LIKCOI.K , Nov. 23. [ Special TclcKrnm to
the Hri ! . ] The supreme couit handed down
to day the opinion In the Omaha police case ,
entitled Slmcrul vs Scavcy , In which the
court holds that the law creating the police
commission Is valid and operative ; that the
npiHjlntmenlof Seuvcyas chief of pollto un
der the law was valid , and n legal appoint
ment within Iho scope and meaning of the
net. In regard to the constitutionality of the
law , the court held that the provisions of
the act whereby it is m.ido the duty of the
poveuior to appoint n board of
lira and police commissions s for
each city of the metropolitan class ure not
repugnant to the constitution. The opinion
is wiitlcn by Judge Cobb and concuncd in
by the other Judges. The written opinion
covers thirty pages anil discusses in full all
the salient points miscd by counsel. Judge
Cobb , in discussing the opinion , snystlieeom-
plnint is in substuncoa quo wutr.into with a
genei al object to obtain a judgment against
the respondent Kca\ey upon bis light to exec -
c ute the office of thief of police ; that the pe
titioners set up that the members of the
bo.i id of liio and police neglected to enter
Into good and sufficient bonds ; that they pre
tended to make appointments , while no inles
mid i emulations liud been adopted by the
council togovein thorn. The petition churned
that the appointments of the bo , ml by the
govcinoi weio invalid because not made by
and \vlth the consent of the senate. The net
cre.iling metiopolltnn cities , .Indgo Cobb
holds , was not an amendment , but an Inde
pendent statute , designed to bo pei feet in it-
celf and by section 1TII repealed the net
ci eating cities of the liist class and
all acts In conflict therewith ; that it contained
mi emergency clause and took effect and be
came a law immediately after it passage.
Thuo was no provision in the new law con
tinuing nnj officer in power , and it is cle.irl.v
the intent and within the scope of the net to
establish a new go\ eminent for the cities
named in its class. In tcgaiel to the section
of the hi\\ reuniting the goxcinor to appoint
u bo.ud of llto mid police commissioners ,
the comt holds that there can be no doubt
as to tin ) intent ot the law mid
while provisions mo found in the net which
the nmor and t ouncil ibid authority , it does
not follow that the section Itself can bo no
gleet eel The power giving the ma\or mi
tlioilty with the council to establish night
watch and ] ioliie is a geneial ptovision and
must not take1 the place of the definite scc-
tionricatlngtlie bo.ud. 'J'lie coin tliolds that
tlio constitutional clause conecining the im
posing of taxes on the municipality is not
violated. It is held by tlio comt that
tlio plea that the geiveinor's appointments *
should bo made by and with the
consent of the senate , is not good , tli.it the
governor shall appoint is mnnelutoi y without
caiij ing the consent of tlio senate with it.
In icgaid to the aigumcnt that the legisla-
tuio had not powi'r to make party ulliliatxm n
quiillllcution for olllce , the eoiitt lioldtt that ,
tlio language of the act is simply diicctory tt
the govemor and Unit whether the
mipolnteos ui o of one pai U or all pat ties , erne
no patty , nfloe'ts not the legality of the up-
pointmeiits To the question of the act mak
ing the governor the appointing power , and if
that is not lopilgnant to the constitution , the
court holds it is not. The application , as made
tothoeomt. is therefoio denied , mid the
cause dismissed.

The Injunction Suit Analnwt tlio Chi-
UHKCI GlIM Tl'IIHt IS DlNllllsNCCl.
Ciuc'Acio , Nov. 2.1. [ Special Telegram to
the HEK. ] One hunched and fifty thousand
dollars Is snld to bo the price that the Chicago
cage ( ras tiust paid the Hoffman estate of
New York for -400 shares of stock In the Chicago
cage Gaslight and Coke company to day and
by means of which transfer the Injunction
suit and application for n receiver for the
Chicago Gaslight and Coke company by the
executor of the Hoffman estate of New York
City , which was in hearing before Judge
Tulley several dais last week , was dis
missed by the pontiffs attorney this morn
ing. The par vulile of the shares Is * 2o , so
that the premium is 1100 per cent. It is also
said that the gas trust will pay all the legal
expenses which the estate has Incurred so
that on the whole New York Is ahead and
Chicago fur behind on to day's transaction.
Moses & Newman , the Chicago lawyers for
the Hoffman estate , In the matter did not
feel at liberty to mime the amount but said
that his firm were acting under dltect In
structions for the New Yoik lawyers and
had not been consulted as to the advisability
of the settlement , Mr. Newman expressed
the icgiet of his firm that they had not been
allowed to curry on the litigation to the
end. Ho continued : "This is tlio
( list time in the history of rot potato litiga
tion that a stockholder has ever attempted to
have a receiver appointed for n corporation.
Hitherto the couits have always refused to
make such appointments Hut wo managed
to get possession of such damning facts
against the gas tiust and the gas company
that the comt would have been compelled to
appoint u leech or The lawyers rcpicsctit-
Ing the gas tiust and gas company knew tli.it
.ludgo Tulley would appoint a icceiver and
theiefoio they luUised their clients to send
an agent to New York and they did send two
gentlemen who have been in New Yoik for
ten da\s can ymg on negotiations. "
It was subsequently learned from nn undc-
niabl.\ trustworthy source that one of the
emissaries to New York repiesenting the
tiust was E , G. Ten man of 1'oiiuan llios. ,
bankeis , also that one of the damning facts
alluded to was that a number of Philadelphia
mid Chicago capitalists formed a combination
to contiolall the gas companies In Chicago
and in order to do so they organized what
has been known as the gas trust whose busi
ness it was to manage all the companies and
to paj out thcpiiiflts in the way of salaiics ,
etc. , so that the stockholder would get
nothing nt all sind they placed a $10000,000
moitgago on the piopeity of the Chicago
Gas Light mid Coke company and divided
$7c'00HH ( ) of it among themselves. This is
now spei'illcallj known to bo u fact. The
ouginal bill was for an injunction to resit am
the Chicago Gas Ltjdtt and Coke company
from issuingn MOXHi,000 ( mortgage upon the
piopeity Tneir clients held 100 shines
of stock in this company They fe.uecl
that the issuance of atho moitgago would
swamp the eoipoi.itionnnd Unit the moitgago
was simpli intended as an instrument by
which the manipulators should wieek the
gas company because the company could
neer hne paid tlio mtei est on the bonds
and upon fiiiluie to pay the interest the
holdeisof the bond would have foicelosed
and then the syndicate would have bought
the piopcitj , just us thej did in the case of
the Consuinois Gas company. In speaking
of this p.ut of the subject Mr , Newman said :
"tt'ci found that they , ( the Chicago Gaslight
& Cokoeompanj ) pi clouded to ha\o made the
moitgago and to have issued the bonds and
sold them to the Union National bank of
Chicago for7lK)0,000. ) Upon this view of the
ease our injunction to restrain them from
doing what they had already done would have
been useless. Wo therefore concluded to
change our position , to amend our bill and
apply for the appointment of a receiver. "
The motion for a receiver was argued befoio
Judge Sullcv lust week mid betook the mat
ter under advisement. "Wo icgret the cessa
tion of hostibtcs" said Mr. Newman. Tlio
appointment of a icceiver would have dc-
strojedtho distiust. They would not have
conti oiled the plant , wo weie not consulted
by our New York lawj ers or clients as to the
piopnetv of selling the stocks. First wo
were asked to cany on the litigation and
iifteiwutds to dismiss it. "

a letter to Acting Land Commissioner Stock-
singer In reference to the D. C. Hudeltson
land case from McCook , Neb. , which Is of
more than local Interest. The following Is
its full lext : "I haveconsldeicd the appeal
of D. C. Hudeltson from jour oftlco decision
of May 2 , ' , IbWJ , denjing his application to
miiko homestead entry for the northeast
quaiter of section 25 , township 7 uoith , range

ho retuined to Kansas for Iho puiposo of
closing up his affairs piep.uatory to lemov-
ing poimancntlj' to his homestead claim. Ho
sajs in his letter dated Mai ch 20 , ISMi , and
filed in support of his appli
cation , that it wus impossible for him
to return in the full and
since Jnnuurj' 1 the winter has been so seveto
that ho could not move with his fnmilj and
joung stock till the present time ; that ho ar

Smith. This affidavit is duly corioboratcd.
Tlio circular of December 15 , Ibvi , allows

named in the dcclarutorj1 statement after the
expnation of the six months after the date of

satisfaclorily shown mid wlicio no adverse

tlie discietion of this office to allow any entiy
upon another tract piovldecl that it shall bo
shown to tlio full satisfaction of the commis-
sioneis that the default was practically be
yond the power ot the claimant to avoid'
The applicant has not In this ease piesentcd
a state of facts thai brings it within the pro
visions of this eiicular. He does not state
imy of the citcuinstances that pi vented his
retui n lo the land in the fall of Ibs5 , before
the selting in of cold weather , neither docs
he show that the winter of ! Ssr > bO was ex
ceptionally se\oie , or that travel wus inter
rupted by stoims or snow blockades. In
short , theie is nothing in his application to
show that ho honestly endeavored to comply
witli Iho requnemenls of the laws and was
pievenled theiefiom by ciicumstnnccs be
yond his contiol. Your said decision is
affirmed. "
The secrelnry's decision in the appeal case
of U. G. Giimian , of the McCook land chs-
liicl , also involves a general question. Gil-
lillan made a timber culture enlry Januaiy
14 , IbbT ) , and July 2IbW , tiled a relinquish-
ment. On June 2 , IbbO , ho filed his petition
to have his light icstoied and at the same
time filed un application for another entry.
In passing upon that application the land
commissioner said. "It seems that the paity
relied too much upon the topi osculation of
others in making his cntrj' . I musttlicrefore
decline his request and for the fin ther i casern
that the law of Juno 1 , lb7S , ullows but one
timber chum entry. "
Tiom this decision Gilfillnn appealed. Thi
application is accompanied by the affidavit of
the applicant , duly iquoboiated , which sets
out in substance that he was induced to make
the llrst entrj' by tlio false lepiesenta
turn of n certain locator , whc
ivpi esented that theicwiisno right or clain :

Unit there would bo no tionble in this nppll

Unit ho wasajoung man , onljtwentvono

ceived and misled as lo the fuels concerning
tlio land. When lie leatned that he hud been
misled and had no chance to hold or get Uils

sajs to the commissioner : "If bj'tho slnte-

Theio are ciicumstnnccs under which a second

not set up facts that entitle the applicant
to Iho relief asked. Ituppeuis that ho wus
uwuro Unit there was a declaiatoiy state

sufficient to put him upon his guard. The
pie-emption filing wus no bar to his cntrj- for

filing being perfected into an cntij- . That he
was misled and deceived b.\ the pait\ whom
he hlied to locate him , while unfotlunate for
him , is not sufficient leason for allowing him
a second enti.v. The petition docs not show
that the applicant e.xcieised the slightest

Nov. -New [ Yoik Herald Cable Special
to the Hi.c. ] One jear ago to-day was bema
a son to the princess Heatrice. This , its ( list
anniveisary , was celebrated by the queen
as chiistcning day for the piincess' littleghl.
The ceremony tluoughout was simple ami
indeed democratic. Litlle about it suggcstcc ;
loyalty. Doubtless as a special compliment
to Scotland , the queen chose the baptism
formal of the Scotch Piesbytciian church
and selected to officiate nt the font , Dr.
Lees , only thieo days homo fiom his
visit to New York. Ho is the min
ister of St. Giles , Edinburgh , a clean of the
Thistle and pimcipal Scottish chaplain to the
queen. Thus , for the first time because the
Stuarts were Catholics a rojal infant has
been baptised into the Scotch Piesbyterian
church. One o'clock was the hour selected
the place being that drawing room so ofter
referred to in the queen's books , with wind
ows ovei looking the picturesque valley of the
river Dee , in the backgiound of which rise
the shadows of the historic Grampian hills
It is a plainly fuinished apartment , sucn asi
successful mcichant might plan a IOIIL ,
loom , iich in windows , light
and views , with cm tains of Halmo
ml tin tun dropping upon n raipct
of tlio Stnnit hunting t.ntnn. There is not
one very IIIMIIIOUS belonging about the
loom. Upon the walls hang proof cngtavings
of Landscer's famous deer scenes or his sug
gcstlons of hunts over the healher and hills
At one extiemity of the diuwing loom stooc
groups of Halmoral tenants , keepers and at
tendants good sturdy highlandeis will
their families , nil in picturesque and v.nio
gated costumes. At tlio other extiemity was
ranged an aristocratic group of guests tlio

the Countess of Hi i oil , the Lnrl of Hohcton

with many other guests. Sovcinl dcei
looked in fiom the lawn and seemed btaitlcc
when the exercises begun with the sing
ing of u Scotch hymn by n selected
Abetdeen choir. In the center of the loon
stood the royul gimidmother suiioundcd bi
her Indian Fcrvanls , d.nk orientals bla/ing
red and gold. It did not seem that a quect
and empicss stood lliero but rather a woman
and n mother wealing n sinilo which sug
gested jouthful tenderness. She wore a
dress of black silk trimmed with black lace
Across her breast iblio wore a narrow scar
of theUalmoral platd. Beside her stood the

that , although the 01 Iginnl plaintiff , a wine
meichunt who was libelled , hud died , jet his
cvccutois could continue the action so far us
t slnndcicil his title to a wine tiudemurk.
I'ho defendant was the London ngcnt of
Messrs. Delbeck , of Hliciins. Tlio opening
statement of the Q. U. , which was sustained
> y the evidence wus that Mcssis.
Delbeck had u champagne tiiido mink in
iXmoilcnln lb0 "liich they icgisteied in
fiance as L' Delmouico , as u trade mink for
the champagne. They only sold this w ine to
onoor two people in England and did not
rash the Irade heie for fear of iiiterfeilng
iVlth the American Undo and did not icglstcr
.heir tiade mnik in this country until Ma.v ,
a. The plaintiff in IbTU icgisteicd the
Delmonico chiimpugne mid the defendant in
serted in two trade circuits the fol-
.owlng caution : "L1 Delmouico chum *
j.igno. Messis. Delbeck & Co. , of

name can bo genuine unless it bus their
mimes on the label. Such wino beingshipped
horn Franco thej- will take pioceedings lo
stop such shipments and such oilier piocecd-
ings in England us they may be advised "
This publication wus the ground of action
upon tlii ) former It ial. Their non-suit on the
iiound of action , being peisonul , died , when
Lite plaintiff died. The divisionul court held
hut though this was , so fur us tlieui'lion wus
conccincd , one libel , jet pioceedings could be
continued so fur us the action asked damages
for sluudcilng the title to the' trade mink.
Defense no iiiulico mid statement tine
Hoth Macs made speeches spaikling with
spirited champagne , us it weie. When the
Jiuy expressed Uieir opinion that the publica
tion was n libel on the trade-mink , but pub
lished without malice , nnd assessed damages
at Ifi , Mr. Justice Mniiisty said : "Is there no
malice ! Then the veidlct should be for the
defendants. " Accordingly the action was
dismissed.
Four other sensational proeccdures wcro
also dismissed. In the Bow slrect court
cnmo n cross summons for assault between
Dcbcnsuude , husband of Violet Clinician , and
his old butler. The latter ignominiouslj'
turned "chucker" on his old master nnd
ejected him from lo nmison Violet. George
Lewis , for Miss Cameion nnd the butler , ob-
tuined the Iiisheidict of "guilty but suived
him light. "
In another court Madame Nicols was suing
an nquniium eompun.v for breach of contarct
in discharging her while she was acting as tlio
vanishing lady in the celebrated Fiench
tiick. Justice Kejwick waxed humorous
over the case , non-suiting tlio vanishing ludjf
nnd nuj ing her ease hud vanished and look
ing ns if ho would tell her it was now time
for her icallj1 to pcrfoim her trick.
Ex-Loid Mayor Sir Francis Truscott , ns
aldeuunn , was mciinwliilo dismissing the
agent of an American watch fac torj who , for
an ndvcitisciiicnt , had dangled un exagger
ated watch on a cord and pullej stieU'lied
across the strccl. On Iho trial , after the ac
cused hud spent some time in another kind
of n watch house , he was accused of obstiuct-
ing the highway.
At the same hour of the daj' nt Cheltenham
u maglstiale , nmid great updlauso in court ,
dismissed u complaint madebj-one Gotlwaltz
for assault against Joel Thomas , father of a
j'oung lady whom the former hud seduced
under promise of maruinge. It wus said in

nnmo by precipitate flight. All the parties
