THE ATTORNEYS WITHDREW
Sensational Halt in the Trial of IL
Michigan OfiicinI.

LANSING. Mich. March THE trial of
former Inspector General Marsh. for fraud
and embezzlement, was brought to an
abrupt and sensational end today by the
final withdrawal of his attorneys because
OF the courts denial of their motion for
continuance until May. Judge West
was very indignant at the attorneys ac-
ton, and read them most scathing lee
ture in open court. He assured Marsh
that if he was convinced that he was in
any way a party TO the action he would
require him 10 go to trial at once. How
ever, it being his duty TO protect Marsh
as well as the people, he decided to grant
a postponement until March go. so that the
defendant might procure new counsel.
Believing that the conduct OF the at
toTneys was most reprehensible. and that
they should be punished, the court APP
pointed a committee of prominent attor-
neys TO present the matter TO the Supreme
Court, renIarking that If trials can be
stopped by such summary conduct it was
time the courts knew 1t officially. He ex-
pressed the opinion that the attorneys
should be severely disciplined and that
the Supreme Court would see TO 1t that
they receive the punishment they deserve.
Speed & Pope expect 10 represent Marsh
at the coming trial, but may not be per-
mitted to do so.

BURIAL OF BISHOP cLAGETT.
Rev. SattcrIce's Representations on
the Subject to the Commissfoners.

| Concerning the proposed interment of
the remains of Bishop Clagett and his
wife in the grounds adjacent to the Epis-
copal Cathedral, Attorney Duvall has sub
mitted to the District Commissioners an
! opinion holding that authority to issue
the necessary permit is vested in them, il
they shall choose to exercise it, As the
opinion Is reasonably certain TO be ap-
proved by Commissioners Ross and Beach
! and has already received Mr.. Nights en-
dorsement, 1t is probable that Bishop Sat
terlee will be able TO renter the remains
of Bishop Clagett as he desires.
letter written at The Bishops
House" by Dr. Satterlee brought the mat
ter to the attention OF the municipal au
thorities. I'm October. 1885, he says. Il
obtained permission from the Health Of
fcer of the District of Columbia to place
temporarily in vault in the churchyard
of St. Adams Church, on the Tenleytown
Road. the remains of Bishop Clagett and
his wife. Bishop Clagett was the first
Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church
in Maryland. which then included the area
now occupied by the District of Columbia.
For that reason and for his personal quail
titles his memory is held in great rever-
ence by all the members of that body OF
Christians in tais District" After recit-
ing lndL the cDufCnydTG aGJOlnS the ca
thedral grounds, the letter continues: 1T
was thought appropriate that the remains
of the first Bishop who exercised his func-
lions in the District OF Columbia sho,ld
ultimately rest in the cathedral grounds.
and it was for the purpose of transferring
his remains to the intended cathedral that
they were placed in the present temporary
vault. In the reinterment of the remains
of Bishop Clagett and his wife, above de-
scribed, no sanitary question is in
volved, inasmuch as they have been dead
seventy-five years. Having been advised
that under the laws of the District as
now construed, you have authority to per-
nit the remains to rest permanently
where they now are or to be removed TO
the cathedral grounds and there to be per-
manently inferred. | respectfully ask that
you will grant me authority to perform
these acts"
In the opinion submitted by the Attor-
ney the preceding grants and permits are
recited and supplemented by the following
conclusion: LAS ] had the honor here
tofore to advise you, the act of Congress
approved January %, 1888. authorizes the
Commissioners to designate grounds out
side the city limits in which persons may
be buried. ] am of the opinion that under
the said act OF Congress the Commission
ers may designate the cathedral grounds
as private burial grounds for the purposes
indicated in the present application"

EVIDENCE FROM SOVEREIGN.
of the Occur d'AIene
Mining Troubles Continues.

John r. Sovereign continued his testi-
mony before the House Committee on Mil
itary Affairs yesterday in relation to the
Occur d'Alene mining trouble. The wit
ness described the miners Of that region
as a peaceful set of men and said the I'M
ions had set their faces against all man
ner OF violence. In the contests between
the miners and the operators the unions
always depended ON winning by moral and
not by physical force.
The witness read a number of edito-
rials from his paper, the Idaho Tribune.
to prove that they were not seditious, al
though attacking the owners of the Bunker
Hill Sullivan mine for not employing any
union labor. Sovereign claimed that his
testimony before the Industrial Commits
sion had been edited and attempted to
demonstrate this 10 the committee.
Representatives Hull and Lent argued
the point of admitting this testimony, and
it was finally agreed that if the committee
found any statements in SOyereign's tesu-
mony before the Industrial Commission
which were at variance with his testi-
mony before the committee he should be
given an opportunity to explain the appar-
ent contradictions.

ST. THOMAS DAY.


The Usual Ceremonies at the Cath
900 Ollie University
1.-The 9TH of March is the patronal feast
day-Feast of 81. I lopas Aquinas-of the
faculty of philosophy Of the Catholic Uni
versity. This year the feast was observed
with the usual ceremonies. Pontifeal mass
was sung by Most Rev Archbishop Keane
with Rev. John W Melody, of Chicago, as
assistant priest; Rev. Patrick j. Healy OF
New York, as deacon: Rev. Andrew j.
Burns, Of Chicago, as sub deacon, and Rev.
Daniel J. Sullivan. of Peoria, and Rev. NJ
F. McSorley, of Philadelphia, as masters
of ceremonies. The music was under the
direction of Rev. Placidus F. Feurst o. 5.
Il. Rev. f. 2. Rocker, Secretary of the
Papal Legation, preached the sermon.
Dr. Rocker took as the theme of dis
course the particular benefit which ST.
Thomas Of Aquin has bestowed upon philo-
sophie studies, from the point of view OF
the peculiar needs of ethical studies at the
present day. The thesis was that modern
ethics needs, above all other things, a
scientific basis from which to start and
upon which to build a scientific superstruc-
live. That this basis is lacking in the mod
ern systems Of ethics. DR.. Rocker showed
by considering the fact that modern sys-
tens treat rather the relation of human
facts to the will than their relation to
some standard by which their rectitude or
obliquity could be judged. and he claimed
that this standard for ethics, just as for
all other sciences can be nothing else than
some order which will govern and direct
human activities and human acts.
After the ceremonies in the chapel there
was a convoCation of the teaching corps
OF the university in the senate room, at
which the right reverend rector made a
statement concerning university matters.
The members OF the faculty of philosophy
together with the deans OF the other facul-
ties and the heads of the affiliated col
leges. were entertained at dinner by the
rector AT 400 o'clock Rev Dr. Kerby
Professor Of Sociology, delivered his sec
ond lecture in the public course in the

brought TO a close by benediction OF the
blessed sacrament in the divinity chapel,
