These are grave matters and it is little wonder that federal circles are more perturbed than they have been since the warring days of long ago. LITTLE INVALIDS CHEERED. The Suffering Tots in the Chil- dren’s Hospital Made Happy. The suffering little tots confined in the Children’s Hospital were made happy yesterday afternodn by the presence of visiting friends, who thronged there to greet them with words of cheer, Kind hearted nurses clad In snow Wwhite gowns and aprons flitted about the room 1i ing joy and consolation to each patient little sufferer stretched out on his or her cot, with bright eyes taking ob- servations of all there to add to the comforts of those who, by reéason of thelr maladies, were | deprived of enjoying Christmas like | other and more fortunate children. Out of the 300 Iittle patients con- fined in the Children’s Hospital, sixty that are classed as incurables were hoisted from their ward in the elevator to what is known as the “Sun Room,” in the rotunda of the building. Here a Christmas tree was decorated with presents. The gifts, on this as occasions, came from the his name being mentioned, but erosity is moved out of sym- pathy for the little sufferers, and be- 2 had a dear boy who was at ¢ a patient in the hospital.

But there are evidences that the young man in the customs department believes he is a lineal descendant of the Bolingbroke branch of the family, some of whose descendants in that they be called “Sinjun,” rather than Saint John. If this is the case—and it is borne out by the family motto— there would be great need of varying the regalia. The measurer of vessels | would be guilty of a grave breach of royal etiquette if he should wear any- | thing less than the-proper wardrobe of | “a baron by land tenure.” The coronet would contain six sllver balls jlngling‘ on a plain circle of gold; cap of crim- | gon velvet, turned up ermine, with a ! gold tassel appended thereto.

For several days past seventy-five law students have been answering questions of law before the examin- ers of the Supreme Court, but the an- swers given were not all correct, for of the applicants for admission to practice only fifty passed muster.

B whether he sprang from the branch of | the family that cleaned the royal har- | ness or the branch that held the king’s | sword is a mystery in federal circles | to this day. But there is another phase of the case which is creating a great deal of speculation. Attorney Thomas D. Rior- dan, Judge John Garber, Judge Van R. Paterson and others have been consult- ed as to whether a federal emplove, even the humblest officer, has a right to hold any title or tenure of office, in- signia or designation from any prince or foreign potentate during the period of his incumbency. In the event of war with a foreign nation the local scion of royalty might be fired with hereditary instincts, might have a strong desire to strike for the land of his sires, In such a constituency the laws of hered- ity might lead him to blow up an American® ship with dynamite, for he would have access thereto as measurer. ‘With the sanction of federal authority thus stamped upon him, sanctioned by liam H.

Among the successful ones, now at- torneys, are two well-known news- paper men of this city. Arthur H. Bar- endt has been connected with the press of San Francisco for many years, but it is understood that he will give up the pencil for law book. Edward D. Crawford is also well known, having .worked on all of the big dallles. He will not entirely abandon his old fleld, for he has purchased a newspaper in one of the southern counties, which he will conduct with his law busi- ness.

Juror | )Smnh has been found not to have | been in contempt of court, and he has | | been released, and the only result is the strengthening of the coaviction | that the prisoner’s hope is In the Gov- | ernor alone. | Juror Smyth has been discharged, | but he is not entirely free; he has es- | | caped the contempt matter only to find | | himself sued for $50,000 damages for | slander by Mrs. Durrant, the action be- | ing based on the statements for which he was cited for contempt. John H. Dickinson and W. W. Foote are the at- | torneys, and Mrs. Isabella Durrant and W. A. Durrant are plaintiffs. Then, too, the machinery of the Su- | preme Court will be started again this morning on an appeal from the sen- tence last passed by Judge Behrs, and a writ of probable cause will be asked | for to stay the execution until the ap- | peal can be heard. | The time is short, and the attorneys | | are working quickly, but still more than ever it is believed that Durrant has played his last card. The proceedings before Judge Wal- lace yesterday were very short. Gen- eral Dickinson opened the afternoon with a motion for a continuance until Monday. He based his motion on the fact that yesterday morning he had | received a letter telling him of four people who would testify that the | statements made by Smyth were based | on Information he received while ac- | tually a juror in the case. He said it would take until Monday to arrange | this evidence In proper form for pre- | sentation, | Judge Wallace asked to see the let- | ter, and, after reading it, he denied the motion for a continuance, as he | satd he could not learn from the writ- | | ing that the evidence it referred to | | would affect the case. | The attorneys were ordered to pro- | ceed, and Foote was asked if he would | further cross-examine Smyth. He said | “no.” He was asked if he had further | testimony and again he sald no. Henry E. Highton, who represented Smyth, was asked if he had any tes- | | timony and he said he had nothing to | offer. Then the attorneys were asked | if they would argue the case. Mr. | | Foote declined, and Mr. Highton satd | he had nothing to argue. | Then Judge Wallace read the short | | opinfon he had prepared and Juror | Smyth was told he could go. The| | opinion was as follows: The accusation exactly stated that Bmyth, while sitting as a Juropr in the case of Durrant, did recefve informa- tion bearing upon the merits of the | case other tI the information he re- ceived through the testimony adduced in open court in the regular proceed- ings leading up to the verdict found in that case. In support of the accusa- tion it has been proved by the evidence of several gemtlemen of unim- ached and unimpeachable intel- ence and Integrity that on several occasions—the earliest one be- ing several months after the. verdict had been rendered and judgment pro- | nounced thereon—he (8myth) had open- | ly declared that while sitting as such juror he had received informationunfa- vorable to Durrant other than such as he had obtatned by the evidence given in court at the trial. But the fact that Smyth did in fact recelve sueh Infor- mation other than that afforded by the evidence given in court must be proved by evidence more specific and satisfac- | tory than his statement that did— | declarations made by him long after he | had ceased to act as such ’umr and had united in the verdict rendered in the Durrant case. One who has been +a juror and united in rendering a ver- dict and been discharged from further consideration of a case will not ordi- narfly be heard by the court to assall the verdict In which he has concurred, even by his own affidavit filed in im- peachment of the verdict. It is against the recognized policy of the law that he should be rormmed to do that. Such is the rule :{pnuble to_a motion made for a new trial. If a discharged juror be called in question for such isconduct he is called In question for zlony committed by him. Smyth here denies under oath that he has gullty of the offe , and In the ab- sence of independent proof that he is gullty In fact, his mere declarations, subsequently made, that he committed the offense, however satisfactorily ho! do not of themselves amount clent proof of {uu‘:.° e be disqharged. been sul The judgment is that General Dickinson showed the letter to no one but the Judge. Even hig as- sociates had not seen it, for he sald it was a confidential matter, and all kinds of trouble would follow if he showed it to any ome. The attorneys for Durrant took their defeat with evi- dent concern. ‘While the case was in progress be- fore Judge Wallace Mr. Boardman, of Durrant’s counsel, was hunting for Judge Bahrs to present to him a transcript on appeal and ask for a writ of probable cause. He found the Judge, made his tion, and it wes promptly denied. This morning he will file his transcript in the Su- J 'HERRIN BALL | WILLIAM H. GAGAN, Who Died Aft:r a Long Iliness. William H. Gagan, who at one time not many years ago was a well known writer for the daily and weekly journals of this city, and who re- cently conducted a drugstore at California and Hyde streets, is dead. Death came to him yesterday morning after a long illness. He had for | many wzeks been a sufferer from an affection of the lungs, and for days he has not been able to leave his homs at 2608 Folsom street. Mr. Gagan was well known and popular both as a business man and as a member of the newspaper fraternity. He was in hi unger days a drug clerk, but the life for a time cid not suit him and he branched into journalism. He was long connected with the reportorial staffs of the three morning pa- pers, and by his honesty of purpose and pleasant ways he made a host of friends. A few years egn he deserted the life of a newspaper man and opered a drugstore for himself at Hyde and California streets. He had many friends in the political arena, and-he was always a popular figure at the conventions of the old-line parties. He came most prominently | before the public a short time agoc as the foreman of the celebrated “Gagan Grand Jury.” 3 Ha was but 35 years of age, and he leaves a widow and a family of two children to mourr his early death. preme Court and ask for a writ pending the hearing.

The statements made by Smyth had been heard before, but no notice was taken of them. Now, however, the attorneys for Mrs. Durrant are de- termined that Smyth shall answer for them, and it is certain that there will be some exciting scenes in court before the matter is settled.
