JUDGES SCATHINC CHARGE
Foreign Building Associations Are
Roundly Scored.
DEFENSE IN SLAUGHTER CASE
Cent. Interest Are Sustained by
tho COurt-ImpOrtant Decision
Worthy OF Contemplation

Harrisburg, Pa, May 1G-Yesterday
there was tried before Judge McPhcr-
son the case of the New York Building
and Loan association against David
Slaughter. The plaintiff is a New York
corporation doing what is called build
ing association business in this state
The action was to recover from
Slaughter the sum of $500. which has
been loaned by the plaintiff to him on
mortgage, the dues, fines and interest
on which amounted to sum In excess
OF ~ per cent. per annum on the princi-
pal. The defense was that the foreign
corporation has no right to do bust
ness as a building association in this
state, and that all interest, and 80 forth,
and that an excess OF o per cent. per
annum Is usury This defence was sus-
tanned by the court, and verdict Of
2,74o44 IN favor Of the plaintiff tbeing
the amount Of the principal due by
Slaughter. with per cent interest) was
rendered by the jury, subject, however,
to the reserved question OF law whether
there can be any recovery at all in the
action, which was proceeding on the
mortgage. In his charge to the Jury,
Judge Mcpherson spoke substantially
as follows:
THE plaintiff in this proceeding be-
longs to a class of corporation that for
the last year or two have grown to be
very numerous In the state of Pennsyl-
Vania, and 1t Is certainly high time that
their legal position is definitely under.
stood by the general public. They are
mere intruders in this state in this
class of business. The state of Penn
sylvania, for good reasons of it's own,
has chartered building and loan asso-
Citations. Our own associations are, for
the most part, local in their character,
and are managed by persons with
whom the members Of the association
are, or may become, acquainted. Asso-
Citations like the plaintiff are scattered
all over the country, and what their
character and by whom they are man.
aged nobody knows. They send their
agents to our state and undertake and
agree to do business with our citizens
and lend them money. They undertake
to violate our usury laws, and 1t is
much to be feared that in some in
stances they have gone further than
the violation of the usury laws and
have become traps for the unwary.
There are some foreign corporations
that have the right to do business with.
In our state, but they must do lawful
business, and that is a business that
does not violate our usury laws They
have no right to come here and make
contracts upon which they can collect
more than per cent. interest, and l
think If it was definitely understood
that they could not charge more than 6
per cent. interest they would soon
change the field of their operations
In my judgmentwe would be the gain
ers by that; for one would be heartily
glad to see them all leave"

Gruesome Surroundings of Wedding
Ceremony in q Florida Town.

Quincy, Fla, Mya Outstanding by
the corpse Of a man who had been
murdered, Louis Dorneck and Miss
Margaret Gore were married here this
afternoon. In an affray this morning
Fred Cox was cut to the heart by Ed
Higgins and killed. The corpse was re-
moved to Coroner Pittman's office and
an inquest begun. This afternoon the
proceedings were interrupted by the
entrance of Mr.. Dorneck and Miss Gore,
who begged Coroner Pittman to marry
them Immediately.
The coroner had been showing the
jury the wound in the murdered mans
breast, and his hands were bloody. He
suggested more appropriate place for
the ceremony, but Mr.. Dorneck ex-
plained that Miss Cores father was in
pursuit and that delay would be dan
gerous Accordingly Coroner Pittman
hastily said the words that made the
couple one.
As the groom handed the marriage IL
cense to the coroner. the blood on the
fingers Of the latter made a stain on the
document. The bride did not seem to
be affected by the morgue-like sur
roundings. She Is the daughter of
wealthy cigar manufacturer and the
groom Is one of her fathers employees.

MEDAL FOR MIR. HARRISON,
EA.Prosident Is H0nored by Members o
the Newark Historical Society,

EA.Prosidcnt Is HOnOrcd by Members of
the Newark Historical Society.
Newark, N. j., May 1G.-This city Is
| aglow with decorations In honor of the
semi-centenial anniversary OF the New
Jersey Historical society and the visit
OF ex-President Harrison as the chief
guest OF the society. Five hundred in
vitations had been issued to the prin-
cipal theologlans, statesmsr, and jur-
lists OF the state, and more than double
that number were In the Essex Lyceum
on Clinton street, at II o'clock, when
the regular business meeting was
opened. Ex-President Harrison was re-
ceived by Franklin Murphy chairman
of the committee OF arrangements, and
members Of the society, and driven at
once to the Lyceum, where he was
presented with the gold medal com
memorative of the Washington centen-
NAL in 1889.
The presentation speech was made by
DIR. Austin Scott. president of Rutgers
college, New Brunswick, N. J.
The address Of welcome was deliv-
cred by Professor Woodrow Wilson,
Phi. D., LII D., of Princeton university,
and the works of the society was elab-
GRATED by the corresponding secretary,
William Nelson.
The medal presented to Mr.. Harrison
Is Of solid gold encased in a black mo-
rocco case on a cushion of royal purple.
The face bears the likeness of George
Washington, and these words In cir
cle Washington Centennial Medal.
New Jersey Historical Society, 1889,
April 1889"
On the reverse side is the seal of the
state, the seal of the federal govern
ment, and the combination seal of the
society, encircled by a wreath of oak
leaves. Within the wreath and above
the cluster of seals are the words:
above all things hold dear your ma
tional union"
The medal was struck by the society
to commemorate the formation Of the
constitutional government of the
United States, and the centennial of the
Inauguration of George Washington as
the first president, on April 30, 1873.
Why the medal is presented to EXPIRES
ident Harrison. rather than to Presi-
dent Cleveland is because the former
was in office at the time of the CEN
tennial celebration in New York city.
General Harrison made one of his
usual happy and felicitous speeches in
accepting the medal, and was literally
applauded. General Harrison left for
New York this afternoon.

that Walker and Richard, who are be-

indicate what steps will be taken. The
Hawaiian government will not admit
that the men are British subjects, as
they were naturalized here.

The fact that sweet milk cannot be

the theory. However, it is a problem
