A STRANGE CASE

LONDON, March 25.-A rather un-

of lords today. The case of Flood and

was for the second time before their
lordships.
The bench consisted of the lord chan
cellor, Lord Salisbury and Lords Her
schell. Watson, Ashbourne. MacNaugh-
ten, Morris. Sham. Davey and James
of Hereford, the eight judges of the
high court. The case is an important
one to trades unions as it involves the
question as to just what constitutes 'in-
timidation" in labor disputes. After the
first hearing of final appeal to the lords
the judicial members of that body were
equally divided In consequence the
whole of the judges of the high court
were summoned to the rehearing of the
case which opened today. 1t was the
first time in ten years that the judges
have assisted at trial in the lords.

Judge Wallace Fines a Diligent
Contractor

SAN FRANCISCO, March 25.-Con-
tractor J. ]. O'Brien made the mistake
today of falling to obey an order of
Judge Wallace. For disobedience Of the
order O'Brien was aGjudged guilty of
contempt of court, fined $500 and SEN
fenced to five days imprisonment in the
county Jail.
The order of Judge Wallace was di-
rected against O'Brien as the contractor
for certain work now in progress on
the city hall During the morning ses-
sion of the court Judge Wallace was
greatly annoyed by constant pounding
and hammering on the roof. So great
was the noise that jurors and counsel
frequently complained of inability. to
hear what was said by the witnesses in
the case on trial. Judge Wallace finally
lost patience.
"Mr Bailiff," he said, "go upon the
roof and tell the man in charge Of the
work that this noise must be stopped"
The troublesome noise was still raging
when Bailiff Curtis returned to the court
room five minutes later.
"Why didn't you stop that hammer
ing?" inquired Judge Wallace.
Couldn't" replied Curtis. 1.-THE man
says he can't stop"
Can't stop?' said the Judge Cant
stop? Bring him here, Mr.. Bailiff, and

Curtis departed on his errand. and
shortly returned with O'Brien. The con-
tractor grinned broadly as he entered
the room. In whispered conversation
Judge Wallace told OBrien that the
noise must cease. O'Brien replied that
he could not stop his men for the reason
that he was under contract to finish the
work as soon as possible. He had been

HAPPY HIaHBINDERs
Minister and Tong Leaders Reach an
Uud erstandinr

WASHIGTON, March 25.-The repre-
sentatives of the Chinese minister and
the See Yup society today reached a
basis of agreement whereby the difficult
ties existing in Sam Francisco as a re-
suit of the controversy between the See
Yup and Sam Yup societies will be ad-
justed. The See Yups will declare or
the boycott against the Sam Yups, or
merchants society. The injunction still
in force against the Chinese consul at
San Francisco, which prevents him
from interfering with the affairs of the
See Yup society, will be withdrawn, and
the minister valves his demand for pay
ment of certain court costs.
An emphatic denial Is made in behalf
of the minister, that he demanded from
the See Yups "a fabulous sum of money"
as one of the propositions on which he
would consider the AFFAIR. The amount
stipulated was, 1t is stated, small and
simply enough to pay certain court fees
incurred as a result of the litigation in
the San Francisco ourts. An equally
emphatic denial is made that the minis
ter told the See Yups that they were
not under the jurisdiction of the United
States but, being Chinese citizens.
were under the control of the minister.
On the contrary. the minister told
them that, being in this country, of
course they must abide by and obey its
laws. The counsel for the See Yups to-
night united in saying that in these re-
spects the minister had been misunder-
stood, and that he did not make the
statements attributed to him. AS re-
suit of the agreement. the minister will
communicate with his government, with
a view of having the sentences imposed
on the leaders of the society in San
Francisco revoked and their property
and that of their relatives in China,
which has been seized, restored to them.
]. C. Campbell, attorney for the See
Yups, expressed himself as greatly
pleased with the result of his mission.
The minister, he said, had been misin-
formed and had misunderstood the true
situation of affairs, and as soon as they
were presented to him in their proper
light, he reached the decision stated
above. The See Yups were recognized
by the minister and have been granted
permission to conduct their business as
before.

In the case of the United States against

as the papers reach the department of
justice, motion will be made in the su-
preme court to advance the docket so
that a speedy determination of the ques-

1t is stated that the decision of the SUI

covers all the main points in the de-
cision of Judges Wallace and Larcombe

peal will be argued and decided before
