THE WASHINGTON INQUEST.


WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE supreme
court of the District of Columbia this
morning dismissed Colonel Ainsworth's S
petition for mandamus on two grounds:
First, holding that the deputy coroner is
nor'a legal officer this invaIidates the in
quest as far as held) second, that the
right of person to be present at an in
quest in person or by counsel is discre-
tionary with the coroner, and therefore,
not subject Of mandamus.
In Difference to the decision of the
supreme court of the district that there is
no such officer of the District of Columbia
as deputy coroner, DR.. Shatfer, who has
been conducting the inquest in that sup
posed capacity, Immediately adjourned
the proceedings. The carious point de-
velops thac no dead body has been viewed
by a legally constituted coroner's jury
A dlsbursing clerk Of the war depart
ment states that the salaries of the clerks
killed in the FOrd's theater disaster ended
on the day of their death. No money, he
says, caI be diSbursed to any one by
United States officials unless specific
orders have been made or else by special
enactment OF congress. Tie wounded. he
added, would be paid in full, as they are
considered to be on sick leave.
The commissioners of the district this
afternoon decided to order new inquest
and directed Attorney Thomas, for this
district, to assist Coroner Patterson in
conducting it. The old jury viii be re-
summoned. One of the bodies of the vic

THE KANSAS CITY WATERS.

KANSAS CITY. June IA grand meet
ing Of all the trades unions in the city. in
Guiding the walters union, was held to-
ulght in Turner hall. where 500 people
gathered. The recent action OF the strik-
Ing walters WAS indorsed by the other
unions. all of whom declared that they
would help the walters to win their fig bit.
Among those present were several city aud
state officials, some OF whom made
speeches. The speech made by State SEN
aJog Arthur 5. Lyman created quite d SEN
satiou. Mr.. Lyman declared that the last
session of the state legislature passed Il
law making it unlawful for employers
TO discharge employees because the latter
belong to uuions. Mr.. Lyman de-
clared that the action of the Kansas
City restaurant men IN dlscharging their
employees because they were union men
was illegal, and thas the men, If they
pushed their claims, could secare Iecog-
milton for their union from the restaurant
keepers. Ine walters have decided 10 give
up the questions of hours aud wages for
whica tuey are fighting. and make their
sole fight on the question OF recognition.
II they fail TO secure this, the matter will
probably be carried into the courts.
