It waa noticed that tho packages did not bear tho nsnal marks. or any other Indication of their having oees sent through tho ordinary channels, and what also struck people as peculiar wa that not one of tho skins had a bullet bole In It. It Is now re ported on good authority that these skins were sent by the officers of the Russiaa warship, which left Robins xeiaaa last September, and It la pre sumed tart tho eaterprlse was the private speculation of those who were' seat there to protect tho seals.

CLARK'S HAIIY SUITS The Soldier Was a Defendant Twenty-live Times. CH1EGED 7ITH TEESPASS. Ctnplaiat ef Joha Saunders, a KizktjKiarodofCIJ. LAVVYJ1U T. PERKTTfS.

Despite the hardship which were endured by those hardy pioneers who long so laid the foundations for this beautiful city, they had plenty of time to en sace In that costliest of all luxuries, UUsatioa In tho courts of law. And not. withstanding the fact that he was large, ly engased In suppressing and extermi-aatlnc the Indiana, one of tbe chief flcures of the Uticstioa of early days was Geo. George Rogers Clark. But tbe General norms not to havs cone to law from choice.

Tout rather from necessity, tor In none of the cases to which he was a party was hs the complainant. Between 1781 aad ITS? he was sued ao' less than twenty-five times, the most common complaint against him beinc trespass. Be was sued for some astonishingly large sums, too, but every, thine came high In those days. The fifty-fourth suit Clod In the coun. ty of Jefferson was first against Gen.

Clark. Th lain till In the case waa one Ell Cleveland, who was again a complainant against Clark In 1783 and la 1786. recovering a Judgment la one of these eases; as recited below. Several of the complainants tn the suits against Clark alleged that they had been unlawfully restrained of their liberty and thrust Into prison by him. Among those who brought suit were Cleveland.

Andrew Heth, John Sanders, John Hotker, James Runels, James Egnesf, Capt. James Winn. Laurence Brasadon. James Reynolds, John Donne's administrator, 8unuel Wat-kins, Thomas Nicholson, James Bevard, John Lewis, William Johnson. Pat Do-ran.

Fentacost Dorsey and Christopher WyanL Th first case In which the General figured was Instituted by the Commonwealth of Virginia at the instance of one Eli Cleveland, and the defendant would probably have been placed la tbe lock-up but for bis position. The following warrant was Issued for him: "Commonwealth of Virginia to tbs Sheriff of Jefferson county, greeting: We command you to take George Rogers Clark.

Clark, making this return on the book: "Executed A no surety given." There Is no record of what was don in the case, nor In what the alleged trespass consisted.

The complaint was made on March 13. 1782. the alleged wrongs having been committed In 1781. before Clerk Meredith who placed a writ la th hands of Deputy Eherlff Benjamin Pope.

The following tlgnlfi- cant return wa mad by the officer: "Executed and GoaL" The matter waa set for hearing before the Magistrates of the county at Sullivan's Old 8 tat Ion on the first Tuesday in It was passed, h.wever, and in July. 178 Z.

Clarke. The Sheriff was not able to find Myers and on December of the same year judgment went against the defendant for 17. the amount of their Indebtedness to the Johnson estate. Mr. T.

Perkins, long since gene to that blessed land unquestionably reached and enjoyed by all lawyers, was the attorney for John Saunders, who instituted th fourth action against Clark, who seems, however, tot have been less in fault than hi eo-defeadant. Alexander Skinner. Now. John Saun ders was a famous hunter In his day and generation, while Mr. Skinner was a merchant of some repute In the nourishing town by the Falls.

In October, 1784, Clark and Skinner entered Into aa agreement with the famous Klmred, at least so Lawyer Perkins eloquently pleaded, whereby they were to furnish him three men, one packvhorse, and sufficient salt and ammunition "fort the purpose," aa Lawyer Perkins hath It In his yellow, faded, quaint brief In behalf of his client, "of making a. Hunt" Lawyer Perkins had a quaint waf of making a capital "procuring Beef, Bear meat. Bear's Oil. and Ventlou Hams and curing them In a proper manner for keeping sound and fit for tise during th winter and Spring." Huster John was to send th meat and oi to Mr ekinner in Louisville, where proper -disposition would be madeof them, the hunter to receive one-third the prtflt arising from the transaction in addition to one hundred pounds for his services. On his part, tbe hunter agreed to furnish one pack-horse and to asdst in building such boats as should be necessary for the enterprise.

Hunter John must have had, despite his powers aa a rifleman, a reputation for knowing bow to look after his own best interests, for in the agreement there was inserted an emphatic clause to th effect that said John engaged "not to spend his time In procuring snd curing skins, unlawfully." Lawyer Perkins tells feelingly tf how his client, after having made his preparation and started on his hunt, was dismissed by Mr. Skinner. The suit was for 200 pounds but unfortunately for Lawyer Skinner, If he was on a contingent fee, as well as for the redoubtable Hunter John. Mr. Skinner evaded the processes of the courts by shuffling off this mortal coil during the pendency of the action.

The, case waa then abated in 1785. i Lawyer Perkins wsi also counsel for the plaintiff in the next case in which Gen. Clark was defendant. Eli Cleveland, who had alreadr had two rounds with the soldier, again being a complainant against him. Although this action wa not filed until December 1785.

Cleveland's cause of action ac crued In 1781. Lawyer Perkins charges that Clark "with force A arms ao assault did make on the body of the sd. plaintiff, being then and there in the peace of the Commonwealth and him the sd plff. then and there with force and arms aa aforesaid falsely anl unjustly did Imprison him A him the sd pllt did keep In. confinement for the term of sixty days, A other enormities to him tho sd plff.

Nor was it in vain thnt he demanded it, for. after as many delaya aa would put modern Jus- i lice to shame, a Jury, of which James Cox was foreman, awarded him In June, ITS 7, a verdict for 150 pounds.

Perkins was doubtless Jubilant, hut a verdict for 150 pounds is very different from 160 Several writs were ieoued for Clark's appearance before "The Judges of our Supreme Court for the District of Kentucky at the Courthouse In Danville, Mercer county." Upon one of these is the Indorsement of Deputy Sheriff R. Eastin: "Executed Daniel Broad head Security for Keeping the Prison Bounds." Whether-or not Lawyer Perkins finally secured the 1M pounds for hla client the records at Danville will doubtless show. Oa February 26.

178. John Holker. assignee of Bartholomew Tardives u. filed two suits against Clark. The first wss for 900 damages for covenant broken.

Nothing more la told of the case except that on November 1788, Judsrment for costs wss entered. In the second action the plaintiff claimed that be had been damaged in me sum or it was alleged that on February 7. 1783. Gen. Clark had bound himxelf In writing "unto Bartholomew Tardiveau that he would make snd deliver him a Good A Law-full Deed for one tract of Land Situate the North fork of Licking creek with eight mile of the Ohio containing one thousand acres end one other tract situate on Rich Land Creek about ten miles from Bryan's Sta tion, containing five hundred acres." Tardiveau assigned the writing to Holker.

Who claimed that Clark refused to comply with th terms of It. The matter was thereupon placed in the hands of Attorney 8. Ormsby, who filed too suit. The action seems to have amounted to nothing, for this indorsement is found on the back of the statement filed by Attorney Ormsby, "Nov. Jgt for In each of these rases, Mr.

James Sullivan, one of the trustees 'the town, furnished bail for Gen. Clara. James Runels and James Egnew filed two suits against the veteran on March 10, 1787. Runels sued for a trifle over 7. for which he ultimately obtained Judgment, on an accepted order.

The latter is filed with tbe papers as sn exhibit. It laes follows: th 1 Day. 1788. "Buckner Plttman to James Runels, Dr. "To 2S Day a' work, at Day, 1 A "Sir pleas to pay the Abbove amount and oblige yours to Serve "BI'CKNER PITT MAX.

Mr. David Williams again became surety for Gen. Clark on a replevin bond on August 1. 1787, when Capt. James Winn, assignee of Eseklal How.

ell, had recovered a Judgment on a note, under which Deputy Sheriff Reuben Eastin again levied on "Sundry Goods and Chattels." The note is as follows: "For Value Received I promise to pay or Cause to ba paid unto Eseklal Howell or assigns, the Just and full Sum of four pounds four Shillinga Lawful money of Verga, on Demand as Witness my hand and Seal this 12th day of Sept. 17.

Allege! Interview With Senator Hayes Before the Con- 7 vention. Blunt Accusations of Treachery and Deceit Said to Have 7 Been Hurled At tho Leader (Baltimore dispatch to Philadelphia Press.) All Baltimore is talking of the awful tongue lashing that Senator Hayes gave Mr. Gorman when the tarter notified the assessment candidate that tie would have to withdraw.

Those who know 8enator Hayes and suspected Mr. Got-men's treachery were certain that the senior Senator would not get away without hearing Mr. Hayes' opinion of Mm. And to-day all that occurred leaked out. Senator Gorman held, hla final conference ta on of the rooms situated on tbe top floor of the Carroll ton.

In aa obscure corner of the House. Mr. Hayes wa sent for, and waa escorted thither by William P. May, tbe Benatora private secretary. He wa not taken up by the elevator, but the Journey was made in a roundabout way by privet staircase under strict orders of the Senator to Mr.

May. When tbe Secretary and Mr. Hayea at last reached th rendezvous they found seated, together with Senator Gorman, Spencer Jones and CoL John Walter Smith. No one else was present. Mr.

Gorman opened the conversation by saying: "I have sent for you, Hayes, to confer with you about tho party situation. find that a grave crisis confront us, and I want your advice aa to what, we shall do. The convention will meet under such circumstances that it la liable at any time during the session to be stampeded and Fisher nominated unless we act with promptness and nominate soma' one on the first ballot. Basin Is unalterably opposed to you a the nominee, and without his vote we can do nothing. I want you to withdraw for the ask of harmony.

Rasin insists on Hurst, and we shall havs to nominate him or else the convention will be stampeded, and no one can tell what will happen." For a moment Mr. Hayea said nothing. Then, slowly and deliberately, he be-Can, warming np his denunciations as he proceeded until he mad th littl room ring; Said be: "Do you think you can. fool the people into believing all Arthur Gorman I Do you think that they win believe for a moment that you. could not do as you wished with this convention, and have had me or any other man nominated, as well as John E.

Hurst, who hss always. been against the Issue on which we have fought and won this campaign? "Do you imagine for a. moment that any one will believe that you have been doing anything but deceiving them all the time 7 Why. you know that at least eight of the city delgates will leave Rasin and vote as you order. You know this Is aU true, and yet you bow to Rasin and allow him to sell the nomina tion and defy the popular will.

You have made mistakes before, and have recovered from their effect. From this you can never recover. You will drag down the party end bring it to defeat by your treachery.

The party can recover from Here Senator Gorman, who had become livid with rage and pale in turna, attempted to Interrupt Mr. Hayes, but th latter said: "No; 1 will hear nothing from you. I would believe nothing you could say. even it you swore to iu Arthur Gorman, 1 have stood up for you and defended you for years, when vou were attacked.
