LITIGATION MAY FOLLOW


MAGISTRATE PRITCHETT ISSUES
A WARRANT AGAINST A DEAD
MAN.
On landlords warrant, issued
against dead man, Constable Hughes
yesterday afternoon seized the personal
property Of the late Robert McCadden
at the Delaware House. opposite the
City Hall, and it was carted away to
be sold to satisfy the claim.
In making out the warrant Magis-
trate Pritchett must have lost sight OF
the fact that McCadden was dead, fol
he not only directed it against McCad-
den, but worded it "on the premises
now occupied by the said Robert Nc
Cadden."
For a time the constable was at q
loss how to proceed. Walter H. Hayes
advised him to go out to Riverview
Cemetery and make his return from
there. Finally he took the bull by the
horns, entered the hotel and seized the
goods. Letters have been taken out on
McCadden's estate, and litigation may
follow.

In another column we print the
statement of the guard at Kirkwood
Park. His talk is plain, and we credit
him with manliness for his action in
making his position plain. But where
there is so much complaint there must
be some ground for it. The guard ad-
mits that he goes of duty at 10 O'Clock
at night and that after that hour there
is no special officer, but the preserva-
ton Of the peace is left to the Police
Department, which has but general su-
pervision. We do not care who is on
duty, or who is on duty, the park is a
place for public recreation: for lib.
erty without license. and an observ.
ance Of the proprieties should be rig.
idly enforced at all times. The guart
cannot be held accountable for thing,
which occur there when he is on duty
but the park is part Of the city. an,
the patrolmen on that beat should b.
made to understand that they have
duty in the matter at any hour of tn
day or night

AppoINr A SENATOR.

When Governor Stone, Of Pennsylya-
MIA. wound up the legislative senatorial
deadlock by appointing Hon. Matthew
S. Quay. thereby exercising what he
believed to be a constitutional preroga-
tive Of his Office, we urged Governor
Tunnel to follow his example. Thus
far he has ignored the advice and the
vacancy remains. Now we desire to
call his attention to certain utterances
made by United States Senator Chaun-
cey NJ. Depew. who, upon his arrival
in New York from Europe, was asked
what would be his attitude when the
matter Of seating Senator Quay came
up. said:
/ will vote for the rule to seat any
senator appointed, for my understand
ing Of the Constitution is that II was
never intended to leave a state unrep-
resented. even If that states Legisla-
ture failed in its duty to elect a SEN
ator.
With such an expression Of opinion
coming from such man and at such
time. we believe that it is Cover
nor Tunnell's duty to appoint a man,
TO the end that Delaware may, at the
approaching session Of Congress. have
her full representation in the upper
chamber. It will not be wise or polite
for the governor to defer this matter
until after the Senate has passed on
the Quay case.

We gave to the world yesterday af-
ternoon the exclusive information that
the effort to secure a pardon for Colo
mel E. T. Cooper had failed because Of
the refusal Of Judge Bradford and ex-
United States District Attorney Lewis
c. Vandegrift. or either Of them, to rec
ommend the application. This news
came in the nature Of a shock to a
public, which had given the movement
such unqualified approval Colonel
Cooper did not ask to have any time
taken on He merely wanted the presi-
dent to remove from him, so far as he
was able. the stigma attached to his
Incarceration. BY reason Of the red
tape surrounding the Department Of
Justice the president viii not even see
the petitions because the action o
Judge Bradford and Mr. Vandegrif
prevents. II Is a sorry state OF affairs
