CASES OF SOME POsTNIASTERs
Who Have Been Removed from Once 3
President Cleveland.

President Cleveland.
Washington. Dec. 1.-The president
made the following appointments and
removals Of postmasters: Illinois
Evanston, Charles Raymond, vice Da-
vid p. O'Leary, removed. Missouri-La
Plata, j. w. Overstreet, vice William
E. Cole dead; Mexico, Luke w. Morris,
vice John w. Mason. removed. The old
postmaster at Evanston was charged
with going out of his Jurisdiction to sell
stamps and postal supplies, so as to in
crease the receipts of his Office and
raise his salary and allowances. This
is regarded as a serious violation of the
rules, and works to the detriment of
adjacent offices.
The summary action in the case of
the Mexico. Mo-. postmaster is the out
come Of numerous serious charges
which have been on file here since the
political campaign closed. They include
pernicious activity in politics, insulting
the president and making attacks upon
him, alleged neglect of Office and other
offenses. He is a believer in free silver
coinage. and the complaints set out
that during the campaign he made
himself obnoxious by breaking up
gatherings of the opposite political
faith.
In the neighborhood of 100 postofiices
are involved in charges Of pernicious
activity in politics now filed with POST
master General Wilson. They include
a number of big Offices, against whose
heads serious accusations are made.
The policy Of the postmaster general
has been to act as leniently as possible,
essary. and accordingly all charges save
half a dozen have SO far been ignored,
though action on a number Of others
will shortly follow

Washington, Dec. 1.-The supreme
court, in an opinion BY Justice Gray,
refused to grant the relief asked by
the state Of Nebraska in the case of
Railroad company. The railroad COM
pany declined to allow the erection Of
an elevator on land belonging to that
corporation. Notwithstanding an order
from the state board OF transportation.
1t appeared that in this case the Farm
ers' Alliance Of Elmwood, Nebraska,
had sought and was refused the pri.
vilege of erecting q grain elevator at
the town of Elmwood, and that upon
this refusal the board of transporta-
ton issued an order requiring the COM
pany to grant the privilege. The Ne
braska supreme court, when appealed
to. rendered a decision adverse to the
company. which took out a writ Of
error to the United States supreme
court.
Alliance Not . Corporation.
Justice Gray, in the course of his
opinion, said that the case involved
no question of rates, but that carefully
analysed it appeared as a case in
which a voluntary association Of per-
sons sought to secure for themselves
certain privileges from the railroad
company and to compel a donation of
land for elevator purposes. He dwelt
upon the fact that the alliance was
not corporation but was a voluntary
association Of individuals. Under these
circumstances, he said, the court was
unanimously of the opinion that the
proceeding was an attempt to take
private property for private use with,
outdue process of law and in violation of
the fourteenth amendment to the con-
stitution.
Decision Against Railway.
The court dismissed the case of the
Chicago and Northwestern Railway
company VS.. the city of Chicago on
the ground Of want of Jurisdiction. The
case is one in which the railway COM
pany seeks to prevent the condemna-
ton of ground for a street crossing
over railroad tracks by the city.

Of a misleading report which has been
going the rounds Of the papers relative
to a recent decision Of the United States
supreme court in the case of the Unit
ed States against William ]. Verdier
for the readjustment of postmasters'
salaries under the acts of July IL, 1866.
and March 3, 1888. Judge Thomas said
that contrary to those statements the
decision will not cause a reversal of
the policy of the department under
those acts, and thus let in the claims
of 10000 postmasters, aggregating So
SOC, GOO, which had heretofore been re.
jected.
No question was involved in that case

the only question being one relating to
interest. The salary Of the late POST
master Verdier at Beaufort, s. c., was
readjusted on the theory adopted by the
department under Postmaster General
Dickinson in 1854, and followed by all
his successors, and this theory Of ad-
justment was not questioned at all in
the Verdier case. Verdier claimed, how
ever, that as the salary which was re-
adjusted and allowed in 1856 accrued
in 1865 the postmaster was entitled
to interest thereon from 1865; but the
supreme court held that this claim was
not well founded
