RECEIVER CHOSEN, On application made in behalf of the Metropolitan Trust Company, of New York, before Judge Edward R. Meek, of the Federal Cours for the Northern District of Texas, alleging default of the {nterest on # bond is- sue of 1892, T. J.

This Court a Farce, it Says. Jefferson City, Feb.—The supreme court knocked out the court of gen- eral sessions in St. Louis city, which was created by an act of the last legislature. The court of general seasions was established as a helper for the criminal court with only pow- er to assess fines, issue habeas cor- pus writs and impose prison senten- ces when the defendants pleaded dence and determine the guilt or {n- nocence of a defendant who went to trial. The supreme court says that there can be no court without the power to hear and determine cases from the evidence submitted and a tribunal constituted as this so called court of general eessions is a mock- ery and has no standing in the con- stitution.
