Few lawyers in the United States have
figured in larger number Of famous
cases than Judge Jeremiah M. Wilson,
who died in Washington while acting as
leading counsel for Rear Admiral Schley.
He was generally acknowledged to be
the foremost of all the bright inteilects
at the Washington bar and his appear
ance before the United States Supreme
Court never failed to be the signal for
the closest attention by the justices, who
had a high regard for his clarity of mind
and rare powers Of analysis. Judge Will
son earned his judicial title forty years
ago, when he served with distinction on
the Common Pleas and Circuit Court
benches in Indiana. He also served an
Indiana district as Representative in
Congress during the terms Of 1871 and
1873, after which he went into a law
partnership with Congressman Shellabar-
ger, and took part in many famous cases,
both civil and criminal. He was attor-
ney for the Union Pacific Railway for
many years, and for the Mormon Church.
He acted as counsel in the Star Route
trials, the Holt will case, the Breckin-
ridge-Pollard breach of promise case, the
trial Of Captain Howgate, the court-mar-
tial proceedings against Gen. Swain, the
Oberlin Garter case, the Venezuela, Ala
bama, French spoliation, and many other
noted cases. In his death te country has
lost one Of it's best legal minds.

ing that it might be necessary for him to
surrender and advising what to do in such
case was actually instruction to sur
render, and they condemn him according
".
The people Of England have generally
stuck to Gen. Butler throughout, and his
and his wife's social influence has been
most powerful and has even reached the
court, says a London correspondent. 1t
had been decided that he would be ele-
waited to the peerage ON the next honor
list. The Standard attacks him severely
and tells him that the best thing he can
do now is to resign his command of the
First army corps. The Daily Mail, which
considers that the speech would have been
more in place on the boards of a theater,
points out that the message to Ladysmith
is exactly paralleled by Sir H. Parker's
famous order to Admiral Nelson at Co
penhagen to break off the battle and re-
tire in order-a request which posterity
has unsparingly condemned.
Stung by the public cutlery against the
unsatisfactory conditions in South At

since the war, has assumed the defensive,
with Mr.. Brodrick, the secretary of war,
as its spokesman. In so doing he showed
that in her efforts to conquer the Beers
Great Britain now has under arms the
enormous total of more than 100000 men.
Mr.. Brodrick insists that the government
has kept it's promise to Lord Kitchener
that he should have free hand in his
command. He adds that he has not only
been given all the men asked for, but

The adjutant generals report on the
standing of the G. A. r. shows that death
is making its steady inroads on the mem
bership of the organization. The num-
Der lost by death during the year ended
lure 80. 1901, was S.16G, and the total
membership of the order is now placed
at 2G9.507. This is the smallest mem
bership given in any annual report since
the early days of tho organization. The
death and suspension Of members is part
ly made good by restoration to good
standing and the addition of new MEM
bers. But notwithstanding these, the gap
grows steadily wider.
In ten years past the membership Of
the Grand Army has dropped from $685.
OCT to 269,5O7, loss of 128,5GO, The
annual loss in each Of the seven past
years is given in the following table:

Since 1895 the Grand Army has lost
little over $4,000 in numbers. This, how
ever. measures only approximately the
loss by death among the members of the
order, and it does not take into account
the deaths among those who never Joined
the Grand Army. Probably not more
than one third Of those who fought in the
war have been enrolled among the boys
In blue. The deaths among the latter
have been in as large, if not larger, pro-
portion, and it is consequently within the
truth to say that during the past seven
years 100000 veterans have joined the
grand army in the beyond. The next sew
en- years is likely to see still greater in
roads. The increasing age of those who
remain and their growing inirmities must
make great gaps in the Grand Army
membership and among the enrolled vet
Grams. The fading of the army is steady
and sure, and soon only a remnant Of
those who fought to save the Union will
be left to tell the story.

ing the article was printed and ready for
distribution before the President was
shot Also that it was a quotation from
an article published fifty years ago and
reprinted by him fifteen years ago. After
imposing the sentence Judge Hinsdale
read the opinion of the court, in which he
said:
''It is no answer to the evil and Grim
mai nature of this article to claim that
it was written for the purpose of de-
stroying crowned heads. 1t inculcates and
enforces the idea that murder is the prop
er remedy to be applied against rulers.
The fact that it was published fifty years
ago and republshed about fifteen years
ago only emphasizes and gives added
point to the criminalty of the republish-
ing of it at any time. 1t shows deliberate
intent to inculcate and promulgate the
doctrines of the article.
This we hold to be a criminal act

ton in this article with the assassination

Sir Redvers Butler. who gained promi-
hence in the early part of the Transvaal
war because he was so repeatedly defeat
ed by the Beers, has been stung by press
critics into tacit acknowledgment that
after his defeat at Colenso, on Dec. Is,
1899, he photographed a message advis-
ing Sir George Stewart-White to surren-
der Ladysmith, with it's garrison of 12,-
900 British soldiers. The admission has
created an extraordinary sensation
throughout England, and Gen. Butler is
denounced severely.
Gen. Butler has been goaded by the
press for his repeated failures in the
early part of the war, and his critics have
been especially active since his recent
appointment to command an army corps.
In a speech Gen. Butler denounced his
critics and asserted that nobody junior
to him in rank was better fitted to COM
mand an army corps.
Gen. Buffers speech has made a tre-
mendous stir. The newspapers are di-
vided in their opinions of it. Several
papers declare that his explanation that

DEATH OF THE AMER.
Habibu1lah Khan Is Now Potentate in
Afghanistan.

HabibuIlah Khan Is Now Potentate In
Afghanistan.
The report of the death Of Abdur Rah-
man Khan, Ameer of Afghanistan, has
been confirmed and Europe will have an
opportunity to see a test of the theory
that it was the Ameer's life which stood
in the way Of clash between Russia
and Great Britain. The Ameer's eldest
son, Habibullah Khan, has been officially
proclaimed Ameer and the accession has
been accepted by his brothers and the
sirdars. Before his death the old Ameer
warned the Afghans against the Rus
slams.
Habib Khan Is an unknown quantity
outside his own country. It is possible
that he has been trained to follow in his
fathers footsteps and will endeavor to
initiate that willy orientaTs policy of keep
ing on good terms with both Briton and
Slav. 1t is not his possible attitude to-
ward foreign governments, however,
which has been a cause Of apprehension.
The fear has been that he would be I'M
able to hold in check the motley hordes
of semi-organized Ghilzais, Duranis,
Aimaks and Talks who roam over At
ghanistan in more or less subservience to
a somewhat patriarchal government. An
outbreak Of disorders in the country, with
a consequent menace to Russian or Brit"
ish interests, would give a pretext for
Intervention. It Is with the knowledge
of these conditions and Of the fact that
Russia's road to India and the sea lies
through Afghanistan that both the inter
ested powers have watched so carefully
over the Ameer's health.

that he had declared he was sorry that
