SUITS AGAINST NEWSPAPERS.
Motions TO Set Aside Service Grant
ed-JurisdicfionnI Question.

NEW YORK. January 15.-Judge La
combe. I'm the United States Circuit Court
for the Eastern District Of New York,
has handed down decision granting the
motions made on January 18th to set
aside service in the cases Of William s.
Brewer and the Union Associated Press,
against the following newspapers: Louis
VILE Press Company, Journal Newspaper
Company. Of Indianapolis Evening News
Association, of Detroit, Mich; CONNER
cial Tribune Company. of Cincinnati, and
the Inter-Ocean Publishing Company Of
Chicago.
These actions were originally begun in
the New York Supreme Court in Queens
county, but were thereafter removed by
the defendants into the United States
Court for the Eastern District of New
York, and the motions to dismiss were
made before Hon. Judge Tenney On ac-
count of his death the motions were
transferred, and were argued before
Judge Lacombe.
This decision practically reverses the
decision made In the case Of Fontana
against the Pittsburg Chronicle Tele-
graph, and the decisions made by Judge
Tenney in the case of Brewer and the
Union Associated Press against George
W. Knapp, 81 Federal Reports. 69f, and
Will force the plaintiffs to an appeal, to
settle the jurisdictional question.
The following is a copy of the decision:
The facts in all these cases are more
or less similar to those rehearsed in

District of New York. October /, and Oc-
tober 90 1880, and in Brewer VS.. George
w. Knapp & Co.. 81 Federal Reports. 59
Upon consideration Of the questions pre-
scented. / am by no means so confident
that my former decision In the Fontana
case was correct, or that Judge Tenney
and myself were right in holding that
the several individuals served with pro-
cesses were managing agents OF the de-
PENDANTS"
II am, however, more than ever i'm
pressed with the importance OF having
this jurisdictional point decided In each
case before the time of the court is con-
sumed In trying the merits OF the con-
troversy. Here we have Including the
cases named in the caption and the others
on the calendar nearly fifty libel suits,
all brought by the same parties against
different newspapers located in widely
scattered States. with no suggestion that
the libel was ever published or circulated
here by defendants, or that they have
ever done anything I'm the way Of bust
ness here than to solicit advertisements
through some advertising agent, who In
most cases acts as advertising agent for
some other papers. and has no control
over the rates TO be charged or the space
to be given. II IL hardly TO be supposed
that Congress intended the Federal cir
cult courts TO exercise such comprehen-
slye and far-reaching Jurisdiction, except

A TRUST COMPANY ASSIGNS.
hhiiure Due TO Peculntions Of II,
General Mnunrer


LOUISVILLE, KY, January 15-At y
meeting Of the directors of the Kentucky
trust Company, held at noon, an assign
ment to the Columbia Finance and Trust
company was ordered, and the deed was
filed this evening.
II mas been known that the concern has
been in hard lines for some time. owing
10 the flight and alleged peculations of
Nlce-President and General Manager VIII
nam heineck. At the meeting this morn
ing a letter from Reineck was read. The
letter was in the abscOnding officers own
handwriting, and was mailed in this city
on thursday although Reineck is sup
posed to have been absent from the city
since Monday.
The writer admitted that he had be-
uayed the trust that had been placed in
MN, and gave the details of one deal in
which he had lost $1,000 of the company's
money. lie says that he is sorry and
that not one cent of the money did him
any good. In conclusion. he says that
ms misfortunes were brought about by
unfortunate speculation in Alabama coal
lands. He says that he has flown to
strange lands, and will never more be
seen by any of his friends or former
business associates.
The liabilities of the Trust Company
are Sl2o,OyO' the assets about $4,000. Rel

when case coming strictly within the
language OF the statute is made out.
1.-THE proper disposition 10 make OF TINS
entire group Of cases would seem to be 70
grant these motions. BY reviewing such
decisions in some test cases the plaintin
may have the jurisdictional question set
tied. and neither side be exposed to the
unnecessary burden Of trying the case on
the merits. with the chance OF the appel
late courts setting aside the Judgment
for lack Of Jurisdiction. The question
presented is one Of great Importance.
Probably there are few papers In the
United States which do not publish ad-
vertisements originating in this city, or
which do not solicit such advertisements
here. If this and the adjoining South
ern) district are for that reason 10 be con-
sidered the proper forum for suits against
the owners OF such papers, wherever
they may reside and conduct their busi-
ness of publishing and circulating such
business, it seems probable that our
calendars may be seriously overburdened.

of a strip of woods near the little fei-

OF strip OF woods near the little le'-
lows home was made.
To-day IL was learned that Samuel Hen
derson, aged -, whose home Is near tnat
OF the Lockyar family. had been seen IN
the woods with Percy. He at first denied
having seen the child. but on being close
ly questioned by the police, admitted
having been with him in the woods. lie
told several conflicting stories regarding
Percy's disappearance. at first declaring
that the little boy had left him to go 10
his home Then he said that while he
was whiting a stick with a large knife,
Percy had accidentally fallen against the
blade. which entered deeply into his
breast.
Henderson stated that the blood spurted
from the wound and the child fell dead.
Fearing he would be arrested, Hender-
son said, he threw the body into a creek
which flows through the woods. In con-
firmation Of this story, he led the search
ers TO where the boys hat and coat had
been hidden. They were identified by
Percy's parents. He also pointed out the
place in the creek where he had thrown
the body The creek was dragged for
quite a distance, but the body was not
found.
The police believe the story OF the
child's death, and are Of opinion that the
killing was the deliberate act of Hen
derson. They think that the body has
been carried down the stream, which was
unusually high last night, in consequence
Of a heavy rainfall.
Henderson Is I'm custody and the search
is being prosecuted tonight by twenty
five policemen.

THE UNITED MINE-wORKERs.
Defence Fund-IndianapoIis Now
Headquarters.

COLUMBUS, o., January 1.-THE ques-
ton OF a defence fund caused a lively de-
bate in the convention of the United
Mine Workers just before adjournment
this evening. A resolution was intro
duced providing that defence fund be
created, the fund to remain unmolested
until 10000 had accumulated The condi-
ton provoked a storm Of discussion.
While the opposition were in the minority,
the fight which they put up was so vigo-
rOus that they prevented the adoption OF
the resolution, and IL was referred back
to the committee. TO formulate bylaws
to govern the use of the defence fund.
There was a sharp skirmish over the
removal of the national headquarters OF
the organization from Columbus. as re-
commended by President Ra.tchford.
President Ratchford favored Cleveland.
but a combination was made which led
to Indianapolis being chosen as the loca-
ton for the headquarters.
1t was decided to hold the next conven-
ton in Pfttsburg the second Tuesday in
January. 1899.
The delegates to the convention, about
200 in number, will leave to-morrow for
Chicago, to attend the Joint conference
with the operators.
