The plaintiff’s | time of their organization to the present date, sintiff’s connection therewith, and much in- teresting information. It states that in 1800 George Rapp, an intelligent German citizen, of Wurtemberg, preached clandestinely to his neigh- bors, not having be en ordained as required by the laws of church and state. His views differed ely from those held by his hearers. He told then he was the mouthpiece of God In guiding them to salvation, and soon won many sympa- thizers. Fully three hundred citizens of Wur- temberg became firm believers in his doctrine, and when he proposed that they should form a settlement of their own, under his guidance and control, twenty-five families signified thelr wiilingness to go with hi In 1805 they em- r America and settled in Butier county, Penn. Rapp, it Is alleged. induced the heads of families to turn their money over to him to be held in trast. Plaintiff's parents contributed $1,000 to this fund. About 1818 the society moved to Indiana, and in 1825 they settled at their present location, Economy. Rappfrom time to time introduced various rules and rezula- tions, to which the members were compelled to ecede by their leader, who had wonderful in- ence over them. Among these were restric— s forbidding the members to communicate with outsiders, prohibiting the use of tobacco, prohibiting marriage, prescribing the character and quantity of food, &e. It Is further claimed by the plaintiff that from the age of 12to 27 he labored hard with his parents for the society, for which they never re- ceived more than a bare existence, aud in 1845, Rapp, who had previously destroyed the records of the amount contributed to the common fund | by each member, concealed $500,000. The trust” fund,” the plaintiff believes, now aggrezates 8,000,000, and the annual income of the society is $200,000. The mode of life as prescribed by Rapp became obnoxious to the plaintiffafter the death of his parents, and in 1831 he’ left and | married. At the death of Rapp Cornelius 8. Baker and Jacob Henrici became trustees ot the socie Subsequently Baker died, and was succeeded by Lenz. The demurrur of the defendant ‘states that Spiedel, on the face of the Dil, has no equitable relief, that he is barred long since by | the statute of limitation, and therefore has no j claim. Plaintiff's counsel held that the fund was a trust, asthe rules and regulations of the society show, and that it does, therefore, not come under the statute of limitation. The same points of law as are Involved in the present case have been raised heretofore, both in tlre lower and supreme courts. The ruling, so far as the record shows, has always been in favor of the society in analogous proceedings. ———__-o+- _____ Smuggling by Night. A TREASURY INVESTIGATION OF THE ALLEGED BUSINESS AT BUFFALO. A special dispatch to the Philadelphia Press, from Buffalo, Dec. 18, says: Special Treasury Agent Heichhold to-day began an investigation of the smuggling business. This official has in- structions from Washingron to make the inquiry thorough, and to spare neither time nor money in bringing out the bottom facts. He says he starts with the belief that some smuz- Gling 1s carried on, the river being entirely un- guarded at night, but he does not believe that there 1s enough to warrant employing a larger force of detectives in the district. The first point In the Investigation 1s to learn whether there are professional smugglers in the community, and about how many there are. The next is to find out who gives them regular employment and what facilities have been pro- vided for storing, secreting, or selling smug- gled goods. Attention will’ be given in the first place to butter, the allegation being that the TRADE IN SMUGGLED BUTTER has become almost an open one, and that many Canadian farmers sell their entire product to parties who make a business of smuggling it into this state for the Buffalo, Rochester, Al- bany, New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Baltimore trade. It is believed that the official will find the breaking up of this industry an ex ceedingly difficult one, owing to the ready sup- ply afforded by the many dairy farms along the Canadian frontier as well as to the ease with which the product is disposed of when once on this side. THE ILLICIT WHISKY TRAFFIC is much more hazardous, because there are fewer persons who buy liquor in quantities, and because it 1s not produced at every farm house along the border, but has to be brought from some market or place of manufacture quite a distance from the safest shipping point. On this account those engaged in smuggling whisk or in disposing of It are more cautious and ‘will be less apt to be detected. The Treasury agent will undoubtedly check the smuggling of butter temporarily, and may reasonably expect to se- cure evidence of the guilt of various parties, but as for breaking up the trade, he can hav but little hope. Mr. Heichhold offers to pa Uberally for whatever tangible information is given him on the subject. . THE SMUGGLING OF CLOTHING is one of the largest items on the bill, and it will also receive due attention. The exposure has been the sensation of the timehere, at Washing- ; ton and in other political or trade centers of this country and Canada. When the first publi- cation was made Heichhold pronounced it a hoax. but a contnuation of the most positive kind of assertions led to the conclusion that an Investigation was necessary, Soe Ser G AFTER Duinkina Focr BottLes oF A telegram from Pittsburg, December 17 says: The remains of Herman Meyran, aged ubott 60 years, who died in this city last night under very peculiar circumstances, were shipped to his friend, Wm. T. Marvil, of New York, this evening. From letters in his possession it was learned that he lived in Flushing, L. I., and that he was returning home from a tour of CMina and Japan. He had been drinking heavily from the time he leit St. Louis. and the trainmen say that he drank four bottles of wine between Co- lumbus and this city, aride of eight hours. When the train arrived here last evening he was found inastupor, and Mayor Lyon, of this city, who ned to be at the Union depot at the time, hadhim removed to the St. James hotel, where he was laid on the floor on a rug in front of the fire. He died In less than half an hour after he was taken from the train, and without having regained consciousness.
