CHAPTER Xxx.

Nellie-the girl who would have been
wife, but for that tragic interruption
to the wedding-found it hard to live
down the disappointment which had
come to her with the knowledge of
Franks deceit.
Too proud to let her suffering be-
come a subject for daily comment
amongst those nearest to her, she had
gone about the house much as If
nothing of Importance had happened
Her bridal dress had been thrust out
of sight in an old chest.
Never again did she want to look
on those shimmering folds of white
the shroud in which lay buried her
dead love, the ruined hopes that she
herself had cast out from her life.
Twice Frank tried to see her, twice
he was refused admittance to the
house.
Then came letter from him.
That letter found its home in the
flames, with the seal unbroken, ard
Nellie watched the paper burn, with
scorn and anger III her eyes.
Lady Rayne left her to herself, and
did not allude to the tragedy that had
been enacted in the church her daugh-
ter had entered as a bride.
"She was right in her Judgment
against him." was Lady Rayne's in
ward comment. She could not have,
been happy as his wife, remembering
What had happened.
She was not surprised when, one
morning, at breakfast, Nellie express
ed desire to leave London.
"There is nothing going on Just
now" she said, "and we can come back
for the season. What is the use OF
place in the country, if we seldom go to
it?'

of the selling pressure came from the

OLD CASE REoPENED.
Settled In Court and Afterwards
Taken to the High Council.

Richfield, May 22.-Mormon confer
ence of this stake has been in session
all day yesterday and today. Apostles
Lyman and Teasdole were the only
visitors of note. Last night, before
the high council, the old case which
created so much i'll feeling during the
Spring of 1897, was brought up. The
case as it appeared in the district court
was entitled John Barlow VS.. z. e.
Peterson and A p. Rasmussen, and
was there settled in favor of the de-
PENDANTS, but the Barlows ever since
have not been satisfied with the YER
dict and took this step to try and get
justice Following are the facts that
led up to the trouble in the first place:
In the fall of 1895 the extension of the
Rio Grande Western, south of Salina,
was assured, the only uncertainty was
whether 1t would go on the east or west
side Of the Sewer river. AS an induce
ment to the company to build TO Rich
field instead of the east side, of the
river, the citizens of Richfield met in
mass meeting and voted that they give
the company the right of way from
the north boundary of the precinct to
the depot, and grounds. The company
accepted this proposition and were to
give Richhsld men the chance to DO all
the grading. A committee was elected
at a meeting Of the citizens held later,
consisting Of Z. c. Peterson, a. p. Ras-
mussen and Niels Poulsen, who was
later killed in a Clear Creek flood
These were to have charge of the grad
ing and the purchase of the right of
way, and who should receive SIC per
cubic yard for the grade. INSTEAD of
there being a surplus of $4,000 or 81, 600
in grading labor, over the purchase
price of the right of way, there was a
deficit of just $16.11.
Last night the whole matter was
brought up again with James-Barlow,
John Barlow, Niels P. Nelson and c.
7. Jensen, witnesses for the prosecution
and E. c. Peterson and n P Rasmus-
sen the two defendants. After trying
the case all over it was thought best
and advised that the members of the
different wards of this stake circulate
a subscription paper and in some degree
remunerate the prosecution for their al
legged loss.

LAND GRANT DECISIONS.
Mexican Grantors Had No Authority
to Convex Title.

U OOANey 4lI1S.
Washington, May 23-Two private
land grant cases were decided in the
United States supreme court today, one
involving the claim of NJ. B. Hayes to
the Chavez grant to 100000 acres of
land in New Mexico. and the other the
claim of Earl B. Coe to grant in Ari-
iona. In both cases the decision was
in favor of the government, the court
of private claims being affirmed in the
New Mexico case and reversed in the
Arizona case.
Justice White handed down the opin-
ion of the court in the New Mexico
case. It turned upon the point as to
whether New Mexico was a state or
territory of Mexico when the grant was
made. The court held that it was a
territory and that consequently the
authorities had no authority TO make
the grant.
The decision in the Arizona case also
turned upon the authority of the grant
ing powers to make the grant. In this
instance the grant was made by the
Mexican state of Sonora, in which the
land included in the grant was located.
In this case the court held that the
Sonora authorities were not competent
to act for the republic of Mexico.
Justice McKenna rendered the opin-
ion in this case, saying: 1.-THE proof
is ample to show that the national
laws were not pursued, and. besides. it
is conceded that at the time of the
grant the state of Sonora was in rebel
lion against the nation. 1t and its Of
ficers were therefore opponents of the
national authority, not its instru-
mentS."
Justice Brewer and Justices Brown.
Shiras and Peckham dissented from the
decision in the Coe case.

New York. May 2S-The level of prices
of stocks was lifted another notch as a
result of todays trading. The dealings
were not large and there was no general
activity in the market. That is TO say,
the volume of dealings in the speculative
favorites was not very large, and "a num-
Der OF important stocks were inactive.
AT the same time, it was noticeable that
a number Of usually inactive shares were
moved and this gave the market the APP
