poison. The verdict of the jury was that
poison was administered by some person
unknown, which makes it case of mur

alone, with the exception of two small
children, when she was taken sick and

oF TOWNS AND COURTS.
Petition of Caroline Forsythe Against
Town of Hammond Dismissed
Local Court Matters.

Judge Baker yesterday dismissed the pc
tiiion of Caroline Forsythe against the city
OF Hammond. for want of equity. This is
a case in which a new point in law was
brought up. II is of considerable interest
and has never been passed upon by the
State courts. The town of Hammond an
nexed large strip of territory north Of
the town, including tract of farming land
owned by the plaintiff. The point upon
which the plaintin expected to win her
case was that the Circuit Court has no
power under the constitution to consider
such cases. After the property was an
nexed remonstrances were fled and the
case went to the Circuit Court for deci-
sion. The court held that the remon-
strances were not sufficient and upheld the
annexation. 1t contended that the
power of the courts derived from the con-
stitu.ion is entirely judicial and that the
annexation of territory to a city is a politi-
cal matter, and, therefore, the court cam
not decree that 1t shall be annexed.
Judge Baker considered this question
fully and holds that the court does not
annex the land; but that ii was annexed
by the city authorities, the court merely
passing upon the acts of the Council as to
their sufficency. The only thing done by
the court, he says, is to decide whether the
proceedings for the annexation were legal,
and whether the remonstrance was Of a
nature that would be sufficient to defeat
the annexation.
