ON ACCOUNT OF PARCEL OF LAND
The Northwestern States
Have Snow Storms.
Trumped-Up Story of Olney Tiff
Denied-An Oversight of
Committee.

BOSTON, Mass, Feb. 26.-The
unique poems and letters of the late
Emily Dickinson attracted the atten-
ton of all literary circles two or three
years ago. Out of the editing of these
poems and letters has arisen peculiar
lawsuit. in which the editor, Mrs. Ma
bel Loomis Todd, we'll known as au-
thor and lecturer, and wife of the Am
herst College Professor of Astronomy
is the defendant.
The suit, which is on the docket of
the present term at Northampton, is
brought by Lavinia n. Dickinson of
Amherst to recover from Mrs. Todd
and her husband plot of land adjoin-
ing the defendants home, the deed of
which, the plaintiff alleges, was fraud
year ago The land in question is val
ued at $4,000.
The complainant is a sister of the
poet and also of the late William Aus
tin Dickinson, treasurer of Amherst
College Her claim is that Mrs Todd
requested her to promise that no build
ings should be erected ON the land, and
presented to her a paper purporting to
be a written agreement to this effect,
which Miss Dickinson signed, as she
says. without reading it, and without
realizing that she was deciding away
her property.
Mrs. TODD sets up that she spent a
vast amount of time and labor in edit
ing Emily Dickinson's works, and con-
tinued it at the solicitation of Miss La
vinia and her brother. The copyright
of the last volume only was issued
jointly to Miss Dickinson and Mrs.
Todd, and the latter says that her total
remuneration for her 10 years of toll
has been but 5000. Austin Dickinson
owned the disputed land jointly with
his sister, and it was his intention, oft
en- expressed to the Todds, to deed his
share to Mrs. Todd as recompense for
her labors. But the defendants aver
he died before he had opportunity to
carry out his desires. They also aver
that the defendant, after her brothers
death, declared her intention of carry
ing out his wishes and said that if Mrs.
Todd would bring her the deed she
would sign it, This Mrs. Todd did on
February z, 1896, and she claims that
the nature of the document was fully
explained to her then. Both parties
have able counsel and will fight the
quarrel to the end.

why Olney Was Absent From In
augural Ceremonies.
WASHINGTON. March 5.-The fall
ure of President Cleveland's Cabinet
to attend the inaugural ceremonies,
held in front of the Capitol yesterday
and the absence of Secretary Olney
from the proceedings in the Senate was
due to some slight oversights OF per-
sons charged with the preparation OF
the Inauguration program with which
neither the old nor the new admins
tration is chargeable. There is no es-
tablished precedent for the attendance
of the Cabinet of the retiring President
at the induction of his successor. When
it was noticed by the Cabinet members
that no place had been set down for
them in the official program and in
the line of escort to the Capitol, they
had no feeling on the subject, and
were prepared to accept the plan grace
fully. However, it was deemed best
to call the attention of the Senate
Committee to this matter and this was
done. but d further lapse occurred
somewhere and provision was not made
for them.
Before the escorts started for the
capitol the commission was discovered
by General Porter and President NC
KinIey. and the cabinet was placed in
proper position in the line as Mr.. NC
