The final adjudication of a legal con-
tcoyersy OF exceptional character IN the
history of litigation il Virginia, involv-
ing both public and private property in-
I. .r.s. has been referred to the Circuit
court of Alexandria county ia an order
transferring the suit of the Winchester
Memorial Hospital against the Hand
lev board of trustees and the city OF
Winchester, trustee under the will Of
John Handley, from the Circuit Court
of Frederick county to the Alexandra
jurisdiction for hearing before Judge
Chas. +. Nicol. The vOluminous docu-
ments in the suit have been received BY
Mr.. George Fl. Rncker, the clerk of the
Circuit Court for Alexandria county, by
express from Winchester. The hearing
will occur at the next regular term OF
the court, the latter part of this month,
and probably be in progress for several
DAYS.
The litigation. which was primarily
Instituted by Robert NJ. Ward, an Of
toruey of the city OF Winchester, to eh-
lect a claim for 81, 600 from the trus ees
of a fund of $500, 900, bequeathed to the
municipality of Winchester for philan-
thropic purposes under the will OF John
HsndIey of Scranton, Pa, is being
prosecuted by the Winchester Memo
rial Hospital as assignee of the claim
of Mr. Ward. Though the city
OF Winchester is named as one OF the
defendants in the suit, the action IN re-
atty is against the Handley board OF
trustees. Ii is claimed that the city
owns the money and that the Handley
board of trustees has no authority over
il, except in an administrative capacity
At the hearing in the Alexandra
court the complainant will be represent
ed by Attorney w. Roy Stephenson, OF
Winchester, while Attorney Holmes
Conrad aud r. E. Byrd. also OF Win
chester, will appear for the defendants.
1t is shown by the court records that
the cause was removed from the circuit
court of Frederick county on account OF
the refusal of Judge I. w. Harrison
of that court to preside at the hearing
Judge Harrison, it is said, considered
that his personal interests in the issue
'nads it improper for him to sit during
abe proceedings.

ment was made today. Among those

No fish had landed at the corporation
wharf tnis morning, although small lots
had been anticipated. Prices conse'
quently became frmer and in some IN
stances slight advances we're noted. The
spring weather, it WAS thought, would
bring some srad aud herring higher up
the river. but no catches were reported
in fresh water. The recent currents and
attendant muddy water have retarded
operations.
