CongressniM Scranton has intro duced a bill providing for tho holding of sessions of the United Stales circuit court iu Scranton and forming a dis trict to bo composed of the counties of Lackawanna, Wayne, l'ikc, Monroe, Carbon, Susquehanna, Wyoming, Luz erne, Bradford and Columbia. Efforts in this district hnvo been mado for years and, as constant dropping wears iiway stones, so wo may expect that tho keeping of this question constant ly beforo Congress may result finally in the achievement of our purpose. The baH was set in motion by Hon. F. D. Collins"whcn he represented the Eleventh Congressional District and has been receiving fresh impetus at every session of Congress since. The Federal Government has already com mitted itself to tho erection of a build ing in Scranton which may bo mado to accomodate tho United States Court a well as the postoflice, and as a con sequence wo do not apprehend that tho setting up of a new district will meet with m much opposition as heretofore. Citizens of all parties wish success to Mr. Scranton in tho matter of seenring tho pasago of his bill. Scranlon Free l'rets.

The Presidential Succession, The law providing for the succession in case of the death or removal of the President of the United States, passed tho House last Friday, just as it came from the Senate. Tho voto in tho House was yeas 183, nays 77. Tho negative vote was cast by republicans and two democrats. Thirty-seven re publicans voted in the affirmative. What is known as tho Presidential Succession bill, and which now awaits tho signature of tho President to be come, a law, is a measure deviled orig inally by Senator Hoar, of Massachu setts, and introduced by him into tbo Senate, at tho last session of Congress. After some debate and a few uuimpor tant verbal amendments it was then passed by that body, but failed of act ion iu tho House. The death of Vice President Hendricks during tho in terim left Cougress in a frame of mind to guard against tho accidents of sud den fato in the matter of Presidential succession, and Mr. Hoar was early iu the field with his old measuro when Congress assembled iu December. After a short debato and the rejection of several proposed amendments it again passed tho Senato on Dec. 18 and went at nuco to tho House. After careful consideration in tho Judiciary Coramitteo of that body it was reported favorably to the House in precisely the shape it had passed the Senate. As in tho Senate, all at tempts at amendment were defeated in tho House, and after a two days' de bate it has been overwhelmingly pass ed. Introduced by a Republican Sen ator and receiving tho votes of thirty even Republican members of tho House, the bill cannot bo called a par tisan measure. lis object is to pro vide against all possible gaps or lapses in the Presidential ntlico until such time as Congress can mature mmiio tier fectly sound amendment ou tho subject to tho Constitution, Tho bill provides that when thcro is a vacancy in tho ollices of both Presi dent aud Vioc-Prciident the Cabinet officers shall succeed to tho Presidency in tho following order : Secretary of State, Secretary of tlie Treasury, Sec retary of War, Altornoy.General, Postmaster-General, Sccietary of the Navy and Secretary of the Interior, The Cabinet officer thus acting a President is to hold office until the dis ability of tho President or VicoPr! dent is removed, or until a now Presi dent is elected to succeed him at the id of the term of t'io President or Vice President whom lio succeed. Tho bill also authorized the acting President to call an extra seisiou of Congress within twenty days from tho time )m assumes tho duties of his office, should tho regular meeting of Congress not oocur within that time. WASHINGTON LETTER. (From our lletruLir Correspondent.!, Wasiiisotos. I). 0., Jan. 19, 18S0. The proceedings of tho week on Capitol Hill have been varied, inter esting, and fraught with results in the lower branch ol Congress. 1 he sen ato did little elsoin open session than listen to endless irrelevant talk on the Silver question, irrelevant, because no tinftucial measuro was iornnlly pre sented to that body until to day. Six Senators mado long set rpecehes in advocacy ol continued coinage, another crowded hi an oration in ben flit ot National Monuments to Lincoln and Grant, and another expended eloquence ou tho mbject of our Army. In its daily secret sessions the Senato has had beforo it the President's nomi nations, hundreds of which havo been confirmed. No cause of complaint has been found against tho nominees themselves in regard to their honesty, fitness and efficiency, and tho Republican Senators, in lieu of any such grievance, havo been discussing in caucus the question of disciplining the President on the subject ot tenure ol ollicc1 Unable to express themselves freely ou this subject in Executive session without exposing their plans to tho opposition, the leaders of tho Republican majoritv quietly convoyed tho news to their associates that they must nerco to a motion adjourninc over from last Thursday to Monday, in order that a caucus might bo held on an important subject. Ut courso tho Democrats did not know what was browing, and the proposed motion was caaied. In this caucus, the President's policy was tho subject of debate, and the mora pronounced disciplinarians, such as Logan, Hoar, Conger, and Morrill, advocated reining up the President to compel him to stato to tho Senato his reasons tor removing one set ot ollicials to mako room for others of his own party. Some of the moro fairminded Senators held that'it would be going too lar to ask ot tho L resident an ex planation of his right to select his own mends to bll tho othces lor which his party had fought so hard, and that ho was only doing what a Republican President would do, if one were in tho White House. This kind of argument was very distasteful to tlie Republican manarrs, and they proceeded to dis cipline their obstinate brethren in u causlio way that won them over, or at least compelled them to submission. While a variety of opinions were ex pressed with recard to the rironrietv of raising a form il issuo with the Ad- ininiBiruiiou iii present upon mis ques tion, a majority were disposed to say that should the information sought not bo forthcoming ultimately, the Repub licans in the Senato will tako some formal action to secure it, or an avowal from Mr. Cleveland that ho wilt not give his. reasons for making removals. I hero aro many Republicans in tho House of Repreaenatives who would - like to seo all the Republican office holders discharged indiscriminately. Their reason for this is that their party machinery is bemc disorganized by the present stato of affairs. Many of their party workers received appointments to office as rewards for party service, and as long as they letain their places under the present Adminstration, thoir hands are tied in a way to make them use-less for party work. Among other bills to abolish the Civil Service law that havo been intro duced in tho House was one by Repre- ennative Seney, of Ohio. N. suun bin can pass mo aenatc white the itep ublicans have control of it. They affect devotion to civil service reform and tho so-called spirit of it, and will continue to do so as long as tho act can bo made useful in keeping Demo crats out of office and in bothering the Democratic party. Then again thero aro many shrewd Democrats in both brandhes of Congress, who would deem it unwise to repeal tho Civil Service law and who see good politics iu let ting it stand as it is, though, of course, tho question will bo agitated like that of silver all through tho session. Tho House of Representatives was commondably industrious in disposing of tho Presidential Succession bill, which has passed without change, just as it came from tho Senate. Under its provisions the line of succession is taken from Congress and lodged in tho Cabinet. Only tho President's signa ture is lackiug to make it the law, nnd then Mr. Bayard and not Mr. Sherman will bo Vice President of tho United States. A startling visitationiof death has just darkened tho homo of tho Secretary of State, and tho genial, graceful, homelike hospitality characteristic of tho Bayard Mansion will be hidden under tho shadows of bereavement for tho remainder of thu season. Miss Catherine Bayard, tho eldest daughter of tho Secretary, died suddonly on Saturday afternoon of heart disease. The Sontk Penn Case. Till! INJUNCTION AflAlNST TUB PP.NN8VI. VANIA MAI'K lTHMANKNT, The opinions in tho South Pennsyl vania Railroad nnd Beech Cieek liti gation, instituted by tho Attorney General some months ago, havo been hnuded down in tho Dauphin county court. Tho opiuion iu the South Pennsylvania case was written by Judge Sinonton, It continues tho in junction restraining tho Pennsylvania Railroad Company, the Pennsylvania Company and the Bedford and 15ridge port Railroad Company from purchase lug tho South Pennsylvania, but dis solves it so far as tbo other defendants, who wero mentioned in tho bill in equity to mako it complete, aro con cerned. The South Pennsylvania Railroad Company is among tho de fendants. After reviewing tho pro ceeding instituted by thu Attornoy General to prevent tho Pennsyvlania Railroad Company from absorbing tho South Pennsylvania Railroad and the evidence relativo to the negotia tions betw.-en Pennsylvania Railroad officials and Pierrcpout Morgan, a Now York banker, Judge Simonton, iu his opinion, declares that tho Pennsyl. vania Railroad Company was tho real party iu tho transactionato obtain con trol of thu South Pennsylvania. "It is impossible," says the Judge, "to draw any oilier inference that any titlo to any stock or securities intended to bo hold in the namo of tho Pennsylvania Comp.iuv was to bo a meio naked title to bo held In trust. In other words, that tho Pennsylvania Railroad Com. pany intended to do in fact what it tenreii it was lorbuiden by Jaw to do and therefore attempted to glvo tho transaction the apptarnice in tho eye of tho law of being other than it really was. This of course cannot avail In a court of pqi'ily, which looks at sub Mnneo without being controlled by form. Tli j pie of counsel fur tho Pennsylvania Railroad Company that even if tho corporation bo tho real party to the contract it has not done or stipulated for anything prohibited by the Constitution, for trio reason that tho purchase of tho stock of a 'parallel or competing lino' is not a montr tho thlnrrs prohibited, is met b the declaration that 'it is too plain to bear nrgumcnt that tho ownership ot jno biock ot n corporation carries will U tho control of tho corporation.' " Tho Court says it is unable to adopt the iew of tho defendants that "the fact of tho traffic contracts should not bo taken into consideration and that as tho lino of tho South Pennsylvania does not itself extend to PittBburg, wo must conclude that tho corporation does not own or control a parallel or competing line." As to tho nrgument of tho defendants that tho South Penn sylvania was Lot in competition with any other road becauso it lias only been partially constructed, tho Court holds that tho' word "line" in tho provision forbidding any railroad cor poration to in "any way control any other railroad corporation having under its control a parallel or competing line,'' was employed ad visedly aud that it denotes tho routo ot an intended railroad. 'Tho purpose undoubtedly was to promoto cotnpe. titiou in railroad traffic." "During tho argument counsel in voked tho aid of tbo undoubted tren- cral principle that tho ownership of shares of stock, as of other propeitv carries wan u tuo legal right to sen, and contended that tho owners of thu shares of tho South Pennsylvania uailroad Uompany could not legally be restrained irotn so doing, and that an injunction against tho purchase would havo this effect. Wo do not think tho prnciplo applies to this ease. Wo ara not ualled upon to express any upimuu as iu uie ri!n' t iro niiuvici ual sharcholdeis to mil their i-overal : : ... L. . r .1 . . ;.. ., shares bonafido iu tho open market This, so far as they are concerned, i3 au intended sale in combination lor tho express purpose of enabling them to abandon the rights nnd dunes con ferred and imposed upon them by tho act incorporating tho company and of putting the control of their corporation into tho hands of its lival. This is nil act contrary to tho public policy of the State, which they have no right to 10. "But as our nurposo here is to show merely that the parties to this trans. action were not dealing with a purely private matter wo will not pursno this subject further, nor ore we now con cerned with tho question whether there be power in the courts to compel tho construction of a railroad by a corpo ration which has undertaken it. What wo here decide is simply that tho corporators have no such right to sell their stock as can in any way in- tericro with tho granting ot an injunc tion to prevent a competing corpora tion from obtaining control of thu corporation charged with the duties of its construction." Tho opinion of Judtre McPherson in the Beech Creek case continues tho injunction against tho Pennsylvania Railroad and Northern Central Rail road Companies, restraining them from buying the Beech Creek Rail road, and dissolves it as to the other defendants in the case. Tho South Penn and Beech Creek Railroad people can disno.se of their interests in their lines, but it must bo to others than the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, Bridgeport and Bedford and Northern Central Railroad Companies, who aro prohibited from buying.
