sUPRFmE COURT GASES.
Those to Be Argued Before the Full
Bench Next Month.

Washington, March 1S.-By the ap-
pointment of Senator White, of louisiana
to be assistant justice, the supreme court
of the United States has once more its
legal quota of justices, and the court will
those cases which it has been de-
sired shall be heard before full
bench. There are enough of these
cases to occupy the attention of the
court for more than a month, and the
present expectation is that April will be
consumed in that way. All depends
however, on the condition of Justice
Jackson, who is now i'll the south recu-
perating his health, but it is believed that
he will have recovered sufficiently to be
able to take his seat on April 2, or posi-
bly, week earlier, as the reports which
have been received from him lately have
been favorable The court has set the
Indiana tax cases for hearing before a
full bench on March 26, though it is said
to be probable that the arguments in the
case will be heard whether Justice Jack
son is here or not, it being the desire of
those interested to have the case dis
posed of.
Among the important cases assigned by
the court for hearing before full bench
on April 2, are the following, involving
the constitutionality of the Texas rail
road laws: OleomarFarine cases from
Massachusetts a reargument of the case
of Constable ct al vs. the National Steam
ship Company, limited, which has been
pending for a long time; reargum ent Of
the case Of Hilton VS.. Guiot. involving the
question of foreign judgments; Harden
vs. the Northern Pacific railroad and rail-
road cases from Montana.
The cases assigned for hearing
on April 8, include the following
The interstate commerce commits
sion VS.. Brimson, from the north
ern district of Illinois. Ex-senator Ed
munds appears in this case as the special
counsel for the commission. The United
States vs.. the Trans Missouri Freight AS
sociation, from the circuit court of ap-
peals of the Eighth circuit, and the
United States appellant VS.. the Western
Union Telegraph Company and the Union
Pacific Railroad Company.
There are upwards of twenty more
cases awaiting argument before full
bench but up to this time no steps have
been taken to assign them for hearing.

HYPNoT1srs on rr1A1-

A court trial which has excited much
interest among medical men, was CON
cluded in Strassburg on Wednesday The
prisoner was a quack named Jost, better
known as 1.-The sleeper of Dortisheim. :"
He was originally a tailor in Dortisheim,
but he went TO Paris two or three wears
ago and attended the magnetic circle
under DIR. Desjardens There he was
filled with ideas concerning the
powers of hypnotism, and when he
returned to his home, he began to
practice hypnotic healing He charged
no regular fee, but was won't to get about
40 marks as 'gratituity" from every
body who consulted him. With a woman
assistant named Wolfe and another named
Crosse, he thus built up an income
of so 600 marks a year. He and his as
sistants were arrested as quacks The
trial turned on the crucial point of the
ability of Jost and his associates as hyp-
notists. Prof, Nanuoy and Prof Fuistner,
and counsellor, DR.. Drieger, of Srass-
burg, thought all three were impostors.
Gen. Won Berglann, governor of the
Strassburg fortress, DIR. Langsdorff and
Prof Bernheim, OF Nancy, held that the
three were honest and capable. The hyp-
notists got the advantage of the doubt,
and Jost was sentenced to serve fourteen
months in prison and to pay fine of 500
marks. Crosse was sentenced to seven
months and Wolfe five months, besides
being fined 100 marks.
FAILURE AT NUREMBURG.
William Heidenheimer and Messrs.
Seckendorff & Co., the largest merchants

tion. The members of another hop firm,
Masset q Warner have fed. The col
@apse is supposed to be consequence of
the famous Mas failure.
The Wurtemburg deputies have adopt
ed motion to inquire into the arrange
ment between their king and the en-

DACANA NOT TOBE CIVENUP
Portugal Won't ACCede to BraziI'S
Request.

The Portuguese War Ship Sails Away
From Rio With the Admiral and
Twenty of His officers on Board.
The Vessel Believed to Be en- Route
to montevideo-D Da Cana Would
Have Been Executed.
Copyrighted 1894, by the Associated Press)
Rio Janeiro, March 1s-Judging from
the course Of events here, it is thought
by impartial observers that the Portu-
guese government does not intend to
honor the request made upon it for the
surrender of Admiral da Cana,
who was lately in command Of
the insurgent feet before this
city. Admiral da Cana took refuge on the
Portuguese corvette MindeIlo when the
insurrection here collapsed. President
Peixoto demanded that the admiral and
the officers, who We're with him, be de-
livered TO him. The Portuguese minister
declined to order the commander of the
Mindello TO surrender the fugitives, and
President Peixoto appealed, it is said, to
tho Portuguese government to instruct
its minister to order the surrender of the
insurgent officers.
DA CANA TAKEN OUT TO SEA
Whether a reply has been received to
this request or not cannot be definitely
stated, but this afternoon the Mindello
and the Albuquerque, another Portuguese
Warship, having on board Admiral Da
Cana and seventy OF his officers nut to
sea. 1t had been thought in some quar-
ters that If the vessels attempted to
leave the bay with the fugitives on board
trouble would ensue. There was not. how
ever, the slightest opposition TO their de-
parture, and, as matter of fact, trouble
arising from this source was never prob
able.
The destination Of the warships is not
known. II is coniectured that they will
90 south TO Moutevideo and land the in
surgent officers there Ii they are landed
at Montevideo they can easily if they are
80 disposed, Join the insurgents in the
states of Sac Paulo and Rio Grande do
Sui. who are still in armed opposition TO
the government. Anything said regard
ing their movements is, however, merely
speculative.
WOULD HAVE BEEN EXECUTED.
The fact that Admiral da Cana and
his officers have succeeded In getting out
OF the bay is a matter of great rejoicing
among their friends in this city There
is no doubt in the minds of any ybody that
had the admiral surrendered to the gov
ernment his trial by drum-head court
martial would have quickly followed.
There could have been only one result OF
trial Of this kinda sentence of death.
Yellow fever continues epidemic. The
deaths from the disease average 40 day.
The United States cruiser San Franz
cisco the flagship of Admiral Benham,
has sailed hence. The usual salutes were

that her destination is Bluefelds, Mica

CRIPPLE CREEKS WAR CLOUD.
Grave Danger of a Fight stween the
Military and the Miners.

Cripple Creek, Col, March 1S-This
afternoon and evening a conference was
held in the Palace hotel, at which about
fifty people were present. G. G. Hatha-
way, president of the Bimetallic bank,
occupied the chair. The militia was rep
resented by Adjt Gen Tarsney and Col
E. J. Brooks. The sentiment of all the
speakers was in favor of a military move
ment against the organized labor move
melt that seems now to
have some further object than
the question of eight hours. Adit
Gen. Tarsney said that the laws of the
state had been violated in various ways
by mob interference and resistance to ar
rest, that the orders of the court enjoin-
ing the miners from interference with
workmen willing to labor in the mines at
the terms of the companies had been dis
obeyed, and that deputy sheriffs had been
assaulted on Thursday night and some of
them had been wounded.
THE SHERIFF TO BE SUSTAINED.
All these matters were thoroughly re-
viewed and it was the unanimous eX-
preston that the sheriff must be sustained
in the performance of his duties, and that
the military powers of the state shall
take immediate steps to see that the
sheriff is assisted in his work This
ulGduS gudb III early SHOW OF force Sndll
be made. The militia will be augmented
by hundreds of deputies that have been
sworn in during the past week. When the
movement will be made is uncertain but
it is intimated by Col Brooks that there
will be no haste.
ENTRY OF THE MILITARY.
The town was quiet when the militia
came in at o'clock this morning. They
had halted out of town in the early morn
ing for short rest. They were hooted
by some miners in their passage through
the street to their camping place below
the Palace hotel. They number about
800 and present good appearance.
At late hour last night the sheriff
and posse quietly effected the arrest of
Mayor Martin Dean, of Altman, and
John Calferwood, president of the
miners union, upon the charge of resist
ance and assault.
RALLY BY THE MINERS.
This morning the news of this arrest
stirred up the miners on the hill and they
flocked over to Altman TO discuss the
situation. They are well armed and
have the great advantage of position. 1t
will be difficult, if not impossible, to move
the artillery up the steep rounded sides
of the hills covered with underground OF
shrubs and trees, the only roads being
burro trails. The programme will be to
attempt to gain possession of the mines
that are working and then protect the
workmen from the violence of the miners.

Berlin, March 1S-The usual March
celebration in honor of the men who fell
in the revolution of 1S4S was held here
today. The weather was bright and
cold and thousands went to the Fried
richsbain cemetery to decorate the
graves Of the dead. Huge masses of
wreaths and loose flowers were piled on
the graves The socialists and radicals
tied the bouquets with red ribbons and
the anarchists with black. The inscrip-
tions on the wreaths refer to the work
OF the March revolutiouists and its re-
suits Ihey were examined carefully by
the police and several were seized
Conspicuous in the crowd at the ceme-
terry were the social democratic members
of the city council. Among those visiting
the graves during the afternoon were
many students, members Of the
rowing clubs, marketmen and
clerks. The labor unions were
well represented in the crowd. The
Poles, socialists and Richter radicals were
equally demonstrative in doing honor to
the dead. All were orderly and the police
found no occasion for interference. The
anarchists delivered the orations which
they had prepared for the day in the near
by saloons and private halls.

GOV. wAITE's FIGHT.
The Attorneys OF the Commissioners
Working for Delay.


Denver, March 18.-The attorneys for
Martin and Orr don't want to argue upon
the merits of the question and statement
submitted before the supreme court by
Gov. Waite, as to who the legal members
OF the board are. Their contention has
been all the time that the question of the
right of Judge Graham to issue writ
Of attachment upon the governor
should first be discussed. They will ask
on their application before Judge Lynn
for the arrest of the governor for con-
tempt tomorrow, and will not appear be-
fore the supreme court. This is believed
to be another pretext for delay. Governor
Waite is very much disgusted with de-
lays. This was his reason for calling out
the militia to force the issue. Public SEN
timent is setting in strong in favor of a
settlement by the court Of final resort.
The federal troops returned to Fort Lo-
gan this raGrning.
