PRESS COM MENT.
An ltnkinIeSt Cut.

If the committee on platform at St.
Louis had presented the following finan-
cial plank it is probable that Judge Nor
rison would have voted for it and the Al
buquerque Citizen would have Endorsed
it: "We denounce as devoid of intelli-
gence and integrity those who demand
the coinage of silver, either as money of
ultimate redemption or for subsidiary
use. We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of gold under such restrictions as
may from time to time be suggested by
Heidelbach, Ickelheimer & Co., Laden
burg, Thalmann & Co. and Lazard
Freres.' -Lordsburg Liberal.

MY! But the eastern Democracy is
scoring Whitney for his late utterances
in the shape of letters and interviews.
Whitney has given Wall streets plans all
away. AS for any effect his talk may
have on the Chicago convention, it doesn t
amount to more, to quote Hogg, than the
sniff of sandhill possum. The Demo
cratic masses, not the classes, are in the
saddle this year of grace.

There is not principle, with but one
exception, that the Republican party has
fought and legislated upon that it has not
gone back upon and repudiated at St.

Present Sitting.

WASHINGTON. May 26-The United
States supreme court adjourned today
for the term after delivering ~ Opln-
ions During the term the court has
disposed of 437 cases, leaving 535 on the
docket, a smaller number than has re
NAMED at the close of any preceding
term since the close of the term in
1876 In addition to these finally dis
posed of arguments have been heard in
Is cases in which opinions were not
rendered. The most important of the
cases which go over IS that lnvolvlng
the cOnstitutiOnaIty of the California
irrigation law.
The supreme court reversed the de-
cisiOn of the supreme court Of Arizona
in the case of Bertha TOmlinson VS. the
Southern Pacific Railroad company.
This case was an action for damages
on account of the killing Of A. r. Tom
linSOn on the Southern Pacific road.
The jury awarded $50 900 to be divided
between the widow and other heirs of
the deceased but she RENTED all but
SIS 600 Of the amount The supreme
court or the territory aIlrmed the YER
dict for this amount. Opinion by JUS
tice Gray.
The court decided in the case of Geo.
w GraysOn and others appellants VS..
Lynch Bros, appellees, that the own
ers of stock infected with Texas fever
fever can be held liable for damages
to those to whose stock the disease is
conveyed. The action was begun by
the Lynches against Grayson in the
Territory district court for DOna Ana
county n. NJ. to recover for loss sus-
tanned by their herd from fever con
tracted from cattle driven from Texas
upon their range by Grayson. The
finding Of that court was favorable to
the Lynches and the territorial su-
preme court was sustained
Justice White rendered the opinion
of the court i'm the case of the United
States plaintiff in error VS.. Chas. r.
Allen. reversing the decision of the
circuit court of appeals from the Ninth
circuit. The case ORIGINATED in the
district of California and involved the
legal question as to whether the Nc
Kinley tariff law repealed the provision
of the act of 1888 granting a rebate on
bituminous coal The circuit court Of
appeals decided in favor of Allen. thus
holding that the law was not repealed
Justice White says in his opinion that
it was repealed by implication.

Thousands Attend the N ational Con
vention at Pittsbufg.

Pittsburg. May 26.-Nearly all the
delegates to the national Prohibition
convention have arrived and thousands
of visitors interested in the proceedings
have come with them. AS each state
delegation arrives the friends of both
factions-free silver and gold standard
go for them with arguments of per-
suasion. Each faction is doing its I'M
most to prOselyte supporters Of the
others principles. Each faction claims
majority of the delegates, but from
the eagerness of the various leaders to
win converts. it is yet anybody's fight
The first question upon which the op-
posing wings of the party will test
their strength win be the naming Of
a temporary chairman. He VIII be
chosen at the meeting of the national
central committee to be held at the
Seventh Avenue hotel tonight Those
prominently mentioned for the place
are A. A. Stevens of Tyrone. Pa, and
Edward J. Wheeler of New York. The
former viii be backed by the narrow
gaugers or gold standard men, while
the latter viii carry the free silver
standard.

WAS A GRAVEYARD TRUST.
It is Compelled to Bury People at a
Reasonable Cost.

Houston, May 26-An important de-
cision was handed down by the court of
civil appeals of the First district today.
Thos. Tinsley a wealthy New York
money lender, bought the controlling
stock in the GlenWOOd cemetery. The
exactiOns on lot owners was so outrag-
eous that they held mass meetings and
asked that a receiver be appointed on
the ground that having taken a public
trust the cemetery company should ex-
ecute it. Judge Brashear appointed a
receiver and Tinsley appealed. Bra
shears decision was affirmed.
Tinsley had let the cemetery go to
ruin, charged people for burying dead
in their own lots and refused lot own
ers to bury any but their immediate
families. The press severely censured
his ghOulish conduct, and when the pub
lie asked for consideration he treated
them most discOurteOusly-
The decision is, in effect, that char
tered companies owe duties to the pub
lie by virtue of their franchise, failing
to execute which the court can appoint
a representative of the people.

COTTON EXPOSITION OFF
Southern States Will Not Hold {
Fair at CHICAGO Next year.


Chicago, May 26.-The managers of
the projected Southern States clifton
exposition today decided to postpone
the exhibition indefinitely. This step
was taken because of the failure of the
southern management to enlist any
considerable number OF states in hearty
cooperation in the enterprise. The en-
tire sum necessary to carry out the ex-
position was subscribed in Chicago
awaiting call. The southern committee
asked to give definite assurance by
May 25, that the exhibits would be
forthcoming, and when they were I'M
able to do so there was no alternative
left the Chicago committee but an in
definite postponement. One of the lead
ing members of the Chicago committee
made the following statement:
THE representatives of the Tennessee
centennial, to be held at Nashville next
year, felt that they could not for Ten
nessee exploit two expOsitiOns at once
They advised other states, or rather
asked them to postpone until 1888
From Georgia We received a com
munIcation today from the secretary Of
the advisory board saying that they
felt that Tennessee's proposition should
be accepted and asking Chicago to ac-
quiece in the pOstpOnement. 1t was the
sentiment of our committee that in
view of the foregoing, the exposition
should be declared off and the matter
left open to be taken up at some future
time"

Douglass has been arrested at his home

myth of Perry's own manufacture
Perry claims the plot originated with
the Snowman who compelled him and
Douglass to be a party to it, threaten
ing them with death if they refused.
He alleges the actual murder was COM
rnitted by the Snowman, but admits di-
viding the plumber. There is stin talk
of lynching Perry. He is "A years old
