MS FROM M PROSECUTED ,
"Why Jadgo Dandy lloldi That Attorneys
May Collect Thorn ,
JUDGE CALDWELL DIFFERS FROM HIM.
\ Ollior Caeca of Interest Disposed of
Yesterday by Tlicao Jurists
In the Unltcil Htntes
Court.
When tlio United States court opened
yesterday Judge Caldwell announced his rul
ing hi the cose of Klmonlt vs KnowlUm , a
suit on notes aggregating 51,800 , , together
with Interest which inaUo the amount suod.
for Ji.COO. Tuls was the case \\hlch was sub
mlttcil to the court last week , In which the
attorney had scoured n verdict for the
plaintiff and asked for "an allowance against
the defendant for attorneys' fees , " being very
Buminniily sat down upon by Judge Caldwell ,
who held that the allowance was Illegal.
It had not developed at that tlmo that the
nrnount of the notes , exclusive of Interest ,
was anly $1,800 , and to this phase of thocnso
' Judges Unldwell turned bis attention first ,
utatlug that , hi Ills opinion , the court plainly
liad no jurisdiction In the case , unless the
ntnount sued fop exceeded , exclusive of Inter
eat nn d costsy,000.
Continuing , the ] udgo stated very emphatl-
cally that ib was unheard of that a creditor
might mnko Interest ujxm Intorust by attach
Ing coupons to the amount of the note. The
pleading In the case showed that the suit was
based on two notes for $500 nnd $1,300 re-
8 ] > ccti\ely , nnd n suflldent number of inter
est coupons had been attached to make the
amount over $2.000.
The judge hold that the note Itself showed
that the coupons wcro for Interest on the
principal note nnd not part of the princi
pal , mid ho declared that the court should , not
bo asked to declare ttmt what the parties
themselves had agreed to was folso. The
wbolo line of similar cases , ho held , must no
out of court , as the latter bad no jurisdiction
over them.
Respecting the assessing of attorney's foes
against the dofondaut , Judge Caldwcll re
peated his former ruling and stated thut
, the stnlo statute allowing those fees had
been repented many years aro. and it was a
standing rula of the United States court to
bobounuby the lavs of the state In which
court \vna held. The supreme court of Ne
braska bad decided four times that attorneys' '
fees cannot bo assessed against the defend
ant , nntl the decision of the state court must
bo binding upon the United States ccuit lu
casei not involving a federal question.
Judge Caldwell continued that yonra ago in
Arkansas ho haO had occasion to pass on thi
question when tboro had been no decision of
the supreme court on the question nnd no
law of the state bearing on the subject , nnd
in that Instance , as In nil others that hiu
since eomo under his ruling , bo had decide
against the allowing of attorneys' fees unless
tbo laws of the state specifically provided ,
for It.
The judge further stated that when the
borrower agreed to repay the lender the ful
amount of money borrowed and to pay the
maximum rate of interest , anv other obllga
tion wus without consideration nnd there
fore void , consequently any effort to collect
attorneys' fees of the defendant was illegal ,
Ho characterised ns unseemly nntt contrary
to public policy the practice of attorneys to
prosecute a man and then attempt to compe
liim to pay them their foes for prosecuting
him.
him.Judge Caldwell delivered bis opinion In. a
forcible manner ana every word was closely
listened to.
Judge Dandy thcn-cavo expression to his
views on the matter , in which bo differed
fiom.Tuilgo Caldwcll on the question of at
tonic vs1 fees , making no reference to the
question of jurisdiction.
Ho snld the laws of tbo state atone tlm ,
provided for the allowance of attorneys' fees
but the legislature subsequently repealed thi
law. Some tlmo after that a case bad conn
before him In which the question was In
volvcii , the allowance of fees being a part o
1 bo contract , Tbo case was n'ot decided a
the current term and vent over until tlu
next term. In tbo meantime tho-Judge hat' '
consulted authorities nnd nrrlvcd at the same
conclusion as Judge Caldwell had lust nn
nounccil , but Justice Miller came along abou
that Hum and bo at once decided that tin
contract was good and tbo fees must bo paid
Judge Dundy continued that bo had'prc
scntcd his views on the matter to Justice
Millet- but the latter adhered to his
. .opinion and the case was so do-
ctaod. Subsequently , Judges McCrarv an
Drowsier had coincided with Justice Miller' ;
views , and Judge Dundy had followed In thi
tmrao line , thinking , ns ho said , that It was
nonsense to attempt to decide contrary tc
such n weight of legal opinion.
"When 1 have held this so long , " exclalma
Judge Dundy , "am I to stultify myself by oc
Icuowlcdging tdnt I have decided -wrong ai
these years ) Until the supreme court settles
this question I shall feel bound to adhere
the previous rulings of this court. "
Judge Caldwell then announced that ho In
tended to prepare n written opinion on thi
question.
C. S. Montgomery , in a short address ,
touching upon the recent memorial to the Into
Justice Miller , called the attention of the
court to ttio death of Judge James \V. bavago
and dwelt briefly upon his career in connec
tion with tbo federal court. lie moved the
appointment of ncommlttep of flvo to. pro-
ware and present suitable resolutions to the
couit. \
The court announced that tbo committee
would be appointed later. \
Judges Uundy ana Caldwcll heard artju-
nicuts on n motion to remand tbo cose of Pal
mer ngalnst the St. Joseph & Grand Island
railway company to the district court. This
cose comes from Adams county and Is ono In
volving a coatract for tbo transportation of
freight from Hastings to a point in Oregon.
The Union Paclflo is interested In this caso.
The plaintiff holds that the contract comes
under the Interstate commerce act and tbo
trial must come In the United States court ,
ns everything in tbo contract Is subject to
tbo United States laws.
The arguments lu this case consumed the
time of the court until adjournment and no
decision was given. .

WHEN GOUIiD COMES IN.
There \VIIIUcix llcorRnnlzntlon of tlio
Union Tnclllu Hnllroiul ,
A. former Union Pacific ofilclal , who Is as
well acquainted ns any outsldo i ny with
the methods employed by Gould In the opera
tion of his railroads , proillcts that there will
bo a complete reorganization of ttio intinngo-
meat nnd plim ot operating thoUulou Pacific
road under the new order.
Spcnfcliiff on this point this gentleman said :
"As great a difference as thnt between day
and night exists between Gould's ' plan of
operating a raiirona and that employed by
'tho ' Adams administration , nnd ns Gould bos
nhnbltof having his owu plans carried out
thcro are few things less probable thun the
chances of his continuing tbo present system.
Gould Is a great consolldator , and bis nctlva
management ot tbo Union Pacific would menu
the dropping out of \vholo army of ofllclals
now connected with the road.
"Tnko the oiierntliiff department for In
stance. Thcro you have flvo grand divisions
nnd n batch of general olllccrs forcncli. In
the Missouri rlvor division there is General
Manager IhlnkorliolT , Superintendent Illlck-
ensdcrfur , Superintendent Palmer , Assis
tant Superintendent 1'url ; , Assistant Super
intendent Uovnrd and Assistant Superinten
dent Hush. lu the St. Joseph & Grand
Island division Is General Manager Hoblnson ,
n superintendent nnd three assistants. In
the mountain division Is General Manager
Hcssprulo ( , three suiicrintcmtcnts and three
nstlstunt superintendents. The gulf Uivlslon
has General Manager Mock , ono general su
perintendent anil two division superinten
dents. And In tha 1'uclllo division is Gen
eral Manager McNeil and throe superinten
dents.
"This system runs through tlio entire road.
In the passenger department there nro llvo
general passenger iigcnts , cuch with nn as-
si slant , und In seine cases several assistants.
There Is n general freight agent and n corps
of assistants for every division too , nnd 110
end to the list of 'generals' of some depart
ment or other.
"Tho result of this arrangement Is thnt the
pay roll of the road Is something suflleicnt to
nlann any set of stockholders and to hoop the
not earnings down to the minimum. Them
thcro is always a clashing of authority \vhcro
there nro so many hcnds ol equal rank aim
this has been shown In many Instances wlth-
la the past year ,
"If Gould assumes nctlvo control of the
road you will find this force wonderfully re
duced. Thcro ill bo a head of each depart
ment in Omahnand the divisions , each of
which now supports a sot ot general onicors
with assistants und clerical forces , will each
bo in the hands of a division superintendent ,
who will report direct to headauarters.
At a careful estlmato thcro would
bo a saving of at least a
half million dollars n vcar In official salaries
nnd would save ati endless amount of trouble
that luis resulted from the division of author
ity under the Adams administration.
"Still wo will bo able to tell bntter what
changes will ho rando after the result of S. H.
II , Clink's consultation with Gould Is glvon
out. Clark is the most trusted of nil of
Gould's lieutenants nnd his former experience
ns general manager of the Union Piicitlo qual
ities him to suggest the changes essential to
bring the road into harmony with Gould's
system of management.
"Tho chances are moro than even that
Clark will bo the native manager of tbo Union
Pacific. Ho will prob.iblv retain his position
as vice president of the Missouri Pacific but
will leave the active management of thntroad
in other hards. With Clark in the general
manager's chair of the Union Pacific there
would bo n general clean out of tbo Adams
forces all along the lino. "
To Advnnuo Freight Hntci.
Tlio Transcontinental association has de
cided to advance freight rates on all Pacific

will amount to about 10 per cent.

The following methods of procedure ; hnvo
been adopted by the various boards for the
examination ot ofllccrs prior to promotion ,
The fuU board meets in undress uniform.
The candidate for promotion presents himself
In similar drcis. Each member of the board
s sworn in the presence of the oMcor to "Im
partially nnd thoroughly examine him. " Tbo
recorder of the board U sworu by the presi
dent to "faithfully and accurately record the
proceedings. " The officer h asked If ho has
any objection to bo sworn by any member
present , named in the order , which has Just
been read by the recorder. The officer states
that "ho has , " or that "ho has not , " as the
case may be. Tbo members of the board
then hand to the officer , through the presi
dent , a series of written questions which had
been previously prepared. The oniecr Is
placed ; n his honor that ho will obtain or
receivu no assistance from any source in his
answers to tbo questions. Ho Is conducted
to a room by himself , in
which he flnds a doslc ana
writing materials. Ho is shut
up Micro going out to his meats or to his
sleeping apartments only at night , until ho
lias in writing answered every question
which has been prppoundcd to him. Ho then
notifies the board thnt ho Is ready to again
appear before It , mid when granted pesniis-
siou to do so , ho deposits with the recorder
the questions and his answers in writing.
The questions asked nra tnkcn from the
"Regulations In the Army , " "Blunt's ' Klilo
and Carbiuo Firing , " "Konnon's Manuel of
Guard Duty , " "Tho Procedure nna
Practice of Coutt-Martlal , " "Upton's

latlons , " nnd "General Orders of the War
Department. "
They embrace the full scope of each of the
books mentioned and nro comprehensive-
searching to a high d grce. Prior to this
mental examination , the medical part of the
board conducts the ofllccr to the hospital and

possible to subject an individual to is under

The written answers which the ofllccr has
given to the board are appended to the pro
ceedings of the body , which are forwarded
to tbo secretary of war in Washington. If
the olllcor gets oft with twenty paces of legal
cap , eloiely written , each page bearing short
but accurate , clear and concNo answers to
searching and technical questions , ho may
consider himself very fortunate.
The physical examination will , beyond
doubt , elimlnato many from the service , ns it
Is exttemoly exacting. The mental examina
tion will also doubtless eliminate some , and
have the excellent effect of causing nn ofllccr

It should remain comparatively fresh for

have plenty of sleep , good appetites , nothing

ERRORS MADE BY MAN !
Tolive up to all that you make is an error.
Not to carefully consider where to buy and why you should buy is an error.
To pay a big price for clothing because the store advertises heavily and charges big rates In
order to maintain big expenses is worse than an error.
To suppose that you can do better than you can at the Misfit Parlors is an error.
To pay $35.00 for a ready-made suit when the Misfit Parlors will sell you a $45 custom-mado ,
suit for $20.00 is an error.
To pay $6 and $8 for poorer pants than the Misfit Parlors will sell you $3 and $4 is an error
that costs.
