BONDHOLDERS
MUST WATCH
Interesting Decision in the
DupOnt-Street
Case.
There Must Be Funds Before
Demands VIII Be
HOnOred.
Judge Daingerfield Settles the Order
OF Precedence in Pay
nnents.

Judge Daingerfield has settled atleast
one point in the suits over the Dupont
street bond issue, which will be of more
tnan passing interest to those who still
mold on to the instruments over which
there has been such legal wrangle. He
mas decided in what order they shall be
paid, and as it has already been deci-
ded that they shall be paid, his de-
ciston amounts to a settlement of the
case.
Ihe decision was rendered in the suit
OF Albert Meyer against the Treasurer,
TO compel him to pay the bonds held
by Meyer, which had been submitted
to him for payment, but which had
been refused on account of the lack Of
funds. This lack Of funds had been
caused by the many suits which had
arisen over the assessment district and
which had delayed payment of taxes
until the bonds became due, there not
being enough money in the treasury to
pay them. They became due on Janu-
ary Of 1897, and at once the demands
came in at a rate that quickly exhaust
ed the funds on hand. Then II became
question whether the one who first
applied or the one who first applied
after more money had been turned
into the fund was entitled to have his
bonds paid, and on this point the suit
just decided turns.
On July q, 1897, there was turned
into the treasury nearly $40, 900 for the
bond fund, and as much more for the
coupon fund. On July 3, after the Tax
Collector had turned the first INSTALL
ment of taxes over tO the Treasurer,
but before the funds had been segre-
gated, Meyer demanded payment on a
number Of his bonds, and he was re-
fused because of lack Of funds.
On July rs, after the fund had been
segregated, George T. Bowen submit
ted numbef of his bonds for payment,
and they would have been paid but for
proceedings brought against the Treas
urer by Meyer. In these proceedings
Bowen intervened.
In these proceedings Judge DANGER
field has decided that the bondholders
must watch the treasury, and when
they find there Is money there they
must present their bonds, otherwise
they may have to wait while others
more watchful come before them. He
holds that a demand on the treasury,
when there is no money to pay the de-
mand, is of no effect whatever and the
man who comes when there is money
is entitled to payment on demand, so
the holders of bonds must bide their
time and put in their bonds when there
IS cash on hand.
There was some attempt to bring
into the case the provision of the

HOAR'S NEW RULES.

The Senator Wants Quorum Determined
by President of the Senate; also pro-
poses a modified cloture.
Washington, March 10.-Senator Hoar
gave notice of his intention to move two
important amendments to the rules of
the Senate at the next daily session of
that body. One of these authorizes the
President of the Senate to determine
presumably by counting whether there is
u quorum present when THE suggestion is
made that there is not a quorum present,
and requires him to make known his de
termination to the Senate. Only in case
he hnds mo quorum is he to order a roll
call The present rule requires roll
call as soon as the absence of a quorum
is suggested even though all the seats in
the chamber are occupied Mr.. Hoar
stated his purpose in Offering this reso-
luton to be to prevent the interruption
Of business by unnecessary roll-calls.
The other amendment proposed by Mr..
HOar provides for a modified cloture and
is the same introduced by him in the
03rd Congress. 1t provides that after a
question has been under debate in the
Senate for oneday it shall be in order for
a majority of the Senate to order that
debate shall be closed, except that there
after each Senator may be allowed to
speak once and not exceeding an hour ON
the question in hand.

this amendment to be to enable the SEN

"A POWER IN POLITICS WHEN 1T
TURNS ITSELF LCuSE."

.sForewarned il forearned and the
Southern Company, which with its
ramitica tsons and resources is a pow
er in politics when it turns itself
loose. will look after the next Leg
islature II there be any probability OF
the lease beng attacked. VII
mingtom Star.
Thus writes the Star when it thought
that no action on the lease question
would be taken until the next session Of
the General Assembly. That the South
ern Railway is a power in politics when
it turns itself loose has been abundant
ly demonstrated in Raleigh during the
last sixty days. 1t dominated the Senate
by converting a hostile majority into a
subservient majority, and its agents
could not only suppress or advance rail
road legislation, but could retard or pro-
mote any other sort of legislation.
Never since 1868 did corporate influence
so completely dominate Legislature as
the session of 1897. They will go down
into history together as the two most
disgraceful Legislatures that ever as
sembled in the State. Railroads domin-
ated both. This Legislature only gave
100000 annually to one political rail-
road while the Legislature of 1868 gave
millions to all the Littlefelds that would
give enough bribes. just as large sums
would have been eorruptly given by the
ma jority this time but for the new Con-
stitutional inhibitions.
There has been for long time grow
ing restlessness under the political man
ipulations Of the Southern Railway, but
as 1t did not take much money thereby
out of the pockets of the people there
was no widespread indignation. But
now that this corporation has robbed the
people of not less than $4,000 annually
for so years, the people are up in arms
against the political manipulations that
made that possible. But opposed as they
are to this robbery, they would submit
to it if legally done. The resolve to pre-
vent any suit TO test the legality. of the
lease by the use Of an injunction, which
Judge Simonton will be asked to make
permanent, will arouse the people as
trumpet call to protect their homes and
firesides.
Government by injunction and legisla-
tion by the Southern Railway in North
Carolina must be repudiated by every
true son of the State.
