GOODMAN, THE LAW OFFICER Review of the Year by the Attorney General. a MOVEMENT OF THE COXEY ARMY The Work and Need of Several Local Institutions. ee COURT OF APPEALS Attorney General Olney, in his annual report to Congress, makes a full statement of the operations of the Department of Justice during the past year, and submits several suggesticns for improvements in the judiciary system. He calls attention to the extent and magnitude of the juris- diction of the department and to the rap- idly increasing volume of business trans- acted by the federal courts. The Attorney General gives a brief statement of the op- erations ef the United States Supreme Court, and says that unless some unfore- seen cause arrests its present progress, the Supreme Court in the course of a few years will be able to dispose of its docket in a session of two or three months, while the justices will be able to devote a rea- sonable amount of time to the cireuit courts of appeals and to thus materially add to the eiliciency and prestige of those courts. He says the court, through the arduous labors of its members and the skillful management of its business by their chief, may be expected at no distant day to be as distingufshed for the prompti- tude with which decisions are rendered as it once was for the delays inevitably accompanying them. ‘The business of the circuit courts of ap- peals is reported to be steadily enlarging, and the Attorney General apparently jus- tifles the appointment of an additonal cir- cuit judge in the seventh and ninth cir- cults and possibly also in the sixth cir- cuit. In regard to the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia the Attorney General says: “This court continues to discharge its important duties to the gen- eral satisfaction of the lawyers and clients concerned, and is rapidly reducing the mass of appealed cases which had continued to accumulate prior to its or- ganization. As shown by the réport of the clerk, the cases docketed during the year endirg June 30, 18M, were 136, in- cluding eleven patent appeals; the cases disposed of were 274, including eleven pat- ent appeals; cases pending July 1, 1894, were 66, including seven patent ap- peals, while of the cases pending, thirteen (including one patent appeal), had been argued and were awaiting decisions, and of the cases disposed of, thirteen had been appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States.” Court of Claim A special chapter of the report is de- voted to the important business of the Court of Claims, including the status and amount of war claims, French spoliation and Indian depredation claims before that court. The pending war claims amount to 100,000, and the Indian depredation claims to $43,515,867. “It is not probable,” says the Attorney General, “that the ean- nual dispatch of business upon the present rate of appropriation and with the force organized as at present can be very greatly increased, and the conclusion, therefore, is irresistible that without substantial en- largement of the force which can be de- voted to this work those delays must con- tinue which now constitute a reproach to the government and justify the importunity and solicitation which are so serious bur- dens upon the time of those who must listen to them.”" He earnestly Invites the attention cf Congress to the glaring defects in the pres- ent system of confinement of the United States prisoners, and urges the growing importance and necessity for the erection of suitable prisons and reformatories for convicts sentenced by the federal courts. The number of applications for pardon during the year was 516, of which 115 were xranted. Attention {s invited to the con- tinued lawlessness in the Indian territory and to the inefictent administration of justice there, with a view to the enact- ment of such legislation as would tend to remove or greatly lessen the evils de- scribed. Strong reasons are presented for immediate congressional action looking to a reorganization of the Union Pacitic Reil- road Company on a basis equitable alike to government and private interests. The Stanford Estate Ciatm The Attorney General makes a brief statement in regard to the sult against th Stanford estate, in satisfaction of the gov- ernment claim of $60,000,000 against the Central Pactifle and Western Pactfic rail- road companies, In which the late Senator Stanford was a large stockholder. ‘The Attorney General reviews the law on the subject, and concludes as follows: “I have, however, been furnished with opinions of eminent lawyers of California to the effect that the United States can be- gin suit on its claim without waiting for the maturity of the subsidy bonds. And as there is an obvious hardship in any un- necessary delay of the settlement of the Stanford estate, I have offered to bring sult upon the claim at once upon the de- fendants agreeing that evidence taken {n It should be deemed evidence in any sub quent suit, 1f such subsequent suit wer found to be necessary. This proposition has not yet been accepte ‘A long chapter of the re to the commonweal movement and the labor uprising during the summer, involy- ing the use of the federal military forces as @ posse comitatus. “By this mean Says the Attorney General, “the perils of & grave situation were averted, widespread lawlessness was checked in {ts Initial stages, great destruction of property was prevented and large numbers of persons— offenders not so much from vicious intent as from actual and threatened want and suffering—were saved the consequences of serious crimes and escaped with only mod- erate penalties. * * * * To compel a set- tlement of disputes between the Pullman company and a portion of its employes, nothing less was meditated and aimed at tkan a complete stoppage of all the rail- road transportation of the country, state and interstate, and freight as well as pas- senger. Such a result, involving, for a city like Chicago, the loss of the very nec- essaries of life, it seemed to be the duty of the department to prevent by the most Vigorous use of all the iegal methods at its command. ‘The strike at Chicago, so far as it involved the obstruction of United States mails and the paralysis of inter- state commerce, was practically broken when the United States troops reached that city, and, being broken at Chicago, was In reality broken everywhere else.” Our Local Institutions, The report contains several references to local institutions. Reviewing the report of the president of the Girls’ Reform School of the District, the Attorney (en- eral says “The report of the president shows the operation of the school, the beneficial re- sults attained and to be expected from it and tbe changes and improvements that should be made tn order to give full effect to the laudable intent of Congress in char- tering and maintaining it. ‘It appears, in brief, that the utmost capacity of the school ts thirty-two girls; that applications for the reception of more girls are being constantly received, but denied for want of room; that the present building 1s in some respects unsatisfac- tory, especially in the matter of heating and plumbing, and that, if the building were enlarged so as to accommodate ninety girls instead of thirty-two, no ad« ditional force would be necessary for the running of the school. “The suggestions of the president seem to me eminently judicious and reasonable, and 1 respectfuliy urge tneir favorable consideration by Congress.” He repeats his recommendation of last year in favor of enlarged accommodations for the reform school of the District and of proper provision for advanced instruc- tion in the more useful branches of me- chanical tndustry. In this connection the trustees called attention to the fact that a structure built and equipped at a cost ex- ceeding $20,000, and capable of containing fifty boys, is closed and unoccupied, because Congress failed to make an appropriation for the necessary officers, while some twen- ty-five boys under the age of sixteen years are now in the jail and workhouse, because there is no room for them in the school. He also repeats his recommendation of last year, that the entire supervision and management of the United States jail in the District should be placed under either the Department of Justice or the Supreme Court of the District. The same recommen- dation was made by his predecessors in of- fice and has received the warm approval of the Supreme Court of the District. The recommendations heretofore made for the erection of a separate building or wing for female prisoners and for a wall surround- ing the jail are also renewed. These are both greatly needed, the Attorney General says, and would add materially to the safe- y of the institution and the weifare and discipline of its inmates. Potomac Flats Case. In regard to the Potomac flats litigation the Attorney General says: “This case is ready for hearing, but re- mains in the same position as when the last annual report, was made. The delay is at- tributable to a serious question respecting the court that now has jurisdiction of the cause-it being matter of grave doubt whether such court is the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia or the Court of Appeals for the District. Legislation cur- ing the difficulty was applied for at the last session of Congress, but without avail, and will be again applied for at this session.” Reference is also made to the legal steps taken for the forfeiture of the charter of the Metropolitan Railroad Company, as fol- lows: “The two litigations referred to in the last annual report under this head have since been terminated—the act of Congress of August 2, 184, entiled ‘An act to au- thorize the Metropolitan Railroad Company to change its motive power for the propul- sion of the cars of said company,’ being a full recognition of the company’s existence and a conclusive manifestation of the in- tent of Congress that it should continue in the exercise of its franchises.” —e BENNING ASSOCIATION, The Citizens Meet and Consider Some Questions, The Benning Citizens’ Association last night entertained the Brightwood and Northeast Washington associations. After the minutes of the last meeting were read and approved the Benning road commit- tee reported that Mr. Walson had begun we repair of all county roads In and about Ben- ning, as far out as the District line. On motion of Mr. Baker the Anacostia road was added to the schedule of those needing repairs. The secretary was ordered to re- turn the petition in'reference to a substa- tion to the chairman of the special commit- tee having that matter in charge. On mo- tion the invitation to the Mt. Pleasant asso- ciation was tabled indefinitely. Sergeant Kerby of the police force was present and delivered a very interesting speech in refer- ence to the necessity of having a substa- tion built at Benning. He stated that thirty-three years ago there were ten mounted men on this side of the river, whereas toda; with a population three times as large as then, there are only nine mounted men.. He favored the purchase of a site and the erection of a station and sta- Ve, and also said there should be a reserve man to act in the absence of others at court. In a very clear and impassioned manner he urged the association to act promptly and forcibly In the matter, After other minor matters were disposed of Mr, John Duke was initiated as a mem- ber of the association, and it is putting it mildly to say that the degree work brought down the house. i During the half hour recess that followed hot coffee and sandwiches were served to those present, including several ladies, Vice President Mewshaw then delivered an able address on good fellowship, taking co- operation as his watchword. He was fol- lowed by Mr. J. L. Norris of the Bright- wood association, who thought the people of Benning too good-natured and har- meonious. He was loudly cheered, as was also his colleague, Mr. Robinson, of the same association, who spoke forcibly of co- operation, believing that the time was at hand when all suburban associations must stand together. ‘Treasurer Holsten of the Northeast asso- ciation then introduced Major Jerome B. Burke, ex-warden of the jail and vice pres- ident of his association. The major was in a happy frame of mind and kept the entire audience convulsed with laughter tirough- out the course of his remarks, which were full of satire. He was in favor of suffrage in the District, because that would give democrats a chance to vote. He sald they had stopped voting in the states. He was followed by Mr. B. L. Nevins of the exeeu- tive committee of the Northeast association in a neat little speech, after which the meeting adjourned. Cigars were served as the guests departed. SEER EAS Filed a Bil, Henry L. Preston yesterday filed a Dil in equity against the Press Claims Company, a corporatn; Wm. P. Hearst, John Wedderburn and the examiner, bu- reau of claims, asking that the court do- cree that a contract dated December 5, 1893, entered into between the plaintiff and the Press Claims Company may be canceled; that the Press Claims Company be ordered to erase the name of Preston from its books as a stockholder; that the fendants be decreed to pay Preston $810.92 for certain work alleged to have been. performed by him, and that an counting be ordered, ED RUPTURE With il t*4 necompanytng. and angerous fe edlly and config ¢ We mos ROBE palnlera per Kuife not used, oth soces. ats National Hernial Institute, Weeingion gan G St. po ionn,
