VERDICT MUSTSTAND
Supreme Court Denies St. Louis
Railroad New Trial.

The supreme court in batch Of five
decisions handed down yesterday, af-
firmed the lower court in the case Of
Mickolai Mundal VS.. The Minneapolis
&, st. Louis Railroad Company. The
appeal was from a motion denying a
new trial, made by the railroad COM
pany.
Mundal sued for malicious prosecu-
ton, as a result of his arrest in Free
born county for the alleged offense Of
placing distractions on the railroad
tracks, and secured a verdict.
After lying in Jail for six months the
grand jury failed to return an indict-
ment, and he was released. The war
rant was issued for his arrest on the
statement of a special agent of the
railroad corporation that he had sub
mitted to sweating process and he
had confessed. The prosecution failed
to prove it's statement and to connect
Mundal with the specific act charged
against him. The court refuses to
grant a new trial.
Other decisions were as follows:

pany against Vincent Gippe defendant

QUESTION OF MILITARY LAW.
Benefits to Which Retired Marine Of
ficers Are Entitled.

Attorney General Moody, as the head of
the Department of Justice, will be called
upon to settle a question of military law
that arose in his administration as Secre-
tarv of the Navy The question is as to
whether officers of the Marine Corps on the
retired list who served with credit during
the war of the rebellion, are entitled to the
benefits of advanced rank and pay on the
retired hist, under the provisions of the vet
eran retirement section of the army appro-
priation act of April 3D. 1904 Two retired
marine officers have made formal applica-
ton for advancement on the retired list
under the provisions of the act in question,
and a brief has been submitted to the Navy
Department in support of their claim. Cen
orally the laws relating to retirements in the
army apply to retirements in the Marine
Corps and the only question in doubt is as
to the applicability to officers of the Marine
Corps of the beneficial provisions of the act
of April %. 1894.
Mr.. Moody declined to decide the question
while Secretary of the Navy, but will be
called upon to do SO in his new capacity as

that might also burn. Although the entire

fined to the structure in which 1t
started.

Bryan's contention will be for the reaiflrma-

delegation recognizes the improbablllty OF
securing such stand The discussion was
therefore devoted largely to the CONSIDER

No conclusion was reached, but the ten

liberal declarations can be secured, as IL Is
believed there can be. In that event MT.
Bryan will probably not make a platform
