The case VIII Probably BE Heard
Again In Court.

hEhiu SOuTIs
The legal trou bles OF Charles III. Wors-
ter and Fred X. Marshall, which attract
ed considerable attention a few months
ago, now promise to come back to the
Providence courts for settlement. Mar
shall was arrested at ne OF the clubs in
this city by Deputy Sheriff Barrows ana
was held until bailed by Hertert T..
Mains. The arrest was made on judg-
ment obtained in Boston against Marshall
by Worster, who claimed that he had OBJ
tained loan OF $40 from him by misrep-
resentation. Marshall denied this, and
also claimed that the service upon him
made in Boston had been insu icient, SO
he went hack to that CITY TO fight the case.
Obtaining the aid of Melville q. Adams
one OF the best attorneys in Boston, he
filed petition for review, which is prac-
tically petition for a new trail. The
matter was heard last week and yester-
day the court decided to dismiss the petit
tion.
The effect OF this Is to throw the mat
ter back into the Rhode Island courts,
after a reasonable time has been given
to permit Marshall TO file his appeal.
Marshall from one OF the wealthy
families OF Boston, and IL Is stated that
his mother secured Mr.. Mains before he
furnished the surety that released ber son.

in their extensive repairs OF the big San
ford house. Fifteen years ago this was
the only large first-class hotel south Of
Jacksonville, and being at the head of
steamboat travel was a most popular
winter resort. OF late, however, South
Florida has become q network OF such
hotels, and much grander ones, so that
when the company owning it comes for
ward and seeks to restore 1t to Its original
elegance and attractiveness 1t indicates a
grand faith in Florida's future, and in
spires other large real estate owners to
come forward and make long neglected
improvements on their investments. And
some OF them are already doing that very
thing.
Gen. Harvey Post G.. A. r., has added
to It's post room library, reading room
and war museum, and already 1t has
become quite attractive in pictures, books
and war relies. One of the most valued
of these is a small solid cannon ball found
on the shore OF Lake Monroe, near this
city, in the vicinity of the spot where the
famous battle of Fort Mellon was fought,
in which Gen. w. S. Harvey defeated the
Seminole Indians and Capt. Mellon was
killed. This shot was fired from a six-pound-
er on board the United States steamer
Santee by Lieut.. George c. Thomas of the
Fourth United States Artillery, a then
recent graduate from West Point, but a
gallant Indian fighter in Georgia ana
Florida. He directed his fire upon The
right of the enemy with good results from
the start, and was highly commended by
his superior officers.

Gen. Buckner has running record
In Kentucky that is by no means
cleditable. In the Democratic year
of 1887 he let the usual majority Of
10000 drop down to 1900 in his race
for Governor Since then he has
been running for Senator, delegate at
large and pretty much everything in
sight, but had to leave the Democrat
ic party to get any sort Of recogni-
ton. He could not even be elected
delegate from Hart county to the
Lexington convention. The General
is harmless old fellow, ia his dotage,
and will amuse rather than alarm
Kentucky Democrats. The ticket
he is on-if it gets on the ballot--will
not average 100 votes to the county.
If the old fellow tries to stump the
State and say his piece as he did last
year, his ticket will contest with the
boiling Prohibitionists for fifth place
10 the race.

Arrangements looking to the with.
drawal of the Populist electoral ticket
in Kentucky, which have been pend
ing for week or more, 81 ere conclud :
ed at Henderson Saturday. Unless
there should be an unexpected hitch
10 some Of The details, there will be
no Populist electoral ticket in the
State and no Populist nominees for
Congress in the Second and Third
districts certainly and most likely
none in any district having loyal
Democratic nominee.
Two vacancies on the Democratic
electoral ticket, one of which already
exists and the other is prospective,
will be filled by the appointment of
electors acceptable to the Populists.
This will make certainty of 10000
PDpulist votes for Bryan and remove
any doubt as to the result in Ken
turky. 1t will insure the election of
DR.. Clardy by 5000 or 1000 majority.
