PURE:

in the equity suits for losses occasion
ed by his misconduct is another and
very different question from his crimi-
nal liability to the Commonwealth of
Virginia for embezzlement of the funds
of the bank. And this reasoning is still
more cogent where the respective courts
belong one to the State and the other
to the Federal systm. Embezzlement
by an officer of n bank organized under
State statute is not an offense which
can be inquired into or punished by n
Federal court. The Circuit Court could
not, in the first instance, have taken
jurisdiction of the offense charged in
the Indictment, nor can 1t by bill in
equity, withdraw the case from the
state court, or suspend its proceedings.
No case can be found where an injunc-
ton against 4 State officer has been
upheld where 1t was conceded that such
officer was proceeding under valid
State statute. In the present case the
Commonwealth's Attorney. represented
the State OF Virginia, and the injunc-
tons were therefore in substance in
functions against the State.
We are of opinion, then, that Il Court
or Equity. although having a jurisdic-
lion over person and property In n case
pending before It. Is not therefore vest
ed with jurisdiction over crimes COM
mitted in dealing with such property
ny Il party before the civil suit was
brought. and cannot restrain by in
junction proceedings regularly brought
IN a criminal court having jurisdiction
OF the crime and of the accused. Much
more are we of opinion that Circuit
Court OF the United States, sitting in
equity in the administration of civil
remedies, has no jurisdiction to stay by
Injunction proceedings pending in n
state court in the name of the State
to enforce the criminal laws of the
State.

EPIDEMIC OF MENINGITIS.
a Kentucky Town Runs out of Cot
fins for the Dead.

Lexington, KY. Feb. IA letter TO the
Daily Leader from Morgantown, the coun-
~ seat Of Butler county, in the Western
part of kentucky. fifteen miles from any
railroad says an epidemic Of spotted fever
or spinal meningitis Is raging there, old
and young dying rapidly.
It is Impossible to estimate how many
have died. and there is no one to report
The true condition. II Is known that there
are no longer any collins in the place TO
bury the dead. The people are panic strick-
en- and fleeing in all directions. II is re-
ported that there are now only few left
to nurse those who are stricken and are
he 9less.
The female seminary and the public
schools are closed The physicians have
been doing heroic work, but seem powerless
to check the disease.
Morgantown is a place of 100 inhabi-
tants. situated on a Hill and has been con-
sidered very healthy. Several large saw
mills are located there, ana the theory adj
vanced is that the decaying sawdust start
ed the epidemic.

SUSPENDED FOR SIX YEARS.
PRESIDENT COMMITTEES EAGAN'S
SENTENCE OF DISMISSAL.

The COmmissnry General VIII he
Allowed To Return to the Army in
Time TO Retire With Regular Rank
and Pay-Wiu Continue TO Draw
His Salary, hut Must Lose His Al
lowances-Was Saved by His
Record.
Washington, Feb THE President to-
day caused to be promulgated the sentence
IN the case of Gen. Charles r. Eagan.
The courtmarual sentence was dismiss
sal from the army, and the President has
committed this 10 six years suspension
from duty, which covers the remainder Of
the time prior to Gen. Eagan's retirement
in January, 1905.
The following is the text of the order Of
the President:
The accused, after a trial by court
martial composed of officers of high rank
and distinguished service has been found
guilty of conduct unworthy an officer hold
ing commission of the United States
and obnoxious in the highest degree TO the
discipline and good order of the military
establishment. Such behavior Is espec-
tally deserving of condemnation in an Off
Ger holding high rank in the army and
charged with the performance of difficult
and important administrative duties in a
time of great pubic emergency, and from
whom, when subjected TO adverse criti-
cism, an unusual degree of restraint and
constant and unfailing self-control are
confidently expected.
The Proceedings Confirmed.
The proceedings finding and sentence
in the case of Brig. Gen. Charles p.
Eagan, commissary general of subsistence,
United States army, are therefore approx
ed. IN view, however, of his gallant con-
duct in battle, upon more than one occa-
sion, which merited and has received the
warm commentator of his superiors and

in duration that usually allotted to a gen

1t was stated by the adiutant genera,
that Gen. Eagan's suspension carries him
to within a few days of his retirement
under the age limit. He will be REIN
stated in time 20 retire with the regular
rank and ray provided in such cases.
The sentence of suspension. according
to the legal officers of The department,
does not deprive Gen. Eagan of any part
of his pay. but as the sentence reads
without rank and duty" he loses his al
lowances which include communication OF

allowance. This is quite large financial
item.
