WITHDRAWING SIGNATURE.
Consent of Excise Board Necessary In
LIQUOR Cases.

Mr. 8. T. Thomas. attorney for the Dis
trict, today rendered an important opinion
to the Commissioners upon the question
whether a signer to a bar room license
application has the right to withdraw his
name therefrom.
The opinion was called forth by the Com
missioners with reference to the applica-
ton Of August Detterer for a bar room
license on Brightwood avenue, D. c. The
signer in this case who desired to with
draw his name was Mr.. M. G.. Emery. Mr..
Emery's signature was written by Mr.. w.
v. Cox, attorney. While there is no power
Mr. Thomas, authorizing Mr.. Cox to sign
for Mr.. Emery, the latter recognizes such
authority in q note to the excise board,
wherein he expressed his desire to with
draw the authority given Mr.. Cox to sign
for him, and also desires to take the posi-
ton of opposing the grant of license, SO
that the case is to be considered as though
Mr.. Emery had signed the application him
self, and afterward, on changing his mind,
desired to withdraw his signature The
case, continues the attorney, is like that
of William 3. Linkins, wherein Mr.. Dunlop,
vice president of the Washington and
Georgetown Railroad Company, desired to
withdraw his signature from Linkins APP
plication, and he advised them that after
presentation of Linkins' application to the
excise board, with Mr.. Dunlop's signature
nature without the consent Of the excise
board. Mr.. Thomas says that the advice
he gave in the Linkins case applies with
equal force to this one, namely, that Mr..
Emery cannot withdraw his signature with
out consent Of the excise board.

Emancipation Day Celebration.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Will you be kind enough to allow me a
small space in your valuable paper? l
noticed IN your issue of February 5 that
Mr.. Poe requests the different colored
churches. assemblies. civic and military or
ganizations to appoint delegates to meet
and formulate a plan for the best method
of celebrating Emancipa6cn day april 16).
1 would like to admonish all organizations
sending such delegates to so instruct them
that they will adopt the following plan:
That on the 10th day of April all pastors
will be requested to open their churches
and hold divine services and the proceeds
from each collection will go toward form
ing an industrial school for our boys and
girls, and all organizations, civic or mill
tary, will be requested to combine in one
great effort to raise suitable amount for
the same purpose If 1T isn't suitable to
start an Industrial school let them de-
post it in the Alpha Savings Bank for the
purpose of helping our deserving poor next
winter. I think it is a high piece of ignor-
ance to waste so much money in street
parades after so much suffering in winter.

DECISION SUSTAINED.
Court of Appeals on n Much-Tried In

Court of Appeals on n Much-Tried In
surance Case.
The Court of Appeals late yesterday af-
ternoon handed down it's opinion In the case
CT Benjamin E. jackson against Edwin A.
Clifford and Lucien E. c. Colliere, execu-
tors of Louis G. Marini. The opinion was
written by Chief Justice Alvey, and affirms
the judgment of the court below.
The action was against the executors of
L. G. Marlpi. deceased member OF an
original board of trustees CT the Chesa-
peake Fire Insurance Company, organized
under the general Incorporation law con-
tanned in the Revised Statutes Of the Unit
ed States relating to the District OF Co
lumbia. Benjamin F. Jackson became In
sured in the company August 2, 1856. and
September %, 1886, he incurred a loss by
fire, and, although proof of the same was
presented, the company failed to pay the
same. Since that time the company has
become insolvent and discontinued BUSH
ness Marini resigned his position as direc-
tor or trustee in November. 1856.
The action was instituted under sections
500 and SCI of the Revised Statutes, which
require every such company to make an
annual report, but no report was made.
The principal question was whether the
right to recover exists as against the ex-
tees. The court below instructed the jury
that IL they believed Marini rendered his
resignation as trustee or director in No
vember. 1886. the plaintiff could not re-
cover against Marini or his representatives.
The jury found for the defendants.
1t was contended on the part of the plain
tiff that 1t was not competent for Marini
to resign his position of trustee or director
of the company before the end of the year
for which he was appointed. and thus re-
lieve himself of lial,lity that might be in
Cured by reason of the possible nom
feasance of the president and a majority of
the trustees in failing neglecting to
make and publish the report as required by
section 566 Of the statutes The Court of
Appeals, however, did not agree with this
contention, but sustained the court below.
