Four Thousand Dollars for a Crushed Leg. wA Disagreeing Jury Locked Up for Thirty Hours. Ever since the Supreme Court, Genoral Term, en- tered the business of the present term there has been impatient expectancy on the part of lawyers in Tegard te decision of cases argued before the Court at the Juae Term. The decisions were finally handed in yesterday, and embraced some fifty cases, showing an extent of research and elaboration of writing | Involving necessarily an amount of labor ‘that id aflord ample apology of what might scem at firss glance unnecessary dilatori- ness in their rendition. Most of these cases, however, im their trials and multiplicity of imterlocutory mo- Hons, are pretty well ventilated in the papers before peaohing this tribunal, About ali that remaine to be said of them, therefore, is the giving of points of doci- sions in the more important cases, Aa im, WARY cone, sapecrally to the jndiciary, was Abe suit brought by Edward Lunge against Judge Bene- Giot, of the United States Cours, for $0,000 Jor alleged illegal imprisonment. Lange was couvi ‘nited States District Court, held by Judge Bonediat, of stealing mailbags, which, according to act of Congress, is punisbabie b. fine not exceeding $200 or an imprisonment exceeding one i Judge Benedict imposed both sentences, Lange « ere ‘upon applied for a writ of habeas corpus, and on tho use being carried to the United States Supreme Coury he was discharged on the ground that the imposition of both sentences wae illegal. The case came belore the Supreme Court on an appeal iroma judginent of court below, vverruling w demurrer to the complaint. This Court bolds, Judge Dan- i writing the opinion, which is concurred in by Judges Davie and Brady that Judge Benedict in ‘ing sentence ply exercised his judi 101 shields him from Dility, and that though he might have been erroneous his conclusions he simply did thaf which bis duty seemed to require. 1t will be remembered that whea the mistake made by Judge Benedict 1n inflicting both Dentences was cal'ed to his attention he changed the Bentence as required by law. In regurd to this point, the Court expresses its decisive opimion that no ju- diciary can be either respectable or useini it It is to be held personally responsible for its judicial action. Quite a number of important city cases are umong bhose decitad, John kK, Feilowsa, former Assistant District Attorney, whore salary was reduced by the Board of Apportionmeat from $10,000 to $8,000, hi deen decided as entitied to the original amount. “The Court decides that this officer is «Stato officer, aud ‘that it is not incivded the municipal charter regu- | Jating salaries Michael Dolan ie anvoiver lucky ollice- bolder, When he was ousted by Justice Lane trom bie position as clerk in the Sixth Judicial district aud another man appointed in his piace, and an interval of *Ykee months occurred prior to his re-instaieuent by Gudgment of the Court, he brought suit tor his salary Guring those three months.

[From the San Francisco Post ] Alexander Macdonald, member of the British Parlia- ment for the boroagh of Stafford, Rngland, now stop- ping at the Lick House, is no ordinary man, In the great struggle between capital and labor from his earliest youth he took the side of the masses, from whom he sprang. A mero child, he commenced the struggle for existence in a Lanarksbire colliery nearly half a century ago, when the collior was as very a siave as if it bad been sait to him, as in the old time to Ham, ‘tA slave and a servant shalt thou be,” when not only was he a alavo, but his wife was @ slave, and his male child and bis female child were slaves, and biack and begrimed with coal-dust while yot intants. ie has lived to 6 all this changed ; to seo the collier a man well paid and cared for, his wife relegated to the «phere of womanly duties, and his child released from a bondage wor tha» Egyptian, From this glorious victory over sor- didness, ignorance and wrong Mr, Macdonald's namo ja inseparable, Nor have his lavers been confined to the miners, among whom he was born. They nave e tended and embraced all workinginen. As President of the National Association of Coal Miners, as Presi dent of the Parliamentary section of the Trade Union | Congress, and as the workingmen’s choice for Stafford, | he has ever been the friend of the miners, among | whom he worked, and the ranks of labor he is proua to represent. A TALK WITH xR, Feeling that the views of such aman on the current | topics of the day could not but be of public interost, | | | MACDOXALD, a Post representative called on Mr, Macdonald at bis rooms the other day and was warmly received by that gentieman, Mr, Macdonald untortunately sustained Awovere accident by being thrown [rom his carriago at St Loals, which bas contined him to his rooms since his arri He is a gentleman a littie over fifty, with hair ‘a sable silvered, ” 13 tall and possessed of afine physique, His forohead ig high and brond, and in the perceptive region very prominent, His logical speaker, In reply to afew preliminary ques- tions he said that ho wished to correct a mi He was not the representativo of If ho represented any would be the shoo- class of workingmen 1t Tho irue facts of the case were simply these:—''Tho workingmen ot Stafford applied to the trades union to nominate somo one who, if elected, would represent their in- lerosts, and my name, with those of tive or six others, was given, 1 was selected from the number and stood | Os candidate in the workingmen’s interesis,? | TRADK UNIONISM. “From your experience, Mr, Mandonald, do you think trade unions have oifvoved much real good tor the working classes f”” | “1 do nos think it, [know It, When I was a child P was no labor organization eYeramony the miners, aud they all lived ina state of serfdom. Almost from the moinent a child came into the world tt had to commence to iabor—voys and to work yself at eigit years of age), untti the growth both of mind sud body were stunted, The women had to neg- lect every moiherly duty and slave like horses, for if every momber of the {ataily did not work eve: ence would be impossible. What bas organization accomplished in this alone? Boys cannot be eimpioyed twelve years o! age, and it is iliegal to as beasts of burden, in wages and materi: comtort, capital in the Commons ana in the Lords fought against iabor at every step. It was said if you shorten the hours of labor you will reduce production. If you wil pot allow us to employ women and chil- dren, you will take away from the pour widow her means of living. This was the idea of philanthropy possessed by the capitalists. They killed the tatber and made the child an orphan, and then wanted to make slaves of bot mother and children, But produc- tion bas not decreased. Ln Scotiand alone it vas ine creased from 50,000,000 tons at the beginning of the century to 130,000,000 1n 1874. The dear widows and orphans are fewer in number and better cared for by organized labor than i they were leit at the mercy of capital,” “What is the fundamental principle of trade union- ism ¢”” “That the laborer is worthy of bis hire, That when coal or any other commodity increases in price the wages of the producers should increase ulso, for the simple reason that when prices are low it always de- creases, This certainly is not too much to ask, aod | this prmeipie we have in a measure established, “TRADE UNIONS FIGHT CAPITAL with capital, and tho whole body of workingmen tax themselves to support those who have been compelled to sirike, The trade union does not iavor strikes, Un the contrary, it 8 always anxious to submit the rival ciaims of inuster and Workman to arbitration, and Woereag in the old Utne capital would laugh at such an | idea, it now readily leaves matters in dispute to third | parties and abides by their decision. In a word, the trade duion has overthrown the doctrine that man has | no rigs which captialis bound to respect—that capital 1s oasnipotent.”” TOR MOLLY MAGUIRES. “T suppose you have visited the coal Penusyivania en roule, Mr, Macdouaid 1” “No; L bave not been even to the Centennisl, ak though 1 purpose making a flying visit betore my re- turo,” “was anxious to have your opinions on the dis- turbances (here ?”” “Well, [may tell you this much, that there is no earthly connection between the Molly Maguires aud trado umbaisin, The ourrages I atiribute in a pumber of cases to personal inalice. Wo have had our own districts of fasten (he Diane of them ow trade uniouinm, but it (erly failed, Lf Franklin B, Gowen, who heads the al combinavion in the fight of capital ayainst labor, could prove that there was any connection between the Moliy Maguire outrages and the organized miuers, with John Simvy at there head, he would have cone x0, isut he could uot prove that which bad no exist. ence." “the New York Graphic recontly stated that John | Siney ad disappeared from the leadership of the ors, ue Graphic is wrong. He bas not disappearod, nor do I think it likely ihat he will disappear.” THE BULGARIAN OUTRAGHS. “Mr. Macdonald, what do you think tho effect of Turkey’s conduct in Bulgaria and Servia is likely to have on the British people?” “rhe eifect bas been, it 1 may judge by the papers, to arouse a storin of indigaauion against the govern- ment, and it would not surprive me if an sutuma ses sion of Partameat was called, 1 purposed making a mu tour through Arizona, for the purpose of colivcting | g IMiOrMALION as Lo Ibs alirretions 48a Held Lor immigra- tion, but] will bave to abandon the iuea, as I would hike to be im my seat if an autumn session ts called.” “Do you think that a vote fidence in the ge ernment would be likely to pi jew of the present indignation” “It mw wot at all likely, When the newn of those outrages, which are a disgrace w humanity, lo the age we live 1d and to any government that would bolster Up the power that perpetuates them, reached England the government denied thas Mr. Schuyler’s account of those flendish atrocities and MacGaban’s letters to the Daily News were accurate, and asserted that the out- | rages were few in hamber and ol the ordinary o acter Inseparablo from warlare, whereas weave son to suspect that the Ministers were well aware at the time that the published accounts wero true in every particular, aod that Janguage could not paint tho horrors of tho war waged on the Bulgarians.” “Hobart Pacha, in bis letter to the aii Mall Gazette, said that there Were outrages on the part of the Bul- garians a8 uirocious as those of the Turks?” Lido not believe this, Hobart Pacha is a Turkish admiral, even if he is an Eoglishmau, and in any case | two biacks never make a white, [tis a per cot dis- grace to us to support Turkey.” DIPLOMACY OF RNGLAND, ‘As I understand it England supports Tarkey in n order to prev iA trom deco ga power in Kurope, which might eventuaily weaken ber own in- berests."” “Ido not think England has anything to fear from Russia, Kuss is a very iarge country, but it is a very poor one.
