INJUNCTION DIDN'T WORK.
Vacated After . Lawyer Had Sold securiti,
In spite OF It.

Vacated After . Lawyer Had Sold Securities
In spite OF It.
When a lawyer Of this city recently assumed
the role Of auctioneer and sold 1O3 bonds and
5000 shares of stock Of the Bay State Gas Com
pany Of Delaware, apparently in the face of an
injunction prohibiting the sale, a dramatic
scene was presented at the Real Estate Exchange
Salesroom. with Lawyer Goldbeck standing on
the auctioneer's block calling for bids. while q
representative OF Evarts. Choate & Beaman
from the same eminence iourished a Medusa
shield of injunction papers without 9orgonizing
a soul and shouted a protest against the sale.
After the securities had been knocked down to
the highest bidder for 1877, 900, and delivered
and paid for. there was lively discussion on the
street as to the validity of the sale. and talk of
tho liability OF the lawyer who had acted as auo-
tioneer TO prosecution for acting without an
auotioneer's license and to contempt proceed
ings for violating an Injunction Of the Supreme
Court. Nothing happened, however, until Tues
day, when the matter came up before Justice
Pryor at Special Term. After listening to the
argument OF both sides. he declared that plain
tiff's papers exhibited no ground for an injunc-
ton, and he vacated the temporary order.
This Is tho second Injunction sought for the
same purpose. the first having been obtained on
Jan. 5, and having been vacated ON March IL.
The securities sold were held by William
Buchanan as collateral on a note OF Lawson,
Weidenfeld & Co.. for $50. 900. The trial of the
suit on the note has been set down for the May
term.

HIs Partner In DisorderIy Houses Gets letters
ON Bruah's Estate.
Jennie Brush, nearly sixteen years old and
rosy-cheeked, came TO this city from Salem,
Mass. and secured work as a nurse with DR..
Clark OF West Houston street in 1879. Joseph
c. Brush was tho policeman on that beat look
ing out for malefactors and cooks, and he soon
upied and became acquainted with the new girl
from the country Within q few months she
went TO live with the policeman at 81 West
Houston street. They were never married by
ceremony, but she was known as Mrs. Brush.
Brush died on June IL. 1895. leaving an estate
which has not yet been appraised, and his
brother Jacob J. Brush took out letters OF admin
i~stration. declaring that Brush died u single
man. The country girl, as Jennie Brush and
widow, moved to set aside the letters. and asked
that letters upon his estate DO issued to her. In
an interesting opinion on common law marriage.
Surrogate Fitzgerald. has found In her favor.
The Surrogate says that u further inquiry will
be necessary 10 ascertain II her child called
Frank Ross 10 a son OF Brush.

The spread Of what may be
termed Socialistic ideas in this
country is now very rapid. There
was time, not 80 very many years
ago, when the people did not ap-
pear to think at all; they had no
ideas worth mentioning on the
subject Of their economic condl-
ton. They supposed all that to
be Of comparatively little import
ance. The great change that has
taken place is largely the result of
the operations Of trusts and great
corporations. Autagonism to
trusts and great corporations is,
from one point OF view. but a form
Of Socialism. Hence tho trusts
and great corporations arc doing
the work OF social reform M per-
haps no other single influence
could do it The methods OF the
Sugar trust. for instance, have
done more to spread Socislist,c
ideas during tho past three years
than have all the lectures and
teschings OF tho sociol reformers
for twenty years. That is why It
is foolish to become despondent at
the spectacle OF great corporations
firmly intrenched in power and
making use OF tho government AZ a
lever. Such a spectacle has much
in it to inspire hope. Even tho
millionsires are uneasy at the pros.
pect. They pretend to be disgust
ed by the operations OF great COM
binntions of capital although they
alone derive any benefit from them.
1t is hardly possible that tho car.
nival Of vested interests can con.
time long. II may bc that within
n few years there will bo such a
revolution at tho ballot box, eco.
nomic and political, that tho peri
oil we aro now passing through
will be looked upon ns nm uneasy
dream. Great revolutions nrc cf-
fcctel with just such suddcnncss
Tho signs Of tho times were never
no favorable. upl,cavnl is in the

the right of co-owners of water to

quest to the superintendent of ire

the water TO other lands. The

The Graphic is of the opinion
that Debs will make n failure of
his cooperative commonwealth. 1t
does not believe thnt tramps and
trash are the right sort of people
with which 10 build up commune
ity. OF course, the unemployed
are not the best of mechanics; the
best always hold their jobs to the
last. If Debs selects a class of
men who know enough to follow
the leadership of men of acknowl-
edged ability, they will ultimately
succeed. A good illustration is
the Mormon settlement Mt Salt
Lake. The Mormons were the
scum of all The earth but they had
men of brains for leaders and they
succeeded beyond the dreams OF
avarlce. And SO will Debs suc-
cced if mischief makers will keep

| AhG 6AcoCot COoI stIlhe ever
known in America has been de-
clared. l25,0O0 miners, from five
states, are on a strike for living
wages. Alfred Henry Lewis writes
for the K. Of L. journal from Pitts
burg, Pa, from which we quote as
follows:
There are to be some stirring
black times in these hills. There
are some in high, clean places of
comfort and pomp who are to have
much TO answer for. There is TO
be riot and wrong in these valleys.
Blood is to flow, the torch is to
play its part, and all these deeds
OF black and red will come in the
next two months.
This is not prophecy. I have
no bent to pierce Il future. But
I've been among these folk of the
lamp. l only repeat what some of
their most trusted leaders tell me.
The $4,000 miners of the West
Pennsylvania region are to strike.
The step has been resolved on. 1t
only remains for Ratchford and
"courcir'-to meet in Columbus
within week to set the day.
There are those who say that the
nine owners have fixed" Ratch-
ford. The most, however, deny
this. They all agree, however,
that with Ratchford or without
Ratchford, n strike will come.
When? They say by the last OF
this month.
"But you people have nothing"
! said, "Iou will 90 into this strike
and starve."
"We starve as it is" was the re-
tort. "With fifty-four cents ton
to mine coal, with fifteen per cent
OF that taken off for powder, oil
and sundries, with, in short, the
best of us making m average of
not more than s. week the year
'round-we s.arve as it is. To
strike makes it no worse. We will
at least earn revenge. We might
ms well got TO hell ut full speed ns
creep"
That is miner sentiment, the
sentiment and spirit of men whose
hopes are desolate, and whom want
and despair make mad. Take and
mark my word; great mine strike
is upon us--a labor storm is to
break tina: will make the summer
of ~ memorable.
