Entitled to His Com
stitutionaI Right and Will Have it
If He Knows HOW to Give 1t.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-One of the most
impassioned utterances at the present ex-
traordinay session of congress was made
by Senator Morgan of Alabama this after
noon in his address in opposition to the
repeal of the Sherman law. He had been
speaking for an hour or two, when sudden
ly he broke out as follows:
ono man in Office, however high, no
nonopolist invested with powers, however
supreme and extensive, no man, whatever
his powers may be, can either exonerate
me from the discharge of my duty to grant
to the people all their constitutional rights,
nor can any man crowd into silence when
1 choose to speak. This ia an arena in
which 1 have the honor to be one of the
ambassadors of sovereign state, whose
suffrages shall not be taken from her with
out her consent, and where l have the
right of full and free speech. And, al
though 1t may make the ears of charla-
tans sore to listen to me, although my
words may burn them like cinders, yet it
is my duty, here, In the presence of God.
and in this august presenoe-it is my duty
to the state whoss ambassadorisl creden-
tisls hold-to stand here and defend the
constitutional rights of my constituents IS
long as, in my judgment, the defence is
appropriate, requisite and necessary.
Nobody need be astonished at the slug
gishness of the senate or of any part of 1t;
nor suppose because he may think he ought
to have great influence 1, thereupon,
should subordinate myself like a cricket or
mouse and run into hole and conceal
myself. The last man in Alabama, the
poorest niger in Alabama, is entitled to
his constitutional right at my hands, as
