against Moore and Reiman, two against

" zero also present Lawyers Herbert II,
Ward and Walter H. Hayes, Of Whining
ton, the we'll known Union Republican
lawyers, conducted the defense, while A'tor
ney General White aud Deputy Attorney
General Cooper represented the State.

cases and asked for stay until Magistrate

Tho court is In session tonight wrestling
with the two fold legal problem as to
whether it Is lawful to proceed to trial by
Judges instead Of by jury of the peers of
the accused cilizens; and whether the at
torney General can amend his in forma-
tions upon which the accused is arraigned
after his presentment to the court. After

Attorney General Whito admitted that
were this in form of indictments instead
of informations to the right to amend
but they had the full on informatons.
Mr.. Ward contendeh in support of the
demurlers. attacking the intormations,
that they were insufficient in that they
did not signify the jurisdiction OF this
court by setting forth the committing to
bail to the court by a Justice of the Peace;
also that they should have been in the
form of an indictment to the grand Jury
and jury OF the peers of the defendents.
There is little doubt that the court will
uphold the Constitution to tho letter, as
the court itself is sitting under the new
Constitution. Attorney General White is |
confident that they will go into trial Of the
cases tomorrow.

 have read a communication in yester- days News signed by that well-known and easily identified gentleman named "A Vot- er.'' He discusses an interesting subject, but there are good many things he left unsaid. I made some investigation, and re- membering that Manager Pearce is also an alderman and chairman of the committee on police and sanitation, I made some in quiries about the city prison.
 Meeting MT. w. Nj. Garner, I asked him about his having been city warden and about the method of purchasing the sup plies and about prices, etc.
 He states that three-fourths of the sup plies bought for the city jail while he as warden were purchased from John Fox's Sons. Everything bought for that depart ment was on the order of Alderman Pearce, and ho O. K.'d all bills. That he (Garner) received the goods, verified weights, meas ures, etc.

ALGER ISSUES ORDER.
Secretary of War Must Approve Orders
 to Chief of Staff Corps.

Washington, March 23.-Secretary Alger has issued the following order for the in- formation and guidance of all concerned:
 War Department,
 Washington, March 9, 1899.
 Ordered, that hereafter no chief nor-act- ing chief of staff corps shall be detailed or ordered to any duty by any authority without the approval of the secretary of war
 (Signed) R. A. ALGER, Secretary of War. This order of Secretary Alger has been issued to set at rest all questions as to who is the supreme authority in the war department. It is an old controversy, dat ing back to the time when Jefferson Davis was secretary of war; and General Scott, commanding general of the army. The last time the matter was brought promi- netiy to the attention of the country was during the administration of President Ar thur when Secretary Lincoln wrote a very caustic letter to Lieutenant General Sheri- dan@stating that the staff corps of the war department, with the exception of the ad- jutant generals and the inspector generals corps, were under~the direct control and subject only to orders by the secretary of War The order of Secretary Aiger will hereafter include the chiefs of those corps under the sole control of the secretary General Miles has held to the construction based upon the letter of Secretary LIncoln The cause for the issue of the order was a case between acting chief of the inspect or's corps during the absence of General Breckinridge, directing Lieutenant Garling- ton to visit certain points in the west on an inspection tour. The order of the secretary does not refer to General Breckinridge's present tuty in Cuba, as he is acting under orders issued by Secretary Alger.

HOBART WILL BE
 RUNNING MATE Of Mckinley in the Next Presi-
 dentiaI Campaign. MOST CORDIAL RELATIONS Exist Between the New Jersey Man and Senator Hanna and the Latter will See that His Friend
 is Nominated
MOST CORDIAL RELATIONS

Thomasvillo, Ga, March 23.-President Mckinley spent pretty much the whole of today in the open air, as did Vice-President Hobart. This outdoor life in mild and dry climate is doing much to tone up the system of each, and today eacn showed an improving state of health. Today when not at meals they were constantly in the the air, sitting on the porches or driving.
 The presidents programme after break fast is seat in a rocking chair on the porch until time to dispatch little business with Assistant Secretary Cortelyou. This is followed by a drive. Today this took the form of a tally-ho party, the whip being Chas. Chapin, Senator Hanna's nephew. President Mckinley, wearing a black der by, instead of the accustomed high hat, oc- cupied the box with him. Others of the party were the vice-president, Mrs. Hobart, young. Garrett Hobart, Senator Hanna and Miss Hanna. After light lunch at the house drive to the country club followed. Here the club, which is the recognized so- cial institution of Brownsville. entertained the party, and then the party drove around while, late afternoon again finding the party on the front porch.
 Tonight the president signed appoint ments, and transacted other Lecsssary busi- ness. The Jeykl island trip having caused reports of a conference there, and that Speaker Reed would be nominated for vice. president on the ticket with MT. Mckinley at the next republican convention, it can be stated again authoritatively that politics was tabooed at Jekyl island.
 Moreover, the statement can be made that the closest and most cordial relations, political and personal exist between the president, Hobart and Senator Hanna, and it has been fixed upon that the running mate will be Garrett Hobart. Tomorrow the party hope to escape all elaborate func- tions. Monday probably will find the pres ident started on his return journey to Washington, the vice-president and Senator Hanna remaining here.
