STANFORD CASE

And Would Have Impoverished the
Widow of the Senator aud the univsr-

Lower Courts and Those Decisions Arc
Nowconnrmsa by the coar, of Las. Re-
sort. 3

WASHINGTON. D. c., March 2-The
supreme court to-day decided the stan
fopl case In favor OF Mrs. Stanford. y
The title OF this case was the United
States W.. Jane L. Stanford. executrix
OF Leland Stanford. deceased.
It involved the individual liability OF
stockholders In the Central Pacific Rail-
road Company for the debt due to the
United States on the bonds issued in
aid OF the Central Pacific under tho
California constitution. Mr.. Stanford
held IA, SS7 shares OF the Central Pacific
stock, and II was claimed by the gov-
eminent In instituting Its suits that the
government was entitled to collect
1888, 900 from the Stanford estate.
Stanford. on the ground that the Cali
forrlia constitution was not self-execut-
ing, and also on the plea that II was the
intention OF Congress in granting aid
TO the Central Pacific company to put
It on footing different from the foot
ing on which other government aided
roads were placed.
The case was brought originally In
the circuit court for the California dis
trict, where the decision was favorable
to Mrs. Stanford, and was then appeal-
ed to the circuit court OF appeals for
the Ninth circuit. where the decision
was also against the government. The
government appealed to the United
States supreme court, and soon after
the case was docketed,, moved TO have
II advanced for hearing. This motion
being granted. the argument was made
during January, eminent counsel ap-
pearing on both sides,
The suit has attracted great attention
from Its initiation because OF the effect
the decision will have upon the other
Central Pacific stockholders and also
because the fortunes OF the Stanford
university will be determined largely
by the decision.
Justice Harlan delivered the opinion
In the Stanford case. He held. that In
dtyidual stockholders were not liable
for the government debt OF the Central
Pacific Railroad Company. He sald the
congressional acts OF lS62-'@ and So
regarding the Pacific railroad must all
be retarded as one law, as the object
was ehe construction OF one contln-
uous line. Congress employing the DIFF
terent railroad companies only as In
struments. Security was given In the
government mortgage on the property
OF the railroad companies.
II was, ne said. not too much to say
that Il the building of the Northern Pa.
ciiic, for instance. the stockholders had
been ennde liable the purpose OF Con-
.gress to secure national highway
would have been materially retarded
and u was plain that no obligation was
meant to be put on one company that
was not put on the other. Any other
construction would be Inconsistent The
decision OF the court below was there
fore affirmed.

THE MEMBER WAS ASLEEP.
And that was Why He pidn't Hear this
Remarks OF the Speaker.

lkfutAfAs % thtt hPthAtEs
washington Post: The members of
the house are still laughing over n de-
liciously funny Joke which Representa-
tive Fischer, OF New York, perpetrated
a week ago Mt the expense of Mr.. Glib
son, OF Tennessee. The pension bill
was under discussion. Mr.. Gibson was
speaking to an amendment offered by
himself. Mr.. Gibson Is conspicuous
chiefly for his short stature, his fierce
Napoleonic moustache and an opulence
of lung power which reminds one OF
ex-Speaker Keifer. fifE m
He was using this lung power 70 It's
best advantage. The volume OF sound
which escaped from his lips reverber-
ated through the chamber in trumpet
tones and could be easily heard in the
Corridors He was emphasizing his
words with series OF violent gesticula-
lions, which are the usual accompanl-
ment OF speeches on the southern hust-
ings. He was fairly warming up TO his
subject when Mr.. Fischer arose.
MIR. Speaker" he exclaimed, II rise
to n point OF order"
.srhe gentieman from New York will
state his point OF ORDER" replied the
chair. blandly.
MY point Is this" went on the New
Yorker "a number OF members OF this
side desire that the gentleman from
Tennessee shall speak louder 1t is i'm
possible to hear him in this part Of the
chamber. Why. even the gentleman
sitting next to him is not catching n
word"
All this Fischer said with a face as
grave as a Roman senator, dropping
back quietly as he spoke into his seat.
The house. which saw that Fischer was
chatting Gibson, awaited the result with
much interest. Gibson, who also real
lied that he was being guyed, turned
and looked for n moment at the gen.
tleman beside him. As he. did 80 his
face expressed first surprise and then
disgust
Fischer was right. The gentleman
beside him" could not hear him. He
was sound naleen.

meeting last night and disposed Of the
case of William Wilcox, of Engine Com

asleep on a hose carriage in the fire house
on July Is.
Mr.. Bender asked for Wilcox's past rec

through an alarm on September %. 1894.
On May IA, 1895, he was found to be drunk
while on the apparatus going to a fire.
Several other OFFENCES of wilcox's had

Wilcox be fined fifteen days pay Of the
month of September. and also be severely
reprimanded by the president OF the

motion and said Wilcox ought to be dis

MOUNT HOLLY. Sept, @. 1sse-The
Mount Holly Fair opened yesterday with
one Of the best displays of agricultural
products and nearly every department
fully up to the high standard it has 50
long maintained. Just fifty years ago
the fair was started In a small way by
a few p-ublie-spirited farmers who were
desirous Of helping the cause of agricul-
ture and creating a friendly rivalry
among the agriculturists Of the county,
with the idea of raising the andar of
all farm products. The first fair was held
in a tent in the Court House yard at
Mount Holly and consisted Of a few ex-
hibits Of fruits and vegetables. 1t in
creased IN popularity from year to year
until now the society owns one OF the
nnest tar grounds in the East and its
exhibitions ofnpare favorabiy with those
of any section of the country.
: The rain yesterday interfered somewhat
with the attendance and delayed the ar
rangement Of the exhibits. The cattle
pens are well filled with some Of the fin
est specimens of thoroughbred Jerseys,
Ayreshires. Deyons, Guernseys and Dutch
beited cattle. and there is a fine array
of sheep ard swine. One of the Judges
remarked that the sheep on exhibition
We're among the finest he had seen at any
agricultural fair for a long time. The
section devoted To- swine is also well filled
lin fact, many additional pens had to be
constructed in order to accomomate the
entries.
The department devoted to horses for
general utility is well filled, there being
some fine individual specimens In the lot.
The gentlemens road horses, which, are
ineluded in this class, will be put through
lneir PAGES on the track today before
the regular racing Programme begins.
and this is always one OF the most inter-
estfng features of the fair.
