SUPREME COURT CoNvENEs.
District Murder Cases Will Be Called
Up Soon

The Supreme Court of the United States
convened yesterday at noon. The court
met promptly on the hour of u, the
justices taking their usual places on the
bench, clothed in their gowns of black.
The justices nodded to attorneys before
them as they took their seats. The court
room was crowded with spectators and
the space inside the rail assigned to at
torneys was also well filled.
The first business transacted was that
of the admission of attorneys About
twenty-five lawyers from various parts
of the country took the oath, including
Samuel Truitt and Charles H Crane of
the District Bar, and Private" James
Dalzell, of Ohio.
After the admission of these candidates
the court heard motions in different
cases, after which it adjourned until to-
morrow, when the active business of the
term will begin.
On account of the absence of President
Mckinley from the city the customary
call of the justices at the White House
was dispensed with.
The United States Supreme Court, at
this term, will dispose of several impor-
tant District matters. The Potomac
Flats case is among them, in which Hon
Holmes Conrad is special counsel for
the United States and is assisted by Mr..
Taggart. There are about forty attor-
neys, mostly of the District Bar, who
represent defendants.
The cases involving more than property
rights are those If William NJ. Strather,
Charles Winston and Edward Smith, con-
victed of murder and under sentence to
be hanged. They are asking the Supreme
Court TO reverse the Court of Appeals
and the trial court for erroneous con-
struction of the act of January Is, 1897.
which the defendants hold abolishes the
death penalty in Federal jurisdictions.
The lives of these three men depend on
the determination of these cases, and
about five or six more men in the District
jail under indictment for murder will also
be affected by it.
This act has had various constructions
by United States judges in Boston, Texas,
and elsewhere, but IL is said that in no
other court has 1t been construed as here.
Today at noon the cases VIII be called
to the attention of the court, and it is
| understood that the Attorney General will
do all he can to have this important mat
ter adjudicated.
1t is not likely that any murder cases
| will be tried in the District till the ques-
| tions presented have been settled by the
court of last resort.
Attorneys will appear in the Supreme
| Court today with a petition for writ
of certiorari in the caseaof Jesse Mac
Daniel, convicted in Maryland of using
| the malls for lottery purposes.

been about 200. which is 81, 100 more
than last year. In speaking of the results
of the work in Brazil the report gays that
no work in the church ever multiplied as
that has, while the expense TO the home

THE STOCK MARKET.

New York, Oct. 10.-The news OF the
morning and the technical developments
In the stock market were not OF an en-
couraging character and the day began
with selling for both speculative accounts
quite general throughout the market. The
general character of the dealings did not
indicate that the mornings situation ap-
peaed as strongly to outside holders of
securities. as it did 10 the professional
room traders, as the business of commits
sion houses was very limited. The Lon
don stock market was depressed in all
its divisions by the serious foreign poll
teal questions now occupying the atten-
ton of the British government. There
was pronounced weakness in Sugar Re
finery and a further decline in Northern
Pacific common. Doubtless the course OF
the latter stock was the more effective
as affecting the tone OF the market
American Tobacco was notably actixe
and in the morning dealings the stock
advanced several points on the announce
ment of the acquisition of the Drummond
Company, Of st. Louis. Negotiations for
progress, and there is reason to believe,
with some chance of success, but 1t is
doubtful whether the public will dance
even to such music after its months ex-
perience with the manipulation OF Ameri-
can Tobacco. AT any rate. the stock
lost all of its mornings rise in the later
dealings. There was some uneasiness dis
cernible in the forenoon in regard to the
expected decision of the Supreme Court
in the case of the Joint Traffic Associa-
tion, and the market became temporarily
firmer when It was announced that there
would be no decisions handed down by
the court today. AS restrictive influence
in the market the matter is, of course,
only postponed. but its Importance would
seem to be overrated in view of the cur
rent rates situation.
Foreign houses were sellers in this
market, particularly of those shares af-
fected by the yellow fever outbreak, Il
linois Central and Louisville and Nash
vile. The declines in the granger shares
were not severe and seemed TO be en-
tirely in sympathy with the weakness.
