CoxEY's CONVICTION.
The Trio of Commonwealers to Be
Sentenced To-Day.

The Trio Of CommonweaIers to Be
Sentenced To-Day.
Washington, May 1S.-Judge Bradley,
of the District supreme court, this after
noon refused to grant the writ of GER
tiorari applied for by Coxey, Browne and
Jones, the commOnweal army leaders, and
thus defeated the hope of the Coxeyites
OF bringing up for review the proceedings
IN the police court which ended in their
conviction. Tomorrow morning, at, 10
O'Clock, the convicted Coxeyites will be
brought up before Judge Miller for SEN
tence, the judge having received his re-
commission.
The concluding argument on the appli-
cation for the writ began at 3 O'Clock, and
ended an hour later. District Attorney
Birney appeared for the government, and
Congressman Hudson, of Kansas and
Andrew A, Lipscomb, of this city, for the
Coxeyites. Mr.. Birney opposed the grant
ing of the writ on the ground that the
court had no authority TO grant it. MIR
Hudson contended that the police court
was tribunal inferior to Judge Brad
ley's court and Mr.. Lipscomb held that
the law governing the use Of the capitol
grounds under which the commonwealers
were convicted, was unconstitutional, be-
cause it delegated the power of suspen-
sion to others than the members of con-
gress.
THE JUDGES DECISION.
Judge Bradley, in his decision. said
that it was not within his jurisdiction to
consider allegations or errors made in the
lower court. THE prosecu tion in the DO
lice court, it seems" said the court,
should be on the oath Of the party insti-
tutlng the prosecution, and not at all on
the oath of the prosecuting officer The
question of unconstitutionality of
the act appears to me ludicrous-
almost absurd. The right of the people to
peaceably assemble and petition congress
is subordinate to the rights of the people
in general. 1t is not right allowing any
individual or individuals to override
others; not one that would enable the
people to assemble in the houses of con-
gress. With such a right, all the tramps
of the country, with all the vermin of the
country. would be apt to
come and take practical pos
session of either house of congress.
have dignifed this argument, it seems
to me, by too much reference to it. On
the whole, don't think that such case
has been made out as would justify the
court in exercising Jurisdiction. The de-
PENDANTS had fair trial in the police court.
If l doubted this fact at all would issue
the writ. The writ of certiorari is, there
fore, refused"
Nothing now remains to the men but to
await Judgment in the police court. Judge
Miller also received his new commission
to-day, and will probably sentence them
tomorrow morning. The penalty pre-
scribed for each of the two offenses of
of which they have been found guilty is a
500 fine or sixty days in Jail, or both.

TAIL END OF A CYCLONE.
Augusta Struck by a Severe Storm
Of Wind and Rain.

Large Buildings Shaken by the First
Gust of Wind and the Inmates Rush
Into the Street-Three New Frame
Houses Blown Down-A Visitor to
the City Felled by a Falling Tree.
The Roof of a School Uplifted.
Augusta, Ga, May 1s.-A terrible wind
and rain storm came up at $3.50 o'clock
this afternoon. Augusta received the
tail end of cyclone. Two great clouds
met over the city and Immediately the
storm burst forth. Broadway was swept
as clean as a whistle. No signs were
torn down, but trash and rubbish were
rushed ahead of the wind with light
ming speed. The first gust of wind
shook large buildings and caused a STAN
pede to the street. No fatal damage was
done in the city. The cyclone, though,
must have gotten in its work somewhere
near here, and news Of disaster before
morning is expected Three new frame
houses just built on Gwinnett street, near
Woodlawn, by MIR. Davis, of Greenville,
S. c., were blown down. The roof of the
Haines Industrial Institute was uplifted.
P. w. McDermid, of Gainesville, visi-
tor in the city, was knocked down sense
less by a falling tree on upper Broadway.
He was struck on the shoulder and buried
beneath the limbs and leaves He was
painfully bruised, but is not supposed to
have been seriously injured. The storm
came from the southwest and travelled
northeast.

SAVED FROM TIE aIPBEr.
Gov Northen Gets Back From Texas
in the Nick Of Time.

Atlanta, Ga, May 1s-Gov.. Northen
returned from Texas last night, and was
at the capitol this morning just in the
nick Of time to prevent the hanging Of a
negro.
Last fall Frank Coleman, the negro in
question, killed Bin Smith, another ne
gro, in Jasper county, and wounded an-
other The killing grew out Of fight
over a woman named Ellen Fears, at
dance. The woman, who was the only
eye witness 10 the killing, disappeared,
and could not be found when Coleman
was tried The man was convicted and sem
fenced to hang to-day though he pleaded
self-defense. Last Sunday Ellen Fears,
who was ignorant of the result Of the trial.
turned up IN Jasper county again. She
corroborated Coleman's plea of self-de-
fense, stating that he had been attacked
by Smith and his brother, armed with
knife and pistol A petition for respite
was at once prepared and sent to At
lanta, but the governor was in Dallas,
and did not get it until this morning.
All the preparations had been made for
tho hanging, and in an hour or two the
unfortunate negro would have been exc
cuted, but the governor used the wires,
telegraphng respite until June 2 Cole
man will be given a new trial, and Is
very apt TO be acquitted.

tel, where the dinner was spread, and
taken to the Art Club by Col. Thomas
