THEY MARCHED In.
Trouble at the National Cemetery.


Some excitement was created on
Memorial Day at the National Gene
tary. It seems that Phil Kearney
Post, No. 10 (white) gave George A.
Custer Post. No. IL. the sum of SIS
which had been collected for the deco
ration Of graves.
This would have been all right, but
it left instructions for them to 60 to
Seven Pines and decorate the graves
there, "a it had been to the National
Oemetary in the morning and decorat-
ed the graves.
But the colored veterans had previ-
ously decided to visit the cemetary
near this city and declined to change
their arrangements.
When they reached the place. they
found the gates locked and the keeper
informed them that he had received
Instructions from Phil Kearney Post,
No. IL not TO admit them.
A consultation followed, which re-
suited in the opening Of the gates and
the colored veterans marched in, much
to the satisfaction of tie crowd which
accompanied them.

Among those present were II. f,
Jonathan, Gilbert K Pollock, John
Mitchell, Jr., and Capt. BENZ Scott.
Quite an exciting scene took place
during the taxing OF the affidavit of
Andrew Smith, Jr., who served the
notices.
Mr.. Pollock blurted out "If he sw ear
to that I'll put him in jail"
de referred to the statement OF
Smith that he had served the notices
upon the contestees in person whereas
in Pollock's case, he had delivered the
notice to the father of Mr.. Pollock.
He added. "I accept service, but II
he bwears to that I'll put MIN in iail. -
Mr.. Royan WAS all ablaze in an in.
slant. III have no such language as
that here. You shall not speak iu
such manner during Q judicial pro
ceeding."
1T is not q judicial proceeding" re-
spen ded Mr.. Pollock" 1t ia q judicial
proceeding" replied Mr.. Royal. and
ysu shall not do it. II you wish to
protest, enter it in the record, but you
shall not use such language in my Of
nee, III report you to the courtI I'lI
report you to the court.
Ii your counsel desires to enter any
thing on the record he can do so, but
I'll have nothing to do with you"
This terminated the discussion aud
Mr.. Pollock subsided at once.
A qualifying statement was then
made pV Smith ating that he had de-
hvered the notice to Pollock's father
as required by law.
Mr.. wENDENBURo's PROTEST..
John Mitchell, Jr., was then syorr
and soon after the taking OF his de 90.
sition was commenced, Mr.. L. O. Wen.
denburg, counsel for the contestees
appeared.
Being advised as to the progress OF
the proceedings, he quietly entered :
protest against the taking of deposi.
tlons, alleging that reasonable notice
had not been given his clients, hayipp
received il, Saturday night and that al
OF tAem had not agreed upon counsel.
de also stated that he intended tc
argue the question of jurisdiction be.
fore the Judge of the Hastings court
and II over-ruled would demur to the
petition.
Mr.. Royal patiently permitted him
to enter this upon the record, and
then without further advice proces ded
to take deposition of John Mitchell
Jr' At about minutes to IL O'Clock
the proceedings were adjourned until
4:lo z. NJ, and all went to the Hust-
lngs Court where the motions of Mr.

submitted were to be argued before
