METROPOLITAN RAILROAD CASES.
Action of the Court Of Appeals Today
In Diminishing Them.

Action Of the Court Of Appeals Today
In Diminishing Them.
On the motion Of District Attorney Biz
ney the Court Of Appeals today dismissed
the appeals of the United States in the two
cases of the United States against the Met
ropolitan Railroad Company. The first case
was that in which the government sought
to have forfeited the charter of the COM
pany because of it's failure to pay the
judgment recovered by the District Of Co
lumbia on account of paving done by the
District several years ago between and ad-
jacent to the tracks of the company. The
appeal was from the judgment of Judge
Bradley. rendered several months ago, dis
missing the demurrer filed by the govern
ment to the pleas Of the company.
On the I'd Of last month an act Of Con-
gress vas approved by the President which
recognized and continued the charter of the
company upon the performance by the COM
pany of certain things. The act provided
that the District Court Of Appeals should
consider and have final disposition of the
above claim Of the District. provided that
the company waived within thirty days
from the approval of the act, any and all
rights to an appeal from that court to the
United States Supreme Court. Mr.. Birney
explained to the court that the company
had filed such a waiver. and would fully
and finally abide by the decision of the
Court of Appeals in the matter Of the Dis
trfcts claim, which amounted to nearly
100000.
Mr.. Birney also moved that the appeal in
the case wherein the government sought to
have forfeited the charter of the company
because Of it's failure to substitute other
motive power than horsepower be dis
missed.
Both appeals were accordingly dismissed,
and the case Of the District against the
company will probably be heard and dis
posed Of by the court within a comparative
ly short time.

The Penalty of Wife Beating.

James Beattie, a young white man.
drank too good yesterday to celebrate
Labor day. or so he told Judge Kimball this
morning, for before he got through with his
spree he assaulted his wife. She was the
principal witness against him in court to-
day, and as she stood up to tell her story
she held in her arms one of the prettiest
little babies seen in the court room in many
day. The husband said that he had
steady employment, and he was afraid he
would lose this IL he were sent to Jail His
wife would not relent, however, even when
the husband made some little advances to-
ward the baby. His only defense was that
he was SO drunk yesterday that he did not
know whether he had struck his better half
or not Judge Kimball held that drunken
ness was no excuse, and sent the young man
to jail for thirty days. The latter tried to
speak to his wife as she left the court room,
but she refused to recognize him, and he
turned sadly away.
