with burglary. and placed in the coun-
ty Jail. Fred Smith was also arrested
as an accomplice, charged with re.
ceiving stolen goods, H. WAS released

1t seems that Cor some time past the
proprietor and clerks at the Allen
House have been missing money from
the safe, usually in small amounts,
and have been unable to account for its
disappearance up to Friday, Fob. 23
On that day the clerk, Edward Wood,
left the office for few moments and
on returning saw Richmond leave the
Office and also discovered that money
had been taken from the safe during
his absence. He followed Richmond,
found the money in his possession, aud
succeeded in having him admit his
guilt.
Mr.. Wood then set about tracing the
movements OF Richmond for the past
few months, and found he had been
using considerable money in various
parts Of the county.
The evidence thus collected was
brought before Richmond, and ne
finally admitted his guilt, but denied
that Smith had anything to do with it.

Whether the Receivers Are Bound to
Retain brotherhood Men.
Judge Dallas then takes up the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen, and says:
''Thc real question, however, is not
whether the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen is or is not inimical to the gen
eral welfare, but whether these receivers
should be ordered TO retain its members in
their service despite the company's pre-
existing rule to the contrary, and against
their own unanimous Judgment. If such
an order ought to he made il must be be-
cause the action to be restrained would in
juriously affect the interests the receivers
have in charge, or would he contrary to
law or unjust to those Immediately CON
cerned. If there is any other considera-
tion upon which the direction asked for
could be based counsel have not suggested
it nor do perceive it.
"That the contemplated action is not
unlawful is too plain for argument. That
it contravenes public policy is asserted.
But how can this be established? know
of no means of asccrtaining the policy OF
the public in relation to personal rights
but by consulting the public laws. This
Particular association is not corpora
zion, but if it was it would not follow as
seems to be supposed, that it could right
fully insist upon the retention OF its men,

Judge Dallas concludes as follows:
''The rule complained of by the petitioners
was promulgated as long ago rs the year
1887, and the receivers emphatically as

vertcd-that no employe has since entered
