Dres Moives, Ta, June 8—|Special Tele- gram to the Brr, 'he new chambers of the supreme court at the new capitol were for- mally dedicated to-day with approprimte and fmposing ceremonies, The occasion marked not only the occupancy for the first time of the elegant and commodions quarters, but signalized the first session of the court in its permanent quarters sinee the law locating all fterms of the court at the capital was passed. “The main court ehamber is not surpassed in beauty, elegance and convenience by any in the United States. The allegorieal frescoes on the ceillug were brought from Germany. The bench before the court is of imassive carved mahogany. The upholster- Ang and furnishings are rich and luxurious, and in keeping with the elesance that per- yades the whole buil¢ Opening from the main chamber are sepa chly fur- nished, for each officer and member of the court, and a general consultation room for the entire bench. When the crier announced the appearance of the supreme court this morning, an andience composed of the leading members of the Iowa bar, the goaernor and other state oflicers rose to greet them, The entire bench of five judges, Chief Justice Adams presiding, occupied the dais, and In front of them sat Justice Samuel F. ‘Miller. of the United States supreme court, Justice Wilson, the only surviving member of the territorial supreme bench: ex-Justices Cole, Day, Miller and Wright, of the su- preme bench; Congressman B, J. Hall, of Burlington; the entire senate in a body, and other distinguished citizens. ix-Senator George G. Wright, of this city, was the first speaker, and gave the address of welcome, and spoke with a feeling recollection of the early days of the court. Thomas S. Wilson, ot Dbbuque, the onl viving member of the territorial ben <Iowa, represented the profession of that day, and recalled some of the interesting features of court life and the transactions with the In- dians before Lowa bec: asta ustice C. C. Cole, of this city, spol miembers of the state bench. Professor ., 'arvin, of Cedar Rapids, read an historical ketch' of the olden bar.

MHis remarks were 80 full of tenderness and pathos that it was with difficulty he fimld control his emotion sufliciently to utter hem, Interesting letters were read from Hon. ¥rancis Springer of Louisa county, ‘who was president of the first constitutional pnvention held 1v Iowa, and Juage John I, Bl]lml of New York city, formerly the pride “and ornament of the state and federal bench The Impeachment Trial. Des MoiNgs, Ia., Jun® 8.—This has been dry day in the impeachment court. The only points scored were clearly in favor of the accused auditor. A book keeper and an lssvl.llnnt secretary of the Hawkeye insur- “ance company were on the witness stand, ‘but nothing was elicited in relation to that company. Their statements of the methods of doing business illustrated the need of the examination and the tediousuess of the work. B. F. Allen, the well known president of the Cook County bauk, now president of the .. Menarch .Insurance company, of Des Moines, was called. The company was organized in 1851, and known as the Oskaloosa insur- ance company. It removed to Des Moines in 1884, and the name (ehanged to the Monarch, with the same i management except the president. 1t was examined by Mr. Vall in 1884 ata cost of “$1,017. No protest was made as to excessive charges. Mr. Shannon, bookkeeper of the same company, was then sworn. His cross- ‘extmination branched out alittle into the mature of the report which resulted from all's examination of the company. The nagers struggled desperately to close the door of inquiry into matters of that sort, but the court overruled them. The witness ad- itted the fact set forth in the report that in 2 ecember, 1583, the directors sed a resolu- tion assessing the stocl make good an impairmentof capital, and after he annual stateiment was made in January, ,-another lution was passed authori @ g of this money to the stock- ol ho outeropping of this little fact “ereated an impression. ‘Ihe Bremer County ink was again heard from this afternoon. r, Linsch, who served as cashier after the iscovery of the erookedness of the former ier, was called by the prosecution, His t examination did notin the least affect actual solvency of the hank. On cross- ~ "examination he swore positively that in pril, 1834, after Brown’s examination, the ke biad avallable assets excteding all its liabilities to outside parties, It had’ enough ides to pay 875,000 of stock and_liabilities lgave 4500 of surplus, That sworn ment he mhade as cashier and he again ified it by oath to-day.
