A suit growing out of the recent arbitration between Connor Bros, and F. Abascal Co. was filed in the Circuit Court yesterday. The plaintiffs are Federico Abascal and Pedro Ruiz, doing business as F. Abascal Havana, Cuba.

The defendants are P. P. Connor, M. J. Connor and Geo.

F. Powell, doing- business as Connor Bros. St. Louis. The Havana firm alleges that on July 23, 1S94, it contracted with Schawab Tillman, agents of the defendants at Havana.

In which Jt was stipulated that Connor Bros. Co. were to deliver to them at Havana fi.Ouo sacks of St. Louis yellow corn at cents per bushel, the corn to l.e placed on the wharfent Havana by Aus. 1H, 1S9I, but that only 791 sacks were delivered; that It also contracted with the defendants for the delivery of sacks, to be delivered at X'ensacola, Fla.

It is then claimed that had the sacks been promptly tielivered it would have reached Havana be-lore the passage of theWilson bill, and that after the passage of the Wilson bill the reciprocity treaty between the United States and Spain, which admitted corn into Cuba free, was annulled by the Spanish Government, and the old Spanish tariff duties on orn were restored. The plaintiffs claim that upon the restoration of these duties they were compelled to pay a tar i it on the vorn. They furthermore state that they presented the above facts to the defendant? and agreed to arbitrate the matter, and S. S. Merrell.

J. St. Janes and Amauee B. Cole were selected to adjust the. loss sustained by the plaintiffs, but that the defendants managed to get some surreptitious evidence before the arbitrators of which the plaintiffs had no knowledge, the result being that the arbitrators found for plaintiff for only $1,778.58.

This finding the Havana firm repudiates, and asks judgment against the defendants for J33.GM), which amount they claim they would have realized had not Spain reinstated her tariff duties on corn. A PARTNER SUIT. J. X. Crouch sued Moses Greenwood, in the Circuit Court yesterday to recover He alleges that in 1SS8 he was a member of the real Atate firm of Carr ireenwood and the firm sold the W.

He was raid as his uro portionate part of the transaction 510 shares of the stock of the investment and later necame possessed of 7fl shares, which upon tie dissolution or the hrm of Carr (ireennooii, he alleges, he turned over to ItWhwoo'I. and for which he alleges he hat, not been paid.

He sues for the alleged value of the stock, and $'J services. for CHANGING GRADES. An interesting question relative to th change of grades was argued and submitted in the Circuit Court yesterday. The point was whether the special remedy provided in tr.e general statutes for assessing dam sifres and benefits arising out of a change or graae in tne streets or the city Is con stitutional, and it was argued before Judge ainant in court room cy Citv Coun selor Marshall for the city and bv Mr. Lev erett Led against the same, and will probably be-iecided shortly.

The facts of. tbe case are that the McMurrav-Judge Iron Co occupies valuable premises at Papin and iwenty-nrst streets, ne city Dy ordinance changed the grade of the streets ad joining the premises. Thereupon the com pany commenced an action against the city ivi tjriniae a.nu procurea an injunction restraining the citv from interfer if.c with the graiit- until the damages are ascertained ami paid. Subsequently the city brought the above proceeding against tbe MacMurray-Juige company and a large number of other cfendants to have the lamagrs and benelits arising from said tiro posed change of Rraile assessed by a board of three commissioners. Now the Iron company, by its attorney, Jlr.

Bell, moves to nave the proceeding dismissed as to It. alleging the law to be unconstitutional, and further contending that the matter at is sue must be determined in a case brought tiy me company against the city, and not in tne subsequent proceeding brought by i ne cny against tne company. TO TEST BELL'S POWER. The power of the Excise Commissioner is to be determined by the State Supreme Court, and the question of how far he pos sesses discretionary power is to be determined. Application was made to the Su prcnie t.Vurt Saturday by W.

H. Toney for a -writ or mandamus to compel Commissioner Hell issue a dramshop license at No. uhvp street. The issues pre sented will be the same as those submitted to Judge Dillon, who held that although Mr. Toney hail the necessary number of sis-natures to his petition, and there was nothing to show that he was not a man of good character, yet the Commissioner had the discretion to refuse the license, being possessed of the same authoritv conferred 'inon County Courts and the City Collector in that respect.

IJRt'CK-IIOVAXOXI CASE. A return was yesterday filed by the Court of Appeals to the alternative writ of man damus issued by the State Supreme Court In the Giovanoni-Bruck contested election case. The Court of Appeals held that Giovfinoni was an Intruder and not entitled to a seat in the House of Delegates from the l-'ltth Ward. Mr. Giovanonrs counsel Mr.

Bell, then applied to the Supreme ourt tor a writ oi manuamus to compel the Court of Appeals to certify the record in the case to the fcufrerr.e Court. The re turn oi tne tourt oi -vppeais, which was prepared by the judges ot that tribunal, sets up that the Court of Appeals has final Jurisdiction of the mattter and hence ought not to be compelled to certify the record to tne supreme court. The question at is sue is whether or not the House of Dele gates is the pole judge of the qualifications oi its members, ana it will be argued to morrow. UNION STATION LIENS.

Police Notiflsd to Arrest A'l Not Hav-icff The fraternity of toal hucksters are in a rather bad plight, the result of an order issued by Chief Harrigan on the complaint of Mayor Walbridge. The Retail Coal Dealers" Association recently held a meeting and a petition was sent to Mayor Walbridge by them request ing that the coal hucksters who had no peddlers' license be prevented peddling coal on the streets. The petition also complained, it is said, of the number of these hucksters.

1 he record was examined at the Mayor's office, and it was found that there were no permits outstanding lor this purpose. The complaint of the Retail Coal Dealers' Association was then forwarded to Chief Harrigan by Mayor Walbridge with the request that all coal peddlers without a license be arrested. An order to this effect was sent out by Chief Harrigan to all the police districts, and the result was the arrest of a number of negro and white hucksters who have been making a living unmolested for years by selling coal in bushel baskets from wagons. As soon as the hucksters gained their release they went to Mayor Walbridge lor redress and were referred by him to the City Collector, they being in quest of a huckster or ha vker's license. City Collector Ziegen-hein inquired Into the law on licenses of this kind and inffimed the applicants he could not issue a license to them to peddle coal, as that vocation was not classified specifically or generally in any provision of the law.

Mayor Walbridge being unable to ai 1 the peddlers and Collector Zeigenhein not having authority to act, the delegation, some in their wagens and others on foot, went to the Four Courts to see Chief Harrigan, but they were Informed there that the police could not authorize them to peddle coal, and unless they had a license to do so they would not be allowed to peddle and furthermore would be liable to arrest anil prosecution. There are quite a number of hucksters affected by this ruling, and there are anv number of poor families, so they claim, who have been in the habit, out of necessitv, of buying coal from these hucksters, who" will be put to inconvenience and probably expense.

"ot. 24. Tha tip sent oat last weet from Boston to tbe effect that the Burlington rond wonld declare Its usual quarterly dlvldead caused eereral heavy losses in tha" Street, and is likely to be productive of lawsuits. As is now taown. tha dividend had been scaled down to 1 per cant.

A number of brokers had orders to buy providing the regular dividend was declared. When tha bogus announcement came there was a scramble to buy. As soon as the true facts were known the stork dropped, customers for wnom buying orders were executed now refuse to take the stocks, and tbe brokers have big looses to meet. In this emergency they look to Dow, Jones, the news agency that sent out the information. The latter claim that they were derelred as well as the brokers, and refuse to accept tha llablilty.

If the brokers used tee news It was at their own risk. A test suit Is to be brought to establish Just what constitutes official news. A member of the firm sclrt to-day that if the firm decided a news agency was an official source ot Information, sucu concerns would have to go out of business. "RAINBOW WILLIE.

Jay Edwards of the Philadelphia Press, who refused to answer questions as to the source of the information before the Senate Sugar Trust Investigation Committee, were Hied by Judpe J. i'en-hoefer, to-day. The day for the arguments in the case has not been set yet. The demurrers are alike in both cases. Twenty-four separate grounds of objection are set up.

These include those heretofore made in behalf of brokers who refused to testify, and others, particularly applicable to press correspondents. The demurrers urge that the Senate resolution fails to show that the Investigation Committee Mas empowered to try any Senator for disorderly conduct, or that saiii inquiry was for the purpone of assisting the Senate in. any legislative or judicial action. It is also set up to answer the question propounded to the correspondents, would tend to criminate them and render them liable to criminal prosecution, fine and penalty; would tend also to render them guilty of a contempt of the Senate and of its members, and liable to prosecution, fine and penalty; and would tend to degrade them in compelling them to disclose private, confidential and privileged communications. The point is also made that the power to punish for refusing to make answer cannot be delegated by the Senate thtij Court or to any Jury of the District of Columbia.

The fourteenth objection is as follows: "That the laws under which the indictments were found are unconstitutional In that thev violate the provisions of the Constitution of the United States, securing the people in their person, house, papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures and declaring that no person shall be compelled to be a witness against himself." Another oblection is that the committer was appointed to investigate certain charges published in the New York and Philadelphia newspapers, as set forth in said resolution, and that the article that is alleged to have been published appeared In another New York newspaper after the said publication in the Philadelphia papere.
