St. PavL, Mixx., Dec. 16—A Huron, Dak,, special Says: The constitutional convention met yester- day, President Edgerton tu the chair. Judge Canipvell offered resolutions which were unani- Mmously adopted that a conference committee of nine elegates be appointed to consider the present plan of action, also invit- ing the senate and house of South Dakota to appoint a committee of conference ior the same purpose, and that the president of this conference and the governor of South Dakota beinvited to participate.

While Congress can ulone admit and constitute You a state inthe Union, you may still be legally constituted a political authority without union, and entitled to the protection of ‘the federal laws. ‘The creative power abides in the state and not in Congress? He argued that section 32 of the ordinance and schedule, providing that uo act be performed ex. cept such as is preliminary to admission into the unton, 18 not part of the constitution and may be annulled by this convention, but it should not be discarded without formal amendment to that effect, submitted to the popular ballot, and that until such vote all legislative, executive and Judictal action by the states should be limited to Such as arv-necessary, preliminary and incident ‘to admission. z at DR.

Time will thus be given the convicted boodlers' counsel to take such bee mt as they may decide upon. Efforts will undoubtedly be made to keep McQuade out $f Sing ding, at least pending an appeal which is to be taken.” Application will likely be made to a supreme court judge for a stay of proceedings in the case and tf one ts inted the Jt fe who acts in the case will have the power to fix the bail upon Which McQuade may be released pending the de- cision by the appellate court. Considerable speculation Is being indul inas to what effect the verdict will have on the other boodle ex-aidermen.

I have re. ce5tved tel from the presidents of several banks and they all concur in ascribing the present trouble to the collapse of stock operations. The more experienced and conservative bankers had foreseen this and consequently were prepared for it. So far as my information goes, none of the banks are implicated with any persons re- ported as embarrassed by the panic. Here ts a telegram I have just recetved trom a gentleman | in New York, in whose judgment I have great con- idence: ‘Market better; money stringency con- fined to Wall street.

Galt, who was elected chairman of thé meeting last week, said to a Stax reporter, ‘speaking of the proposed citizens’ committee, that 1 was the intention to appoint a committee of five from among the best men of the city, whose hon- orable action could never be challenged on the ground of having “an axe to grind,” to prepare in shape any bill orcomplaint which It might necessary to Dring before for the best interest of the District. “Ir it is found,” Mr. Galt “that such men as I have deseril cannot then I wilihave nothing more to do with toe regret that I ever lent my time to its prosecution.” “The great trouble,” is enae congresamen, ar@,contib persons hat ‘axes : or measures to promote for their own nent, ee committéeof five will not we when their influence can be exerted in their opposition, and nelther will the committee Jona countenance to such schemes.” Mr. @alt was very emphatic in his statements that ‘this intended committee should not be thought of as @ “ring” or “clique,” formed for the better prosecution of the projects of any certain class of men. The motion which inspit the movement ‘Was, he said, the desire that the interests of the le Of thé District should be protected before gress, and that any meritorious bill which may be wl ‘on their behalf should receive impartial co tion at the hands of the congressmen. In conclusion, Mr. Gult said: “If the committee can secure the revision of the it laws of the ‘District it will have thteously served its pose. We want laws which will prevent ‘shysters’ ‘and ‘quacks’ from feeding upon their clients, and Jaws by which causes may be decided before the parties to them are in thelr graves.” WHAT MR, M, F.

The witnesses forthe prosecution were three colored boys, Edward Davis, Joun Robinson and James M. nD.

He said he went in ‘he defendant's place with Davis; that the latter purchased lager beer, and each drank some of it. Robinson testified that he was in the defend- ant’s place when the others were there, but he did not see them drink anything. Judge Snell said: “There ts nothing more de- morailzing, or which should be looked after more carefully, than this business of sel liquors to Iininorg, ‘There is corruption among these boys, and I do not believe that the truth come out tn this case.
