UONSUIT FOR
EZ-JUDGE LEVY
Young Edward E. Kellogg
Failed to Make Out
a Case.
No Law in California Against
a 80 Per Cent Contract
for Lawyers.
Judge Hebbard's Decision Will Be
Appealed From by Attorneys
Phillips and Temple.

There was a warm session of the suit of
Edward E. kellogg against ex-J dge Levy
in Judge Hebbard's court yesterday.
Attorney L. E. Phillips denounced as ex-
tortioR ate and unconsciona BILE the contract
of Judge Levy, whereby be was to receive
so per cent OF all recovered from the estate
of the late Calvin w. Kellogg, and Judge
Levy retorted that Mr.. Phillips took 40
per cent from Mrs. Gilroy, q sister of
young Kellogg, for similar services.
Judge Levy's contention was that the
former engagement in The Calvin w. Kel-
logg case had nothing whatever to do with
the second engagement, and that therefore
the rule did not apply. He also drew out
the fact that young Kellogg consulted with
Mr.. Terry before the contract was signed.
He insisted, however. that he trusted
everything in the world to Judge Levy
and was guided entirely by the mind OF
the ex-Judge.
Mrs. Rispah B. Kellogg was asked to give
list of the property that was decided to
her by young Kellogg in consideration Of
$1,000, and the record OF deeds was intro
duced to show the location OF the prop
erty. Mrs. Kellogg explained that none
of this property had been received from
the late Calvin W. kellogg.
Judge Levy here tooK up the cross
examination anu showed that Mrs. Kel-
logg paid Mrs. Gilroy, young Kellogg s
sister, $1,000 on account of similar deed,
and that Mr.. Phillips. her attorney-in-
fact, got 40 per cent for carrying out the
transaction.
THAT isn't so per cent" interjected Mr..
Phillips.
But you got only $4,000 for your client,

and got $4,000 for mine, and besides my
client vas lett out of the will, while yours
was named as one of the heirs" retorted
Judge Levy.
Being called to tn witness-stand Judge
Levy told briefly of his services on behalf
of his client. He said the poor fellow was
destitute, and he had taken what he con-
fairly with him a all times. and had got
much for him where he had at first ex.
pected nothing or very little. All he had
taken for compensation was the 80 per
cent allowed under the contract. He had
never made any demand on Mrs. kellogg
snd never heard of his client demanding
$2o0,O0
This completed the plaintiffs case and
Attorney Jeffer,on promptly moved
for nonsuit on behalf of the de-
fendant He argued that no case
had been made out against the de-
fendant; that all the testimony shows
young Kellogg to be perfectly competent
TO transact his own business and that he
knew what he was doing at the time he
signed the contract.
Mr.. Phillips, replying, said that here
was a remarkable spectacle OF half
witted, dissipated, ''nutty" young man,
who had been induced to sign a contract
while under the influence Of liquor giving
half of all that might be recovered in his
name, Wnen the services performed were
not worth a quarter ofthat amount.
When Mr.. Temple offered to read the
great case OF Cox VS. Delmas Judge Heb
bard said that decision cut no figure In
this litigation. 1t appeared from all the
testimony. but particularly from the tes-
timony of kellogg himself, that he clearly
understood the contract. Such contracts
are not forbidden by the statue. Wit
ness Donnellen, the particular Trend OF
kellogg, corro borated the position Of the
defense that kellogg understood what he
was doing. and he acted knowingly and
willingly under its provisions. The clause
in Calvin Kellogg's will did not bestow
on Edward Kellogg a life interest in the
estate of the testator. l. was mere re-
quest to care for him, what is called a
precatory devise, that might be ignored
by the benefciaries under the will The
plaintiff had failed to make out a case in
legal form, and therefore the notion for a
nonsuit must be granted, and it was SO
ordered.
Messrs. Temple & Phillips gave notice
that they would move for new trial, and
II they failed in that, they would appeal
to the Supreme Court.

a New Decision Regarding the
Liquor Traffic.

Judge G.. II. Simmons, of the
Federal Court of South Carolina,
recently rendered a decision which
raises an important question to be
considered in the final settlement
of the liquor problem. South Car
olina has u dIspensary law, It will
be remembered, and sells mtoxica.
ting liquors for beverage purposes,
at profit, under State control. The
decision was rendered in the case
OF the Nandercook Co. against the
State of South Carolina to restrain
the State from preventing the sale
of liquors brought into the State.
Following is the full text of the de.
cision:
ANY State may, in the exercise
OF the police power, declare that
the manufacture, sale, barter and
exchange or the use as a beverage
of alcoholic liquors arc public evils,
and having thus declared, can for.
bid such manufacture, sale, barter
and exchange or use within her
territory.

and approves the manufacture, sale,

ly." What the gentleman says
about Jackson is true. The capi-
tai OF the proud commonwealth is
growing as never before in its his.
tory. 1t is no boom, but Il steady
growth. And what is true of Jack
son is true of all the other towns in
the State. They have taken on
new life, the voice of the crOaker
and the calamity howler is huShed,
and the people are pulling together
everywhere as they never pulled
before. The poet has said that God
makes the country and man makes
the town. God never made a pret-
tier country or a better, hraver
people than lnhabit Mississippi.
Here every prospect pleases, aud
the time is near at hand when prop
erty values in both town and cOun-
try will double and then treble,
and Mississippi will become one of
the greatest States in the whole
union. One Of the surest ways to
this devOut cOnsummation is the

Of lite and property. The State has
wise and liberal laws; capital will
find no fairer or more inviting field.
