TRIAL IN HOUSE OF LORDS.
Important Case Involving the Intimi-
dafiOn of LabOrerr.

LONDON. March PA rather unusual
to-day. The case OF Flood and Taylor VS..
Allen, which has occupied the various
courts for two years past. was for the sec
ond time before their lordships. The bench
consisted of the lord chancellor, Lord Halls
bury. and Lords Herschell, Watson. Ash
bourne, M~acNaughten, Morris. Shand. Da-
vey and James. of Hereford. the right hon.
orable judges of the high court. The case
is an important one 10 trades unions. as
it involves the question as to just what
constitutes Intimidation" in labor disputes.
After the first hearing of the final appeal
to the lords the judicial members of that
body were equally divided. In consequence
all the judges of the high court were sum-
moned TO the rehearing Of the case, which
opened to-day. 1t was the first time i'm
seventeen years that the judges have as
sisted at a trial in the House of Lords.
Such of the judges as were not members
OF the house were arrayed in their robes.
They could only put questions through a
member of the house. They have the right
to read their opinions at the end of the
case. but are not allowed TO vote.
The case was one brought by Flood and
Taylor, who recovered damages against
Allen. an official of the Boiler Makers
from the Glegall iron works. The plaintiffs
alleged that the defendant threatened TO
withdraw all union men from these works
unless the plaintiffs, who were nonunion
men, Were dismissed. The Glegall company,
having important time contracts to fulfill,
complied with the wishes Of the union.
Flood and Taylor were dismissed. They
brought their action against Allen and won.
The verdict was confirmed by the Court of
Appeals, then followed the appeal TO the

And Gave His Holiness "a skull Cap
Filled with American Gold.

ROME, March 25.-The Pope's mass in
the throne room of the Vatican to-day was
attended by one hundred visitors. of whom
thirty were American pilgrims. mostly
clergymen from New York. Massachusetts,
Connecticut and New Jersey, conducted by
Father Throop. After mass. the Pope,
seated in front of the altar. permitted the
pilgrims to kiss his foot. addressing to each
a few words which were translated by
rather OConnell rector of the American
pilgrims. presented his Holiness with a
white skull cap filed with gold. The Pope
ordered the gold TO be deposited on the
altar. gave his own skull cap to Father
Throop and replaced it with the new one.
His Holiness did not make a speech. but
addressed a few simple words to each of
the pilgrims. and he accorded the priests
of the. party the privilege of bearing the
papal beneGiction TO their parishes on their
return to the United States. While the
pilgrims were lunching at their hotel at
noon the Pope sent Father Throop a large
silver medal and an effigy of his Holiness
with the inscription: tive of
the Episcopal Jubilee of Leo XIII" The
pilgrims will emb for the United
States at Genoa on Saturday next.
