COMMERCIAL. On 'Change. The question of closing the Exchange next Saturday, was the subject ot some conversation on the floor to-day, but as there seemed to be a general unanimity ot feeling in favor of two holidays there was nothing of the nata.ro of a discussion.

New York and Chicago have already decided to adjourn over Saturday. The St. Louis Exchange cannot well do better than to take a rest after the arduous labors involved in a proper observance of the national holiday. The following petition was presented to the President of the Exchange this morning: To the Hon. President and Directors ot the Merchants' Exchange of St.

Louis: We the undersigned members of the Merchants' Exchange would respectfully request you to call a meeting of the members of the Exchange to consider a motion to adjourn the Exchange from 1 p. m. July 3d to July 7th. Signed by over forty members. In response to the petition the President will call a meeting of mtnibers to-morrow (Tuesday) at 12:30 to consider the matter.

Lindsay Must Return $25,000 Worth of Property. Lands Conveyed to Children During the Parents' Lifetime are Advancements, Not Gifts. The suit of John O'F. Delany agaiust Miss Mary E. Boyce was decided by Judge Boyle this morning.

The original suit was upon the demand made by Miss Boyce upon Mr. Delaney 'and Mrs. Lindsay for a return into hotchpot of certain alleged advancements iiibde to them by their mother, Mrs. Octavia Boyce. Mrs.

Boyce. during her life-time, had given to John O'F. Delaney an amount of laud in St. Louis county, and to Mrs. Lindsay land and a certain amount of money.

Miss Boyce claimed that tnese were not gifts but advancements made to the plaintiffs, and plaintiffs filed their cross action asking that some $40,000 alleged to have been given to Miss Boyce by herj mother, was also an advancement and not a gift. The suit came on for trial and the judgment now delivered declares that money given to children is a gift ana cannot be afterwards reckoned as part of the child's share of the estate. Land, however, according to certain quoted decisions ot the Supreme Court when deeded to children must be considered part their share. Hence the money given to Mrs. Lindsay will not be thrown into hotchpot, but concerning the land, the judgment reads thus: "Mr.

Boyce considered the two tracts of equal value and intended the one to offset or equalize the other. This view is supported by the fact that in caring for her children out of her income, she seems to have intended, as far I was iiracticable. to show uo Dartialitv. From all the opinions given, I am of the opinion that these two tracts were at the time the deeds were respec tively made of aoout eqnal value, and that they are each worth the sum of $25,000 a ne commissioners to ue appointed wilt therefore be ordered to first assign and set apart to the defendant, out of the unimproved real est.te, an amount in value equal to $25,000, and that partition of the remainder be then made equally between the said children.

The Dakota Southern Railroad and the Coul-son steamboat line have combined and reduced freight rates nearly one-halt from Sioux City to points above on the Missouri.

The opening ot the week came accompanied by the close of the month, and, as may be im agined, the tendency was not toward an increase of business anions the banks. A couple of the busiest reported matters as quiet but not really dull, but at most banks dull is the only really expressive word. The demand for money was almost entirely nominal, and certainly was entirely of a routine character. Money continues in ample supply, and with the proper security can be had at easy rates. New Y'ork exchange is steadily accumulating, and is piling up in a growing, unmanageable surplus.

Small sales were maae at $1 discount, but the sellers at that figure were largely in excess of buyers. On the street there was a very fair trading in securities. Speculative stocks were forced down a shade generally, but it seems worthy of note that there was a positive firmness back of the bear efforts. Fcur per cent consols in good demand and sold quite freely. City and State bonds were quiet and only steady, although they have Deen strengthening in New York recently.

Transactions were nearlv all in miscellaneous lots, and in very few instances were any particulars had for publication. BtocKs ana rjonas. Coirected by L. A. Coquard.

A Lengthy Opinion Delivered by the Court. An Interview With Judge Laughlin Concerning the Case.

The Finn contempt case had a sensational ei'ding in the Criminal Court this morning. Soon after Judge Laughlin had taken his seat be proceeded to read an opinion ia the matter, at the conclusion of which be sentenced Sheriff Finn to imprisonment in the city Jail for six hoars to pay a fine of five dollars. The) history of the case Is fully set forth in the opinion of tie Judge, which is berejgiven In full. There were only a few in the room at the time the opinion was read, neither Fin a nor bis attorney being there. It was the first case of the kind that has ever occurred In St.

Louis, and naturally created a vast amount of comment. THE OPINIO! of Judge Laughlin is as follows: The facts involved in this proceeding are as follows: On the 5th day of June last a suit whs penuing in tue circuit uourc, ana depositions therein wore being taken before a Notary Public. A grand juror, serving as such in this Court, was subpoenaed. Failing to respond, an attachment was, by the notary, issued for him and. for was Placed in the hands of the respondent, who is Sheriff of the city of St.

Louis. The respondent gave it to one of his deputies, who appeared before the Court witu the writ, ana in com-ranv with Mr. Gross. the grand juror wanted before the notary. Being engaged in the work specially submitted to the grand iurv.

the Court declined to excuse him and orderea the deputv to desist from serving the attachment. The deputy then left the court-room and Mr. Gross returned to the grand jury room. Shortly after this the same Deputy Sheriff appeared in court with the writ and announced to the Court that he had been Instructed to "bring that man," and when interrogated more closely said he was told to "bring him dead or alive." Mr. Gross was then sent for.

and the deputy again ordered to desist from serving the attachment. lie was also ordered by the Court to go back with his writ and say to his superior that the (irt would positively not allow tne to come or to DetaKen until tne ionowing this being Thursday. But he claimed tractions were positive, ana, uuing consider ana to reflect on the to take the mau unless pro- ourt committed him for 'for a contempt and directed forth to the notary ana the pear and show why mot be punished in me fid for the same oifonse. A making the order the Court, in lie instructions given the deDuty, rthe back of the attachment, for of all persons concerned, the fol- r.oranuum: loss will appear on Saturday uis aeposuion. ueiore 'cannot.

without inconvenience vand jury, allow him to do so. HESKr U. nemorandnm was shown to the respott- the deputy when he returned without Itness, and it was alter this that he gave deputy the order to "bring him" or linn dead or alive. ihe deputy also "attempted to respondent, but that i respondent, how Jim the beneflc of ittachment the iad ample the court's of HIT and should have at xibeyed it. The tact that he was ordered otherwise by the notary, the attorneys i the ivil suit, or any one else.

is no excuse for him. The order of the court was superior to all others, and should have been so treated by him. After being advised of it he in effect instructed his deputy to disregard it. In an effort to cany out his instructions the deputy attempted (but in a manly way) to do so, and his act was the act of bis chief. It was the act of every one causing it or counseling it.

But though guilty, his guilt is not rank. He acted from fear and under a threat which he believed would be carried into execution. This is the palliating circumstance which the court will allow largely to mitigate the punishment. The objection to the validity of the order by reason of the failure of the clerk to enter it upon the court records until the third day after it was made has not been urged, and not considered. The respondent is adjudged guiltv of a criminal contempt, and sentenced to imprisonment in the city jail tor six hours ana to pay a line of five dollars and costs.

THE commitment was gone to work ou by the clerk soon after the Judge had finished reading bis opinion. It was the first document of the kind that had ever been prepared in the Criminal Court, and considerable care was exercised in making it out. JUDGE LAUGHLIN was interviewed before the commitment was served "This is the first case of the kind that bas ever occurred here, is it nor. Judge?" -I believe it is." "Do you think Finn will get mad?" "Oh, I don't know." "What do you think he will do?" "I think be will act like a little man." "Goto jail?" hat else can he do? Mr. Finn knows that I am right.

I could not have done otherwise. The dignity of the Court and the law must be uohcld. This is nothing more than an example, and Mr. Finn will take that view ot it." The Judge did not seem to be at all uneasy, although it was rumored that the Sheriff was coming up with all his deputies armed and ready to clean out the Criminal Court. he commitment was made at 2 o'clock and put in the hands ot Deputy Marshal Blan-chard who proceeded to the Court-house and SERVED THE PAPERS on the Sheriff.

Mr. Forrest, counsel for Mr. Finn, was called in. He said the Sheriff would have to go the Four Courts. As soon as the party arrived Mr.

Farrish veut up to see Judge Lauirh- linTo There was a long interview and tiftresuif was that a motion was filed for a rehcavingTVipd the case deferred till to morrow. Thus matter ended for the day. ABOUf TOWN. The Wachusett is coming. Costiveness prevented by Reed's Gilt Tonic.
