An Important Decision.

A dispatch from Hagerstown
says: In the Circuit Court of
Washington County Judge Ed.
ward Stake gave an opinion on an
important point in practice. He
said, i'll his opinion. the old law
requiring the costs in an appeal
case to be paid by the appellants
before the appeal could be heard
was unconstitutional because the
constitution guarantees to every
one the right to trial by jury,
speedy, free and not to be bought.
He held if man is compelled to
pay the costs in a case before it is
beard and where there was a prob.
ability that the cost might not fall
upon him his constitutional rights
to a jury trial were interfered with.
The Judge said he had entertained
this view ever since he came upon
the bench in 1891.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1899-02-24
Low Necked Gowns,

The rule Of the season SO far has
been in favor of high necked gown
but oddly enough, with the incom,
ing Lent women who go dining
and to the opera. etc, wear low
cut, short sleeve waists, almost in
varibly trimmed with black vel
vet. If the adopter Of this Lenten
fashion has fair shoulders this
black velvet treatment sets them
off to admiration.
The shoulder straps and fresh,
handsome bows must he made of
duSky velvet, and invariably a
loose loop of velvet is allowed to
out on the arm between the elbow
and shoulder. Occasionally to
this loop is fastened a great ros-
cite of velvet that seems almost
TO simulate a short sleeve. again
a large, loose, petaled flower is
fastened to the loop, and The eff
feet is just as pretty. If a white
chiffon or silk bodice is worn, the
the black velvet treatment shows
to double advantage, and many
women iaSten to the loop below
the shoulder large white chrys-
anthemum, or a giant white silk
rose, and the consequence always
inspires envious admiration.

the Senators are confident OF get

said to oppose Tie canal only I've.
cause he is unwilling that work
should he begun upon it under
the Mckinley administration.
There are few Democrats in
Congress who are opposed to eur
paying the &20, goo. 600 to Spain
which the treaty Of peace calls
for, as most OF them recognize it
as treaty obligation which must
he paid. After the ruling out or
a point of order of tie Nicaragua
Canal bill, as an amendment to
the Suudry Civil bill, it was only
question OF waiting Tor the same
point to he raised against the
amendment providing for this APP
preparation, for it to receive the
same treatment. Two Seperate
bills have already been introduce
ed making this appropriation, one
by Mr.. Cannon and one by Mr..
Gillett. The latter'S bill also
contains the McEnery resolution.
Which the Senate adopted last
week. When vote is taken on
this appropriation, there will not
he half a dozen Democrats re
corded against it, although tine
Democrats aIe all practically OPP
posed to the permanent retention
of the Philippines. The prompt
payment of this money is a queS-
ton of national honor, not of
policy.
Senator Tillman got in good
joke on Senator Lindsay, when
he interrupted the latter'S argu-
ment in favor of abOliShing the
two years cruise that is now
portion of the regular course Of
naval cadets, 10y repeating the
old time verse, beginning,
"Molher, may 90 ont to swim?"
Amidst the laughter of the Sen
atorS and the occupants of the
galleries, Mr.. Lindsay declared
it was the best speech he had
ever heard Mr.. Tillman make,
and then proceeded with his own
speech.
Hon. G. V. Holman, a promi
nent Maine Democrat, who has
been looking over the political
field i'll Washington, said among
other interesting things: cit

permanent rupture among the
Republicans i'll the near future,

FROM THE CAPITAL
Our Correspondent Talks in
General About Wash
ington.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20, 1899.

According to statement made
by a member of the Court Of In
quiry. which this week begins
the taking of testimony on the
emhalmed beef charges. the court
regards itself as sitting as a
courtmartial to try General Miles
on the charge Of lying. although
without authority to pass sentence
should it find him guilty. No
0ther construction can he placed
upon this language, used by the
member of the court referred to:
owe look to Gen. Miles to prove
his allegations. We have no
concern as to The witnesses as to
that side of the inquiry, and it is
incumbent upon Gen. Miles to
secure and produce before MS those
whom he expects to establish his
case" In other words the court
believes Gen, Miles guilty, but
will give him a chance to prove
otherwise. Gen. Miles will pro-
duce SiXty.odd officers who re-
ported from the field against the
beet issued, including Gov.
"Teddy" Of New York, and the
| proof will be made so hot that it
is likely to Scorch Secretary Alger
and other officials as well as the
beef contractors.
There is some talk of a compro-
mise on the army bill, which is
now before the Senate, but it is
not coming from Democrats.
Senator Cockrell, who reported
the Democratic bill to the Senate,
says that measure will give the
administration temporarily all the
troops it can possibly have any
need for, and that further than
that he and his Democratic col
leagues are not inclined to go.
1t is believed by many that the
Semi-repudiation OF imperialism
made by Mr.. Mckinley in his
Boston speech was intended to
help the Hull army bill in the
Senate. This may or may not be
true. Democrats in Congress
were glad, of course, that Mr..
Mckinley should have diSclaimed
imperial intentions, but. believ-
ing the saying that acts count
for more than words, and having
their wits about them. they fail
to see the point Of the disclaimer.
while he insists upon having at
his command a large standing
army, and refuses to accept the
Democratic Offer of temporary
force large enough for his admit,
ted intentions. The Hull bill
| provides large number of juicy
plumS in the shape of commissions
for civilians in the regular army
and the attempt is being made to
get Democratic and PopuliSt sup
port for the bill by Offering big
chunckS Of this patronage to Sen
atorS. This week is likely to de-
termine whether the bill can be
passed or not.
The scheme to make this gov
ernment pay a private company a
subsidy of 500, 600 a year for 20
years for the use of a Pacific cable,
was thought to have been knock
ed out sometime ago, but it is on
deck again as an amendment to
the Sundry Civil bill, proposed
by Senator Frye 1t cannot he
knocked out in the Senate on
point of order as the Nicaragua
Canal bill was in the House, nor
can the same tactics he followed
in the house when the bill goes
back with Senate amendments.
That is why the Senators who are
trying to get the Nicaragua Canal
bill through have had what is
practically the Hepburn bill adj.
ded to the River and Harbor bill
as an amendment. They have
