WoW THE DUTIES WILL DBE DIVIDED—CASES IX WHICH IT WILL HAVE FINAL JUAISDICTION— WRITS OF ERROR ALONE CAN TAKE THEM UP— ARRANGEMENT OF THE ROOMS. In about three weeks the Police Court will rank in dignity with some other courts, ouly the salary of the judges will not be quite as much. The Police Court after doing business | for about twenty years was virtually declared | unconstitutional, so far as the trials of many cases were concerned, and the only way out of | the difficulty was for Congress to pass a law | changing the mode of trials. This was done, = now many persons who heretofore had to sppeal their cases and pay for the appeal in order to get a jury trial, can get such a trial im the first instance and without paying in ad- vance for it. After the Ist of April, when the jury is drawn, Lawyer Bacon will argue to the jury what the crime of larceny is, while Lawyer (08s will piead for the illegul rum sellers from across the branch, and it may be thut his re- marks will be addressed to “Judge Cahill” or “Judge Dumont.” ‘Lawyer Closs will quote law from the books in that section of “Ole Virginny” where he is called “judge,” and Counsellor Carringtou will address the jury on questions concerning wo- man’s rights. ‘The constitutional lawyers who practice there will have all the opportunity in the world to read sections of the Constitution to prove that citizens have the right to bear arma. GENTLEMEN OF THE JURY. Indge Miller will then heve an opportunity to say: “In this case, gentlemen of the jury, the defendant is entitled toa reasonable doubt it any doubt exists, &c.," and his charge may be excepted to and motions for a new trial made, but the case will not as formerly go to the Criminal Court, for the Police Court has final jurisdiction. “The only way to got a trial reviewed will be by writ of error, and there are y of the Police Court lawyers who know no more about writs of error than they do of errorless writs, so that there are not many cases likely to go up in that way. The law says that the jurors must be drawn quarterly. beginning with the first of the y and they are to serve for three months. duty, however, docs not exclude them from duty in the other courts. Each jadge has the same power as the other, tand by dividing up the work the prisoners will be discharged or sent to prison earlier in the day than at present. The number of days that the jury will be in attendance depends wholly upon the number of demands made for such trials, and should the policy people all demand jury trials there will wack enough to last a jury several when they convene. WHERE COURT WILL BE HELD. Under the law the judges hold court simulta- neousiy and they will be in the same building. The trials by jury will be in the court room proper, while the trials by the judge only will probably be held in one of the large rooms in the Fant Luilding, which was rented some time ago for cowt purposes. On the upper floor there are rooms which can be utilized for jary rooms, but it is the inteution of Judge Mill hen be presides, to preven: long delays and | hung juries and have them render their ver- | dicts without leaving the box, which he claims | can be done with fuirmess to all concerned. | Which judge is to have the first jury court will be determined after the second judge qual- ities, in case he is appointed before the jury is | drawn, but as Judge Miller will be the senior Judge he will probably have the honor of in- structing the first juries. With prosecutions under this. law the decket in the Criminal Court will be decreased consid- erably, and it is thought that in the course of a year or two District Attorney Cole will succeed in having alf of the pending cases disposed of. saps EVANGELIST HAMMOND. His Stirring Appeal to the Unconverted at the Tabernacle. At last night's meeting in the series of re- vivals now being held in the Tabernacle Rev. Edward Payson Hammond, the evangelis*, spoke of the good done by newspapers in Chris- | tian work, and in that connection be said words of praise for Tax Stan. Despite the inclement weather there was a large attendance and men, women and children rose from their seats and told of their conver- sion. One man said he bad been under tion for sixteen years—ever since the “Ham- mond meetings” before—and yesterday he gave his heart to God. His son did the same.

The services wore ‘opened by the singing of a nnm- ber of hymns, the choir being composed of female voices, and in the service of song the revivalist took part. He wanted everybody to sing. "You all expect to sing in heaven,” he said, “and why not begin on earth?” The hymns, he said, would almost sing themselves, bat the people sit quietly in their seats with | their mouths closed so tightly that they do not have half a chance. Between the singing of the hymns Dr. Hammond told of incidents during bis travels in this and other countries. He mentioned a time when he preached in a prison in Scotland, where many of the inmates were incarcerated ‘for debt. Those men owed a debt which they could not pay, he said, and then he spoke of some kind friend coming to their assistance and giving a note for the amount to keep them out of bondage. This is what the Saviour had done for sinners. Dr. Hammond spoke of the number of persons who attend divine services, but who never do anything more than listen. Then he read from the Bible to show them the érrot of their way. and as a matter of illustration be spoke of tw: nicely dressed ladies who were in the meeting. “They told me,” he said. “that they enjoyed | the meetings and I asked if they would not do | some of the work, but they couldn't; they did not belong to the church. "Neither do I,” em- phasized the speaker. “Then they said that the people were strangers to them and I told them that that was the ame case with me, but if a man is drowning would you refuse to throw him a rope because you were never introduced to him?” Rev. Mr.Jones, pastor of theTabernacle, led in prayer and spoke of the good work that was accomplished at the drst day's mectings. At the conclusion of the praise mecting the choir sang “Come to Jesus,” while those who desired to do so left the room before the in- quiry meeting was begun, wlen Dr. Hammond dod bis assistants wens, through the audsonce making personal appeals to those who were affected, and before the close of the inceting a number of persons were converted. "The meeting tonight will begin at 7:0 ocivek an Dr. Hammoud will be assisted by the pastors of several churches of different denominations in this city, including some of the Methodist ministers who are attending the conference. ee Virginia Coupon Cases Dismissed. The United States Supreme Court yesterday dismissed three eases of Callan, Grogory and Lawson, respectively, against Bransford, treas- urer of the city of Lynchburg, aud Litehford against Day Sergeant of Lynchburg, involving in one form or anvther the old tax coupon contro- versy. The cases were dismissed by the eourt of ‘appeals of Virginia upon the ground that the matters involved were purely pecuniary, and that the amount in controversy in each case was less than eufiicient to give the court juris diction.

We left the city at 12:40 o'clock, having telegraphed the President asking on interview on our arrival. On reach- ing Washington we found the President en- d with the Secretary of State, Mr. Sewurd. We stated to him what we understood to be the gravity of the situation and the great excite ment and exasperation of feeling in the city Ye urged that while the state had always been 1 to the xoverninent, and that while in our judgment sach was still attitude of a ma- jority of her people, yet Maryland was a south- ern state. allied to its section by sympathies of blood, sentiment, geographical position and | her large slaveholting, Tuanufaetaring and | busincaa interests, and ft could not. be denied that a considerable number of her people, es pecially concentrated in the city, were fully in sympathy with it, and were there organized to resist the passage of troops. THE PRESIDENTS REPLY. “The President replied that he appreciated the difticulty of our position. He said it was intended that the troops should pass peaceably and that he had been led to believe that their transit through the state would be unopposed. He expressed much surprise at the occurrences of the day before and proceeded with some feeling to comment on them. He said he had directed Gen. Scott, in the prosence of promi- nent Marylanders, to march the troops around ihe city. ward said that the troubles of the government at Washington were also en- titled to be considered by us. Ireplied that our Visit was influenced solely by a sense of duty and that the emergency, in our judgment, was a very serious one. For myself I suggested » question of the right of the fede under existing circumstanc roops through one of the the Union, bnt suid that we did urge with great citude the question of the wisest and least dangerous siode of exercising the right.

Scott said he would obtain the rein- forcements peaceably if possible, but that they did not propose at Washington to be shut up like rats ina trap. If they could not get their reinforcements in any other way the troops might cut their way through. He was willing, however, to order the troups to pass by an-| other route. At Gen, Scott's instance we called | on Mr. Cameron, Secretary of War, who, after long disenssion, agreed to our suggestion that ditticulty might be avoided by concentrating | the troops at Annapolis aud moving them by rail from thet point to Washington. This plan met the approval of Gen. Scott.

BOOMERS OF THE THIRD PARTY. are Preparing for the New Movement, ‘From the New York Sun. The two foremost leaders of the Kansas Far- mers’ Alliance, Senator Peffer and Congress man Simpson, are both in favor of the organi- zation of a new political party under the auspi- ces of the alliance. It is important that this fact should be duly considered and also the other fact that the two Kansas feminine boom- ers of the alliance, Mrs. Lease and Mrs. Diggs, take the same ground. The influence of these four leaders is very great. Congressman Jerry Simpson says that the new party is sure to be set up at the Cincinnati conference in May on the platform adopted last year at St. Louis, as the representative of all the industrial inter- ests of the country, and he almost loses control of himaelf ax he predicts the triumphs that it is bound towin thie year and next. Senator Peffer speaks with leas assurance of the pros- Pect, but he is ready for action in the month of May, when, in his opinion, the working forces of the country will be united. Senator Kyle of South Dakota has also taken ind in favor of the new party. “I stand,” says, “upon the tripte-plank platform adopted ‘at St. Louis by the alliance and the j labor organizations, and shall uphold the course that is taken at a rs, Diggs says that the new political part is tobe known as the people's party, an: thet i tu presidential ticket in the election of next year. gresérian Davis of Kansas says that the Alltunce will surely put up a presidential can- Gidate, that the now party will probably nomi: inate Greenback Weaver of Iowa and that ite action may be the means of throwing the elec- tion into the next House, which will have however, hold that Iguatias Donnelly of Min nesota has a chance of getting the nomination.

Polk of North Carolina, ix guarded in his language when referring to this subject, but he recently went so far as to utter the re- mark that “the alliance contemplates putting a national ticket in the field in 1842." ‘Verence V.

There are some of the allinnce leaders who aro opposed to the formation of a third party at the Cincinnati conference in May, and hold that no potitieal action should be taken before | the national convention of the alliance next December.

A SED see ATIONAL ABDUCTION. Stealing English Woman as She Was Leaving the Church Door. An abduction under most sensational cireum- stances is reported from Clitheroe, England. On Sunday morning. as Mrs. F. Jackeon was leaving « church in that place a carriage drawn by foaming horses and containing three men was rapidly driven upand stopped near the lady, who was seized upon and foreibly con- veyed inside the vehicle. The carriage con- taining the abduciors and their victim then drove rapidly away, with the friends of the ain pursuit. The abducting party finally alighted before a house in Blackbarn and conducted Mrs. Jackson inside the dwell- ing. They then proceeded td barricade the doors and windows of the house and strenu- ously refused admittance to the party of pur- suers, who had followed them in another car- riage from Clitheroe. It has been learned that the principal abductor and the occupant of the barricaded honse in Blackburn is E. H. Jackvon, who is the husband of ‘the abducted dy. It seems that three years ago Jackson pri- vately married the lady. then Miss Hall, and that she is the possessor of a fortune of £27,000. After the marriage Jackson went to Australia, returning, however, early in 1889. But the lady then absolutely refused to live with him. Jackson thereupon obtained a high court order for restitution of conjugal rights, notwithstanding which his wife steadily re- fused to live with him, and he resorted to ab- duction. After the aliduction crowds of people sur- rounded Jackson's house, which they threat- ened to storm in an effort to release Mrs. Juck- son, but the chief constable warned them that in so doing they would be guilty of a breach of the peace, while Jackson himself from a win- dow of the house shouted defiance at those out- side, saying be had a large force ready to resist any attempts at rescue. th sides were on the alert throughout Sunday night and yester- day. ‘The police succeeded in maintaining onder outside the house, Mra.
