THE MORA CLAIM IN COURT.
A Suit Entered to Enjoin the Trnnsfe,
sOf an Interest.

A Suit Entered to Enjoin the Transfer
eOf an Interest.
A petition for an injunction was filed late
yesterday afternoon by James E. Dexter
against Joseph P. Germuiller, asking the
transfer of an interest. In his bill Mr..
Dexter states that Nathaniel Paige was,
pricr to May IS, 1892, attorney for Antonio
Maxine Mora, who is now trying to re-
cover more than one ard a half million
dollars from the Spanish government for
injuries received to himself and his prop
erty at the hands of Spanish soldiers in
Cuba. 1t was understood that Paige is to
receive forty per cent of the amount that
may be recovered from Spain.
1t Is further set forth that some time
before May 49, 1892, Dexter received an
assignment of portion of Paige's prospec-
tive interest in the claim. The former, it
Is claimed, transferred $1,000 of his own
prospective interest to Germuilier for $4OO
To secure payment a promfssory note was
given, and in default of settlement, SO it
Is alleged, Germuiller agreed to retransfer
his interest to Dexter. Mr.. Dexter declares
the note referred to has not been paid and
therefore he brings suit to restrain Ger
muller from transferring the interest in
the claim described. and that the transfer
already made to him be vacated

at Reading, Pa. His determination to make
success In his profession was early mani
tested, but as good an example as any may
be cited when it is stated that he mastered
the German language, which was then
much spoken in that region. He soon at
tained high rank as lawyer, and In 1S4G
he became candidate for Congress and
was twice elected on the democratic ticket,
serving from 1S47 to 1851. He declined
third nomination, and retired from active
politics.
He was elected in 1857 a justice of the
supreme court of Pennsylvania, and served
In that position eleven years. His opinions.
as published in the state reports, exhibit
great care N preparation, clearness of
statement, precision and vigor Of style and
accurate knowledge. In 1863 he resigned
his seat on the bench and opened an office
In Philadelphia, at once obtaining large
and lucrative practice.
Justice of the Supreme Court.
In February, 1870, he was appointed JUS
tice of the Supreme Court of the United
States, and served until December, 1880,
when he retired. He continued to reside
in this city. He was a member of the
electoral commission in 1877, and In his
opinions contended that Congress has no
power to canvass a state election for presi-
dential electors. He rendered eminent ser
vice during mis- term on the bench, and ms
knowledge of law, keen discrimination and
sound Judgment made him an invaluable as
sociate in consultation.
Justice Strong was probably the most
prominent layman in the Presbyterian
Church. For years he has been president OF
the American Tract Society and of the
American Sunday School Union. He was
the originator of the movement which led
to the organization Of the Church Of the
Covenant, and the erection Of the handsome
edifce. In addition to the time and labor
which he gave to the church, he was the
largest single subscriber to the fund raised
for the erection of the church building. and
has since that time been liberal con-
tributor to the church.
He was the senior elder of the Church of
the Covenant and member Of the board
of trustees. Justice Strong delivered many
public addresses and lectures, and frequent
ly contributed to magazines and reviews.
He delivered a course of lectures to the pro-
fessors and students of the Union Theo-
logical Seminary of New York, and for sew
eral years he was lecturer in the law
department of the Columbian University.

toned the signal was given for a warm
discussion. This matter has been hanging
fire for a long time. About two months
ago q committee On music was appointed
to make arrangements for band on Labor
day. After considerable difficulty the COM
mittee made a contract with the Laurel
Band of Laurel. Md When the matter
was announced considerable objection was
made on the ground that the band was not
composed of union men. 1t was argued by
those who made the arrangements that as
there was no union at Laurel the band was
exempt from the charge. That made no
difference to those who opposed the band,
and it was decided by motion not to pa
rade bshfnd band that was not composed
CT union men.
The proposition of the c. G. Conn Drum
Corps to give its services gratis on Labor
day was also rejected, as the leader was
found to be employed in the navy yard and
was not a union man.
