The Rights of the Unfortunate Child Again Game Up for Discussion Before Be-fore the Bench' THE DIVORCE MILL GRINDS Out Two Decrees -Four Hoartt Beat as One -Proceedings in the Two District Dis-trict Courts- The luminaries of the supreme conrt put on their everyday mantles this morning, and the district court began to grind again. Juege Zane's chamber was the scene of considerable animation anima-tion and a large number of orders were entered. The leading matter was that of the revival or reopening of the celebrated Hla.ard will case, on a motion by Judge Rawlins to modify the decree recently re-cently handed down by him to conform to the decision of the United States supreme su-preme court in the case of the Cope heirship. Judge Dickson resisted the motion but said there would be, under the decision, de-cision, a motion for new trial In a number num-ber of cases. Mr. Varian stated that the motion for new trial would also be resisted. Further Fur-ther consideration of the matter went over. There are five cases affected by the recent decision and in each of these modification of the decree is asked. A new trial or an appeal to Washington would entail tremendous expense and this counsel on both sides is disposed to avoid if possible. Cljarlcs O. Whitmore, Esq., appeared and asked a decree of divorce in the case of Mary Ann Groves vs. John Groves. The complaint sets up that the parties solemnized an alliance in lHtitl under the service of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and that defendant at that lime was married mar-ried to Kliza Groves, who died in 1808. Since that time, or for a period of eighteen years, they have dwelt together. to-gether.

In the case of Sol M. Blumenkrohn vs. Mayor S. Ascheim, John A. Marshall, Mar-shall, esq., counsel for the defense, asked that tho default and judgment be set aside and that the defendant be allowed al-lowed time in which to file his answer. In support of the motion the illness of counsel's child was cited, and the court regarding this as good and sufficient cause for the failure to tile an answer in the required time the motion was sustained. Ilafora Judge Aodaraon. Judge Anderson was not in fine physical feather this morning when the hour arrived for the mills to grind. He has been suffering from pl-uruonary annoyances and in reality ought to have been at home in a dry room Instead In-stead of abroad upon a day that is productive pro-ductive of all sorts of bronchial and constitutional troubles. And it is well enough here to correct an error that was unintentionally made by the reporter re-porter in the matter of the new tilings against church possessions. Judge Anderson An-derson in referring to the matter did uot state that it was well known that "we" were after them but that "they" having reference to the prosecution were were observing their duties closely and vigilantly. The change of raonsylla-bles raonsylla-bles was'unfortunate as it unwittingly placed Judge Anderson in an attitude that he has never assumed. ' A family jar was iigain before Judge Anderson for adjustment and came up on tlio report of the referee, Mr. F. E. Barker, in the case of Edward Reading vs. Hannah S. Reading. A decree of separation was granted. In the case of Lawrenco Napier vs. D. C. McGregor the defendants were allowed until Feby. 10th to file an answer. |
