proceedings, Of which Justice Brown said
thry were untenable and were frivolous

Two other capital eases were disposed of
by the opinions read by Justice Brewer.
George l.. Wheeler was convicted of murder
IN Texas and appealed to the Supreme
Court Of the United States on the ground
that a boy five and a half years old had
been permitted TO testify against him.
The question of admitting the testimony
or person OF that age, Justice Brewer
SAID was largely within the discretion OF
the trial Judge, and that discretion did
not appear To- have been abused in this
case. The judgment below, that Wheeler
must hang, was affirmed.
The other was the case of Cha rles
Thiede, Utah wife murderer, who will
also hang. 1t was not an error, said the
Justice, to overrule the challenge of the

| warrants are out for the arrest of num-
Der of brokers' doing business with tick
| ers," whose places are commonly known as
Ducket-shops. This is known as a
necessary sequel of the prosecution of Kop-
pei Kurnitzki, of + street, near Four
teenth, rather than from any statement
by the officials engaged in the prosecution.
Neither District Attorney Birney nor
any or his assistants would last evenin g
talk of the matter, and Lieut.. ii Hollinberrer
and his detectives are equally reticient
The names of the persons against whom
warrants have been issued since Mr. Kur-
nitzki was held for the grand jury is
matter OF conjecture, but men familiar
with the business here state unhesitatingly
that there are thirty to forty cases.
LEFT THE CITY.
Some Of these are of men little kno wn
In the business world, and 1t is said
several have taken fright and left the city.
Others are well known and will make No
effort to escape prosecution.
They nave regarded their business as
legitimate. II the courts find the con-
trary and impose a fine, they will pay ii,
unless the justice of the situation induces
the court Ia remit it, There is not likely
to be any effort To send any of them to
prison. If there should be, they will fight
by every means known Ia the best a ttorneys.
Mr. Brney some time ago expressed the
intention to break up any Illegal business
OF the kind which might come under his
notice, and he viii not fail to bring to the
grand jury every case when the law seems
co him To have been violated.
NO WARRANTS SERVED.
Anything else, it is stated for him, would
be unfair To Mr.. KurnitZki and others who
VIII follow him through the police court.
There is considerable criticism of Mr..
Birney by persons unfriendly 10 him on ac-
count of the prosecutions. They look at it
as an unwarranted interference with rec
ognized business interests.
No warrants had been served up to
late hour. Detectives Quinlan and He
Ian are still active in visiting the alleged
"bucket-shops," watching their methods
OF operating and securing evidence.

TO ninety days in Jail.

would doubtless result just as did the one
just concluded, the motion for one would
be no longer pressed. HIS client, he said,
wanted 10 address the court.
Judge Cole gave his assent and Signor
Moreno said his conscience did not trouble
him for the remarks he had made in the
libellous article he caused TO be printed
in The ColOred American. He re-admitted
that he was unacquainted with Baron Faya
and knew the statements he had printed
only from hearsay.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE president
today sent the following message to
congress:
''To the senate; On the 9th day of
January received copy OF the follow
ing senate resolution: Resolved, that
the president be required, if not 1ncom-
patible with public interest, to COM
municate to the senate all reports, docu.
ments and other papers, including logs
of vessels, relating to the enforcement
of regulations respecting fur seals,
adopted by the governments of the
United States and Great Britain, in ac-
cordance with the decision of the tri-
bunal of arbitration convened at Paris,
and the regulations under which said re-
ports are required to be made, as well
as relating to the number of seals taken
during the season of 1894 by pelagic
hunters and by lessees of Pribyloff and
Commander islands; also relating to
to steps which may have been taken to
extend said regulations to Asiatic waters,
the North Pacific ocean and Behring
sea and secure the Concurrence of other
nations in said regulations, and further,
all papers not heretofore published, in
Guiding the communications of the
agent of the United States before said
tribunal at Paris, relating to the claims
of the British government on account oi
the SEIZURE of sealing vessels in Behrinq

'In compliance with said request,
herewith transmit sundry papers docu.
ments and reports, which have been re.
turned to me by the secretary of the
state, the secretary of the treasury, anc
the secretary of the navy, to whom saic
resolution was referred.
81 am not in possession of any further
information touching the various sub
jects embodied in such resolution. 1
will be seen from the letter of the secre
tary of the navy, accompanying thu
papers, and documents sent from his de
partment, that it is impossible to furnish
at this time complete logbooks of som,
of the naval vessels referred to in tn,
resolution, but venture to express tht
hope that the reports of the command
ers of such vessels as are herewith sub
mitted, will be found to contain in sub
stance so much of the matters recorded
in said logbooks as are important il
answering the inquiry addressed to nj
by the senate"
